Emotional intelligence is a collection of competencies allowing to :

Identify our own emotions and those of others;
Accurately express our emotions and help others express theirs;
Understand our own emotions and those of others;
Manage our own emotions and adapt  to those of others;
Use our own emotions and the skills peculiar to emotional intelligence in various areas of our lives in order to better communicate, make good decisions, manage our priorities, motivate ourselves and others, maintain good interpersonal relations, et cetera.

One of the key roles of the emotionally intelligent teacher is to stimulate his students’ emotional competencies. You may recall an important : the true learning process takes place when we feel and not when we understand. The teacher will, therefore, have to implement ways to allow the students to feel what they are learning. These ways will have to involve the stimulation of the left prefrontal lobes so as to maximize the students’ emotional well-being. Consequently, the teacher will be able to enable and stimulate all of the students’ emotional competencies.

In the same way our emotions can affect our intellectual and cognitive faculties, they can also improve our learning and make it more efficient and enjoyable.
