1. I believe that my communication skills are pretty good. I am a people person, and socially equipped on a broad scale. In an academic setting, i dont find myself having trouble communicating with instructors, students, peers, or anyone around for that matter.My strengths are being able to project and convey whatever message i need to. In a different professional setting, i again find myself being a success in communicating, hence the reason why i am usaully the one who has the most contact with the customers while i am at work. Good Communication is definitley one of strengths.
ReplyDelete2. Communication will be vital in my professional career. As a Pediatrician, not only will i be dealing with the emotion-filled children, but as well the concerned and sometimes bewildered parents. In addition communication amongst my colleagues will be essntial in operating an effective and successful practice.
1. I feel that my community skills so far are pretty good and understandable. plus im am satisfy with everything that i am able to do i feel that I am comfortable talking about anything that i feel that is on my mind and be able to express my personal thoughts and feelings about something and being able to turn nothing into something. and having the ability to do what it takes to lead others.
ReplyDelete2.I feel that communication will play a major role in my carrer, because I would have to be willing to communicate and able to stand out, so that people can see what i can offer and what can i bring to the table.
1. In professional settings I feel that my communication skills are adequate, but they could use some improvement. I tend to get very nervous in professional settings and though everyone tells methat I am doing everything well, I cannot help but feel that I am not conveying everything I want to coney. In an academic setting I am confident in my communination skills as long as I know wht I am talking about.
ReplyDelete2. Effective communication kills for the near future can help me with netorking and also making sure I am on the same page as my instructors. As for my future as a pharmacist it is of utmost importance that I am able to communicate well with the eople who eek my help to ensure that they are taking their medication correctly and understand potentiial side effects and interactions.
i have good commucation skills I'm able to talk to people and get along with them.
ReplyDelete2)my commcations will help me do my job well as a psychology major
1) I beleive i have good communication skills in both areas . I how to talk in a professonal setting and i also know how to communicate with my friends . I believe i struggle with always saying the word , " like " alot . I try to also slow down the speed of my talking so people can understand me better .
ReplyDelete2)My communication skills will help me explain how to do things to others , who dont understand how to execute a task when dealing with patients. It will also help me articulate better to a crowd at a medical convention .

@Briana : Good points made , networking is important in the world today , you never know who you can meet .
@David : I like your point , expressing yourself is the best communication skill , because it gives you practice and plus its your personal thoughts being shared .
1. Well I feel like the communication skills i build in an academic setting enhance, and prepare me for when I am in a professioonal setting, with poeple from different places.
ReplyDelete2.Communications skills will allow me to better network, and market my attirbutes to vast range of clients. I feel that having excellent communitcaton skills is something a upcoming professional in any field must have inorder to be successful, and in high demand.
1.I have evaluated my communications skills in a professional and academic manner. I found that i do communicate well because i am a good listener. I love to hear other point of views about things as well as learning new facts. My facial expressions and input to the situation are then accurate when i communicate because i listened so well. The challenges i face when communicated is speaking. I mentioned how i listen and so i am taking a part in the convosation, but i do not always share my " two cents". It will be a chaleenge, but i would like to become more outspoken.
ReplyDelete2.I see effective communication skills playing a huge role in my professional future. I say this because i am going to be a nurse. Since, i am in the medical field, i must know how to communicate with patients and other nurses and doctors. If i do not communicate with them well a serious problem may occur. This issue can be life or death, communication will be the key in my professional future!

ReplyDelete1. In a professional setting, I believe that I have effective communication skills. I do not use slang words and i know how to get my message across clear.y. The only problem that i may have is my grammar. I have poor grammar however i am working on it. When i talk to my teachers, I don't have any problems. I am prepared and know some knowledge of what is going on.
2. Knowing how to communicate is critical in every profession. Even though i do not know what profession I'm going to have to talk. It may be in an interview or to my colleagues but i would have to communicate.
@sonyamaria... This is so true. While being a nurse communication with your patients is very important. Someone's life is in jeopardy.
@Briana.. I get nervous too. It may just be a confidence thing.
@ David.. I need to learn to express myself more. Any ideas of how???
1. My communication skills in professional and academic settings are pretty effective. I know how to tactfully express myself to others. Its just that sometimes my nerves tend to get the best of me and I don't say things exactly as I had planned.
ReplyDelete2. I think effective communication plays a tremendous role in my future. This week I want to be a lobbyist. There is no way in the world I can do that if I can't talk to people in a professional setting and do a good job of convincing them to see things like I see them if my communication skills are sub-par.
Ekebnta: You're right. Communication is very important in a pediatrician's life.
Chardai: It's good that you're working on your grammar skills.
Bridget: You said it well. Good communication skills are important to networking opportunities. Networking is very important so communication is too.
1. My community skills are kinda bad because iam not an out spoken person meaning I can't walk up to someone and start talking. I' m mainly afraid of rejection or being embrassed.
ReplyDelete2.I think that effective communication skills will play an importahnt role in my professional life because this is needed to communicate with others and the outside world.
ReplyDelete1. My communication professional and academic settings are pretty bad. When I'm talking to my professor I usually talk to them the same way I talk to my friends. My only thing is my grammar I'm not afraid to talk to them its just the way that I usually approach them.
ReplyDelete2.I think that effective communication skill will play a very important role in my career, because I will have to talk to my patients and my nurses so i will need very good communication skills.
@Bridget I think you made some very good point about communication skills
ReplyDelete@Brandi Yes we will need to communicate especially in the outsidee world
@Chardai Girl me too with the grammar thats something we both need to work on.
I believe my communication skills are okay. However, they can be better. My communication skills tend to change depending on the setting. I am a good listener, but i sometimes lack the ability to give good feedback.
ReplyDeleteEffective communication skills is very important in any career. It is very important to know how to communicate with others. Particularly in my career, I will be communicating with criminals and important people that uphold the law.
Rayon Landry
ReplyDeleteMy communication skills are just enough to get me by. I don't always be in the mood to talk to people which is why I wear my headphoes all the time. I think that if I were willing to communicate a little more I'd improve in everything in life because when I need help I don't ask sometimes.
Since I see myself as a leader I'm sure communication skills will be very important when I am leading someone because I will need the patience to hear people out and I don't do that well now so I will have to work on it. So for my in future I see effective communications skills playing a mega role.

ReplyDeleteBridget: I like that you pointed out that working on communication skills on an academic level will enhance you for your professional life because at first I didn't see the point in talking to too many people.
Chardai: I like that you don't use slang words and your words honestly make me want to not use slang words in any settings.
Shi'Nece: I agree with you because my communication skills are only okay also because like yours mines tend to change also in different settings. I believe that any feedback is good feedback so whatever you have to say may help.
1. My whole conversation changes depending on what the situation calls for, i think that my strengths would be once i'm comfortable i have no problem kepping whatever conversations interesting. My weakness/challenge would be that it takes me a min to get comfortable enough to even introduce myself
ReplyDelete2.As a nurse communicating effectively will be key in making my assessments because if i cant communicate with a patient how do i know what is wrong, or how strong whatever pain is.
@chilia WE IN THE SAME BOAT :)
1. My communcation skills are average depending on what is the subject, audience, and the tone of the room. My strengths is making jokes and making people feel comfortable around my speech or while I talk. My weaknesses is being too nervous around my audience and keeping my nerves down. I usually mis words and don't get my point across.
ReplyDelete2. Communication skills is everything in my field. Talking to different person to sales my proprose and make sales. Talking clearly of the main idea to get my idea across.
I agree with Dorian Webster that you need communicate skills to be a nurse.
I agree with everyone that you need communication skills to be successful in the professional world.
1. I believe my communication skills are good. I communicate well with my peers and professors. However, sometimes I get nervous when i'm speaking to strangers.
ReplyDelete2. In order to be successful in my profession I have to communication. I have been practicing, so I can become a better speaker when in public.
zachary davis: I get nervous too.
Dorian Webster: Once I get comfortable around a group it is easier th talk to them.
Craishan Bridges: I use fillers when I get nervous.
Myya Jackson
ReplyDelete1. I think my communication skills needs work especially in professional settings because I get nervous easily. When im with my peers i can express my self better but i still get nervous at time if im not as comfortable around them or if it is a big crowd.
2. Communication is the key to many professions but not only that it is the key to everything. In order for you to express yourself you have to tell how you are feeling. So, communication is going to help me through out life. I have been working on my communication skills and talking more around big crowds.
1. I think my communication skills can use a great deal of improvement. Nervousness is the main problem.I agree with Bridget because practicing and taking on an academic setting will definitely improve my communication skills in a professional environment.
ReplyDelete2.I agree with Myya on this question. Communication is needed in all fields of study. One must express themselves in a orderly manner in any setting. Therefore communication will assist me as well as others in life.
1. I feel that I am able to communicate clearly with anyone, as long as I am knowledgeable about the subject matter and comfortable with my surroundings. I find it difficult to articulate with people on something i know nothing about.
ReplyDelete2. Good communication skills will be very important in the field of nursing. I will encounter people on a daily and must be able to speak clearly and eliquently.
@Dorian...I agree we have to communicate with our co-workers as well about the patients and their assessments
@Rayon...Although your communication skills may get you by..you should always strive for the best
@Ekeb...I want to be a pediatric nurse and you're right, we must be able to communicate with children as well as their parents about matters
1. I feel as though my communication skills are quite strong espeically in a professional setting. In contrast, I believe that my communication skills in a personal setting aren't as strong due to language barriers I have with some of my peers. By me being from the northern region of the U.S. I've noticed that some of the things I say are misinterpet by my conterparts in various situations.
ReplyDelete2. As my aspirations of being a corporate attorney I believe that my communications skills will be vastly used in a almost all settings. I know that I will be dealing with people from all over the globe, so in advance I will need to speak clearly and make sure that what I'm saying is not misinterpeted by any means.

ReplyDelete1. Evaluate your communication skills in professional and academic settings. Discuss your strengths and challenges.
My communication skills aren't as good as they should be. As an actor, I should be able to relate to any audience and have a good speaking voice. FOr this skill, I am currently taking Voice and Diction with Sherri Marina.
2.What role do you see effective communication skills playing in your professional future?
Effective communication skills play an important role in my future because as a future successful actress, communication is key. If i am auditioning, people must understand what i am saying clearly and be able to identify the character and the situation.

ReplyDelete1.) I am a naturally shy person so I tend to only communicate with people that I know so since Ive been in college ive had to learn how to open up and let my teachers know whats going on because their are alot of questions that my peers cant always answer. With that being said, I am more comfortable talking to professors.
2.)Being as though i would like to become a doctor and do research, communication is definetly important because i would have to learn how to talk to people of different ethnic backgrounds and etc. and also attend different medical conferences and being able to communicate my ideas would be important
@@Felisha I get nervous also and sometimes rehearsing with my roomates or calling my mom helps relieve some stress and anxiety
ReplyDelete@@ Alannia: I dont like to talk to strangers to..i Havent made it that far in my personal development
@@Craishan: Yeah sometimes i stumble or say "uhh" or whatever
1. When I first started school I was skeptical to speak out in class and participate in any type of class discussions. Even when I attended sessions on academic interests or discussions, I would not speak out because I feared that I would say something that sounded dumb. As I have progressed to my second semester, I am more open to sharing my point of view and voicing my opinion when I am included in discussions.
ReplyDelete2. I plan to become a teacher and even though I will teach young kids, I know that I cannot be shy because I have to so that I have authority. Although I am often uncomfortable speaking in front of my peers, I feel better about working with younger kids. I know that I must have good communication skills to work with my students so that that respect my authority, but also understand that I am there to help them learn.
@ Craishan Bridges
I sruggle with the same problems as you. When I speak in front of people, I get nervous when I realize that I say "uh" and "um" a lot. It makes me feel stupid and I just want to stop talking.
@ Ekebnta Okorn
I agree that you are good at communicating effectively. I aspire to one day be able to speak like you. Can you give me any tips to become a better speaker??
@ Alexandria Broadnax
I also like to practice my speeches in front of my friends so that I can get their feedback and work on things that can be fixed.
1. In an academic and professional setting I tend to get very nervous because im in front of a group of people that i dont know. I believe I can defiantly improve my communication skills and work on loosening up.
ReplyDelete2. Haveing a career in Nursing,communication will be vital because in order to get patients to open up to me I will have to possess good communication skiils.
1. In an academic and professional setting I tend to get very nervous because I’m in front of a group of people that I don’t know. I believe I can defiantly improve my communication skills and work on loosening up.
ReplyDelete2. Having a career in Nursing, communication will be vital because in order to get patients to open up to me I will have to possess good communication skills.
1. I am a very confident speaker but my weakness is that people sometimes can not understand me because they say I talk "funny"
ReplyDelete2. They will help my patients to understand me.
1. My academic skills can be similar and different in an academic and professional setting. I feel that in a an academic setting I can be more comfortable depending on who my teacher is and my relationship with them. But overall I feel that I have the ability to articulate my thoughts and ideas clearly and in a collegiate way. I can work on using filler words like "uhm" and things of that nature. Also I feel that I cam enhance my vocabulary so that I am not using elementary language but rather prestigious and more professional language. Overall no matter how well I believe my communication is, there is always room for improvements.
ReplyDelete2. In a professional setting effective communication can be helpful for me to be able to convey what I am thinking. often times I just assume that people should automatically know what i am thinking but that is not always the case, especially in a professional setting. It can be very childish to assume that some is a mind reader. But overall I feel that effective communication can help me to articulate what I am thinking to my supervisor and co-workers.
I am not afraid to speak in front of or commnunicate with others, but I do feel that I need to improve on fillers. I also read more to enhance my vocabulary. It will be very important not to speakin on elementary level.
ReplyDeleteHaving a career with nursing,communication skills are very important and needs to be professional.
1. I think I am a good communication person. I speak to any and every person. When it comes to academics I am especially a good communicator. I run my teachers down for a grade or question or whatever the matter is. Weakness: I don't really talk in class as much.
ReplyDeleteProfessionaly I think I am a good communicator too.
2. Communication is very important in the professional world. It will take you very far in your professional career.
@Tandrear I am the same way and need some help.
@Chilia I am a nursing student as well and she made a good point.
1. Communication is the process of sending and recieving messages effectively. Whether it is speaking or writing, they are both considered communication. After evaluating my communication skills in a professional and academic setting, or environment, I have realize that I still can improve on my skills.I agree with Jupiter. I need to read more to enhance my vocabulary. I believe that I am a good speaker(when I do speak),as well as writer. But, I think I can still build on my communication skills.
ReplyDelete2. Effective communication skills will be very essential in my professional future. I agree with Chilia. In the future, I will have to be able to communicate effectively with my patients and other nurses and doctors.
1. I know i can communicate well in both settings. i use my grammar correctly and i have a large vocabulary to choose from and i usually know how to choose which word to use in certain sentences. the only problem i have is sometimes a few bits of slang may fall out on accident but that rarely happens.
ReplyDelete2. im sure now and eventually i will have to do presentations and i may have to teach some classes. these are environments in which i need to be professional and use my communication skills.
Bene'a S.
ReplyDelete1.) I belive that my communication skills could be a whole lot better. I use a lot of slang when i talk and text to the point where i don't really know how to express myself in professional and academic settings. I'm trying to limit the amount of slang i use to broading my vocabulary.
2)Communication skills are vreey important to my professional future because i am a psychology major.

@Craishan i have the same problem i get nervus and us like um. or uh a lot i try not to but it happens on because i speak so fast i need to slow down.
1.) I believe my communication skills are very good inside and utside the academic realm and the business realm. I dont use a lot of slang when i talk and I do my best to broaden my vocabulary whenever I can.
ReplyDelete2. Communication skills are very important to my professional future because I plan to be a social worker therefore it is critical that I have good communication and people skills since in my feild I will be dealing with people everyday all the time.
@ Bene'a S.
ReplyDeleteI too agree slang an be a problem especially if everyone around you speaks using slang with texting being the new way to communicate that can sometimes transfer over into your everyday language and even affect the way you type and write.
@ Adrew I agree that you communicate very well just listening to you speak in class is an indicator of that
@Doreall
I think it is very important to develop your communication skills so that you are not speaking on an elementary level
I think that I have great communication skills. I am able to talk to anyone and i can almost always get my point across. With the friendly and congenial spirit i have, people often dont mind talking to me, so i have never seen communication as a major issue for me
ReplyDelete2. I believe that effective communication skills will play a major role in my career. In the music industry, or any job for that matter, you must be good with networking and speaking and i am good in both of those areas.
I think my communication skills are great because I am good at holding up my own ground and taking a stand point. The problem I may have may be talking a little fast when im talking about something intresting.
ReplyDeleteI believe that my communication skills will help me in the future because my job consisi of talking a whole lot.
@Felisha: my roommate gets nervous also and sometimes rehearsing with my roomates or calling her mom helps her relieve some stress and anxiety
ReplyDelete@ Alannia: I dont mind talking to strangers ..i Havent made it that far in my personal development though.

1.There are alot of questions that my peers cant always answer. With that being said, I am more comfortable talking to professors on an educational level, i don't mind talking to anyone who has a beneficial conversation!

1. I believe that my communication skills are good. I have a great personality and great confidence in what ever I'm doing. So, i just be myself (the other me). There is always room for improvement, but over all I think I have good communication skills.
ReplyDelete2. Going into a very broad field where i will be traveling around the world i would have to be able to communicate with people that doesn't even speak the same language. So, improvement is a must.
@Ellissa I sometimes run into that problem with people. I have been told numerous of times that i have a heavy country dilect. But, with practice you can shape how you speak, so where its clearer to your audience.
1. I know I can communicate well in both settings. I use correct grammar and I have a large vocabulary to choose from. I usually know how to choose which word to use in certain sentences. The only problem I have is sometimes a few bits of slang may fall out on accident but that rarely happens.
ReplyDelete2. I believe that effective communication skills will play a major role in my career. In the music industry, or any job for that matter, you must be good with networking and speaking and i am good in both of those areas
I am a good communicator i can also work well with others. i Just be myself and take it one step at a time.
ReplyDeletein the futer i plain on doing something with music so i have to be able to communicate and i plain on doing a lot of networking.
In a professional setting, I believe that I have effective communication skills. I do not use slang words and i know how to get my message across clear.y. The only problem that i may have is my grammar. I have poor grammar however i am working on it. When i talk to my teachers, I don't have any problems. I am prepared and know some knowledge of what is going on.
ReplyDeleteKnowing how to communicate is critical in every profession. Even though i do not know what profession I'm going to have to talk. It may be in an interview or to my colleagues but i would have to communicate.
