It’s better to criticize people privately because most people usually become ashamed being criticized in front of others. The third one is knowing the way of expressing our criticisms. We should have in our mind that criticizing people should be done in respectful manners. We should focus on the intended specific matter and don’t relate it to other things. In other words we should not over generalize it.
