Emotional Intelligence
Course summary
Lisbon, Portugal
7-day Course
Erasmus+ KA1
Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand, use, and manage one´s own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. This competence has a surprisingly powerful effect on our lives, from our capacity to foster long-term relationships with friends to whether we’re able to succeed in school.
Managing our emotions as well as understanding others’ is vital when interacting within both the professional day to day with colleagues, students, parents and society.
Since 2020 that we are facing a global pandemic which caused a huge intrusion in all relationships. And between teachers and students too. While teaching was already a challenging profession, COVID-19 has pushed aside some of the heartwarming, relational positives of teaching and replaced them with stress and e-learning teaching.
