Cheap Orgniaic Chemistry Tutor
Cheap Orgniaic Chemistry TutorSo you want to hire a cheap orgniaic chemistry tutor, well let me tell you some things to consider. When I was looking for an English teacher, I wanted someone who had experience in teaching chemistry to school aged children and who would be willing to teach a part time basis.As you might imagine, I did not look too hard and found a fantastic English teacher who gave two weeks a month for half the price. She did have experience in teaching chemistry and was a teacher herself, so her training and experience meant she was able to teach young people in the class. I ended up giving her my kid's homework as a form of payment, but we never really set up a contract so I don't know if it works like that with teachers who take on a short term contract or with short term tutors who work at night.For your own sake I would recommend that you get an experienced chemistry tutor that will be willing to teach part time so you can see how it works before committing to an ything long term. You may not realise the impact that a bad lesson can have on a young mind.If you hire a good tutor then you should end up getting a really good piece of teaching material to use, in the form of a copy of your child's textbook. If you follow the reading and writing exercises they will develop their speaking, reading and writing skills.Don't rely on your tutor to write a report after every lesson. These reports are usually written by the tutor themselves and written for the teaching materials, so you'll end up spending a lot of money on something that you're not going to use.An alternative to hiring a chemistry tutor is to use a home study course, which also gives you a quality piece of teaching material to use. There are a few things to consider when choosing a chemistry tutor and Iwould strongly recommend that you ask friends and family if they can give you some recommendations.There are a lot of books and products out there that make you believe you're doing your homework and yet you're not getting the results you need to pass. Choose a good tutor and stick with them because they're highly experienced and qualified teachers and this means that they are a good option for you.

Angel, age 10 Alison Mori, Kumon Instructor
Angel, age 10 Alison Mori, Kumon Instructor Angel, age 10: Alison Mori, Kumon Instructor When Angel, now 10 years old, was in the second grade, his parents were presented with disheartening news from his school. He faced demotion for not meeting state curriculum standards. A special needs child, Angel was under an Individualized Education Program (IEP) at his school. His parents challenged the potential demotion and were able to get additional support from his school, preventing the decision. To ensure Angel was being provided with a learning environment paced to his individual abilities, his parents also enrolled him in the Kumon Reading Program just before he began the third grade. According to his mom, â[Kumon] has given him the academic guidance to independently flourish into his own and to be his best.â As Angel entered the fifth grade, he achieved Kumonâs advanced reading comprehension award, reading two years above his grade level. Not only that, for the time ever, Angel is proficient in all his subjects at school. Three years into the Kumon Program, Angel has evolved from a quiet and shy boy to a confident Kumon Honor Roll student. At school, he joined the chess club and ballroom dancing program. He has also earned Certificates of Achievement in the NYC Recreational Parks Swimming Program where he achieved two levels of swimming instruction. Alison Mori, his Kumon Instructor, looks back to the day when Angel first stepped foot into her learning center. Little did she know that the once shy, eight year old who struggled with sounding out words is now studying critical reading and analysis at age 10. âHeâs more comfortable with reading aloud and his confidence has improved immensely. I am truly proud of his progress, he is a superstar,â says Alison. He is currently studying level H of the Kumon Reading Program, which enhances comprehension and summarization skills. When a support system is consistent and strong, special needs transforms into an inspiring display of strength and accomplishment. âWe all have to work together in order to achieve success,â says Alison.

Creative writing, talent or skill
Creative writing, talent or skill Writing of any sort is not easy but perhaps creative writing is the hardest of all. Creative writing falls into the fiction/non-fiction or poetry categories, but essentially it's purpose is to express thoughts, feelings and emotions, rather than to simply convey information. Perhaps you have noticed that your child has a vivid imagination and loves reading books and inventing his/her own stories? Perhaps you are an adult and have always wanted to learn how to transfer your thoughts and emotions to paper but don't know where to start? Although there are many websites about creative writing, dedicated to both adults and children; a private tutor can provide invaluable help to boost the imagination and master the techniques of creative writing. There has been much a debate on whether creative writing is an inert talent or learned skill. Most experts would agree that it's a bit of both - skill and talent can work together. If English was always your best subject at school and you also enjoyed the lessons, this could be an indication of what you wish to study for a future career. Creative writing is a skill and that's why we have this category in our Arts Crafts website together with many other skills: drama, painting, photography to list a few. Just like other artists, musicians and other creative people, they all follow a similar path - a passion hones through years of learning and practice. True dedication will result in truly wonderful writings.

ACS Exam in General Chemistry - Essential Information to Know
ACS Exam in General Chemistry - Essential Information to KnowThere are a number of topics that you may encounter when taking an ACS exam in general chemistry. These include as well as chemical solutions, solvents, and solid state energy. Of course these are the most basic steps that you will encounter on your exam, however there are also other important aspects that you will need to be aware of.Exam papers vary in several different areas. Some topics will contain information on organic solvents, for example. This is because they are used commonly in your chemistry laboratories.Solvents are used to allow different molecules to mix. Some examples of solvents are liquid carbon dioxide, water, and alcohols. Because of this fact you should be aware of how a solute is combined in chemistry.Compounds that are obtained by various reactions are known as end products. For example alcohols are produced from acids, as are benzene compounds. Different kinds of compounds will require different sol vents to be used.It is important to remember that solvents have very different effects on different compounds. They can melt them or combine them together. When choosing a solvent to use it is important to understand the properties of the solution that it is being used with. In general they are classified as clear, liquid, and oily solvents.As previously mentioned, some problems can arise with solvents. You will need to know about what they do and how they are useful. Other types of compounds that can be mixed with solvents fuels and paint thinner.On your ACS exam in general chemistry you will encounter a number of other things that you need to be aware of. You will also have to make sure that you have your chemical mixtures under control. Some of these things include washing out the solutions, mixing the chemicals, and whether you can isolate or not.
A Day in the Life of a Medical Student
A Day in the Life of a Medical Student The following piece was written by Anubodh Sunny Varshney. Sunny is a Dallas Fort Worth tutor for Varsity Tutors and a current medical student at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. He has accepted a residency in internal medicine atBrigham and Womens Hospital. Medical school is a transformative and unique experience. Students begin with very little clinical knowledge and a vast body of material to master. By the end of their fourth year, however, they are confident in their clinical abilities and prepared to tackle the challenges of an internship. Below is a day in the life of a medical student during the pre-clinical (traditionally years one and two) and clinical years (three and four). Note, however, that each medical schools schedule is unique. The Pre-Clinical Years 8:00-9:00 a.m.: Wake up at the last possible moment, frantically shower, dress, and eat a poor approximation of breakfast before you drive to school (despite understanding the metabolic basis of why breakfast really is important). 9:00-9:50 a.m.: Attend your first lecture of the day. If you are a first-year medical student, lectures likely cover basic biomedical topics like anatomy, biochemistry, cell biology, physiology, and neuroscience. If you are a second-year medical student, lectures typically describe diseases according to organ systems (e.g. pulmonary, gastrointestinal, or cardiovascular). 9:50-10:00 a.m.: Realize your breakfast was insufficient. Scramble to the campus cafeteria to purchase a snack, along with almost every medical students true best frienda cup of coffee. 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.: Listen to two lectures back-to-back. Absorb as many details as possible about disease epidemiology, symptoms, physical exam findings, laboratory results, imaging, and treatment modalities. 12:00-1:00 p.m.: Ah, lunchtime. If this is a particularly intense week (i.e. final exams), you may consider heading to the library to review your notes. Otherwise, you spend an hour eating with friends. 1:00-4:00 p.m.: The remainder of your day is variable, depending upon your schools specific curriculum. You may dissect cadavers in the anatomy laboratory, work through patient presentations in small groups, examine slides for cell biology and/or microbiology, log early clinical exposure seeing patients with a mentor, or attend additional lectures. The Clinical Years Your schedule (and life) during years three and four can vary dramatically depending on your clinical clerkship (family or internal medicine, neurology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, surgery, etc.). The outline below is reflective of a non-surgical inpatient rotation (like internal medicine). 6:00-7:00 a.m.: Wake up at the last possible moment, frantically shower, dress (including your white coat!), and eat a poor approximation of breakfast before you drive to the hospital. 7:00-8:00 a.m.: As a clinical student (or clerk), you have responsibilities and expectations at the hospital. Before your supervising resident arrives, you complete your initial rounds. You visit with your patientsusually from one to five individuals. You ask them how they are feeling, examine them, update them on their status, review their chart and lab work, and enter your note into their medical record, along with your assessment and proposed plan. As a student, you have fewer patients to follow than the residents have, so you devote extra time and care to each patient. Patients sometimes even view you as their doctor on the team. 8:00-9:00 a.m.: Now that your supervising resident is present, you see your patients once again. This time, your resident does the majority of the examining, either confirming or denying your earlier findings. You discuss your assessment and plan with your resident, and you change your note, if need be. 9:00-11:00 a.m.: The attending (who is a faculty member) arrives, and you begin rounds as a team. The team (attending, resident, medical students, and sometimes nurses and/or pharmacists) sees all of the patients they are caring for one-by-one. As the team reaches your patients rooms, you present your findings, impressions, and proposed treatment strategies to the attending physician. This is where the majority of teaching occurs. The attending questions you regarding your patients illnessin front of the entire teamand expects you to give your best answer. Several questions will be well beyond your current knowledge level, but the attending will be sure to educate you on these topics. As a clinical student, you may realize that you learn far better when correlating information to a patient you are caring for, rather than passively taking knowledge in as you did in your pre-clinical years. 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.: You finish writing and/or editing your notes, and you assist your resident with any miscellaneous tasks that must be done in order to help your patients improve. 12:00-1:00 p.m.: Lunch! Occasionally, there will be departmental educational conferences during this hour that include free food. This is also an excellent opportunity to refresh your coffee mug. 1:00-5:00 (or 6:00, or 7:00, etc.) p.m.: Depending on your rotation and whether or not your team is on call, you will be dismissed early or late in the day. If your team is not on call, you will work with your resident to follow up on patients who need to remain in the hospital. You will also help to discharge patients who are ready to leave. If your team is on call, you will continue to monitor patients, as well as participate in consultations and new admissions. The transformation students experience during medical school is nothing short of amazing. We often start our journey nave and optimistic. The massive amount of information we must commit to memory occasionally overwhelms us. Many times, medical students struggle with frustration and intimidation as they go through the seemingly never-ending pre-clinical years. Students may think about their peers who graduated college and started lucrative careers. However, once we reach the clinical years, we are often rejuvenated; we finally learn what it is like to be a physician. We begin to make clinical decisionsfirst timidly, then assertively. Yes, a day in the life of a medical student can be rough. We are burdened with debt, and we are at the bottom of the proverbial totem pole but we begin to realize why we chose medicine in the first place. It is not about getting rich quickly, it is not about prestige, and it is not about feeling like you are on top of the world. There is one thing, and one thing only, that drives us: to make a positive difference in the lives of our patients. Check out Sunny's tutoring profile.

Choose the Right Location for Your Yoga Sessions5. Wear Clothing Adapted to Yoga Poses6. How To Set Up Your Yoga Lessons7. Practice Yoga Daily and Continue Your Teacher TrainingAs a beginner yoga teacher, you are eager to give your utmost for those who come to you for help.Whether you want to freelance or teach at a yoga centre, you may find yourself apprehensive when first confronted with a group of students, wondering if you have what it takes to teach yoga - especially if this is your first yoga class as an instructor!Relax, youâll see, it isnât as difficult as it looksâ¦Preparing your session beforehand and keeping a positive attitude will help entice your newfound yogis and yoginis to keep coming back.Here are some tips on how to master your first yoga class with equanimity.in tune with yourself, face your own inner demons and improve your mental tranquility before starting your yoga lesson.For example, if you decided to learn yoga because of an overly stressful job, you will already have all the tools at your disposal to unlock the potential of those interested in yoga for the same reasons.2. Teach Your Favourite Yoga StyleA teacher who is passionate about what he is teaching will find it easier to transfer his knowledge to his students. This is true for any subject.Remember school?You probably came across both extremes:a teacher who is tired of teaching and who drones on in class on autopilot, without putting any energy into it. Awfully boringâ¦an energetic teacher full of goodwill, who goes the extra distance for his students.When you first started to practice yoga, you may have noticed that your yoga teachers all had different teaching styles. Which ones resonated the most with you?The ones where your yoga instructor radiated positive energy and motivated you to give your all, o f course. Now itâs your turn to pass these good vibes on to your yoga students!Learn how to find yoga students here.And because itâs always easiest to teach something you know intimately, think about which of the yoga styles is your favourite.In Europe, some of the most popular types of yoga are:Hatha YogaBikram YogaAshtanga YogaVinyasa YogaKundalini YogaThese are the ones you are most likely to come across in yoga studios and institutes.But even if you mostly teach in a school, there is no reason you couldnât also teach private yoga classes in other yoga styles.Why not become a private yoga tutor in Nidra Yoga, Iyengar Yoga, Raja Yoga, Prenatal Yoga, Childrenâs Yoga, Hot Yoga or Power Yoga?You can easily combine the two: even as an employee at a yoga academy, you can still freelance on the side and give private lessons or even online tutoring jobs.3. The Right Equipment for Your Yoga ClassWhether you are outfitting yourself or want to provide provide props for students in a group yoga class, make sure you have the necessary equipment for home yoga and your yoga classes.Most forms of yoga require only the minimum. But if you practice Iyengar Yoga, yoga props are obligatory (in fact, it is the main characteristic of this yoga style.)Here is a list of indispensable yoga equipment:A sports bag to transport your materialA yoga mat comfortable enough to allow you to hold your poses for the requisite length of timeA towelA cushion (zafu) for meditationA yoga blockA yoga strapSpecial yoga chairs (with a headrest)Yoga props such as yoga blocks are an intrinstic part of Iyengar Yoga, but are useful for beginner yoga students, too. Photo credit: Melissa Venable via Visual HuntAsk your students to buy the same make that you use to achieve similar results. A zafu is a comfortable cushion to sit on when meditating.If I'm teaching beginner group yoga classes near me, students will generally expect basic equipment to be provided. You might also want to have one or tw o extra for private students to try out before they buy it themselves.

Choose the Right Location for Your Yoga SessionsThe ultimate goal of yoga practice is to achieve a unity of body and mind (the infamous âbenefits of yogaâ) while cultivating mindfulness of the world around you - making it vital to choose the right ambiance for yoga lessons especially important.You would never think of doing yoga during rush hour at a busy intersection. The pollution from the noise and the exhaust fumes would prevent you from achieving the proper state of mind.Yoga lessons in the middle of a busy street migh t seem hip and trending, but doesn't cultivate the mindfulness necessary for serious yoga practice. Photo credit: Seattle Department of Transportation via VisualHunt.comSo whether you are thinking of giving yoga classes at a yoga institute or as private classes, try and find the right location.If you have the chance, set up your yoga courses at a nearby beach.If you are using a rented studio, visit the rooms around the time you plan to teach your lessons. If you find yourself next door to a beginner recorder class, you might want to reconsider.Try to find a quiet place with good acoustics if you want to put on some music during meditation sessions. If you are giving private yoga lessons, you can either:Give the lessons at your homeGo to your studentâs homeGo outsideIf you decide on the first option, try and create a space dedicated exclusively to practising yoga. Otherwise, you might have to find another location.For winter, a yoga studio closed for the season or one with room ren tal option and a calm park in the summer are good alternatives for spiritual tête-à -têtes.5. Wear Clothing Adapted to Yoga PosesWhen you go jogging, you are not going to put on jeans or flapping skirts. Itâs the same for yoga. Even though it is hardly a fashion show, the proper attire is important when practising yoga.Wearing the wrong clothes (too loose or too tight) will hinder you in your balance, flexibility and, most importantly, your breathing. It will also make it more difficult to flow from one pose (asana) to another.Here are some examples of form-fitting but not constricting clothes that will help you soar to new heights.For women, we recommend: A high-cut tank top you feel comfortable with. Avoid clothes that are too tight as they will compress your ribcage, or t-shirts with wide sleeves.For your legs, sports leggings are the best. They should be thick enough not to be transparent. That way, you will feel comfortable when flowing from one pose to another. Shorts are another alternative. Avoid clothing that compresses the stomach or rides down when you are upside-down.Some like to wear bathing suits when practicing yoga outside.In terms of underwear, a sports bra that supports well while still letting you breathe properly is essential. Prefer comfortable materials and skin tones so they are not visible through your clothes.If necessary, you can add accessories such as a sweat band or an elastic to hold your hair back, a pair of gloves or non-slip slippers, as well as flat shoes or sandals if you are using a sports hall.A tip: since you will often have to bend down to your students, avoid plunging necklines or t-shirts that are too loose.For men:For a top, a comfortable t-shirt, not too loose or too tight, is perfect. Those well in tune with their bodies can go topless.For your legs, cyclistsâ shorts or judo trousers are good choices.The accessories are the same as for women.Donât forget to take off your jewellery (bracelets, earrings, neckl aces, watches) before a yoga session.Ask your new students to wear form-fitting clothes that will help you evaluate their posture, so you can correct them more easily if necessary.Men who are comfortable with their body can practice yoga topless. Photo credit: ??a? ThFt (slowly back...) via Visual Hunt6. How To Set Up Your Yoga LessonsThough each type of yoga has its own routines, a yoga session is always set up in roughly the same way. Only the poses and their sequences are different.Yoga classes always start with a short period allowing you to put the mundane life behind you. Invite your students to relax long enough to achieve calmness of mind and body. Breathing exercises can help.Afterwards, you can set up a warm-up and stretching session to prepare the body for what is to come.Now comes the flow of yoga poses. The rhythm of the sequences and the time they are held will change depending on the type of yoga. Insist on proper breathing, making sure they inhale and exhale in synch with every movement.After this phase - more or less lively - you will want to leave your students some time for meditation. This will help them reach the state of mindfulness they are striving for and actively process the benefits of yoga.Don't forget to give your yoga students some time to break free of their daily lives at the start of yoga lessons. Photo credit: Kamila Gornia via Visualhunt.comAfter the end of each yoga session, donât hesitate to ask your students what they felt so that you can improve your future lessons. Be certain to fix a price per session that is affordable but will still allow you to make ends meet.7. Practice Yoga Daily and Continue Your Teacher TrainingGood teachers never stop learning. Especially in yoga, which is constantly evolving.Therefore, as soon as you can, sign up for further yoga teacher training classes with one of the reputed yoga institutes (such as the British Wheel of Yoga or the Himalaya Yoga Institute, or why not got to India itself?) It might give you ideas on how to improve your own yoga classes.And donât forget that a good yogi practices yoga every day to keep their body and mind flexible and offer the best of themselves to their students.Here is some good advice to give your own students: it is better to train for 15 minutes several times a week than two hours every so often.Now that your yoga class is ready to go, find out if yoga studios near you are in need of teachers. You can also use our site to become a yoga Superprof.But if I want to learn yoga how do I pick the right yoga classes near me?
