Abstract

Teachers play a crucial role in the process of education and teaching. Teachers' psychological and physical health are the keys to the quality of education. However, with the acceleration of the informatization process, people's opportunities for face-to-face communication are gradually lacking, and virtual expressions on social media have become the main way for people to convey their emotions. As an important educational resource, teachers' social-emotional ability itself should not be used. Ignore. At the same time, with the development of education reform in our country, people gradually realize that teachers' identification with their profession is related to teachers' work attitude and cognition of their profession. Therefore, it is urgent to study the relationship between teachers' social-emotional competence and professional identity. Based on this, this paper uses the mediating variable of self-efficacy to study the influence of teachers' social-emotional ability on professional identity to provide an empirical basis for further improving teachers' overall teaching ability and professional quality.
