On the importance of oral communication

In social life, oral communication has always played a decisive role. Having strong oral communication skills is conducive to promoting students' thinking development and laying the foundation for their lifelong study, life and work.

The core of oral communication is "communication", which focuses on communication between people, not the simple sum of listening and speaking. In the past, most listening and speaking training involved one person speaking and others listening. Language information was transmitted in one direction, with little exchange of ideas and little collision of ideas.

Oral communication emphasizes the exchange of information. People who participate in communication should not only listen carefully, but also answer the conversation in a timely manner and express their opinions and ideas.
