In this assignment, I am going to write about my communication skills in three periods of my life and how they have been developed. First, I would like to talk about how I was when I was a little. When I was about five or six years’ old, I was spoiled between my family just like most of the other kids.

I was always with my brother and I felt safe around him, but when we become at the seventh age, my dad couldn’t have enrolled us in the same school because he was told that I was born at the last days of November and they would accept me in the school with the next generation. Therefore, my dad decided that I am going to a private school so that I can be with my generation.
At the first day of school I was afraid to be alone without having my brother around me. I just hated that school because I was just by myself, and my classmates were not nice to me at all. The boys and some girls were very mean and like to be bullying for example, they always take my stuff and refused to return them back when I ask them to,

I will begin my essay by explaining what effective and appropriate communication consists of, and follow up with my argument on how effective and appropriate I am in my interpersonal relationships. As I continue I will examine my empathy and why I am strong in this aspect of communication, followed by my deliberation of my conversation management and why I am weak in this category and how I could possibly improve. As I near the conclusion of my paper I will focus on my interpersonal communication motivation, knowledge, and skills.
