Abstract: This study aims to investigate the effect of teachers' emotional intelligence levels on their political skills. In this study, the data were collected by a questionnaire applied to 402 teachers working in high schools affiliated to Provincial Directorate of National Education in Artuklu, the central district of Mardin province.
