Editor's Notes
- Be friendly, nice, and kind to the other person. Let him feel there is nothing to be afraid of because you are trying your best to understand and communicate .
- It will help him digest better what you are trying to say when you speak to him a little bit slower than your usual conversation. This gives him the time to process the information in his head before he can fully understand what you said.
- I once heard a story about an immigrant young boy who went to the Philippines with his parents. In school one day, he felt an urge to use the restroom. Knowing very little English, he tried to ask his classmates how to get there but nobody understood him. Feeling he couldn't hold it any longer, he approached his teacher. While talking, he made a gesture of trying to pull his pants down and making facial expressions to let the other person know he needed to use the restroom badly. Finally, he was understood and he was led to the right place.
- Draw, use pictures, or things to represent ideas, persons or places. It will make it more understanding what each of you is trying to say if it is backed up with images that both of you can relate. However,too much emphasis on visual aids can become very distracting to the audience. As a speaker you must exercise prudence when employing visual aids.
- It will save both of you the headache and the embarrassment of misunderstanding each other.
- However, if both of you keep on trying until you got it, it's worth the effort. Also, remember to have a sense of humor to make the ordeal a bit lighter and the whole experience fun instead of stressful.
- Likewise, doing this not only helps your communication skills, it also has an impact on your personal advancement as well.
- Everybody is not perfect. You are not perfect, I am not either. If you heard me speak English you would probably shake your head and feel very bad for me. Believe it or not, that is what many people will feel about you. What can you do about it? Old saying that : Get over it. Let it be. Forget it. The biggest problem with intermediate students is not only lack of English or foreign language, but also lack of confidence. Many times IT WILL HAPPEN. SO WHAT? It takes courage to open up your mouth and speak a foreign language. If the person you’re speaking to is like you and speaks a foreign language, they will recognize this. If not, you can console yourself with the fact that you speak at least two languages while the idiot that is laughing at your pronunciation only speaks one.
