“Saturday for love”
The sentence is popular among students and was used as a theme for the course. Talking about this, Mr. Khoi said: “Understanding the loneliness that the students have to face when staying at home during the outbreak of Covid-19, the lecturers decided to hold the course with a romantic theme “love”.

The theme of the course may suggest couples in love, however, the course went far beyond that in giving the students advices in life. Soft skills and problem-solving skills are what needed for real-life situations.
