blog for week 2 assignment


Active listening- indicating you are listening, rephrasing repeating- what they say.

Empathetic- taking what’s being said and constructing it. Showing that you care or you comprehend for others.

By listening to someone you have a better understanding of what there trying to get across, there for you can communicate better.

These skills can help you avoid the main workplace conflict, by being a good listener and being able to communicate, knowing that the point is getting across because you have that ability to communicate if not then the workers are not aligned. They may not meet the objective, and there would then be no meaning dialogue or discussion and there for no progress being done. Conflict in the work place is point blank just bad communication.

Blog for week one


                my intentions for these class

    My intentions for this class are to better my communication skills with people. Hopefully it will help me be more outgoing towards others, where it would be a problem for me to just walk up to someone or a customer and be able to talk and communicate with others without it being a big deal. Being able to tune myself in to listen better to what others have to say.

   To better myself all the way around in the social world, to get a good grade in the class, coming out with more knowledge on how to communicate with others.

blog 3 cover letter paragraph 2


I have been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience working at a vet’s office for one year as a kennel technician. I know how to fold surgery laundry, insert catheters, examine x-rays, analyze procedures, and provide proper restraints. I am currently enrolled in the veterinary technician program at Broadview University.  This program involves training in the musculoskeletal system, anatomical terms, species-specific terms, digestive system, urinary systems, and integumentary and endocrine systems. I also bring to this application customer service and communication skills.
