Abstract
In this study the global and personal emotional metaphors about themselves as teachers and student learning are discussed. The sample consists of 45 students of Psychopedagogy degree in 5th year from the Faculty of Education, University of Extremadura, during the year 2012/2013. The method of data collection was an open questionnaire. For analysis, the metaphors are framed in the four categories of Leavy, McSorley and Boté (2007):transmissive behavioral, cognitive-constructivist, situated, and self-referential. The results indicate that there is coherence between general metaphors for the teacher and learning. In both cases the greatest number of metaphors belong to the cognitive / constructivist category, and situated at the lower. In the emotional the greatest number of metaphors belong to the self-referential category, followed by cognitive / constructivist, reversing the order of these two categories for emotional learning metaphors.
