Study Notes
Active Listening
- Showing you are listening can be done through maintaining eye contact, nodding, and facial expressions that indicate engagement and interest.

- A key element of active listening is giving the speaker your undivided attention, which involves putting aside distractions such as phones and personal thoughts.
Nonverbal Communication
- Nonverbal communication, such as body language and tone of voice, can also 'speak' loudly and convey just as much information as spoken words.
