Abstract :
This study was conducted to investigate the possible relationship between English language teachers' teaching efficacy and English teachers' multiple intelligences. an‎d also it was a probe into whether English teachers scored differently in different dimensions of intelligence. 101 participants took part in this study. They were asked to fill out the two related questionnaires i.e. multiple intelligences known as MIDAS consisting of 116 items and teaching efficacy including 24 items scored based on a likert scale ranging from 1 to 9. Based on the results of the study, it could be concluded that the linguistic and musical intelligences are the two main predictors of teachers' teaching efficacy whereas the other domains of intelligence, although intercorrelated, are not significantly contributing to the construct of teachers' teaching efficacy.
