Barriers And Solution To Communication (P3+M1)

Introduction
Barriers, everyone has them whether they admit it or not. A barrier is something that can either stop you from understanding what is said or stopping the other person/people from not being able to understand what you are saying.

Physical Barrier
A physical barrier is barrier that has something to do with your senses these can be thing such as hearing impairment or sight impairment but sometimes they can be to do with a physical disability such as being in a wheel chair.
Solution
The way you can solve a physical barrier such as hearing impairment or sight impairment is by either speaking louder or the person with the hearing impairment could get a hearing aid or to solve the visual impairment they could either right bigger or the person with the visual impairment could get glasses.
Language barrier
There can be quiet a few language barriers these can be things such as them speaking another language or having a strong ascent.
Solution
The solution to these barriers could be either learn the language the person is speaking or try and get a translator but if they have a strong ascent you could ask them to try and speak clearer.
Perceptual barrier
Perceptual barriers can be things such as people stereotyping people just because of the way they look or dress.
Solution
A solution could be to gain an understanding of a person before you judge them. This is most likely where the phrase "don't judge a book by a cover".
