Reflective Listening.\n\nCheck with the other person be be sure you understood what they said.\n\nMake a statement like "What I think I heard you say was ...." That gives them and opportunity to correct what you heard to their meeting.\n\nYou can ask the other person to reflect back what you have said in the same way.  \n\nThis is an excellent interpersonal skill to have that helps you in personal relationships, business, and in the counseling world it is used by counselors.  \n\nI hope this is clear enough to help.

As a teacher, I think a brief apology for an unstifled belch is fine. Really, keep your mouth closed and you should be fine.\nFarts, however, do not exist in polite society and are therefore best ignored. Don't claim it, don't blame someone else, just continue on as if nothing had happened.

The purpose of communication is to get your message across to others. This is a process that involves both the sender of the message and the receiver. This process leaves room for error, with messages often misinterpreted by one or more of the parties involved. This causes unnecessary confusion and counter productivity.\n\nBy successfully getting your message across, you convey your thoughts and ideas effectively. When not successful, the thoughts and ideas that you convey do not necessarily reflect your own, causing a communications breakdown and creating roadblocks that stand in the way of your goals – both personally and professionally.

Basics of Effective Communication?\n\n1) Keep a low, kind, but clearly heard voice.\n2) Speak only when the other(s) have finished.\n3) Let the others speak until they have finished. Use a talking stick if necessary (the one who holds the stick, talks).\n4) Point out the benefits the others have from your plans.\n5) Let differences of opinions stand, not argue about them.\n6) Do not criticize the othes for their opinion, but find something positive about it.\n7) It is better to say "and" instead of "but" when you have a different idea. E.g. "Your idea is interesting, and let us add this to it!" Instead of, "Well that's your idea, but I have a better one."\n8) Let the others have a sense of a win/win situation.\n9) Never use bad language, no matter how rude the others may get.\n10) Postpone a dialog when the emotions run high, and choose a time to contunue, when all is again calm. State so.\n11) Thank the particpants for their contributions.\n\nMay be that's it? You may put these suggestion in your own words to make a paragraph, and may be, add ideas.\n\nGood results for you!\nCordially, India.Magica

The most effective and successful way to improve one's communication skills is to 'COMMUNICATE'.\n\nYes! Unless one is not getting into the practise of communicating all the time, it is hard to have that skill.\n\nFeel free to communicate (in the language you desired to develop)! Never hesitate for the pronunciation mistakes or of its grammar.\nBut when you did those mistakes or may be blunders(depends on the language),  try to avoid the next time and for ever.\nGradually, try to communicate nicely, error-free and fluently.\n\nIts sure it'll be yours.\nBest Wishes!

make a person smile a couple of times, laugh a couple of times and you throw thier receptivity switch in thier personallity to the on position. with this done just deliver the question as if it was something that you needed thier personal advice on and most people will divulge almost anything. they may shoot it straight from the hip or the more shy will give it as a "third" person or "hyperthetical" scenario but we can all read between those lines lol ;o)

Speak to them in private. A person in charge doesn't appreciate being undermined in front of the people they're in charge of (unless, of course, you want to undermine them!:). Be very polite, but firm, and back your reasons. The traditional argument paper form could help here:\n\n1. State problem/solution\n2. Reasoning for solution/Reasoning for it being a problem\n3. Counter any responses you may expect/Interpret why the current solution is being used, but say why that's wrong\n4. Sum up\n\nOf course, a conversation is different than a paper. . .

I've been accused of it.  Always speak quickly, with a sense of urgency, like you're going to be late, or you just HAVE to get it all out.  Not so fast that you stumble, just more quickly.  Then make your R's soft, sorta roll an R into an l.  Like Saying York like Yalk.  See if it helps.
