Details This paper presents the findings of a quantitative study that examined the
following main research questions: 1) Do EFL teachers generally believe
they are better teachers than most of their colleagues? 2) Do EFL
teachers, when comparing themselves to their colleagues, rate their
teaching skills more highly than skills that are not directly related to
teaching? 3) Do EFL teachers think they are less likely than other
teachers are to overrate their own teaching ability?
