Is Face to Face Communication Better than Other Types of Communication？

Nowadays， with the development of technology， many modern forms of communication， such as phone calls and email， have stepped into our life. Facing with these， the traditional way of communication — face-to-face communication， seems to be left behind the times. But in fact， this is not actually true. For me， noting can parallel with face-to-face communication. The following reasons can account for my opinion.

For one thing， face-to-face communication allows us to make an interactive conversation. For example， we can clear away the misunderstanding in time. Because a person’s tone of voice or facial expression often reflects his mood， while in other kinds of communication it’s hard for us to perceive the subtle changes of one’s emotion. For another， face-to-face communication can deepen the interpersonal relationship. For instance， trust and respect between businesses partners can be established even with a firm handshake.

In a word， face-to-face communication improves the relationship among people and it is the best kind of communication. All the other types are merely the complement of it.
