~ Making eye contact ~
When speaking with someone or greeting somebody, especially an older person, always look into their eyes. If you look down or away, it appears as if you have no confidence in yourself. Studies have shown that people who make more eye contact with others are perceived by the other person as being…
…more dominant and powerful.
…more warm and personable.
…more attractive and likeable.
…more qualified, skilled, competent and valuable.
…more trustworthy, honest and sincere.
…more confident and emotionally stable.
Practise on your schoolmates and your teacher. It will feel great!
