Celebrating the Resounding Success of The S3 Project (Students' Safe Spaces)! 🎉

From May 27 to June 22, 2024, our school transformed key areas into welcoming, inclusive spaces for students to study, relax, and connect. The project was a huge success, thanks to the hard work and dedication of our amazing community!

The Jura Park, Nursing Building, 4th Floor Canteen, and Satellite Canteen of the Dentistry Building were reimagined as vibrant, comfortable hubs that fostered a sense of belonging and well-being for all.

Let's keep building on this momentum and continue making our school a place where everyone can thrive. Together, we're shaping a brighter future for our students, faculty, employees, and the DMSFI community. 💪

Q: How to control stress and anxiety? I am unable to maintain eye contact while asking questions or while making communication with my teachers. Can you please give some tips to how to make good eye contact??

A: First of all, try and think about why you feel like you shouldn’t make eye contact with your teachers. What thoughts go through your mind? What is it about your teachers that intimidates you? What is it that makes you feel uncomfortable? Is there something about your culture that makes you feel that way? You can use the 50-70 rule. Basically, when having a conversation with someone, you can maintain eye contact for 50% of the time if you are speaking and 70% of the time if you are listening. Your teachers are people just like you. Maybe if you stop thinking about them as people to be scared of, you would be able to establish eye contact with them.
