The present study explored self-effi cacy beliefs of English as Foreign Language teachers in the language centres in one selected middle-east country, Iran. The needed data was collected by administering a survey to 187 teachers. The Teacher Sense of Effi cacy Scale was used to assess effi cacy for engagement, management, and instructional strategies. Results show that teachers’ perceived effi cacy correlate with some of teachers’ background characteristics. Results also indicate that teachers’ classroom management effi cacy was higher than instructional strategies and student engagement effi cacy.
