Take the Wheel 17 Hacks for Designing the Best Online Lessons with Your Language Tutors

Take the Wheel 17 Hacks for Designing the Best Online Lessons with Your Language Tutors 17 Hacks for Designing the Best  Online Lessons  with Your Language Tutors Looking to optimize your time spent in  online language lessons?Ive long been  collecting advice, wisdom and hacks from polyglot podcasts and blogs, from books on the science of language learning  and through my own many years of experience as both a language student and teacherâ€"in the classroom and online.In this post, Ill whittle all that down to  the best of the best.The basic premise is that you get the most out of your one-on-one online sessions when you, the student, take the wheel and design the classes yourself.Youve likely never planned your own lessons before, which is why Ive put together this post of 17 hacks.And just in case anyones still on the fence about online tutoring,  heres  an ultra-quick rundown of the main benefits:Theyre usually one-on-one, so you dont waste time listening to others mangle the language.You also wont be wasting (relatively significant!) time getting to and from class, or paying a teacher to come to you.Online classes are  a relatively cheap w ay to have a native-speaking tutor from anywhere in the world.They  can be individualized to match your goals and learning style.So with so much to  gain, lets get started! 17 Hacks for Designing the Best  Online Lessons  with Your Language TutorsResource Hacks1. Use Verbling, italki or WyzAnt for finding teachersVerbling is  a site that specializes in online language tutoring. You can search based on price, availability and, of course, language. Plus, this site has its own video technology! This means you don’t need Skype or another third-party program, so if you find a tutor on Verbling, you can skip the next step below.italki  is currently one of the most popular options for finding language tutors, and offers a wide variety of tutors for various languages. You can select a language, browse tutors for that language and schedule an online lesson, all right on the site.WyzAnt  helps people find online or in-person tutors for a variety of subjects. Its a great option for finding an online language tutor if you want to get really specific about what youre looking for in terms of payment or schedule, or if youre looking for someone who can fit into a certain timeslot ASAP.2. Connect with the  best tech for video callingSkype is the most  common choice for language classes, so your choice of video calling may be settled by the fact that its what your tutor already has. In my experience, Skype tends to deliver more acceptable  sound quality on slower Internet connections compared to  Google Hangouts, whose image quality is a bit better. Good sound is obviously more important for a language class.Google Hangouts does have  Google Docs (see below) integrated, but theres nothing to keep you from using Google Docs separately at the same time youre on Skype.3. Use Google Docs for correcting texts together in real timeIve compared Google Docs to Microsofts offering, Word Online, and while the latter  may come out on top in terms of some word processing features, Goo gle Docs tends to be better for editing your attempts at written language  together in real time during an online class. Word Online has more frequent lag when saving; Google Docs just works, allowing  you to more instantly see the changes that your teacher is making as you edit a document together.Google Docs also has a chat feature next to the document, so you can use that as scratch space for looking at grammar issues without writing in the document itself.4. Have access to quick translationsThe quickest way to get a decent answer for a puzzling word or phrase in many languages is either Google Translate or WordReference; I keep them both open during classes.A better way to look up words however is with Google or Bings image search feature. If youre having trouble understanding something that your teacher says, and its a concept that could be understood quickly visually, encourage your teacher to share a link to pictures of what theyre  talking about, rather than a translation.Fo r example, my Serbian teacher recently sent me this link to explain the kajle, or blinged-out necklaces worn by certain classless hooligans in her country. A picture is worth5. Use online whiteboardsIf you like to doodle, draw or diagram concepts and  conjugations, a whiteboard can be convenient. There are several sites that allow you to simply pop in and start drawing, and you can get a link to share what you are doing with your teacher and allow them  to contribute too. A Web Whiteboard is one good one.Choosing Your Tutors6. Use more than one tutorTheres no reason you should have just one tutorâ€"youre not planning on speaking your target language with just one person, who has  just one speaking style  and viewpoint on life, are you? Language learning is hardly a monogamous commitment, and no tutor  should expect as much.Im usually working with two or three tutors at any one time on a target language. Aside from giving me  various perspectives and speaking styles, it helps me  cro ss-check things. Even the best teachers get some of their explanations a bit wrong sometimes.Changing things up also keeps the lessons more interesting for me, and even for the tutors. I can repeat the same basic lesson plan with several different tutors if Im having trouble with a subject, without the risk of boring any one of them to death.7. Work with native speakersOf course you should  work with native speakers! You want to be able to speak with them someday, right? One of the principle advantages of online tutoring is that you can work with someone from anywhere in the world for a reasonable price.Also, consider the  target version (dialect/accent) of your language. Dont, for example, learn Senegalese French if youre planning  a move to Montreal! If possible, get someone who was born in and still lives in your target region. Even grammar rules can vary  widely in most languages; the most educated Spaniard  from the south is still going to occasionally use different conjugation s  than someone from the north.Id also recommend only focusing on one dialect  and trying to get only teachers from that region, so that you dont have contradictory inputs about grammar and vocabulary, which can be frustrating. If youre a glutton for punishment, wait to take on other versions of the language until  youre firmly comfortable with one of them.I can think of one counter-example in which youd learn  a language that you intend to actually  speak only with non-native speakers: Business English in many parts of the world functions this way. But even students learning English for purely business purposes in Siberia, for example, tend to prefer to learn with native speakersâ€"from anywhereâ€"for aesthetic reasons. Wed all like to sound like natives, in the end.8. Consider if  you want to learn the academic dialectA related consideration is whether you want to learn the academic (correct) dialect  of the languageâ€"as David Foster Wallace reminds us, it  is  just a dialectâ€"o r the street-y, conversational version youll actually use when speaking.Im not planning on ever writing scientific papers in Italian or business proposals in Serbian, so personally, Im always going to choose the latter in my language adventures. My guess is that many  readers of this blog have similar goals, but most of our tutors are at cross purposes;  they feel  some innate, mysterious responsibility to foist  the academic version of their language on us. It can take some convincing to get them to focus on conversational grammar and vocabulary. If you land with a teacher who absolutely doesnt want to teach you the language as its used in everyday conversation, get another.On a related note, when  I was learning Russian I found it  hard  to get female Russian tutors  to utter or explain even the mildest swear words. So, where there are strong gender and socio-economic divides in how the language is used, you may have to take this  into consideration in choosing a teacher. In the e xample of Russian, if  you need to learn to understand and use swear words (which are a  huge feature of that spoken language), you may need a male teacher.9. Ensure your teacher has a solid Internet connectionIf you frequently have problems connecting, dont hesitate to change tutors.10. Find a tutor who is a pleasure  to talk toHaving a rapport with your tutor is important and underrated. A  funny teacher is always better than a boring teacher with tons of degrees! The lessons will be more memorable if theyre amusing, and if youre motivated to speak with  a great person, youll stick with it for longer.Other qualities that factor in:  Does your tutor speak slowly and clearly? Is your tutor  patient, or does he/she get frustrated?  A big warning sign is a teacher who  insists on explaining things in English rather than the target language. Its better to have a teacher who knows how to use pictures and  words that are simple enough for any level. The best teachers can explain most thi ngs entirely  in the target language for any studentâ€"and know better than to try to explain those few things that are too complicated for the student at that point.11. Look for someone who fits your  learning styleAs the great overview of language learning studies  How Languages Are Learned  points out, students tend to do best when theyre learning from a teacher whose style matches the one that they  believe  is best.This is also a safe excuse to ignore all Internet advice (including mine, dang  it!) on language learning; youre going to be motivated and have better learning and retention when youre learning in a way that seems correct based on your habits and previous educational experiences.12. Sometimes inexperienced tutors can be betterA little tip that I picked up from language-learning addict Judith Meyers interview on episode 12 of  David Mansarays fabulous podcast is that you may sometimes want to have an inexperienced, untrained tutor. Highly trained and seasoned  teacher s are more likely to have firm and antiquated ideas about language learning, and are less likely to be willing to let you plan your own lessons (see the last  section).Even worse are the inexperienced and  highly trained teachers. And many countries produce a surfeit of academics who have studied the intricacies of the grammar of the academic dialect (usually as more commonly used  in a politically powerful region some 50-100 years back), but have not studied how to explain  the language to foreigners, which is quite a different subject.Inexperienced teachers generally charge less and are more flexible about working with you towards  your  goals.Experienced teachers can, however, be lifesavers when you need a grammar point explained and your textbook or Internet references arent making any sense. Experienced (often older) teachers have taught  grammar points to foreigners many times, have honed their explanations and examples, and know the exceptions to watch out for.Meyer suggests that inexperienced tutors are better for experienced language learners, and experienced tutors are better for inexperienced learners. Personally, I tend to work with several inexperienced tutors, but have at least one experienced tutor that I can check in with once a month or so for the more vexing grammar issues.Lesson Planning13. Yes, you should plan your own lessonsIts nice and easy to just show up for your lesson and go through something that your tutor has planned.But if youre an active, self-directed learner youre going to get a  lot more out of your tutoring sessions.Lessons that you plan yourself are going to be perfectly suited to your own grammar issues, interests and language level. In my classes, Ive recently been learning to talk about home repair and modernist  cooking, because these are big interests for me  right now. Doing so  makes the lessons more enjoyable for me, but it also ensures that Im learning vocabulary and constructions that Ill be more likely to use whe n Im having conversations in my target language. On the other hand, Ive never in my life had a competent conversation about sports, even in English, so a class that focused on that subject would probably not be so useful for me in real life.14. Prepare by finding material before your lessonsHopefully you already have a good textbookâ€"I happen to like the Teach Yourself  language books, which are targeted for self-directed learners and available for lots of languages.You can plan your lesson based on a lesson in your book, but you can also use  pop songs, real-world videos from  FluentU, short stories, news articles and any other material from the target language. Ive even planned lessons around my Facebook chats with friends who are native speakers, wherein I try to learn the new slang and expressions, and practice using them myself with my tutor in new contexts.15. Nail your self-planned grammar lessonsId suggest that you dont waste time talking  about grammar during your lesson, at least as much as possible. You can learn about the rules from  your book, which hopefully has excellent explanations. The goal of the lesson should be to practice and apply them. (You certainly should, however, prepare to ask your teacher about any issues that you dont understandâ€"and you may want to email trickier questions to your tutor  ahead of time so that he/she  has a chance to prepare for them.)To prepare most grammar lessons, what you want to do is think up  situations that trigger the specific grammar point in question. One sticking  point for learners of Slavic languages, for example, is verb aspect. But for purposes of not traveling quite so far, lets look at how wed study aspect  if we were learning  African-American English, whose  aspect system is distinct from Standard English.A very polished teacher of the African-American dialect for non-natives (good luck finding that!) might be able to give you an explanation, but you could  find that anyway in your grammar t exts.For your lesson, youre better off  trying out  the aspects youve learned, and discovering which one is most appropriate for a given situation.  When should  you say You makin sense and in what situations should you say You be makin sense? (The answer, if youre curious: The second is the continuous aspect, so say you be makin sense  to compliment someone who is wise; the first sentence is only  a valid response to a one-time sense-maker.) Practicing like this reveals the grammar in a much more concrete way, and, more importantly, ensures that you can then spit that grammar out  correctly in context, when the appropriate situation arises.The same applies to learning prepositions, cases, conjugations, valency, etc. Learn the rules from your book, look at the examples, and then create and use more examples with your teacher. In what situations does this rule work? What are the exceptions?16.  Limit your lessonsLanguages are Pandoras boxes of beauty and complications, and learners c an be tempted to devour them voraciously. A lesson about the simple past tense can quickly devolve into the intricacies of the past subjunctive, and a simple, early lesson in  talking about the weather can wander off into hail, tornadoes and mudslides.But, if you want to remember anything afterwards, youre much better off learning just a few limited words and phrases, and how to employ them in lots of different contexts. Likewise for grammar, if you get just one construction down really well, itll stay with youâ€"save the variations that it can lead to  for your next lesson.17. Have some unstructured conversation lessonsConversation lessons are probably less useful than the more structured lesson ideas presented above, but theyre more fun, and they can also uncover very important  vocabulary and constructions that you can focus on in future lessons.If you do an unstructured lesson (for example, on a day that youve been too tired or  busy to prepare anything more concrete), at least take a minute or two to think of a few areas that you want to discuss. Perhaps there are things that you havent yet tried to talk about in your target language? Or an area that needs more practice?During the lesson, make sure that you or your tutor  notes down the new words and phrases that you discover, so that you can go back to them later. A great way to review after such a lesson is to write up a short text about your opinions, using the new vocabulary, and then submit it for correction either to your teacher or to lang-8.com, a lovely website where native speakers correct each others texts.I hope that these hacks have given you some useful ideas for optimizing your lessons and integrating them  into your total language learning plan. If done right, online tutoring sessions are something that you look forward to during the day, and think about long afterwards.Mose Hayward is a  polyglot  who blogs  about the scientifically proven benefits of (and excuses for) tipsy  language lea rning, among other silliness.

Chemistry Counting Atoms in Compounds Worksheets

Chemistry Counting Atoms in Compounds WorksheetsChemistry counting atoms in compounds worksheets have a very simple concept. You must first decide what element you are going to analyze. Then, you will be given a list of chemical compounds and you will only need to click on the particular compound you want to determine its properties. After clicking the button, the compound is shown in all its terms, which includes weight, color, atomic weight, and so on.Once you have selected the compound you would like to study, the worksheet tells you which results you can get when you determine the properties of the compound. The list may include all the properties of the compound. Or, it may not. There are some calculations that depend on the unit used in the calculations. For example, if you choose grams instead of grams per pound, the results are of different values, and you can also get different results for a unit of alcohol.Once you have selected the results you want to get, you are prompted to calculate the weight. If you want to be more precise, you can add the grams to the particular element, so that the result can be easily converted to pounds. Otherwise, you can take the grams as a reference.Once you have chosen your result, the button that says the result in pounds is clicked. The formula for this is the formula of the element, times the result from the worksheet, divided by the number of grams in the workbook. Then, you enter the result as your weight. Usually, you are able to click the button in the worksheet after entering the required results. This makes the worksheet very user-friendly.A new worksheet is created whenever you make a change to the formula in the worksheet. If you choose a different formula, the old one is overwritten. The worksheet refreshes itself automatically when the formulas change.The answer button in the worksheet tells you how to solve the equation for the different substances. A quick calculation is usually easier than the calculation s based on units. You only need to enter the number of grams in the solution you want to determine its properties. Also, you can click the button to get the results in grams. The result will also give you the atomic weight and the molecular weight.Once you have solved the equation for the compound, you can click the button to see the solid solution for the compound you have determined. You can study more about chemistry counting atoms in compounds worksheets if you are interested. Just read the sections below. Then, you can click the button to get the solution for the particular compound you chose.

Writing Linear Equations

Writing Linear Equations Linear equations are the equations in the standard form of Ax + By = C, where A, B and C are integers and A and B are not equal to 0. Linear equations consist of variables which have the highest exponent as 1 and these equations can be solved to get the values of the variables. In a coordinate plane, given a point on the line and the slope of the line, we can write the equation of the line, which is always in the form of a linear equation. Example 1: Write the equation of a line with a slope of 1 and passing through the point (2, 5). Given: Slope of the line, m = 1 Point = (2, 5) Point slope form of a line== (y y1) = m(x x1) Therefore we get: (y 5) = 1(x 2) This gives: y 5 = x 2 Simplifying the equation we get: x 2 y + 5 = 0 == x y + 3 = 0 Hence the linear equation can be written as x y = -3. Example 2: Write the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and passing through the point (3, -4). Given: Slope of the line, m = -2 Point = (3, -4) Point slope form of a line== (y y1) = m(x x1) Therefore we get: (y (-4)) = -2(x 3) This gives: y + 4 = -2x + 6 Simplifying the equation we get: y + 4 + 2x 6 = 0 == 2x + y - 2 = 0. Hence the linear equation can be written as 2x + y = 2.

The 7 Universal Laws of Networking - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / The 7 Universal Laws of Networking - Introvert Whisperer The 7 Universal Laws of Networking As an Introvert Leader, your ability to network and forge relationships will be key to your upward trajectory.  A good way to gauge how well you’ve done in this area is to think about how many people you could call for referrals inside other companies.  Arg!  Kind of hits home for you?  Not feeling so good about this area?   At some point, your job opportunities will be directly linked to how well your network ties are.   Waiting to develop these relationships is like using the lottery as your retirement strategy.  It might work but don’t count on it.   A great place to get started is by first understanding the Universal Laws of Networking:   Law 1 â€"  All relationships are 80/20. People are inherently lazy about the development and maintenance of relationships.  That means you may put in much more effort in terms of contacting the other person than they will.  You’d think all great relationships are about even in terms of maintenance but they don’t tend to be.  If you simply approach it with that in mind,,the other person will love you for your efforts.   Law 2 â€" Find common ground. The basis for all relationships is having something in common.  For people you work with, the obvious connection is your place of business.  You may have to dig deeper with other non-work people.  I find that talking food and great eating experiences can create common ground.  If you met the person in a group setting, there may be that as your shared interest.   Law 3 â€"  Be interested. I read something when I was growing up that a sign of a good conversationalist is when you ask the other person questions about them.  Talking about you is always seriously fun!  Show you’re interested by asking them about them.   Law 4 â€" Look good. OK, I put that in here just to see if you’re paying attention.  Of course, we all look marvelous!   Law 5 â€" Connect them with others. The best networkers and relationship rock stars are the ones that connect their network to each other.  This is not random introductions but people that can make a difference to the career or life of another.  I know a gal that is routinely introducing me to someone through email because she thinks we would be mutually beneficial.  Those introductions can be anywhere from a business referral to simply a cool person she thinks I’d like to know.   Law 6  â€" Every contact has value. You may not know it at first or even second blush but every one you come in contact with is good for you to know.  You may have to dig a while before you understand why.   Law 7 â€" Them first, you second. When we approach our relationships with others by first understanding how we can help them or support them, your network will flourish.  Think of how irritated you get when you know someone is talking to you simply to use you or ask you for something.  No one likes to be used.  This is the most important law of them all.  You will be the lovable, fuzz-ball that is irresistible to everyone.  Go for it!   We so often think that if we only learn one more “hard” skill our career will soar.  While those skills are always great to learn, your skill with people will be the single biggest success factor in your career.

Plantae Kingdom Online Biology Tutors Tutorpace Kingdom Plantae are large group of organisms which are primarily multicellular and photosynthetic ,some of them are unicellular as well. Kingdom Plantae include algae, Bryophytes Pteridophytes, Gymnosperms and Angiosperms. Algae: These are aquatic plants. The plant body is called thallus; it may be unicellular but mostly multicellular, filamentous or differentiated into holdfast, stipe, and lamina. The algae are classified on the basis of their photosynthetic pigments and a type of reserve food. Red algae are marine .Photosynthetic pigments are chlorophyll, phycoerythrin, and phycocyanin.They complete the life cycle in two phases-a diploid and a haploid one. Brown algae include some of the largest type which shows differentiation in to hold fast, stipe and lamina. Accessory pigment is fucoxanthin.The cell wall is composed of phycocolloids which prevent the drying up of algae when exposed. Green algae have chlorophyll a and b as photosynthetic pigment. Mostly fresh water, they may be unicellular or filamentous, the stored food is starch. Sexual reproduction generally involves flagellate gametes. Bryophytes: They are primitive land plants .They include liver worts and mosses. Plant body is a gametophyte and bear antheridia and archegonia. The sporophyte is reduced. It reproduces asexually by means of spores which again give rise to gametophyte. Pteridophytes: They are vascular but seedless plants. They possess root, stem and leaves. The plant body is a sporophyte; it reproduces asexually by spores produced inside sporangia. The spore on germination produces prothallus which is the gametophyte which produces antheridium and archegonia on them and reproduces sexually to form the sporophyte. Gymnosperms: Seed bearing plants, do not produce flowers. Plant body is a sporophyte. Reproduction occurs by producing male and female cones. Angiosperms: They are called flowering plants and constitute the most advanced and highly successful group. They produce seeds which are enclosed in fruits.
