Bạn tham khảo đoạn hội thoại viết về 3 kĩ năng này nhé!

A: Hey, B. Becoming an independent person is necessary. If you want to be independent, which of the skills are the most important for you?

B: Well, I really want to be an independent student so I have thought about these skills.

A: What is the first skill?

B: Transportation skills.

A: Why do you think transportation skills are one of the most important ones?

B: Just because you have a driver's license doesn't mean you necessarily have transportation skills. Teens need to know how to get from point A to point B. That may mean knowing how to navigate through rush hour or understanding how to use a GPS.

A: Oh, I see. But not all teens know how to drive nor have a driver's license.

B: Yes, right. In those cases, it's important for teens to know how to use public transportation.

A: I agree with you. What about the next skill?

B: Well, it maybe goal setting skills.

A: Right. It is very important.

B: Whether you want to lose weight or you are interested in working your way up the corporate ladder, goal setting skills are essential.

A: Exactly. Working on goal setting skills often. We should identify one thing we want to achieve and then keep on making it happen.

B: That’s what I’m gonna tell you.

A: So… the last one?

B: Emotion regulation skills.

A: Why are they important?

B: If we can't control our temper, we won't handle setbacks well. Or, if we can't cope with anxiety, we may never step outside our comfort zone.

A: I totally agree with you.
