▶ Your Answer :
Nowadays, many people communicate with others by using different methods. Some people might prefer face to face communication while others like to use other ways such as email and telephone calls. In my opinion, e-mailing or phone calling will be better than face to face communication. To begin with, it is cost and time saving when you communicate with an email or telephone calls. Most of the people in these days have busy lives and thus, it is difficult to meet up with somebody and spend time with them at particular places. By using an email/phone calls, you can communicate with your friends even though you do not actually meet them. Also, it is not necessary to look for suitable meeting places which can waste your precious time and money. Moreover, both email and phone calls are convenient to keep the proof. If there is an important conversation going on you can record the contents while calling over the phone and for the email, you can get written evidence which can refer it in the future. However, It is difficult to retain the information when it comes to face to face communication as some people might feel unpleasant if you record the conversation directly in front of them. Perhaps, some people prefer face to face communication as they think that they can feel the other’s emotions more distinctly through facial expression and body languages, I disagree with them as we can also feel it clearly over their voices and written words. In conclusion, I believe face to face communication is less effective than email or phone calls. However, it can be varies depend on the situation and other crucial factors such as financial status and relationship of partners to a person. Thus, it is significant to utilize the more suitable methods of the situation. |
