Introduction: 1

 

There are a lot of skills that I wish to learn. However, there is one skill which I know

well and I am able to teach others. That is the ‘mindful breathing skill’. Mindful

breathing is a very basic yet powerful meditation technique. The idea is to simply

focus your attention on your breathing, to its natural rhythm and flow and the way

it feels on inhaling and exhaling. This skill is becoming more and more popular due

to its countless advantages.

I leant this skill two years ago, in my practical yoga class from my yoga teacher. The

purpose of this skill is to concentrate on the present moment, so that we can let go

of worrying about the past and the future. Such breathing technique reduces

anxiety, helps with pain reduction, manages stressful thoughts and decreases

negative thinking. It is a useful, powerful and life changing skill.

I can teach this skill personally by demonstrating to a small group about the different

ways of mindful breathing. I do not need any equipment for it. I can teach this in a

garden or in a classroom. It is also possible to teach this skill online. I have also made

my videos to teach this skill to my friends who are away and I can’t meet them. I

can teach practical as well as explain the theoretical benefits of mindful breathing.

I have taught this to many.

Whenever I practice this skill myself I feel relaxed and rejuvenated. I have learnt to

let go and forgive others. My faith in God is reassured and I feel positive and happier

than before. I feel that, I should teach this skill to as many people as I know so that

more people can get benefits of this skill as well. I also believe that this skill should

be taught in the school so that children can learn to manage their tensions and

tough emotions. I feel lucky that I know this skill.

Well, there are ample skills that I have learnt in my life, from which some are driving, swimming, cooking. I opine that these skills are really in need of an hour. As nowadays youth has to travel long distance either to study or in search of jobs. Therefore, it becomes mandatory for an individual to know their skills as essential for survival and make a person independent. 

What is it? 
One skill that I would love to teach is cooking. The first reason behind it is that lam a foodie, and I enjoy having and cooking different cuisines. 

How did you learn it?
I learned this skill from various sources, but the basics were definitely explained to me by my mother as she has excellent culinary skills. 

How can you teach others this skill? 
Honestly, currently, I do not have any such plans to teach to others, but if I do in the future, then I would have numerous platforms due to the advancement of technology, and I think Youtube will be my choice as it has the vast audience and I can come in contact with more people in less time. 

How do you feel about this skill? 
Most importantly, it also provides a chance to earn, which is, I think, a great advantage. Moreover, its a fact that to establish anything new, finances play a vital role, whereas hearing a person just needs a smartphone to shoot and upload the video. 

Conclusion: 
So, this is a skill that I can teach to others.

In this contemporary epoch having specialisation in a skill can do wonders for you. It could open a plethora of opportunities for you. I have expert knowledge of a skill that I could teach others.

What is it? How did you learn it?

The skill is driving, and I learnt it from my father. My family is full of travelling enthusiasts. We have this uncanny knack for going to offbeat places. And on numerous occasions, we have travelled more than 1,000 miles in a day.

During these trips, I used to watch my father driving from very close. Gradually, I had learnt the basics of driving, and seeing my interest in driving, my father handed over the steering to me.

Now, whenever my family goes on a trip, I drive the car.

How can you teach others this skill?

My father specially designed a car to teach me to drive. I can use that car to teach others.

How do you feel about this skill?

In my opinion, driving is an important skill to learn. Without it, you are at the mercy of others for going from one place to another.

It helps you in many ways. First of all, you save time and money because you need not wait for a cab or bus to reach your destination. Moreover, you can save commuting time because you can plan your journey as per your wish.

Since I can drive with tremendous ease on not only plains but also hills, I believe that I have the potential to become a renowned driving instructor.

With determination, dedication and discipline, I have learned how to repair a computer. Initially, I used to fix hardware issues, however now I can tackle software issues too.

There are umpteen issues with the computer that it is a herculean task to make a list of all. It is a daunting task to become an expert at it. To achieve proficiency in this skill, I need to go beyond the conventional domain to carve out a niche for myself.

How Do You Feel About This Skill And How Can You Teach Others This Skill?

In this era of digitalisation providing, skills-based training to others is an easy task. I will give both online and offline classes to impart knowledge.

Online classes will be for those who can not come to the institute due to a shortage of time or any other reason.

I will teach it interactively so that students can quickly grasp the information.

I feel that that imparting knowledge of computers would make me a better version of myself.

What Is It? How Did You Learn It?

Of course, I am not able to fix all kinds of computer problems just like an expert would do. I try different procedures and techniques until the problem is solved, whether it is pertaining to network settings, video graphic cards, computer cable or RAM. There are so many problems with the computer that it would be impossible to list them all. It is not easy to learn these skills, and I had to open a computer several times to understand the different parts of the computer and found out that I would have to learn a lot in order to become an expert in this field.

These skills help me because I fix my computer without spending money at times.

I would like to teach this skill to most of my peers as this is going to benefit them in their professional lives as well.
