This article discusses the listening of teachers in research in the Early Childhood Education field. What does it mean to listen to teachers in research? Further seeking to reflect on this issue, is the text also intend to discuss ethical, theoretical, and methodological challenges regarding to listening to the Early Childhood teacher, dialoguing about the act of listening in the light of studies by Paulo Freire (1996) and Levinas (1980). It is a theoretical nature text which weaves dialogues with the thinking of these two authors. Freire (1996) points out listening as a political act that opens the way to talk to the other; and Levinas (1980), when discussing the ethics of alterity, presents relevant theoretical contributions to understand what is to listen to others. Listening is a complex human action, and in the context of Early Childhood Education context, increasingly requires a patient and critical listening from the researcher. The study concluded that the act of listening in the research goes beyond the bureaucratic ritual of the production of material in the empirical field and asks for ethics in the production of relationships based on differences.
