Letter of Recommendation by Dr. Xu: Dr.Eckman’s Skills for living curriculum is a perfect educational module for the university students in China. …”Part 1, 2, 6 and 7 focus on family background and identity which will help the students to know themselves better as special individuals, and how their original families dye different colors on their pictures of themselves. Chinese students may do very well on examinations, but they would be unhappy. Some of them are trapped in depression and cannot find a way out. …”Part 3, 4, 5 and 8 of this curriculum will help them to learn useful skills to cope with pressures, manage emotions and build healthy relationships with each other. The unique advantage of this curriculum is the group exercise. This kind of modular training will help students communicate with each other and encourage self-growth. It is my great privilege to have Dr. Eckman’s consent to use Skills For Living as a textbook in my class. I will introduce this curriculum into Peking University Health Science Center as an optional course of undergraduates. I will try my best to make the best use of it and promise to send feedback from my class.” Dr. Sofia Xu Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist Medical Psychology Institute, Peking University Health Science Center Dr. Eckman & Dr. Xu, Clinical Psychologist at Peking Univ. one of the most prestigious schools in China.
