READING Lesson with Mr. Azmi

Dear Salina,

           How are you? I hope you are fine. I just read an article about better communication a few days ago. I have some points which you can use for your essay.

           First, you must stop to think before you speak. Think of what you want to say before you say it. Once it is spoken, you cannot take it back. The article also said that eye contact is important. You must look a person in the eye when you talk. This shows that you are honest individual. You will also get the person’s attention.

Another point you can include in your essay is to state your opinions is simple short sentences. This helps the listener understand your message easily. If you use difficult words or long sentences, the listener may get confused or lose interest.

           I remember another point. You must not talk all the time during a conversation. You must also listen. Then, the other person will also be interested in listening to you. I think this point is right. We should listen to what others have to say too.

           I hope these tips are useful and you can add them to the ones you already have. Please write soon. Bye!
