Evaluation and Development of Students’ Emotional Competence

The Emotional Dimension in Becoming a Teacher

“…Corcoran and Tormey ( 2012 ) measured the emotional intelligence of 352 Irish student teachers, concluding that their scores were lower than average, but with important inter-individual differences.
