Social Skills training 

Social skills are the tools and skills that help people to listen and communicate with each other, solve conflicts, empathy, demonstrate positive friendship behaviors, make friends, get our needs met appropriately, share and receive, and interact with others in a positive way.

Children who are behind in social skills may benefit from extra practice, teaching, or direct instruction in social skills, often referred to as social skills training. 

Social skills training is a direct way of teaching social skills. Directly teaching social skills has been proven to improve social skills in children and teens.
