1. Relationships & Communication
What is "relationships" and "communication"?
"Relationship" and "communication" is the connection you make with people and how you talk to them. Every relationship or connection you have is different depending on the person, which allows you to talk to them differently. When you are talking to a teacher online, your relationship should be strictly professional, therefore you must talk to them in a professionally manner.
