Summary/Abstract: Communication between people or groups is one of the most complex human processes. It is so important and useful to human existence that without its understanding we cannot have access to the understanding of the individual and the social structures. From a psychological perspective, communication is a dynamic and complex phenomenon, which involves the simultaneous development of several psychological processes and functions, used for the interaction, through the exchange of messages between two subjects. It can be, at the same time, a human need or a source of conflict and dissatisfaction in interpersonal relationships. Ability to speak is characterized by: clear and concise expression, well-chosen words and expressions, direct expression, logic and no exaggeration; all matched with the ideas presented. Communication contributes to the coherence and logic of group and team formation processes, the exteriorization of emotions, perceptions and expectations, so that we can, on the one hand, achieve our personal goals and, on the other hand, live together harmoniously at the social level. The ability to communicate is a very broad concept, often studied and often overlaid on interpersonal skills. Researches in the field highlight various abilities, so the purpose of the research was to investigate aspects specific to educational communication, which are supporting factors or barriers in the teacher-student relationship. The main objective was to investigate the perception of primary school teachers about the current level of development of their own communication skills required by didactic work through in-depth interviews.
