Study Tips - Helping Students With No Child Left Behind

Study Tips - Helping Students With No Child Left BehindThe No Child Left Behind Act of 2020 mandates that students be evaluated for their progress. For this assessment, SAT tutors need to understand the data they will be gathering and a no child left behind student might not have all the answers.There are different factors that affect the reading and writing abilities of an individual. When SAT tutors try to provide homework help, some of the students might not want to do it. This can be especially true for students who have participated in the education reform movement that focuses on the achievement of the individual.When an individual wants to do well on the SAT, the only way to accomplish this is to get help from a professional tutor that specializes in the process of analyzing the students' progress. The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) defines a good pupil as one who can write a coherent essay. Sometimes, individuals simply cannot do so.If the students do not hav e the time to prepare for an examination, it would be wise to focus on the components of the examination. Just as SAT students should prepare for questions, tutors can also prepare their students for test-taking. The key here is to review the material before giving a personal assessment.While the No Child Left Behind Act requires that students be assessed and this provides a great opportunity for tutors to help students find ways to improve, the act has left many students frustrated. This is because there are some areas where students do not receive feedback that would help them understand where they need to make improvements.When No Child Left Behind was first introduced, the focus was on students in the bottom third of their class and what could be done to help them. This meant that nostudent was getting a full assessment of their progress.Students are now being reevaluated annually, but tutors must be able to work with students who do not receive enough information to enhance the ir performance. Students who are not getting their needs met can always seek assistance from tutors, who know how to use data and information to assist students in achieving their goal of getting into college.

Preparation Tips for the GRE Verbal Section

Preparation Tips for the GRE Verbal Section GRE/MAT Graduate School Blog The verbal section of the GRE consists of three types of questions: reading comprehension, text completion, and sentence equivalence. Since the ability to analyze texts critically is of fundamental importance in research, a good score on the verbal section of the GRE is very reassuring to graduate admission committees. The best preparation you can do (apart from lots of practice tests) for the verbal section of the GRE is read a lot of classic literature. This will expand your vocabulary and expose you to clever or uncommon but grammatically correct linguistic constructions. The important thing is to find literature that you enjoy, so that you read a lot and retain a lot of what you read. Unfortunately, the large variance in the standard of online and print media has led to a widespread acceptance of malapropisms and incorrect usage that flout the conventions of academic writing. A lot of popular fiction is also poorly written from a grammatical standpoint, so your best bet if you want to improve your reading and writing ability is to read the works of acknowledged masters of style. Perhaps you will like John Steinbeck or Mark Twain or Chinua Achebe or George Orwell or Jhumpa Lahiri. The New Yorker magazine is a treasure trove of in-depth and well-written articles that are a smaller investment of time than full novels. However, this approach takes time. If you find in your practice tests that your vocabulary is woefully inadequate and time is short, you have no choice but to try the brute force approach of memorizing the definitions of the words on various GRE vocabulary lists available online or in test preparation manuals. Try to use these words as much as possible in your everyday conversation and writing. About half the questions in the verbal section of the GRE test your ability to comprehend and critically analyze passages of text, which may be drawn from literature, humanities, social sciences, business, arts, or natural sciences, but will not be laced with lots of technical jargon. There will be between one and six questions per passage, so you'll have to read a fair amount of text. Make sure you don't rush through the reading â€" ideally you'll read each passage just once, making short notes and underlining as necessary so that you can answer all the questions from your recollections and notes. However, you can't go too slow since there is a time limit. The only way for you to understand how fast you need to read (while thoroughly comprehending the material) is to do lots of practice tests. Be sure to time yourself on your practice tests, noting how long you spent reading vs. answering questions, and see if you need to read a bit faster. Apart from answering questions on complete passages, you will also be presented with some passages one to five sentences long containing one or more blanks (sentence completion questions). You will have to select the answer containing the ordered list of words that best completes the sentence or paragraph. Once you have made you selection, check to make sure that the passage is logically, stylistically, and grammatically coherent. The remainder of the test will consist of sentence equivalence questions, in which you will be presented with a single sentence containing just one blank. You must choose two of the six answer choices such that if either word is inserted in place of the blank, the resulting sentence is equivalent in meaning. Note that this is not simply an exercise in picking synonyms out of the answer list, since one of the synonyms may not fit the grammatical or logical structure of the sentence. Almost everyone finds the verbal section of the GRE challenging, so plan to dedicate substantial time to preparing for it in the months prior to the test.

He completed his BS in chemical engineering at Berkeley and his MS and PhD at Northwestern University, after which he worked in mathematical research at a trading firm.

Volunteering at Lambeth Academy with Gavin F

Volunteering at Lambeth Academy with Gavin F Since the winter term, Gavin F has been volunteering at Lambeth Academy, helping  three year 9 students with extra  English tuition .  We caught up with Gavin to see how the sessions were going. Interview with the students: What have you found the particularly useful about the sessions with Gavin? Soraya: Probably finding out new words and it’s improving my reading. What do you think about Gavin? Leah: He is very interactive and passionate about English And how do you feel it has helped you outside of class? Becky: Well we are studying Animal Farm later in the term so I think that what we have learnt about censorship of the press will be useful. Interview with Gavin: How do you feel you have supported their learning? G: I think by encouraging them to push themselves to realise that learning is   away of life rather than just an exam. You were also observing lessons earlier this week â€" what was that like? G: It was interesting to see behaviour management because I am going to do a PGCE and that is something university cannot really prepare you for. In terms of teaching style, what did you notice? G: I noticed that you have to keep them interested as a teacher â€" once they are bored they will rebel And what have you taken away from the experience? G: The most important I've taken away is that even as a Teacher you can keep on learning. If you want to get involved in our charity mission - click here to sign up today!!

Short Sightedness - Tutor Hunt Blog

Short Sightedness Further education increases the risk of short sightedness Further education increases the risk of short sightednessUniversitiesA study conducted by the School of Optometry and Vision Sciences at Cardiff University, and recently published in the British Medical Journal, makes an astonishing claim. The longer you spend in education the greater chance you have of developing myopia. Put in simple terms, this means that the more time you spend at school or university, the greater the chances are that you will need to wear glasses. Professor Jez Guggenheim, who was involved in the study, was quite frank about the link between schooling and short sightedness: `Our study provides strong evidence that length of time spent in education is a causal risk factor for myopia.` `Policymakers should be aware that the educational practices used to teach children and to promote personal and economic health may have the unintended consequence of causing increasing levels of myopia and later visual disability as a result.` Since there is a known link between severe myopia and loss of sight, the result of the study allows this astonishing statement to be made: the more time you spend in education, the more likely you are to go blind. The study also predicts the rate of ocular deterioration, and actually says that if a student has 20/20 vision at the age of 16, by the time they graduate from university they might well need glasses to legally drive. Ask people what they think an intelligent person looks like, and they will probably describe a range of physical characteristics. Tall, thin, perhaps wild unruly hair might be amongst the characteristics cited - but most people will say the person wears glasses. The bespectacled boffin is a of course a cliche - one that features prominently in movies. Woody Allen, the intelligent, neurosis ridden character, can hardly be imagined without his thick black spectacles. Dr. Egon Spengler, the smart one out of the four ghostbusters, is another glasses wearer; and of course superman has to do little more than put on his spectacles to become the nerdy, anodyne Clark Kent. The cliche continues into the world of cartoons: Velma from Scooby Doo - is the only character in the show wearing glasses, and the only character, so it seemed to me as a child, possessing a modicum of sense. Professor Frink and Professor Farnsworth, from the Simpsons and Futurama respectively, sport eyeglasses so thick as to be completely opaque. Millhouse, another Simpsons character, and the archetype nerd, wears glasses throughout the show; and Chuckie, the timid brainiac from Rugrats wears spectacles from infancy. It`s certain a hackneyed cliche that glasses wearers are more intelligent than those with perfect vision, but the Cardiff study suggests that myopia can be caused by long hours spent staring at text on screens, and scrutinising textbooks. With the growing prevalence of phones and tablets in people`s lives, surely today our eyesight is under greater strain than ever. It is estimated that by 2050 as much as half the world`s population, around 5 billion people, will be short sighted, compared to 1.4 billion people today; and about 10% of them will suffer from severe myopia, a condition that can lead to blindness. Though many might doubt the link between education and eyesight problems, one only has to look at countries like South Korea, China and Singapore - places that have an intense teaching schedule, including longer school hours, and evening study classes - where about 90% of students leave school at 18 with glasses. At the end of primary school as many as half of children in these countries suffer from myopia, compared to just 10% of British school children. The authors of the study were not too forthcoming in offering solutions to this problem. Other than saying children should be spending more time outdoors, they didn`t offer any practical methods of dealing with their rather dire predictions. Outdoor lessons may sound like a lot of fun - children out in the fresh air, surrounded by nature - but it really would be a logistical nightmare. As an ex teacher myself, I can testify to the necessity of having a class surrounded by four walls. Goodness knows how many children would be wandering off into the undergrowth during a taxing maths or English lesson. The study was certainly an extensive one, involving nearly 68,000 men and women who were registered with the UK Biobank programme. Drawing on a wealth of information, such genetic markers linked to myopia, and the amount of time subjects had been in education, the study concluded that more time spent in education leads to a `rising prevalence of myopia.` I have read through the study, and confess that it is a little too technical for me. I do wonder how anyone can ascertain a `genetic predisposition to higher levels of education,` but I must bow brighter minds than my own. Perhaps the study will have ophthalmologists around the country rubbing their hands in glee, but we certainly should not let it be used as a tool to detract from the importance of education. 20 months ago0Add a Comment

6 Types of Coworkers in Every Office

6 Types of Coworkers in Every Office photo via pexels The suck-up Every office has that person who constantly tries to make themselves look good in front of the boss. Of course, everyone wants to do well at their job and receive recognition, but this coworker is over the top and quite frankly â€" annoying. The most important thing to the suck-up is that the superiors witness his or her achievements. In reality, everyone else in the office probably notices it more. Don’t be this coworker. Instead of kissing up to the manager, let your work ethic do the talking.  Forbes  reports that “good managers know that their best employees are people who take responsibility for their work, step in to solve problems when they spot them, tell the truth about good news and bad news, and support their teammates.” Your boss is more likely to think highly of you for being a standout employee rather than for how buddy-buddy the two of you are. The one that is too blunt While reading this, you probably had at least one person that you work with come to mind. The extremely blunt coworker says whatever is on his or her mind, often with no filter. The blunt coworker may regularly curse, among other things that catch you off guard. This person does not seem to have a care about the possible consequences in regards to professional language in the workplace. The blunt coworker can be hard to deal with every day, particularly if you tend to keep to yourself. The best thing to do is to not let them get a reaction out of you and continue to do your job. The gossiper Some people just can’t function without talking about others, even at their jobs where they have several other more important things to do. Sure, employees talk amongst each other about their personal lives, however, it is the gossipers’ priority. There may be more than one gossiper in your office, which makes things worse. Gossipers talks to you about others and talk to others about you. Nothing that you say or do is safe. Like the other types of coworkers, the gossiper just seems to keep getting away with their behavior without management noticing. photo via unsplash The one from another generation Do you have that coworker who is 2-3 times your age and just can’t seem to grasp the fact that you, someone in your late teens or early 20s, are working the same job as them? These people still look at our generation as children and they don’t believe that we can get the job done. This type of coworker treats you less than they treat everyone else or they may not even want to interact with you much at all. It is even worse if you quickly enter a position above them in your career. If the  generational differences  cause issues, it will create a negative work environment for you and for everyone. When will people accept diversity in the office and realize that times are changing? The weird one Most offices have that unusually introverted employee that most people struggle to try to communicate with. Maybe it’s that stereotypical IT guy that understands computers better than people, or maybe it is someone who is new to the job and nervous about meeting others. Nevertheless, the unusual coworker likely causes few issues unlike the rest of them. Although you may not have an interest in trying to befriend this person, going out of your way to be kind to them can have a positive impact on the office environment. The office comedian The office comedian can be a good thing and a bad thing, but every office has one. The office comedian’s goal is to have everyone think he or she is the funniest person ever. They are constantly cracking jokes, which can take some stress off your workday if you share the same type of humor. Laughing can even bring people closer and strengthen how they work together. According to BBC, “laughing together is something that improves team collaboration and stimulates innovation.” photo via unsplash Constantly goofing around with the office comedian can make you get behind on work if you allow it to. If you don’t find the office comedian funny, however, then you are likely going to be just as annoyed as you are with the other people in the office. If you are trying to fulfill any of the coworker types, the comedian is the best way to go. Compared to the other options, you would likely be less hated by your coworkers. Besides, everyone needs little ways to take their minds off the stress of the job. Whether you are starting your full-time career or working a part-time job, your workplace will have its stereotypical coworkers that get on your nerves. Sadly, in the working world, you can’t do much about it. At times, you will be forced to work with people you wouldn’t particularly choose to work with. The best thing you can do to have a positive work environment is to be yourself and think about how you interact with others in the office. Try not to fall into the category of a typical lousy coworker.

Studying Three Years Above Her Grade Level, This Student Helps Her Peers

Studying Three Years Above Her Grade Level, This Student Helps Her Peers Studying Three Years Above Her Grade Level, This Student Helps Her Peers Josie, 10-years-old, Math Level H, Reading Level G Josie is 10-years-old, studying three years above her grade level in the Kumon Program. In fact, she’s studying the same math material that her mom, who is an eighth grade teacher, teaches her students. Imagine that, a 10-year-old transforming equations, working with linear functions and simplifying monomials and polynomials. She’s well on her way to advanced algebraic expressions and she isn’t even in middle school yet. “Sometimes, when the math gets hard, I remind myself to stay focused and positive,” says Josie. “My mom shows her eighth grade students that I’m doing the same math as them, which is a good reminder for me that Kumon has brought me so far.” Josie shakes hands with Kumon North America president Minoru Tanabe. One of the things that Josie likes most about Kumon is the fact that she’s studying above her grade level. She says that many of her friends look to her for help with their homework. “Kumon has helped me in so many ways,” says Josie. “It has given me confidence in myself and that confidence also helps me help other students in my class, which I love to do.” Josie gives us a little insight into how Kumon has impacted her early childhood. How has Kumon helped you beyond academics? Kumon gives me confidence because I know how strong of a student it has made me. I know that I can do and learn anything if I do the work and practice daily. Kumon has taught me about the importance of focusing and to not be afraid of challenges, but to enjoy them and work through them because I know I can overcome anything. What keeps you motivated in Kumon? The thing that keeps me motivated is the fact that I am working hard to get ahead in school and to be the best that I can be academically.

Do You Have Too Much Debt for a College Student

Do You Have Too Much Debt for a College Student via Pexels.com 1. How many credit cards do you have? We all know what it means to build credit pay your bills on time, utilize a certain percentage of your credit allowance, make consistent payments (that are more than the minimum), and restrain from opening more than one credit card before youve established a career with a monthly income. If youre a college student and you have more than one credit card think again. Its not the right time in life to have that many lines of credit before you have a steady, monthly income. Its hard to restrain from opening multiple credit cards. As soon as you step foot on a college campus as a freshman, companies are coming after you to open up a credit card with them preying on the fact that youre young, inexperienced, and impulsive. If you fall for their tactics, youll soon owe thousands of dollars in credit card debt on top of the thousands you probably already have in student loans. 2. Are you paying your bills on time? If youve gotten yourself in a situation where you cant pay your bills when theyre due, and youre waiting until your next paycheck comes in, its likely that youve gotten yourself in a situation where youre too far in debt. Not only do you need to make sure you can pay your bills, but you should make sure you can pay them  on time.  If you cant, youre too far in debt. 3. What amount of student loans is  too much?   If youve taken out student loans (which its pretty likely that you have), you might be feeling nervous about how youre going to pay them back. So what amount of student loans is more than necessary? According to US News, it all depends on your anticipated salary once youve finished school. If youre going into a field where youre only going to make about $40K per year, its probably not smart to take out $100K in student loans. Its all relative, my friend. via Pexels.com 4. Whats your car payment/housing situation? If you decided to go out and buy a new car, making payments on it with your student loan refund for the semester, youre probably not making good financial decisions. The best thing you can do for yourself while youre in college is  save as much money as you can.  This includes the decision you make about where and how youre going to live. Sure, we all want a one-bedroom apartment downtown, but is that really necessary? Its financially smarter to rent an apartment with multiple roommates in order to keep your monthly payments down. Yes, roommates are annoying but at least youre saving half of what you would be spending on a one-bedroom by agreeing to set some strong boundaries and live your best life with multiple roomies. 5. What habits are you setting now, as a young adult, that will follow you through the rest of your life? If youre allowing yourself to buy things impulsively, stack up the amount of money you owe in credit card debt, and overwhelm your bank account with bills, you arent setting yourself up for success in the long run. In fact, if you think about the absolute necessities that you need now, while youre in school, its a) crappy food, b) a bit of fun money, and c) a lot of time to dedicate to your studies. Its unnecessary for you to impulsively buy things you want when youre in school. Youre likely not making very much money (if any at all). So while youre in school and roughing it is the norm, go without the things that you think you need and settle on having just the necessities. Refrain from opening up credit cards with every company that approaches you during your first week on campus. Only set up automatic withdrawal for the bills you  know  you can afford, and stay away from shopping sprees until you have a steady income. While youre at it, check out some benchmarks you should plan on meeting if youre going to be able to retire comfortably. The earlier you start, the more likely you are to be comfortable in retirement. Instead of spending every last penny you have  now, wait and reward yourself as a 65-year-old with a huge stack of dollars in your bank account. Instead of being impulsive about things you want now, while youre in college focus on the future.

Reasons For Having A Tutoring Intake

Reasons For Having A Tutoring IntakeTutoring Intake is a need for some students and educators who are in search of outsource services that can help improve the quality of their teaching and learn from outside the classroom. Tutoring is not just a matter of teaching to the material. That is not what tutoring is. Tutoring can also involve modifying the teachers' lesson plans, acting as a role model, organizing group projects, improving classroom dynamics, evaluating student progress, offering remedial help, or playing an educational advisor role.Students and teachers can use tutoring in a variety of ways. It can come as a way to gain skills or knowledge outside the classroom, or it can be a way to develop skills or knowledge for the teacher or for the student. In either case, the advantages of tutoring are numerous. Since the idea of teaching is also about developing and strengthening social and personal skills, knowing that a group of students who are interested in what they are doing are learning in their spare time is also very valuable.Tutoring is more than just participating in a lesson or helping a classmate with something, it is a way to learn and grow. The students have more time in which to study on their own. After the lessons, the teacher has a lot of time to concentrate on his job, to carry out his studies or to participate in a social activity. This results in more quality time for both the teacher and the students.The skills of the teacher will be stimulated by the fact that the student's strengths and weaknesses are being studied. With time, the student will gain a wider range of areas of interest and in turn, these will expand the areas of knowledge for the teacher and vice versa. The student can be taught by going to classes and listening to lectures, but the focus in one classroom may not be useful for another.Students are learning to think and to find their own answers to problems. That is something that does not come naturally to some students . Teaching will not be the same the next day, but the knowledge and skills the student will learn and gain are enduring and valuable. When they move on to the next subject, their ability to learn will be strong.Tutoring is a way to have a student observe something that the teacher is lecturing about. The student can act as a role model and can set an example to the other students. This will build on the quality of learning that the teacher is doing in the classroom and build confidence for both the teacher and the student.Tutoring is a way to develop students' ability to think for themselves and to create new ways of learning that will be useful to them and to others. It is also a way to enjoy being an active participant in the learning process. The overall quality of a teacher's job will improve, as will the overall effectiveness of a classroom.
