Course image TECHNICAL ENGLISH AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS
Renewable Energy

In our everyday life, we need to communicate with others.  A person who is able to speak appropriately while maintaining eye contact with the audience, uses varied vocabulary and articulate speech to suit the need of the audience is generally said to be an effective speaker. Similarly, an effective writer should be able to use written words in various styles and techniques to communicate his/her message and ideas to the readers. One should have the ability to listen carefully, write and speak clearly in any situation. Therefore good reading, writing, speaking and listening skills are essential for effective communication.
