Background
noise - Background
noise can distract the person from doing something or speaking and can make
them forget what they were saying so they would end up repeating themselves. They may be bored of what’s being said so
they make background noise to annoy the person. Background noise always happens in day-to-day basis
there's always some noise that distracts us from what we are doing (the wind,
people talking, alarms) because what we are talking about might be interesting
but not that interesting having something distract us can make us forget what
we where talking about. Here's an example ( the wind or people talking)
Lack of
concentration - A
lack of concentration results in poor listening skills and additional arguing.
Even though conflicts are major barriers to communication. They may choose
this as they may get bored from what someone is saying and they loss track of
what’s been said because they decide to switch off. There are many things that can make us lose
our concentration ( lack of sleep, Stress, lack of exercise) lack of sleep can
make you more tired and forgetting what your even saying which then this makes
you stressed because you cant remember what your saying which plays on your
mind. Your tone of voice may get quite
as your thinking of what to say next. Here's an example ( lack of sleep
or stress)
Background noise - To
overcome this barrier block out the background noise but either ignoring it or
go into a quite place quick then you would be able to concentrate a lot more
because you can think. Background noise is a big thing in
the working life sometimes people will need to learn to block out from the
noise or find ways to stop hearing the noise. Having other noises in your ears
can make you very stressed and make you stop doing what your doing and think
about other things that aren't important. Here are some examples :
- If possible shut the door and
windows
- If you can work with music listen to the radio quietly with headphones
- Work in an area where other people are working quietly
- If you can work with music listen to the radio quietly with headphones
- Work in an area where other people are working quietly
Lack
of concentration – to overcome this barrier find the things
that are distracting you and block them out or if there are things on your mind
then try think of solutions of how to overcome the things your dealing with in
your head. There are many ways to help you concentrate like medication or
therapy. Turn
off televisions and radios. These can be very distracting when trying to
concentrate. Inevitably, a favorite song will come on the radio or an amusing
commercial will come on the television screen. When possible, work away from
people having unrelated conversations. Do not have things like iPod's or mp3
players stuck in your ears while trying to focus on your work. You should
always do one task at a time as this make you more focused on one thing instead
of millions of different stuff that’s how you loose your lack of concentration.
Here are some examples:
. Medication
. Try
cutting down on caffeine consumption
. Try
focusing on one task at a time
. herbal
supplements
. Therapy
Language-
language skills needed to interact in social situations for example, when
speaking to a friend on the telephone. or people that speak a different
language then they need to learn how to speak a language to understand what's
been said.
language skills are very important in the
day-today basis as our culture is very mixed with different languages so
anything and everything someone gets it always has the different languages so
its easy for other people as also ourselves to read. Or when your in work and
you have to help someone that speaks a different language you need to learn how
to speak to this person in there language so they would understand.
to overcome this barrier you need to do
many things to help yourself to learn how to speak another language or people
that need to speak our langauge.or have a translator around at all time to
translate what's been said by people to help them understand. also you need to
understand exactly what do to about the situation. there are also other ways to
such as:
- speak slowly and clearly
- Always show respect for the local
language
- Make an effort to learn some words
- Know which language is spoken
Distractions -
distractions
- distractions occur all the time everyday. getting distracted all the time and
make you forgot what your doing which can make you very stressed out as you
cant remember what you where doing and how you where doing it.Distractions as a
whole are a huge drain on every aspect of who we are. It takes our focus away
from what we should be doing – our tasks, goals and purpose. Distractions are
caused by: the lack of ability to pay attention; lack of interest in the object
of attention; or the great intensity, novelty or attractiveness of something
other than the object of attention. Distractions come from both external
sources, and internal sources
to
overcome this barrier, there are so many ideas that you can choose from to stop
getting you distracted by things. The littlest things can distracted you and
just because everyone is either doing other things and making noises you want
to know what is going on so you get distracted from what your doing and then

forgetting
what you needed to do. here are some ways from stopping distracting yourself
- Focus on the task at hand
-
Give yourself some breaks
-
Schedule

Avoid procrastinating
Cultural - cultural is
a collection of belief systems, cultural
systems,
and worldviews that
relate humanity to spirituality and,
sometimes, to moral values. Many
religions have narratives, symbols, traditions and sacred
histories that
are intended to give meaning
to life or
to explain the origin of life or
the universe.
They tend to derive morality, ethics, religious
laws or
a preferred lifestyle from
their ideas about the cosmos and human
nature
To
overcome this
barrier, you will need to learn how to respect someone from a different
religion and respect what they have to say and how they do things in a
different way from what your doing. Here are some ways –

modulating
your voice -
This
means when you project your voice when speaking, can use different tones and
pitch in your voice.
This skill would be used for when you
project your voice when speaking, can use different tones and pitch in your
voice.it also shows that your interested in the
work and your showing your understanding on what the thing your reading is
about. Modulating your voice is essential for a good public speaker. It makes
speak interesting to get people listening to you. Here's an example ( a
teacher)
Engaging the audience- When speaking you involves the audience
within your speech, you are able to keep them interested but the tone in your
voice. When speaking you involves the audience within your speech, you are able
to keep them interested but the tone in your voice. The
audience is much more likely to pay attention to what you have to say if you
make an effort to engage them you always introduce yourself in your presentation
which gets the audience listening. Speak like your enjoying what your saying
speak clear which for them they will understand. Here's an example ( market
traders )
Changing intonation- The way your voice changes such as rises
or falls when you speaking, sometimes it can change the meaning of the words.
This skill will happen in meetings or when someone important is talking to the
group of people and the changing of the voice when they are being serious/nice.
learning
English Intonation in American English is the way the voice
rises and
falls while
you speak. Very often, it
changes the main idea of what is said, going beyond
the exact meaning of the words to indicate how the speaker feels. (lee evens)
Body
language –
body language is a
form of mental and physical ability of human on verbal communication which
consists of body posture, gestures facial expressions and eye
movements Humans send and interpret such signals almost entirely
subconsciously. It’s a way of communication I think that it’s good to show your
body language which shows if your listen or concentrating on what is said. Body
language is an important part of communication which can constitute 50% or more
of what we are communicating. The world's best business communicators
have strong body language: a commanding presence that reflects confidence,
competence, and charisma. Its all about the eye contact too much eye contact
and people may feel scared and the way your body movement is. Here's an
example (lee evens)

Using
smileys or emotions – using smileys or emotions shows how your
feeling which then the other person can tell how your feeling by seeing this
emotion. This may be used on social network sites or through emails. Smileys
and emoticons are used in written forms of communication to represent
emotions and/or facial expressions of the author which are
often lost in the process due to a lack of human emotion being
easily conveyed through text. Emoticons are formed out of keyboard
characters (such as punctuation and letters) and are often made to resemble
faces. Common examples being variations of :-) and :-( where the colons
represent eyes, the dash represents a nose and the bracket represents a mouth
(either happy or sad respectively when looked at sideways).
Here's an
example ( texts msn email )
Grammar and spelling – Punctuation
is the art of marking off, by means of certain conventional signs, the
divisions of a sentence so as to bring out the meaning more clearly and
grammar
is the art of using words according to set conventions and rules. Spelling is,
quite simply, the correct sequence of letters for words. Correct spelling
improves the overall presentation of your work and will help with your
confidence in writing. Writing is constructed by putting sentences in
sequence one after another and
if a single sentence is read aloud it should be understandable
here’s an example ( writing a letter)
Structure - A
good structure will help you to express yourself more clearly, whether in a
dissertation, an essay, a job application letter or a CV.
Clarify your thoughts and the purpose of
your communication before you start writing. In business communications,
clarity is more important than style. Also you need to
identify the key points, facts and themes and decide on the logical order for
what you have to say. Use short and long sentences to make the reader want
to read more as because they aren't to long, to long sentences are just boring
and would put off the person and always put your point in the first line and
then ass the supporting information afterwards. Having a good strong beginning
and ending first
will make an immediate and positive impression on the reader; the second will
remain in their mind after they have finished reading.
Here’s an example ( writing a email or story or email)
