Verbal communication refers to any sounds used to convey a message, such as speaking words. Non-verbal communication conveys messages without sounds through facial expressions, body language, sign language, and gestures. Examples of good communication skills include clear speaking, active listening, maintaining eye contact, having an open posture, smiling, promptly replying to texts, and acknowledging others. Poor communication skills can result in loneliness, difficulty getting jobs, and being excluded from groups.

college and feel left out.
