My communication skills over the pass years have been at ease for me. In my life I haven’t been very social communicating around people. When I am giving a speech to a class, I feel confident. Some of the time when I’m giving a speech, I tend to stumble across my words and also mumble too. It is not that I feel worried that I’m talking in front of people but sometimes I read too fast I stumble over words and I tend to repeat the sentence over again. That has been my problem ever since the first time I had to give a speech about a paper I did. Another problem that I have is socially communicating. At first I’m very shy around people for a good reason. When I’m around somebody I don’t know, I want to stay quiet and observe that person. I don’t want to say the unnecessary thing around someone or a group of people that I don’t know and it might offend them or make things awkward. When I’m around the same person more and more and I start to realize that I can communicate with them, I start to become more social and confident to them and then they start to become a personal friend to me.
The first goal that I want to work on is communicating in front of a class. I have to be calmer and take a more direct approach. I really have to focus on how to say my words more clearly and make it sound more understanding to my audience. In the past, I haven’t been very successful with how my word choice fits in with my paper and that I overlook words in my paper that I should add or take out. How I want to improve on this is that I need to organize my thoughts more. I should relax and take my time speaking because I don’t want to make myself sound like I’m panicking.
My second goal is communicating with others and how to relate to them. To become a good communicator I have to be more a talkative person. The only reason keeping me from doing that are my views on different people. I know talking is a good way of how to start a good relationship but there comes limits to what to say to a person. I want to approach a person in a good positive way and communicate with them on equal levels. Going out and being social to everyone that you don’t know would be a good thing if you are in college your first year and you want to get to know everybody. I have to say that my goal would be is be more social and outgoing. I’m a laid back person and I let things come to me but

trip I take with my family is a memorable one, but there is one that I will remember for all time, the camping trip of ’05. Because it was such a scorching hot summer day, my mother decided to take us to the beach near our campsite. The sun was beaming down on us, but we didn’t mind because the crisp breeze and the frigid water of the lake helped cool us down. My younger siblings and I were down by the lake blithely playing in the sand and splashing each other with water while my two older sisters…

part of my diversity wheel are: my gender and my physical abilities. I really could have picked any of the six categories and had plenty to discuss. I chose gender because I have a pretty good idea of what my life would be like if I were male because I have a twin brother. I chose physical abilities as my second comparison because it’s something that we all take for granted and I think it deserves a closer look; to enhance my appreciation for the things I do with little to no thought, given my healthy…
