Talk Gym - Strengthen your powers of communication

Everything in life goes better with a good set of communication skills. And this is the place where you can develop them.
There are three elements to the resource:
Assessing your skills, learning why communication skills matter,and building your strengths as a communicator

1. Assess your current fitness

   The Talk Gym app on Facebook gives you a chance to find out what you're like to talk to - by asking the people who know you best.

   Just answer six simple questions about yourself, then nominate some friends or family to answer the same questions about you. Their answers appear anonymously in a graph, so you don't find out who said what, and the results could be very interesting. Life changing, even!

   So, give it a go. Then, come back to Talk Gym and get to work on building those communication skills.

2. What communication skills do you need for...

   • friendships
   • family life
   • education
   • employment

   Do you know what skills will help you be a good friend? What skills will help you get a job? What skills will help you get on with your parents? What skills will help you at school? Find out and see how well your own skills match up.

3. Build your strengths at...

   • Listening
   • Being clear
   • Group discussions
   • Interviews
