Summary/Abstract: It goes without saying that in this day and age hard skills are a must in a student’s background and preparation. However, the pandemic and the globalized world has taught us that soft skills are real assets in every field of expertise and they are here to stay. It is my firm belief that our purpose as teachers/trainers/educators/facilitators, besides teaching language and literature we should also need to help them develop be successful in their career, whatever profession they might choose, due to the fact that most people are looking for soft skills in the people they hire. Hence, I will focus on some concepts that can reinforce the need for soft skills.
