The research The role of the teacher in the strengthening of emotional intelligence in four-year-old children of initial education has as general objective to identify the contribution of teachers to the strengthening of emotional intelligence in four-year-old children from the didactic practice, to Based on this information, design a pedagogical intervention proposal that makes it easier for teachers to strengthen the emotional intelligence of their students. For the field study, a qualitative design was proposed that included interviews with the three teachers of the degree, an observation for three discontinuous periods of the teachers' practice and the application of a psychometric scale to assess the emotional development of infants. It was determined that the teaching practice does not contribute significantly to the emotional development of infants because activities aimed at that end are not carried out frequently enough. The scale determined that 60% of girls and 50% of boys have a high level of emotional development, and that 19% of girls and 29% of boys have a low level of emotional development. The investigation concludes with the design of an intervention proposal that includes ten activities designed to strengthen the emotional intelligence of four-year-old children.
