Impact of Learning Communication Skills on Relationships and Personal Growth

I need this to be changed to not apparently to be copied but hold the same concepts just remix it.

A Final Assessment

During this term, I have learned several ways to improve my relationships with others where communication is concerned. The video lectures, handouts, and our textbook, “Looking Out, Looking In”, have been great resources to further educate myself on interpersonal communication. I have noticed a significant change in my own attitude and understanding of other’s and how they communicate with me, as well as how I communicate with them. I have paid closer attention to nonverbal communication from my husband and children. Things like, heavy sighs, awkward yawning, different facial expressions, or gestures. I am usually very busy and rushing from one task to another without making eye contact with my children or husband as we communicate with one another. Because of this, I have missed out on various nonverbal cues. Since taking this class I have been more aware of this and I now take the time to stop, make eye contact, and engage in the conversation thus allowing me to notice these nonverbal cues, also being more present to comprehend the meaning of their words. I am also more aware and pick up on these cues before a conversation is even had, allowing me to ask questions like, “I noticed you have not been smiling as much this week. Is there something bothering you? Would you like to talk about it?”

Other people in my life have noticed that I am practicing what I have learned. My children have pointed out to me that they like it better when I listen to their emotions and let them openly talk about their problems rather than giving my unwanted opinion or advice. This has greatly improved the relationships I have with my teenage children. My son and I work together at a local hotel on the weekends. We have had various conversations on our way to work about what I have learned in this class and how I feel it has improved some very important relationships in my life. Raising teenage children is not any easy task but having some ground communication concepts has made a major improvement in how we interact as a family. I have begun to be more supportive of my children’s future plans even ones I don’t think are going to pan out for them. I have realized I can be supportive and not necessarily in agreeance with my children’s future goals and plans.

If I were to describe this class to a future student, I would say that the goals of this class are, to get you to look at your communication skills, evaluate where you can make some improvements, and then implement these new communication skills into their everyday life relationships. The benefits of this course are without a doubt life changing for anyone who uses various forms of language to communicate. You will develop better ways to address conflicts with your partners, loved ones, and friends. You will also benefit from this class by learning ways to improve how you communicate with friends and family. Everyone can benefit from taking this class.

This exercise was a great way to reflect on what this term has brought to my relationships with people very near and dear to my heart. This was a reminder of how much improvement I have made and how much more improvement I can continue to make if I keep practicing what I have learned. Thank you for teaching this class and bringing these skills to your students. I sure have enjoyed this class
