It was hypothesized that there exists a relationship between emotional intelligence and self efficacy. Correlation research design was used. Emotional Intelligence Scale by Schutte et al. (1998) and Teacher’s Self-efficacy Scale by Schwarzer and Jerusalem (1981) were used to measure the variables. The non probability purposive sampling technique was used on the basis of availability of the teachers. Sample consisted of 80 male and female teachers, 40 from government colleges and 40 from private colleges of Lahore. Correlation analysis showed that there is significant positive correlation between emotional intelligence and self efficacy.
