description: Abstract 
Communication skills are needed in every job, including that of an educator. Communication skills are acquired slowly but through much listening, observing, and reading practice. Many people have brilliant ideas but need to improve at communicating them. Thomas J. Stanley's research shows that a person's success at work is attributed to good interpersonal skills, which rank third after honesty, which ranks first, followed by discipline. IQ ranks 21st. Based on this data, it is crucial to learn communication skills. This communication factor is determined by the ability to know oneself and to understand others (intrapersonal and interpersonal). Formal education organized by the government has identified three factors that should be addressed in education. These three factors are (1) cognitive, (2) affective, and (3) psychomotor. Over the years, they have been implemented at different levels of education. Teachers in primary schools, junior high schools, and high schools have already implemented these three factors. In addition, through the Ministry of Education and Culture, the government continues to improve and has identified 18 aspects that can holistically shape students. These eighteen character aspects include religiosity, honesty, tolerance, discipline, hard work, friendliness and communicativeness, love of peace, love of reading, concern for the environment, social awareness, and responsibility. The three educational domains, cognitive, affective, and psychomotor, are reflected in the 18 aspects proposed by the Ministry of Education and Culture. Although efforts have been made to ensure that education can address these three domains, daily reality shows that the younger generation does not need help to communicate effectively. They have yet to understand themselves and their abilities. Observations indicate that the younger generation needs to express their ideas more effectively. They struggle to stand before the class, even when simply greeting and expressing their hopes. For instance, when asking students to open or close a lecture, they still struggled to stand and deliver greetings and their expectations, even when promised a bonus or an increase in their grades. Therefore, there is a need to cultivate the skill or ability to understand oneself and others to achieve practical communication skills. It is suspected that this condition is not recognized early, particularly in primary education. This research aims first to describe the problem of students' low ability to express their ideas effectively. Second, it aims to design a humanistic learning model that can be implemented in lectures to help students understand themselves and others (interpersonal and intrapersonal). The research combines qualitative and quantitative research methods, following these steps: observation (field visits), distributing questionnaires, interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), qualitative and quantitative data analysis, and finally, producing a research report.
