The Advantage of English Online Tutoring Jobs

The Advantage of English Online Tutoring JobsEnglish online tutoring jobs are, literally, just that - online. Students do not have to commute to a teacher in order to attend a class. In fact, most times, students can get some or all of their work done at home, or even by cell phone. Most online English tutor jobs offer the chance to work from home, but most do not provide many incentives for doing so.The average student in America pays out-of-pocket tuition fees every semester. This amount is determined by your state, and the total can be very high. In some states, the student has to pay tuition fees to be eligible for a scholarship, and many times this would be the same tuition fee per semester as in the local school.Even if you are qualified for free public tuition and you do not qualify for a scholarship, you will still pay tuition fees. At the end of the day, the cost of college education in America is extremely high. Many parents cannot afford to pay the tuition fees for their c hildren, and even those who have the means of paying their tuition fees will find it difficult to do so.English online tutoring jobs are different than traditional classes, because the student does not have to pay to attend. Many English online tutor jobs include a reduced tuition fee, or free education, depending on the employer.Many English online tutor jobs also include a guarantee of a job. Many of these job descriptions will say something like 'Awarded a work opportunity with an established educational institution.' If you do not receive the work opportunity after three months, you do not have to worry about not receiving a paycheck.Online tutoring is not an easy task, as the student must be willing to give up much of their free time. Aswell, there are many dangers, especially in today's economy. With rising unemployment rates, employers are less likely to hire people that they do not know or trust.For many parents, English online tutoring jobs are the only viable solution to t he rising costs of college education. If the college student chooses to take out loans to cover the cost of tuition fees, then it becomes a financial burden that is only going to get worse.

Take The Exam If You Are Taking The AP Class

Take The Exam If You Are Taking The AP Class Do you have a few Advanced Placement classes in your schedule? Now, youre not required to take the corresponding AP test come May, but the class should be preparing you for said test. However, an easy question to ask would be: should I take the AP test? The answer is simply, yes. Heres why College credit for cheap -One AP test will cost you $87 (as of 2010). Some school districts may even offer financial assistance to students taking AP tests. That may sound like a lot of money, but on the other hand, many colleges will award you college credit for good scores. That generally means a 4 or a 5 on any test. Compared to the cost of taking a college course, $87 is mere peanuts. Each college has different policies towards awarding credit for AP tests, so be sure to check them out. For example, here are the AP policies for the top five colleges in the nation: Harvard Princeton Yale MIT Stanford Bloggers personal note: my younger brother was able to graduate college in 3.5 years instead of the usual 4. That one less semester saved $15,000 in tuition. Compare that to the $696 spent on the eight AP tests he took. Thats a bargain if there ever was one. Valuable experience -If the college youre interested in does not award any credit for AP tests, it may not be worth your while to take the exam. However, taking the corresponding AP class will still be a valuable experience. It will be as close as you can get to a college course without actually taking a college course. In addition, taking the AP test will give you a very good idea of how youll fare when you do take the college course. Extra notes about AP exams Advanced Placement tests are scored on a 1-5 scale. The CollegeBoard has its own interpretations of what each score means: 5 extremely well qualified 4 well qualified 3 qualified 2 possibly qualified 1 no recommendation There has been criticism from students that the CollegeBoards scoring is somewhat inflated. For example, its a well-known secret that the AP Statistics test is fairly easy when you walk in with your TI-83. Heres a possibly more realistic interpretation of the scores: 5 extremely likely to pass the equivalent college course 4 likely to pass the equivalent college course 3 may struggle with the equivalent college course 2 very likely to struggle with the equivalent college course 1 thank you for your $87!

How to Approach Writing Supplemental Essays

How to Approach Writing Supplemental Essays ACT SAT Prep and College Admissions Blog Just when you think you’ve made headway on your college applications - filling out your information, getting letters of recommendation, writing your personal statement - supplemental essays hit you. These supplement essays for college can seem overwhelming. Many schools require multiple essays, and many offer multiple prompts. So how should you approach writing supplemental essays? 1. Make a list of all of the supplements you’ll have to write Compiling a list of all of the essays you have to write will help you plan out your writing process. Some schools don’t require essays; some schools require five or six. Understanding the requirements for each school on your list is a first key step. Set yourself internal due dates for when you plan on finished each set of supplemental essays. Once you have all of the prompts together, you will be able to see how you can reuse certain material across prompts for different schools. If given the choice, consider choosing prompts for different schools that are related to one another. That being said, make sure you are tailoring your essays to individual schools. Never copy and paste. 2. Write your supplements by school Each application that you turn in should look different because each school you are applying to is different. The supplemental essays are your opportunity to tailor your application to specific schools. Each school is going to have a unique personality in the questions it’s asking. Getting to know what the school is looking for is the first step towards tackling its supplements. You should look to the admissions website for ideas. For example, Stanford’s supplemental essays are different in nature to Yale’s supplemental essays. On Stanford’s website, it states: We want to hear your individual voice in your writing. And the nature of the questions, such as the “Write a letter to your future roommate” question suggest that. Stanford is looking for you to show your individuality and how you stand out from other candidates. Yale, on the other hand, asks supplemental questions that are almost all focused on finding out how each applicant will contribute as a member of the Yale community and how he/she will align with the school’s values. Both schools are looking for unique individuals, but the tone of their questions varies. You should think about how all of your supplements for each school will then build off of each other and fit together. And while it is perfectly fine to recycle essay material from school to school, make sure that each set of supplements are tailored towards the individual school you’re applying to. 3. Addressing the Why This College? Essay Most schools requiring supplemental essays will ask a version of the “Why this college?” prompt. These essays should be addressed in two parts: 1) What can you, as an applicant, add to this school and 2) What can you, as a student, gain from this specific school? One major mistake you should avoid in these essays is being too vague. Rather, you want to show that you have researched specific programs, classes, professors, etc. at each individual school. Show what you can add to these schools and what you can learn from them. Especially for your safety schools, you want to make sure that you’re displaying genuine interest. Another mistake is writing comparatively across schools. Instead of comparing School X and School Y, or even School X and “other schools”, focus only on the individual school. Comparatives tend to take on a negative tone, and you want to keep your application as positive as possible! Writing supplemental essays can be a daunting task. Set yourself deadlines, tackle the writing on a school-by-school basis, and tailor each essay to the individual school. For more insights into the admissions process, see this article, outlining 51 college admissions tips. Hannah Smith is a graduate of Stanford University and an Admissions Expert at InGenius Prep.

Union School

Union School Union School Union School was founded in 1919 as a school for the children of U.S. Marine Corps families stationed in Haiti. This was only for the elementary grades and the courses came from Washington, D.C. From 1920 to 1934 the school, then named Colony School, was located on Turgeau Avenue with one hundred and ten students attending classes. On June 10, 1934, the Marines departed and the Colony School was left with fourteen pupils twelve Americans and two Bristish. In September 1934 the school was transferred to Hasco with thirty five pupils. During that year, French was added as one of the subjects taught to all grades. With the help of benefits, raffles, bingos and plays, in addition to the tuition, the school was able to maintain an average of five teachers a year for the twenty to fifty students attending classes. In 1936 Hasco closed temporarily and the Colony School was forced to find a new location. During the following six years, the school moved several times. In September 1943 the school was reopened on the Champs de Mars and remained there for ten years. At that time the school policy was changed to accept qualified students of any nationality. They also decided to rename the school, calling it Union School. With the constant increase of enrollment came the idea of constructing a permanent building to house the school. Annual bazaars were held, and the money raised was put into a building fund. The Haitian government donated the site of the present buildings on Harry Truman Blvd. The school moved into this building in January 1954. In the early spring of 1958 it was recognized that more room was needed to take care of increasing enrollment. A new wing was added, enlarging the Kindergarten and adding two more rooms for the first and second grades. In September 1962 a new building was ope ned: it contained a stage, science laboratory and three classrooms which could be opened to serve as an auditorium or for other large room purposes. By 1960 there was a ninth and tenth grade; in 1962 eleventh was added, soon followed by the twelfth grade. Union School became accredited through sixth grade in 1963 and holds provisional accreditation for the higher grades. The new library, teachers lounge and book storage complex was added in October 1969. Union School Union School Union School is a private, coeducational, non-denominational Pre-K to Grade 12 school established in Haiti for the purpose of providing an American accredited program of studies in both English and French for students of all nationalities. The school consists of elementary grades Pre-K - 5, middle school grades 6 - 8 and high school grades 9 - 12. In August 2002, the school relocated to a spectacular new campus in Juvénat, a suburb of Port-au-Prince. This facility is housed on two acres, with two buildings, 38 classrooms, two computer labs, two science labs, a library with 12,000 volumes and a couple of sports fields. iframe id=iframe_container frameborder=0 webkitallowfullscreen= mozallowfullscreen= allowfullscreen= width=550 height=400 src=https://prezi.com/embed/8a6hbkojakam/?bgcolor=ffffffamp;lock_to_path=0amp;autoplay=0amp;autohide_ctrls=0amp;landing_data=bHVZZmNaNDBIWnNjdEVENDRhZDFNZGNIUE43MHdLNWpsdFJLb2ZHanI5L2sxYlpCSnlBUVRwcTRhRk9TS0NobVdRPT0amp;landing_sign=ortRvmYEMO6y_U-t5Owkj4oakXBjfxz4UHnBB5oag4A/iframe

Astronomy Tutor Notes Mercury Greatest Elongation

Astronomy Tutor Notes Mercury Greatest Elongation Astronomy tutor Dirk Wagner Notes Mercurys Greatest Elongation today on May 7th at 05:26 UT. Mercury will be well placed for observation in the evening sky, shining brightly at magnitude of 0.38. Over coming weeks, the distance between Mercury and the Sun will decrease each night, and it will gradually sink back into the Suns glare. So make use of todays event when you can see Mercury at its brightest. The altitude at which Mercury appears above the horizon at sunrise or sunset depends how steeply the line of the ecliptic is inclined to the horizon. If the plane of the ecliptic meet the horizon at a very shallow angle, Mercury will rise or set along a line which is almost parallel to the horizon, and a separation of 21 ° from the Sun along this line would correspond to a very low altitude in the sky. This pictured depicts the position of Mercury, Earth and the Sun in our solar system. After the success of our Observatory Visit article, astronomy tutor and TutorZ founder Dirk Wagner decided to write more about astronomical events, such as Mercurys greatest elongation.  If you want to know more about astronomical events talk to your local astronomy tutor.

9 Reasons Why Tutoring is the Perfect Job for College Students

9 Reasons Why Tutoring is the Perfect Job for College Students photo via Pexels.com 1. Youll likely have your own office or at least a quiet place to work. Working in fast food or at any business, really, can mean that youre in a noisy environment during your entire shift. If youre a person who is easily overwhelmed, this can put stressful parameters on yourself while youre at work. If youre a student tutor on your college campus, youll be placed in an environment thats quiet and serene. Tutoring centers are often located in libraries or offices that have a minimal noise level. So if youre looking for a job in a place where busybodies are limited a tutoring center is for you! 2. There will be slower and busier times of the semester. When I was a student tutor on campus, the beginning of the semester (when I was always most overwhelmed with my classes) were the slowest times of the semester. College students dont seek out tutoring in the first few weeks of college (unless theyre in a subject like Organic Chemistry 5000 that requires multiple hours of studying every evening). So when youre feeling most overwhelmed, your tutoring shifts will likely be pretty slow, meaning you can get your own work done while getting paid. Sure, not  all  tutoring jobs work like this but most of them will. Take advantage of this time make your money and keep to yourself. Youll be thankful for these days during Finals Week. At the end of the semester, youll be cramming for your exams just like everyone else. But on top of cramming for your own exam, there will likely be extended tutoring hours for students who need help cramming for their exams. The good thing about this is that youll be required to be in a tutoring center where you can focus when you get a spare minute. The bad thing could be that youre slammed with walk-ins who need help with all their classes and youll have to dedicate time to your own studies in the middle of the night. Most of my tutoring friends (and myself included) started studying for final exams way before they got close. Knowing we had to work Finals Week meant we stayed on top of our studies throughout the semester. 3. If youre struggling in your own classes, youll know a lot of tutors. One of the greatest parts of being a tutor is the people youll meet. Theyre responsible, on top of their game, knowledgeable in a variety of subjects, and genuinely nice people. Rarely will you meet a bunch of goof-offs who dont value their education. And if you happen to start stressing about your own classes and even if you start struggling hardcore, youll know exactly which people to turn to for help. 4. Your resume will look  stellar. Graduate schools and employers love seeing student tutor on applications and resumes. Because being a student tutor means you have certain qualities that others may not: including organization, teaching skills, and dependability. When have you ever met a tutor who isnt flexible, has terrible customer service, and thinks of only themselves? Probably never. All the student tutors I know are truly great people, and they value education. When managers of companies or potential graduate school committees see an application with this kind of previous experience, they are likely to put you at the top of the pile. They know you have a drive for success and a selflessness when it comes to helping other people achieve what theyre capable of. 5. Tutoring on campus is one of the more flexible job opportunities during college. Your classes and extra-curricular schedule is nuts, Im sure. So how in the world are you supposed to work a job in 6 or 8-hour shifts during college? Its practically impossible. Which is why tutoring is such a perfect job. Youll mostly be able to work your own hours whichever hours you set for yourself. If youre just not feeling it one day, you can  probably  call in. No ones really going to notice. via Pexels.com 6. Youll learn how to work with all kinds of people/students. If one things for sure, tutoring on campus means you have to have awesome customer service skills and the flexibility to work with all kinds of different people. Some students will walk in and expect you to do their homework for them, while others will come in with a very specific list of things they want to go over with you. 7. You will easily gain another supervisor who can write you a letter of recommendation. Letters of recommendation can be stressful. You want to ask people who can speak positively on your behalf about your dependability, leadership, and responsibility. How you handle yourself around professionals will follow you throughout your collegiate career and sometimes, early on, you dont anticipate this. If you know youre going to need someone to write a letter of recommendation, becoming a student tutor and asking your supervisor is one of the best things you can do for yourself. 8. Professors will respect you For the subjects youre tutoring, professors will respect that you work as a tutor to help their students with content. Reaching out to these professors will feel more collaborative instead of coming to them for help. My advice? Reach out to the professors for the classes youre going to be tutoring. Not only can they send students your way when theyre needing help, but itll get your name out there as a professional. 9. You wont actually feel like you work while youre in school. Tutoring just doesnt seem like work for some reason. I never came home exhausted and worn out from a long hard day. I enjoyed it. I got to meet students who were struggling in classes I remembered struggling in. I enjoyed giving them advice, talking to their professors, and helping them accomplish the goals they set for themselves. There were only a few times when I really dreaded having to go into work, and those times were mostly during the peak of the semester midterms and finals. If youre decently organized, you enjoy teaching others, and you can be depended on tutoring on campus is the perfect job for you. Its flexible, easy, and can provide you with a lot of references later on in life. Part of my tutoring experiences brought me to the conclusion that I should become a teacher. It helped me discover part of who I am.

Beating Out Competition in Group Interviews

Beating Out Competition in Group Interviews (image courtesy of www.staffingtalk.com) First and foremost, relax. You are going into an interview as you. Youve got your game face on, but thats your face. This is all about you fitting the job, not you contorting yourself for that job. If you dont feel comfortable doing the job you will be asked to do, then dont interview for it. Make sure that what youre going to do will help you do what you want. You will be ultimately working for someone, but if you cant get into it, get out of it. Go into the interview being honest with the interviewer about who you are and what your strengths and weaknesses are. Being genuine about yourself helps the interviewer gauge your level of competency for the job at hand better. Being you lets you be completely unique from everyone else in the group. If you want the position, use you to pop out. Next, make sure you know what youre getting into. If you go into the interview blind, chances are youre not the only one, but if you are, you will automatically get mentally demoted in the interviewers mind. Make sure you know what youre interviewing for. Whats the position? What are the responsibilities? Whats the company name? Motto? Business plan? Do a bit of research, say 30 minutes, and dig up some stuff on the position. This bit of info can let you form questions for the interviewer and build up answers. If youre prepared and the competition isnt, youve got an edge immediately. Speaking of questions, make sure youve practiced a few beforehand. Mock interviews are an excellent source of experience for their real-world counterparts. Dressing up, practicing your speaking voice, your business appearance, and your questions can help. You can also formulate questions the interviewer might ask and develop some answers. Even if the interviewer doesnt ask these questions, it can be helpful if they are similar. A word of warning though: do not rattle off a canned answer. This seems fake no matter what. Use your voice and word choice to answer in your way. Be honest. Dont pretend to know all the answers. If you dont know, simply saying that can be better than a more bold, but misleading statement. Its better to say you dont understand or dont know the answer than to muddle through something half-done. Asking questions can also help someone else in the group who doesnt speak up. Take notes. When you ask questions, write down the answers. When you have a question, write it down quietly and bring it up at the end when the interviewer asks if anyone has questions. This makes you stand out as a serious contender and allows you to bring up the topics you need more info on and retain that same info. (image courtesy of www.doncooper.com) Be you. If its a group interview, its about sieving through contenders to reach the one thats right for the position. If youre not right for the position, you will fall through. If you manage to change yourself to fit in with the position and end up with it, are you really sure you want to be in that position? Doing this can hurt the group or company youre interviewing for and then hurt you by being in a job youre not cut out for. This can also bite you in the butt if you cant perform in that position since your superiors might not recommend you when moving on. Group interviews can be a nerve-wracking environment and one that you will never get used to, but they can be an exciting chance to show the interviewer not just what youre made of, but how you stand out from the rest.

Pure and Applied Chemistry

Pure and Applied ChemistryPure and Applied Chemistry are two related fields of study in Chemistry. A pure Chemist is one who teaches and researches about the properties and reactions of pure chemical compounds, while an Applied Chemist is one who examines such compound in laboratory situations and has to then determine the most suitable mode of application for the application. There are very few such people in the world today.One has to have knowledge of the three main elements: boron, fluorine and chlorine. Pure and Applied Chemistry deal with all other relevant chemical compounds, but these three elements are the basis of most of the work in that field. The lab of a pure Chemist is hectic. He has to determine if a given compound is active, if it is toxic or if it would be harmful for human beings or animals. A Pure Chemist also has to decide if the compound has enough effects to offer in a solution, or if it would produce unwanted reactions in a battery.Pure and Applied Chemistry i s a research-based laboratory, which gives the most sensible research of chemical elements and their reactions. Pure and Applied Chemistry can only offer a maximum of knowledge and understanding to a pure Chemist, and can give a minimum of knowledge to a Pure and Applied Chemist.A Pure Chemist has to calculate the probable use of a compound for both industrial and domestic usage. A Pure Chemist can only present a variety of solutions for a given compound, so that the best applications can be made of it. Such compound cannot be used in a wide range of applications; hence the use of a test report must be done before the compound is applied. Pure and Applied Chemistry is never complete without a Pure Chemist. It is mostly the role of the Pure Chemist to help the Pure and Applied Chemists come up with the best possible solutions for each compound.Pure and Applied Chemistry is the only branch of Chemistry, which deals with the atoms of a molecule itself. It provides a lot of mathematical certainty for a given compound, which makes its application simple and straight forward.Pure and Applied Chemistry are one of the branches of Chemistry, which has the most delicate and specific duties. Chemistry cannot be concerned with chemical reactions alone, but also has to be concerned with such as are environmental reactions. Pure and Applied Chemistry is therefore a vital part of chemistry as it affects both the theoretical and practical side of the subject.Pure and Applied Chemistry is the safest and most logical way of studying and learning chemistry. While pure Chemists usually take advanced degrees, Pure and Applied Chemists usually only take first-year courses and are basically much less specialized than Pure Chemists.
