What’re skills you will get or be improved after training Muay Thai?

I have always been asked by fighters that what kinds of skils he will get after taking Muay Thai class. Someone also asked me whether there is any other forms of martial arts that can improve the same skills as Muay Thai does. My opinion is that the punches and kicks can be found in many martial arts but Muay Thai also uses the elbow and knee in fighting. The elbow and knee techniques make Muay Thai different from others and no other martial arts training will teach you these skills.
