I learned that making the connection is an important part of communication because it helps build trust and a better relationship with the person you are speaking with. It is not just about giving information, but also about making the other person feel heard, respected, and understood.

I learned that advanced listening is more than just hearing what someone says. It also means paying attention to their tone, emotions, and even body language. One thing that stood out to me is the importance of repeating and reflecting what the other person said, because it shows that you are really listening and trying to understand them.

Body language plays an important role in sales and in supporting student success within Admissions. Effective, unbiased listening is one of the first steps in building strong rapport with applicants, and it helps guide the conversation toward a successful enrollment. When applicants feel heard and understood, they are more comfortable being open and honest with Admissions Specialists throughout the enrollment process.

Students are coming into our institute already knowing the information, but truly looking for a sounding board and someone to  speak with to support their decision. 

I thoroughly enjoyed the information shared within this module. I learned that I can definitely commit to being more open-minded and flexible in understanding each student's individual needs and situation.

You really want to pull something out that will attract them to call you back with interest-
