To develop the communication skills of the learner because the ability to articulate, to voice out the meaning and values of things that one obtains from the experience of life and the world is the very essence of man
Teachers teach to develop in the learner the skill to send messages clearly and receive messages correctly
Learners should be taught to communicate clearly. Communication takes place in three ways: verbal (the content of the message, the choice, and arrangement of words; this can be oral or written), non-verbal (the message we send through our body language), and paraverbal (how we say what we say – the tone, pacing and volume of voices)
There is a need to caution the learners of the verbal and non-verbal communication
Teach the learners to use language that is correct, precise, grammatical, coherent, and accurate in order to communicate clearly and precisely their thoughts and feelings
Help students expand their vocabularies to enhance their communication skills. Teach them to speak as many languages as they can. A multilingual has an edge over a monolingual or Bilingual
The most effective way to teach language and communication is the experiential way. Make them experience sending and receiving messages in verbal, non-verbal, and para-verbal manner
Make the classroom a place for the interplay of minds and hearts. The teacher facilitates dialogue among learners and between him/her and the students because in the exchange of words, there is also an exchange of ideas
