🧠💬 “First Impressions: Fact or Fiction?”"Have you ever judged someone within seconds of meeting them? You’re not alone. Studies in psychology show that humans form first impressions in as little as seven seconds. These impressions are often based on appearance, body language, tone of voice, and even posture. While first impressions can be accurate, they are also prone to biases. Our brains take mental shortcuts—called heuristics—to make fast judgments, but these can lead to stereotyping or unfair assumptions. For example, a firm handshake might be interpreted as confidence, while avoiding eye contact might be misread as dishonesty, when in fact, it could be anxiety or cultural difference. Understanding how we form impressions—and questioning them—helps us become better communicators, especially in multicultural settings like the ESL classroom."🧠 Vocabulary to Pre-Teach1. Impression🗣️ Pronunciation: /ɪmˈpreʃ.ən/✅ Meaning: The feeling or opinion you get about someone or something when you first see or meet them.💬 Example: My first impression of her was that she is very friendly.2.
