The purpose of this study was to examine student teachers' satisfaction in secondary student teaching. Subjects comprised 482 secondary student teachers who enrolled in teacher education as senior. Data based on demographic information were analyzed using frequency, percent, mean, and standard deviation. Also independent t-test and confirmatory factor analysis were utilized for data analysis. Results showed that there were no statistically significant differences on environment, time, and guidance in sex, but there were statistically significant differences in teaching physical education between middle and high school(t=-3.830, p<.05). High group in which student teachers appraised for environment, time, and guidance showed more satisfaction than low group in teaching physical education(t=10.868, p<.05). High group in which student teachers appraised for teaching physical education indicated more satisfaction than low group in evaluation(t= 6.978, p<.05). Thus, there is a need for improving environment, time, and guidance and collaboration between university and secondary school.
