Communication is an important part of our life. Without it we will not be able to pass messages, Information and more to another group of people. Communication is basically when a person has the ability to say and write in the form of feel, think and need.
Problems of a child having a bad communication
<> The lack of knowledge- When a child does not have much words to speak, which indicates that the child doesn’t have much knowledge in words.
<> Hearing issues- when a child has hearing issues, he needs to be guided by sign language. Due to this a child with hearing issues have difficulty in communication.
<> Very less vocabulary- If the child lacks in knowledge, then he or she does not know much words to use in the day-day life.
<> Stuttering- A child having perfect vocabulary, perfect speech and no hearing issues, we think that he/she doesn’t have any problems. To speak out a speech your child needs confidence which they don’t have, while speaking up, they stutter their words which unable the audience to understand what he/she is saying.
<> Unclear speech- When a child has a trouble in pronunciation of words, mumbling, or a change in speed or rhythm while talking. The medical term for slurred speech(unclear speech) is dysarthria.
<>Scared of being judged-when a child is scared that his answer may be wrong or other children may make fun of him. Then he is scared of being judged also the child does not have much confidence to stand up for himself and thus runs away in fright.
<>Introvert personality- When a person is being on its inner thoughts than what is happening in the outside world, they also like spending time with one or two people rather that a group or crowd.
<>Not able to express- when a person has the right word to think and write them, but is not able to express himself in the form he wants to.
<>loss of words- when somebody doesn’t know what to say or is in shock. It generally happens when we see a huge audience or when we don’t have much confidence in ourselves, thinking that we might fail.
<>stage fear-In my personal opinion, I’ll let you on a secret of mine, I actually have stage fear, it’s basically like when we see a lot of people we get nervous if they might like what we say or if we say something wrong, and that’s why some people even start to shake while performing.
Some ways to improve your child’s communication
<>Talk regularly with your child- Talking regularly with your child can help improve vocabulary and build up their confidence
<>Create the right speaking and learning environment-when we use, children starts using those words. Therefore, we need to create a right educational environment. During family time it is important that you and your child is having fun playing cards, board games etc. and at that point we need to forget all the work we have for 15mins and enjoy time with family.
<>Read with your child- reading helps us to get better with communication and vocabulary, which later leads to better and excellent communication. And when start speaking greater communication platforms, we get better and better.
<>Encourage your child to keep a journal-Writing a journal is going to help us get better and better on communication, writing skills, vocabulary etc. and thus we are encouraged by our parents to keep a journal or write a journal for our own helpful need. When we feel that things may be tough, we take a chance to go and see how well will it end, after all that hesitation things go well and we fell that we were panicking for no reason.
<>Show and tell- it helps a child to become confident, get more vocabulary, comfortable speaking in public etc. We are also expressing our true selves, and freely speaking out loud. It is also an important part of family time because we are doing some sort of magic.
<>Debate- It helps to express their views more clearly in front of a wide audience and they start having confidence. This is also a group based activity, where we have to communicate with the group to express our ideas and thoughts of the view. This also concludes that that team work is important in debates.
<>Speak looking in the mirror-When we look in the mirror, we see ourselves. Try reading a script you have to present and you don’t know when you might mess up at times, looking at yourself in the mirror with help you get the confidence you need to speak in front of the people and you can also see where you are going wrong. “The person in the mirror is your only competition.”, “Some call it ARROGANCE, but I call it COFIDENCE.”, “be more of YOU and not THEM.”
As you can see communication is a really important part of our life, as said above. Some stuff we know, we generally forget, and someone to remind us of it again. Spending more time on online things during these times is not going to helpful, because later on we will get tired and no time to spend with ourselves. Make a change in it, with communication, spend time with your family and yourself, also you are able to learn much more with it.
So, let’s make ourselves free from online and enjoy our time with friends and family and communication.
