  to measure greatness of one’s 
  life childhood. For that, one study has been carried out to investigate the 
  emotional intelligence of hearing problem children in school. Low emotional 
  intelligence involves four constructs escort namely, motivation, handling emotions 
  and social skills. This study aims to look at differences in emotional intelligence 
  of children with hearing problems on demographic factors, relationship between 
  level of emotional intelligence with academic achievement and the level of behavioral 
  problems of children with hearing problems. This study involves surveys and 
  questionnaires as an instruments. Questionnaires are emotional intelligence 
  evaluation, academic achievement and behavioral problems in school that was 
  administered by teachers to assess children with hearing problems (n = 148) 
  in primary schools in Johor. The findings were analyzed using descriptive statistics 
  and inferential statistics. The study showed that the level of emotional intelligence 
  of children with hearing problems are at a moderate level (mean = 3.32). The 
  study also showed that 35% of children with hearing problems have a high level 
  of emotional intelligence, 56% moderate and 9% low. Other than that there was 
  no significant difference in emotional intelligence based on gender and type 
  of school placement. Instead, there is a significant difference in emotional 
  intelligence based on factors of the school year. The study also showed significant 
  relationship between level of emotional intelligence with the level of academic 
  achievement and level of behavioral problems in school. Overall, these findings 
  can provide the instructions to the special education teachers to improve the 
  quality of teaching and learning process and to enhance disclosure of emotional 
  intelligence to children with hearing problems in primary school.
