EQ vs Technical - Which do you remember?
I was relating back to my experiences as student over the years and began to think about those instructors that had the most impact on my life, or that I had fond memories about. Interestingly enough, it’s those that had high EQ. I’m not use about the technical skills, since as the student it’s hard for me to measure, though the soft skills are readily apparent. I we expect good feedback, and customer satisfaction; we need to assure this skill is present.
Mitchel,
Most likely because they are relateable and we look for connections to people.

I consistently learned more from teachers with a high EQ vs the ones that only had high technical abilities
"EXPECTATIONS" I we expect good feedback, ridiculous
WHAT IF THE FEEDBACK IS NOT WHAT YOU EXPECT, WHAT THEN?
just because you do not hear what you want to hear does not necessarily mean that the feedback is invalid.
soft skills, hard skills, Emotional intelligence (EQ) are so closely tied together in many instances that the differences can be very subtle,
what is the best answer? when all answers seem to be very relevant.
Steven,
All great points, thanks for sharing.
