There are 4 different types of communication and I can share my experience by helping you out to solve the assignment.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Verbal Communication:

  • Communication with voice
  • Provides active listening
  • Body language is equally important.

2. Non-Verbal:

  • Body language is the most important
  • Communicating without using the words

3. Visual communication:

  • Listening contents through photos and videos

4. Written communication:

  • Serves as record
  • Does not require tone

So in day today aspect we come across almost all type of communication. To answer the discussed question

1. Did the variety of communication surprised you?

I would say yes. I can say unknowingly I have experienced various types.

2. Did you find that your were more involved in one type of communication?

I would say yes. People may like communication type depending on their interest and skill set. So according to me even I have involved in my life with one set of communication and I am trying to use it more.

3. Which one(s) is/are most involved?

So it differs from people to people. I like verbal communication, because I am good at speaking with good tone and voice. Also, I am attracted towards visual communication because one picture will talk more than what an essay would communicate.
