Skill section with Skill as field as Text Type. Asking for recommendation

Summary:

I added skill content section in the Person Profile. It looks awkward especially if you enter multiple skills, example 11 Skills.

This is how we have configured it:

Is there a better way of doing this? we are ok to have a list of values of Skills, but it should have the ability to enter new skills thats not in the list. Are there other ways?
