Introduction
It is a world of technology. We are living in a digital era. The most
essential and indispensable technology we use every day is Internet. With the
widespread advent of personal computers and portable smartphones, we are
creating a virtual society in which we connect with people online through
social media.

Lack of face-to-face communication prompts people’s absence of representing
their verbal expressions and using proper body language. Oral communication is
a way to deliver information through verbal language which people organize and
express by spoken voice messages. Verbal communication is applicable to a wide
range of situations from formal presentations to daily casual conversations.
Without practicing enough face-to-face communication, people are inclined to choose wrong words or long sentences conveying their opinions and thoughts. Body language, as a non-verbal communication including gestures, body posture, eye contact, and facial expressions, is the setting of a face-to-face interaction. From the hand wave, we can interpret a massage “help” or “goodbye”; we can feel the happiness from smile on a person’s face; lowered heads may mean they are shy or ashamed.
