Gain competitive advantage in the AI ​​era with EQ, foreign languages ​​and Linearthinking

One of the common thoughts among many young people is that high scores and excellent degrees will be the prerequisite 'ticket' to get a scholarship to study abroad or get a good job.

Is that still true in the age of AI?

EQ and foreign languages ​​are prerequisites.

Most recent HR reports show that companies and corporations are gradually considering EQ (emotional intelligence) as important as IQ (normal intelligence). Partly because each organization has its own unique corporate culture, and at the same time, AI (artificial intelligence) can now do many tasks that require specialized knowledge very well, not to mention that knowledge from schools is difficult to keep up with the development of society.

The above stories were discussed in a recently held workshop. According to PhD student Lam Nguyen Bao - director of Song Nguyen Education company - EQ is the ability to understand and manage one's own emotions and understand others.

'These are skills that can only be developed through real-life situations and experiences. For example, participating in extracurricular activities such as acting, presenting, and working in groups will help us practice communication and empathy skills,' shared the face who won third place at the national French competition.

Although he has many 'huge' achievements in studying, Mr. Nguyen Bao affirms that EQ is the decisive factor that helps his life to be successful and happy.

The process of learning a foreign language can also help a young person develop EQ. 'For example, in learning English, EQ will develop through aspects such as empathy (when trying to understand other cultures and other people's worldviews ) and perseverance (when facing and learning to overcome difficulties and discouragement during the learning process)...', shared Master Do Thi Ngoc Anh - an IELTS score of 8.5 and a scholarship winner in the UK.

Perfecting EQ and foreign languages ​​effectively thanks to Linearhinking

Mr. Nguyen Bao said that Song Nguyen Education Company currently has educational activities that both integrate knowledge and help students practice EQ. Specifically, CFAW - 'College for a week' helps students experience the American university environment, confidently communicate and work in groups, while the Glocal Leadership Camp summer camp develops leadership skills, communication skills, responsibility, and teamwork in an English environment...

In addition, individuals who wish to study abroad in an environment with high academic and EQ can also learn about New Zealand, a country that has repeatedly ranked first in the "Future Readiness Index" published by the prestigious Times Higher Education rankings.

Many domestic education systems have also shown progress in their efforts to effectively integrate EQ development support activities into teaching, including DOL English.

'For example, EQ development is integrated into interactive activities at DOL English such as debates, group discussions and role-playing in speaking skills classes. In this class, with the Linearthinking method, learners are guided after having a main idea, an overview, to develop it into branch ideas and present it clearly and effectively', said Master Do Thi Ngoc Anh - academic manager at DOL English.

Master Tran Anh Khoa - a person who achieved a perfect 9.0 IELTS score and graduated as second in the English language department, University of Social Sciences and Humanities (Ho Chi Minh City National University) - gave an example of developing critical thinking, EQ suggests many perspectives of students using the Linearthinking method.

'For example, I once encountered a writing test question before: "Although agriculture has developed in many places, many people are still hungry, why?". With this topic, although I did not have much related knowledge, I applied the "concretization" thinking in the Linearthinking method, from which I developed ideas and the final essay received a very high score,'' the academic director at DOL English recalled.
