Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between Iranian EFL teachers’ sense of self-efficacy and their gender. The research is a quantitative study in which the data is obtained to get a great understanding on the relationship between self-efficacy of Iranian English as Foreign Language (EFL) teachers and teachers’ gender.
