The interview questions related to the ESOL teachers' professional duties, wellbeing, workplace wellbeing, and emotion labour in ESOL teaching. Transcripts 1,2,3, and 4 are the pilot interview files and Transcripts 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 are the main study interview files. An approach to transcription and redaction file has also been provided for this dataset.
