Media Reviews
Baham and Maffini use a series of narrative examples to illustrate how important both teacher and pupil EQ can be for learning to most effectively take place. The book as a whole is very readable and an excellent resource for teachers new to the concept of emotional intelligence, and who are wishing to gain practical examples of how they could develop both their own and their pupils' emotional intelligence.
