Individual Analysis
The Purpose of this assessment is to evaluate myself as a
good communicator, what part of my communication skills and
patterns I need to improve and also what I learned from this
assessments. Below are the following questions to evaluate
myself.
1. How am I at articulating my needs, opinions, views, or
concerns?
Answer: I always had a hard time expressing myself to let the
people know how I felt or what is my opinion due to my lack of
confidence. Although, I know I want to say it, but I was just too
scared to tell the truth information could be hurtful or
offensive to people.
2. How am I as a listener?
Answer: a good listener, to me, when someone was talking or
giving a speech, I must always listened for me to be able to
understand what had been said. For example, when I was in MAs rs.
Hom class, If I dont pay attention,be still, or listen, I do not
have any idea what was Mrs. Hom saying about the lecture. It is
very important if I am being attentive and active for listening
because that is how I can learned in the class.

3. What aspects of my nonverbal behavior are effective? What can

be improved?
Answer: My aspects of nonverbal behavior are effective when I try
to show my facial expressions. People at work know exactly if Im
in the bad and good mood. My facial expressions obviously can say
a lot. I cannot fake it. By improving my nonverbal behavior was
by learning how to manage by me being stress. It is best for me
to take a time out. I would take a moment to calm myself down
before I would do anything.
4. What are my communication strengths?
Answer: My communications strengths are, is that I can talk to
just about anyone. I enjoy talking with people. My other strength
is that I had the ability to listen as well as to respond. I
enjoy having conversation with people from different cultures,
because it gives me a chance to learn more about their lifestyle.
5. What are my communication weaknesses?
Answer: My weaknesses in communication are, is when I talk in
front of a very large group of people or when I have to speak in
front of the class I become nervous, because of thinking that
they are more focused on me than in the topic that I will be
presenting. I am trying to work on these weaknesses to be able to
work on my next presentation in our class.
6. What is it like to have a conversation with me?

Answer: Having conversation with me is easy, depending on the

topic being discussed. I sometimes may be too honest with my
answer and do not think before answering, then I realized later
that people would get hurt and offended from what I had said.

Summary: from this assignment, I learned that in communication,

verbally or nonverbally is a very powerful tool to communicate.
Knowing my strengths and weaknesses, I will be able to
communicate much more efficiently in front of the class or in
front of a very large group of people.
