The article presents the results of the pilot study of ambition self-evaluation of preschool teachers. The pilot study of ambition selfevaluation of preschool teachers was conducted by the original questionnaire "Ambition self-evaluation." The study involved 48 preschool teacher aged 37-55 with 11-32 years of work experience. The study of ambition self-evaluation and its degrees showed that the preschool teachers consider themselves ambitious, or rather ambitious people, less than a fifth of the preschool teachers do not consider themselves to be rather unambitious, none of the preschool teachers considers himself an unambitious person and part of the preschool teachers, a little more than 10%, found it difficult to answer this question. The preschool teachers have determined their degrees of ambition as following: a high degree of ambition was noted by 45.1% of preschool teachers, medium - 31%, low - 23.9%. The preschool teachers who consider themselves ambitious, note the medium and high degrees of ambition. The preschool teachers who consider themselves rather ambitious, note low, medium and high degrees (mainly high and medium). The preschool teachers who consider themselves rather unambitious, noted the low and medium degrees of ambition. All preschool teachers who do not consider themselves ambitious, considered themselves as people with low degree of ambition or absolutely unambitious. The preschool teachers who found it difficult to evaluate themselves, note the medium degree of ambition. Thus, the majority of the preschool teachers consider themselves ambitious people and evaluate their ambition as medium (moderate) or high.
