Looking elsewhere while your talking due to them not being able to listen properly individual(s) expressions have many different meanings due to their culture
An example in the work place could be for a young individual who has special needs like speech impairment or autism. You need to be aware on how to approach these young individuals and speak appropriately according to their disability. For example speaking slowly and clearly and down to the young individuals eye level so they are aware that you are speaking to them and also so they understand more in which you need to explain things in a shorter text so the young individual does not get confused, and also by using hand gestures by pointing to what your are trying to explain to them or what you're trying to teach them.
Facial expressions are a good way of finding out how somebody is feeling and it can also be a way of which somebody talks.

They may have their arms crossed due to being angry or they feel tense, they may shrug their shoulders or raise their arms due to indifference, or they may even have slouched shoulders in which this may mean that they don't feel confident.
Gestures are often used such as hand or head movements to reveal or hold back their feelings. In can also be used to make a point or to add emphasis within the communication.

impatient.
Touch is a vital part when it comes to non-verbal communication but you need to always ensure that you use touch appropriately and observe how the apposing individual reacts to your gesture. An individual could feel uncomfortable if you touch them on the arm to get their attention even though you know that there is nothing meant behind the gesture. Also certain cultures don't allow touch as a way of communicating so always ensure you are aware of certain individual(s) backgrounds.
Tone of voice is a good way of telling how somebody is feeling as it could be a normal, high, or low tone pitch. Voice tone is vital when understanding a child or adults communication as it can vary from time to time. Quiet voice tone may indicate nervousness in one adult whereas in others in could generally be just the way they speak. Ensuring that you observe each individual(s) tone will allow you to communicate effectively and efficiently.
