What is it


One skill that I can teach other people is public speaking. It’s a valuable skill that helps individuals express their ideas clearly and confidently in front of an audience.

How can you teach others


I can teach others by organizing small practice sessions where they can speak on simple topics in front of a group. I would give them feedback on body language, voice modulation, and clarity. I also encourage recording their speeches so they can identify areas of improvement.

I feel very proud of this skill because it has helped me in many aspects of life — from interviews to professional presentations. Teaching this skill to others gives me great satisfaction because I can help them overcome fear and build confidence.
