text: Improving social skills can make it easier for people to ask for advice. When asking for advice, people need to self- advocate, express feelings, and more. If none of that is done, then how else will they get what they need? Social skills is also another way of making friends. The more someone has, the easier it will be to get the best advice. There are students in school that don't feel comfortable talking to a teacher or consular, because they dont feel secure with themselves. Social skills can be a great way to get advice from them, because that can teach students how to be secure, and it get what they need if their friends can't help them.
