13.01.2022 Growing Children’s Emotional Intelligence with Melissa Strader Friday, October 5, 2018 - 09:00am Young people with well-developed emotional intelligence (EQ) earn higher grades, stay in school for longer and make healthier choices. In fact, emotional intelligence is a greater predictor of a child’s overall success in later years (relationships, career, health, general effectiveness and quality of life) than their IQ (Intelligence Quotient). What that means is that regardless... of a child’s IQ, it is crucial for parents and teachers to help children build their emotional intelligence. Join Melissa as she explains what emotional intelligence is; why we need it and how we get it. Go to : https://www.qagtc.org.au//growing-childrens-emotional-inte for bookings
