      Hello

      Decent attempt, however mention working definition of social intelligence to start with- Social intelligence (SI) is the ability of a person to tune into other people’s emotions and read the
      subtle behavioral cues to choose the most effective response in a given situation. It aids people to
      successfully build relationships and navigate social environments.
      Explanation is fine, examples are okay too..give example of issues in Covid 19 and how both EI and SI can help to tackle them.
      Also, you can mention that social intelligence is superset of emotional intelligence and talk about some qualities each of these help to develop..EI- self-control, innovation, resilience, personal agility etc; SI- conflict management, communication, leadership, teamwork etc
      Write a concluding statement.
      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Decent attempt. Introduction is good.
      Points in interdependence are fine but some points look like way forward..that is we should have both etc..mention that social intelligence is superset of emotional intelligence. You can give example of empathy – if we are emotionally intelligent we will have empathy towards others but that alone may not be sufficient..to build rapport with the other person we must have SI too that is how to react..how to behave etc
      Elaborate the Covid 19 example a bit..you have just mentioned the issues…mention how EI and SI can help in dealing with those issues.
      Also you can mention some qualities each of these help to develop..EI- self-control, innovation, resilience, personal agility etc; SI- conflict management, communication, leadership, teamwork etc
      Differences are good..in 2nd point you have written vice versa..SI helps in developing interpersonal skills.
      Conclusion is fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
