How To Improve English Communication Skills Efficiently?
With the rapid advancement in Technology and increasing Globalization, we are moving towards a highly communication driven environment.
When two people speaking two different languages, meet, then they often communicate in English, thereby, making English to be a link language. This is the reason; English language is taught by many schools and universities across the globe. Around two billion people speak English globally and is the number one language learned by the speakers of any other language. Therefore, being able to use English language effectively for communication proves to be of great advantage.
We have Three main types of Communication, which are Verbal, Non-Verbal, and Written. In short, they can be described as:
Verbal Communication: When you are talking to someone face to face, or on a video call or over the phone.
Non-Verbal Communication: Body Language and Gestures.
Written Communication: E-Mails and Messages.
To have an overall development of communication skills, we must work to improve all three types of Communication.
