| The growth of effective communication between guidance and counseling teachers and students is important to achieve the goal of guidance and counseling at schools. Effective and quality communication will psychologically stimulate students to get involve intensively in the treatment process. This condition will encourage students to open themselves to understand their personal characteristics, and are willing to work together to explore various alternatives for self-development, better decision making and choices, and solving their problems. Students who are less open to guidance and counseling teachers are motivated by various factors, including low professional competence of guidance and counseling teachers in developing effective communication. Thus, guidance and counseling teachers need to have communication competence in order to improve the effectiveness of providing guidance and counseling services. The dimensions of the communication shall include: (a) empathy behavior, (b) acceptance and respect of students, (c) the warmth and caring, (d) openness and sincerity, and (e) concreteness and specificity of expression. |
