1. Introduction
Body language is a silent language in communication by using gestures, facial expressions, eye contacts and spatial distance. Body language is multifaceted and is very essential and effective to assist language teaching especially at the primary English teaching level. It is known to all that before the existence of language, our ancestors had been able to use the body language to make the fundamental communication in their daily lives. Nevertheless, there were rare people who took up the theoretical research of the body language especially in the artistic respect until 19th century. |
