Basic computer skills are so important for our students. A lot of them are use to their chromebooks so when they come in my classroom, which is a computer lab with desktops, I take the time to teach them the basics of how to log out, save files, etc. 

Being a lifelong learner is so important. I think students need examples of that in the real world. I love it when I have a guest speaker in marketing or business classes who references the professional development or continuing education they do. It is so important for our students. 

Teamwork is built into all the business and marketing classes I teach. In particular, teaching presentation skills is one of my favorite things to do in marketing. It helps students build their confidence and overall professionalism. 

Writing is an important skill in the business and marketing courses I teach. It is a crucial part of communication and in particular a piece that I find very important in written communication is e-mail. Students must know how to properly communicate professionally but also when it is appropriate to do so and when in person communication is best. 

Teaching professional skills is just as important as technical skills. The soft skills are what employers are looking for our students to have in the workforce. 

I realize how important it is for the teacher to have interpersonal skills to help build relationships between the students and the instructor.

Yes, I agree with Nicole Yoacham that we should lead by example. 

I have learned that soft skills are just as important as technical skill for students to learn.

That it is very important to make sure your students understand basic computer skills 

Of how important is is for your students to know the importance of learning, but not just learning for a short time. That it is importance for a life long learning skills.
