Life skills class has increased the level of confidence in me. It has also developed the ability to influence people by effective communication and body language. This class gave me the opportunity to come forward and speak in front of the whole class which I never did before as confidently as now. It eliminated stage fear in me. It also developed in me the art of dealing with the people at individual and group level. The learning in this class supported in other domain related subjects like making presentations, working with the class mates as a team.
Life skills class is the most interesting class as we learn through activities. This fun learning does not make us feel as we are learning but brings about the change in us slowly. I have seen that change happening in my non- verbal communication and body language. I have learnt time management by assigning priorities to the work. The major change is the reduction in the time i spent on playing PUB-G which I learnt during one of the discussions held in class. I have developed confidence in verbal expression. Leadership skills are another thing that i have learnt as the outcome of the project being assigned to us in the group.
Life Skills sessions are full of interactive activities that helped me to learn time management, public speaking and expressing my views, ideas and emotions in English. I was not able to communicate in English before joining TeamLease Skills University. Thanks to life skills department now I am able to confidently speak, read and write in English. I overcome my shyness and now able to speak to strangers without any hesitation due to effective teaching techniques.
‘Life Skills’, the motto of the department lies in the name itself. It focuses on the skills that are helpful in real life. The skills that helps students to shape their prosperous career with peaceful life. It includes behavioral skills, soft skills, body language, presentation skills etc. It improves the skills that plays a pivotal role in shaping up the career of any professionals. I am grateful to have such creative and enthusiastic teachers who provided guidance and support throughout the course and always lead by example.
Life skills programmes have proliferated around the world. Little is known about the efficacy and effectiveness of these programmes on individual behavior and attitude. This programme helped me to expand my vision and experience the unexplored aspects of life. This programme is ‘Velocity of Money’ in the context of investment in an asset that we would get returns in the form of knowledge, grooming, body language. It helped me to gain many experiences throughout 6 semesters of BBA.
In our Life Skills department, we enjoy the different activities like drama, role play, debate, Quiz, Group discussion, assignment, presentation, etc. which enhance our confidence level. When I joined TLSU, I could not talk in English. But now I am able to speak in English very well. My general knowledge has also increased by daily news writing and reading. I also learn how to manage time. My presentation skills have been improved.
Before joining TLSU, I could not understand English. When I joined TLSU, I came to know about Life-Skills. Life-Skills plays an important role in my life as my Speaking, Writing, Listening & Reading abilities have been improved. Also these skills, concepts, new thoughts have showed me a new path to optimize my strengths. In TLSU, I learn new things everyday..... I also have been able to remove my stage fear and stand in front of the class with confidence & elegance. In today's scenario, we must develop/maximize our personality & job skills, because, according to me, it teaches Motivation, Leadership, Time Management, Equality, and Sharing. Now, I'm able to talk in English with full confidence. Our teacher always motivates and supports us by showing motivational videos or presentations, etc. For me, "END means NOT AN END", in fact "END means EFFORT NEVER DIES".
“I learn new things every day in Life Skills classes. I have built up the confidence to speak in front of a crowd. We learn through activities, presentations, lectures, by watching motivational videos, etc. It also helps me learn how to make major decisions about life. Recently, we got a task - visit to mall and get information about it. It was really very interesting with the help of these types of tasks we learn how to behave, how to communicate, how to work in team, leadership, etc. Every Friday we play games like mind games, spell games & learn new things in a fun way.”
