In my view, talking with people is very necessary to develop social skills, especially communication skills. In fact, in your life, you have to communicate with many people like your friends, your teachers, your colleagues. Provided that you gain more valuable experience through their story and improve your confidence. Take me for example, I’m an introverted person and 5 years ago I stroke with holding a conversation with new friends because I felt very scared and nervous while I talk with them. As a result, I decided not to be friends with my classmates. However, my English teacher gave me some useful advice to deal with it and I still remember he said that. I must be faced with my fear because only that way helps me to enhance confidence to communicate with others.
