This article examines the role of a teacher’s emotional intelligence and its influence on the effectiveness of the learning process. Emotional intelligence encompasses the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one’s own emotions as well as those of others, which is essential for creating a positive and trusting educational environment. Research indicates that teachers with high emotional intelligence foster a supportive and motivating atmosphere, enhancing students’ engagement and participation.
Moreover, emotional intelligence enables teachers to cope effectively with stress, resolve interpersonal conflicts, and maintain open communication. These skills contribute to students’ academic achievement, emotional well-being, and overall quality of education. The article emphasizes that modern teaching requires not only professional expertise but also well-developed emotional capacities.
Teachers act as leaders and role models, guiding students while managing both their own and their students’ emotions. Developing teachers’ emotional intelligence is therefore crucial for improving the learning process, promoting cooperation, and fostering a productive and empathetic classroom environment.
