It feels Cool to be Cool

I’ve been teaching part time for more than a month now, but last Saturday was my first time (again) to be evaluated by the students.
The students were supposed to give comments and suggestions to my teaching style. When I was new, I used to receive a comment that I was talking too fast. Eventually, however, I learned to establish rapport with students and to interact with them. I learned to engage them in a discussion where everybody would feel free to say anything they have in mind.
When I read my evaluation result this weekend, I smiled when I saw comments such as excellent, the best teacher and funny among the most common. But what I liked most of all was the comment by the student that I was the coolest..
For some reasons, I felt so happy. And I kept thinking about it until I got home. I kept thinking what I did that one or two of the students thought I was cool? Whatever it was, well, maybe I should do it more often, lol! :D
What is it about being ‘cool’ that that’s what we want to be?
