Teaching Your Child the Language of Social Success

Teaching Your Child the Language of Social Success

Do you know what nonverbal language is? Even if you can't define it, you speak it everyday through your postures, gestures, facial expressions, and tone of voice, and you must constantly read these signals from others. In fact, nonverbal messages can carry up to 90 percent of the meaning of human interaction and contribute significantly to social, academic, and professional success. yet even though we recognize the importance of nonverbal communication, we have generally left the teaching of this essential language to chance.
Now, parents and teachers can help develop nonverbal skills so that will be able to communicate more effectively and to interact with others more successfully.
In teaching Your Child The Language Of Social Success, clinical psychologists Marshall Duke and Stephen Nowicki and educator Elisabeth Martin descibe and explain the methods and rules of nonverbal communication. Together they have created an easy--to--use guide which offers definitions and techniques for assessing a child's strenghts and weakness in this unspoken realm, as well as case studies, illustrations, and exercises for teaching or improving nonverbal skills at home or in the classroom.
