a. I believe my strengths as a communicator are that I am able to keep a conversation going, I can tell people how I feel with not only my words but with my actions as well. I really enjoy talking especially when the topic is something that I am very interested in. I have a pretty good vocabulary and I know how words should be used. I am a really good listener, people are able to come to me and talk about anything and they know that I will listen and not judge. I think people also like to talk to me because they know I can give them insight and potential solutions to their problems. I am not very good with visual arrangement, I have never been very artist and I am not good at expressing myself through art. When it comes to communicating with others I am more comfortable with writing, it makes it easier to be able to put your thoughts together. However writing to someone rather than talking to them can lead to misinterpretation because they may take something you wrote as something that is bad and you would not be able to explain yourself. I do keep a journal because like to be able to write down my feelings and be able to look back on my past experiences. People say that I am a very funny person; I do not usually take myself too seriously. I do like to think about current issues and discuss them with others and hear different views on the subject. Some people say that I am a good communicator when it comes to most things; however some have said that I am a very bad communicator when I am upset with a person because when I get mad at someone I will not talk to them and that frustrates them.
b. I think what has contributed a lot to my communicational skills is my life experiences. My life experiences allow me to be able to relate to people and provide insight for them. My teachers in school have also helped me become better at communication because ever since kindergarten my teachers have made me interact and communicate with other students. My family has helped me become a better communicator by teaching me ways to interact with people and how to behave.

Good response, easy to read. I have one suggestion though, it seems as though you answered just the questions that were being asked. Expand on those ideas, go into more detail. I felt as though I was reading a short essay, something that you would hand in to the teacher, and not something that I would read in a blog...
I agree. I enjoyed reading your post, but I would like to know more.
Your right, you have a great vocabulary and you are a good writer. I really like how you can make everything blend together and make it sound very good. I think thats cool that all your freinds find you a good listener, now I feel like I can come and talk to you about my problems too. Thanks Melissa
