High School Soft Skills: Activities for Future Success

“Old bamboos shoot forth new ones,” today’s high school students are the future owners of the country. Besides equipping them with knowledge, it is essential to cultivate soft skills for them to confidently step into life. So, how are soft skills activities currently conducted in high schools? Let’s explore together!

From my early days in high school, I participated in many beneficial extracurricular activities organized by the school, such as the English club and the soft skills club. I remember most vividly participating in the “Teamwork Skills Training” program organized by the school. We were divided into groups, overcoming challenges and completing tasks together. That day of learning was tiring but full of laughter, and most importantly, I learned valuable lessons about teamwork, unity, and problem-solving abilities.

## The Role of Soft Skills Activities in High School

As our homeroom teacher once said, “Grades are not everything.” Indeed, besides the knowledge in books, soft skills are the baggage that accompanies us throughout life.

Soft skills activities play an extremely important role for high school students. They help students:

  • Perfect themselves: Practicing communication, behavior, and problem-solving skills helps them become more confident in life.
  • Develop comprehensively: Participating in collective and social activities helps them develop comprehensively both physically and mentally.
  • Orient their careers: Exposure to different industries and fields through extracurricular sessions and career guidance programs helps them orient their future careers.
