Abstract
The ultimate aim of this study is to determine the moderating effect of openness to experience on the relationship between emotional intelligence and teaching competency of teachers in Caraga Region. Adapted survey questionnaires were given to a sample of 400 teachers from various schools in the region. Findings revealed that the level of emotional intelligence is high, teaching competency is very high and the level of openness to experience is high. Further, findings revealed that emotional intelligence is significantly related to teaching competency, emotional intelligence also showed a positive significant relationship to teaching competency. To determine the moderating effect of openness to experience, a logistic hierarchical regression was employed in this study. Results revealed that openness to experience demonstrated a significant moderating effect on the relationship between emotional intelligence and teaching competency. Teachers who have higher openness to experience have higher level of emotional intelligence and teaching competency. With these three Constructs as support system, superior performance and competitiveness among the teachers may be expected
