Organic Chemistry Tutors and Their Use of Probability

Organic Chemistry Tutors and Their Use of ProbabilityYou've already established yourself as an organic chemistry tutor and you've now got a load of queries on a number of subjects. Well, one of the most common things which people have is the fact that they are not being given good grades.It is possible for your organic chemistry tutor to do this but I would advise against it. There are many cases where teachers are not willing to intervene in such matters.Your tutor has made it clear that he will not try to alter your grades, no matter what you may say or think. He has already agreed to be your tutor for the period you've arranged, and he is required to work according to the schedules. This doesn't include grade disputes.Do you want to keep up with your courses by trying to work out for yourself how your classmates got their grades or were reported to have gotten them? Do you want to start questioning the grading system when you're not even sure about how your friend got 100%? Or do you want to spend your time looking for more books and a better grade just because it's a 'complicated' thing to do?There is a very simple solution if you want to get around the question of how your friend got the perfect grade or that classmate got a high score or this and that in certain situations: Probability. This is one of the most respected variables in the school at present and has been for some time.Probability is a very specific type of prediction, which can be changed into either a positive or a negative one. So, if a student has a very good probability of passing a certain subject, for example, she can use it to make predictions as to how good a student she'll be at the same subject. A student who isn't going to achieve much from the subject, however, cannot change his probability into something more positive.Every school has a particular subject. Probability may be used to determine which students have better chances of being in the top rank of students for a certain su bject. Here, instead of placing a more complex calculation into the hands of your tutor, you can use probability to make predictions accurately.If you want to understand probability, all you need to do is add up all the probabilities that relate to a given subject and find the sum. In this way, you can see who has the better probabilities for a particular subject. This way, you can set yourself on the right path.

Helping a Prodigy Through Her Struggles

Helping a Prodigy Through Her StrugglesI sat in a coffee shop in Kuala Lumpur last week and watched as the young lady who had requested me to help her tutor a hijab Dian Pelangi almost fell off her chair. If you think that is bad then imagine having to teach a fellow human being how to swim! She was in tears, asking me not to cancel my appointment.However, I am not a swimmer, so I sat there and watched, watching her struggle to keep her composure. She is a pupil from a school in Malaysia that is at the very bottom of the national rankings. To be honest, she has very little chance of even making it through school this year.A year ago, this girl went to the principal's office and told him that her school would close if the government would give them the money to buy her a school uniform or her father's money, and then the money would go on her husband's money. She did not even have an idea where she was going to live this summer after she left school!As you can imagine, she is very ups et and I felt for her. I can't help thinking about how this could have been avoided if she had been taught that the only way to get to the top is to work hard, play hard, and stay humble. Hopefully, with the right information, she can learn from this experience and move up the ranks!The sad part of all this is that the school that was teaching the hijab Dian Pelangi is now closing its doors for good because of a combination of poor leadership, lack of funding, and a lot of families like hers that cannot afford to send their children to school. My friend thinks that they should have just had a one to one meeting with her first and then gave her an ultimatum to move or they would be forced to close. The school itself has faced many difficulties recently, but everyone says that this is a once in a generation problem, so, maybe she should have had a higher quality school than this one!With that said, I wanted to help this hijab Dian Pelangi because I know her family. I know that she has a great family that will support her and love her no matter what happens. I know that her parents are struggling to survive as well, but they are doing everything they can for their daughter, which is why I sat down with her.There is nothing better than seeing a person grow up, and I saw that with hijab Dian Pelangi. She is going to have so much more in her future than just learning how to swim.

Chemistry Chapter 5 Review Answers

Chemistry Chapter 5 Review AnswersThe Chemistry chapter 5 review answers can vary depending on the goal of the students. It is important that you know the intended outcome of the student's chemistry class. In order to accomplish this goal, they will need to answer the questions.The reviews for the chapter 5 can vary, but not in the order that they are written. You should be looking at these reviews as they come out. Your students will expect the answers to be in a particular order and you will want to adhere to the following general guidelines. First, the results of the material that is being tested and the answers that are given by the students. Second, the level that the students are at as a student.Once you have finished writing the review answers, the section should be graded, according to the following criteria. To begin with, grade the answers on a scale of 1 to 10. Then, make sure that all the students get the same grade. If one or two students get an A, the others should rece ive a B or C.Next, look at your students' grades for the previous section. If there is a difference, then evaluate the grade based on that section, as well as the grade you give them for this section. In other words, do not simply give them a grade.The next factor to be evaluated is the response time. Make sure that all students are able to respond to the quiz questions in a timely manner.

While the materials need to be challenging, you also need to make sure that all students can focus and understand what is being taught. This means that the chemistry section needs to be written in a way that is easy to understand. Give all students equal attention and give students feedback.Keep in mind that you and your classroom teachers need to work together to make sure that the students are receiving the best education possible.

Heres How 3 Holidays Can Help You Learn Spanish [Infographic]

Heres How 3 Holidays Can Help You Learn Spanish [Infographic] Suzy S. As youre learning how to speak Spanish, its a great idea to learn about the culture and Spanish traditions at the same time! Here, Honolulu, HI tutor Jinan B.  shares 3 important holidays youll want to get familiar with Learning about Hispanic holidays is a wonderful way to learn specific vocabulary and increase your understanding of the cultural aspects of the Spanish language. The Day of the Dead, the New Year/New Years Eve, and Epiphany are three widely-celebrated Hispanic holidays that are important to become familiar with. After reading about these Spanish traditions, you might even be inspired to go practice your Spanish in a Spanish-speaking country and enjoy the festivities at the same time! 1.  el Día de los Muertos The first holiday is the Day of the Dead (el Día de los Muertos), a tradition  that you might already be familiar with, as it has spread from Mexico to the United States. On this day, family members gather to honor their deceased loved ones with elaborate celebrations. They create an altar (el altar) within their house that they decorate with photos of the deceased, as well as the deceased’s favorite foods and drinks and a circular bread that represents the cycle of life. Another bread also central to the Day of the Dead is  el pan de muertos, which has a sign of the cross on top of it. Family members will also go to the  cemetery  (el cementerio) to decorate the tombs (decorar las tumbas) with flowers (las flores). They remain there until midnight (medianoche). 2.  el Año Nuevo/Nochevieja The New Year/New Years Eve (el Año Nuevo/Nochevieja) is celebrated with festivities throughout the Hispanic world in a variety of ways. Two especially interesting traditions are those of Ecuador and Spain. In Ecuador, larger-than-life figures of key individuals from the previous year are displayed and then burned at midnight. In Spain, people consume 12  grapes (las uvas) with each strike of the clock (el reloj) at midnight. If all of the grapes are consumed in time, it symbolizes 12 months (doce meses) of good luck (buena suerte). 3.  el Día de los Reyes Another interesting Hispanic holiday that is also celebrated in the United States (although to a lesser degree than in the Hispanic world) is Epiphany (el Día de los Reyes). This day  recognizes the existence of God (Dios) in the human form as Jesus Christ. What makes this Spanish tradition especially fun is that it relates to children. Just as the three wise men (los reyes magos) visited Jesus Christ as an infant, so do the three wise men visit homes before dawn (el alba) on January 6th (el seis de enero)  to leave Christmas gifts (los regalos de Navidad) for children. Got all that? Heres a handy infographic for a quick run-down: Share this Image On Your Site Please include attribution to http://takelessons.com with this graphic. As you continue to learn Spanish, you will find even greater significance in these holidays as your understanding of Hispanic culture increases. In addition, these holidays are simply a few examples of the many festivities that occur throughout the year in the Hispanic world. You can practice the vocabulary associated with these holidays as you encounter Spanish speakers by asking questions (for example, “ ¿Cómo celebra usted el Día de los Muertos?”) and sharing your own cultural holidays (“Aquí en los Estados Unidos, nosotros…”). The more fun you can have learning Spanish conversation and vocabulary, the more likely you are to practice frequently and consistently. Jinan B. tutors in Honolulu, HI.

Ask an Admissions Expert Brittany Maschal

Ask an Admissions Expert Brittany Maschal Varsity Tutors brings you insider tips and advice straight from nationally recognized admissions experts. Brittany Maschal has held roles in several admissions offices and areas of student services including those at the University of Pennsylvaniaand Princeton University. Additionally, she acquired her Doctorate in Higher Education at The George Washington Universityand currently runs her own consulting service, B. Maschal Educational Consulting. See what she had to say about the undergraduate admissions process: VT: How far ahead of time should a student begin working on his or her college application? Brittany: Better late than never is not applicable when it comes to beginning the work that goes into crafting a strong application. If you have your sights set on college, begin jotting down all of the activities you take part in and start speaking with your counselor about charting out your coursework in grade nine. This may sound a bit early, but you will be happy you did so come junior year. Nothing is set in stone, and changes can always be made on an as-needed basis. Though filling out actual applications wont begin until the summer before senior year, familiarizing yourself with school-specific and Common App requirements well in advance will certainly take some of the stress out of the process come crunch time. VT: What are the best ways to go about selecting a terrific essay topic? Brittany: Essays are a very important component of the application package. Think of them as an avenue through which you have the opportunity to really wow the admissions committee. What constitutes a terrific topic may vary from reader to reader, but choosing an experience where you are able to highlight what the rest of your application may not convey or convey strongly is essential. More important than the topic, terrific essays utilize a positive tone, are insightful, and should demonstrate a candidates ability to be reflective. They focus less on the what and more on the how and why of an experience, situation, or process. VT: Are there any essay topics you get tired of seeing or would warn students to stay away from? Brittany: Avoid clich or overused topics such as the big win, divorce, or death, and those that may lead the reader to believe you are making an excuse for poor academic performance or lack of participation in extracurriculars. Taboo topics and anything that could be perceived as inappropriate should also be avoided at all costs. Very few applicants are able to craft an essay on a topic of this nature that is well received. Play it safe - you never know who your reader will be and what they may feel crosses the line. VT: What is the biggest mistake a student can make on a college application? Brittany: Starting the process too late! I am a huge advocate of making the application a priority early on. Think of it as an ongoing project throughout high school and one that the applicant has the power to excel in, if they so desire. Organization and self-motivation are key here, and the time and effort one puts into their application and supplementary materials (essays, resume, recs) shows. The biggest mistakes I have taken note of are in the form of simple errors such as grammar and spelling. Ive seen instances where applicants mistype their own name! One way to avoid these fatal application flaws is to reach out for support during the process, ask a friend, family member, or mentor/advisor to help you spot check your work. A few sets of eyes are always better than one, so dont be afraid to reach out to others for support. VT: What is the typical process an admissions officer goes through to evaluate applications? Brittany: It depends at what point an officer receives/evaluates the application (Pre-read, 1st read, 2nd read, Committee), and this may vary from university to university. Generally, test scores and grades will be reviewed first. Essays, letters of recommendation and support, if applicable, and then extracurriculars/resums are reviewed in detail, in addition to any other information that may be in the applicants file perhaps an interview report. How each component of the application is rated or factored into whether or not an applicants file moves on is different at every school. The admissions websites of many schools make clear what they take into account when evaluating applications, so be sure to review this information if it is available. VT: What do you think is the single most important thing a student should make sure they present in the best possible way on their application? Brittany: Students need to demonstrate that they are capable of undertaking the level of academic work that will be expected and required of them at the collegiate level and at that particular college or university. VT: How should students go about determining the culture of a university, and whether they would be a good fit? Brittany: Fit is a two-way street. Do your research online and in person by visiting the campus if possible. Make contacts with admissions officers, current students, and alumni. Ask questions, take notes and reflect. Can you see yourself at university X? Will you be successful and happy there academically and socially? VT: Early-action, early-decision, binding/non-binding, regular decisions...With so many choices when applying, what do you recommend to students? Brittany: Do what is best for you taking into consideration your own unique situation. Dead-set on a certain university? Have you visited, done your homework over time, dont need to compare financial aid awards, and decided it is a great fit academically and otherwise? Then apply early decision. Really like a few schools but maybe arent so sure of which one you like best? Maybe your essays need work or maybe you need the fall semester to get your grades up a bit. Then apply regular decision. If you find yourself somewhere in between, early action could be an option. Either way (ED or EA), make sure you are very clear to differentiate between binding vs. non-binding agreements. VT: How important are grades and standardized test scores when admissions decisions are being made? Brittany: Extremely important. From my experience they are the foundation of the application, whether a school wants to be transparent regarding this level of importance or not. VT: What tips do you have for students asking their teachers for letters of recommendation? Brittany: Ask so far in advance that you think it may be too far in advance to ask. Life happens (recommenders have lives, too!) and you want to make sure they have enough time to complete and get the letter to the admissions office prior to the deadline. If you hesitate to ask early because you want them to get to know you more or better, well you are probably asking someone who does not know you well enough, and I would suggest finding a more appropriate recommender. Ask in person (self-explanatory), and if they say yes, set up a time to meet with them to go over your academic record, choice in major, essay topics, and any other information that may support your cause and may be important for a recommender to have, such as future plans (academic and extracurricular). Be sure to let them know the importance of making the letter detailed and unique to you general form letters add nothing to your candidacy. Visit B.

Learning English for TOEFL IELTS Whats the Difference

Learning English for TOEFL IELTS Whats the Difference Students on ESOL Courses Want to Know: What is the Difference Between IELTS TOEFL? ChaptersFacts About Both English ExamsEnglish Course Exams as a Foreign LanguageInternational English Language Testing SystemComparing and Contrasting Exams for English CoursesHow to Study for Any International Standardised Exam for English LessonsWhere to Find English Resources OnlineWhat About ESOL Courses?Students of Esl teachers around the world always ask: Should I take TOEFL or IELTS?Learners of English also ask: which one is harder? The difficulty of either exam notwithstanding, selecting the proper test for your English learning goals depends on many factors.IELTS materials cover a range of regional accents, including American.Because both tests are international examinations, it is acceptable to use either American spelling or British English vocabulary on IELTS, in your short answers and compositions.Favor versus favour, for example.However, once you choose one expressions style, you must maintain it throughout the exam. It is not acceptable to vary between American and Oxf ord English. Even if all of your answers are technically correct, any words written in the alternate English will be counted as incorrect. Learn hot to memorize a larger vocabulary here.If you write your first few answers using the Queen's English, any American English used thereafter would be considered an error, to be counted against your overall score.It is not as important to maintain consistency in one or the other style of English for TOEFL. The focus is more on syntax and grammar.Let us now take an in-depth look at both exams.No need for Scantrons; today TOEFL is taken on the computer. (Source: Pixabay. Credit: Lecroitg)English Course Exams as a Foreign LanguageBackgroundDuring the 1960s, as global travel became easier, colleges in the US faced the growing problem of international students migrating for education, who had no real English language skills.A national council, made up of government and private sector leaders, was convened to ensure that all foreign students arriv ing in America to further their education would be able to understand their teachers and participate in class.The first versions of the test were administered in conjunction with Stanford University. Later, the College Board was assigned to oversee testing and updates to the exam.EvolutionInitially, the exam was a traditional pen and paper affair, administered in an academic environment and monitored by a proctor.For the spoken English portion, candidates were called into a booth or room, one by one, to answer a series of questions designed to measure critical and rhetorical thinking skills as well as speaking skills.Because demand was so high, students wishing to enroll in American universities had to wait, sometimes up to two years, for the opportunity to prove their English language abilities with TOEFL.This led to the development of the CBT (literally: computer-based test) which formed the basis of the online exam that learners from all over the world are familiar with.TOEFL Tod ayExcept in regions where Internet connexions are unreliable or unavailable, the TOEFL is administered strictly online.Those areas of the world that do not rely heavily on computers still test with pen and paper, with a proctor and oral examiner.Since the inception of standardised English exams for international students in 1962, TOEFL set the bar for language qualifications non native students must clear before attending university in an English-speaking country.IELTS formulated a comparable, but more elaborate exam 1980, which saw global launch nine years later.IELTS registration forms can be found online. (Source: Pixabay. Credit: Annemcdon)International English Language Testing SystemIELTS offers two exams: General English, a test that immigrants seeking work can take to demonstrate their proficiency with the language before entering the UK or any of the Commonwealth Countries.Our focus is on the Academic Exam, specifically for prospective students hoping to matriculate at unive rsity in the UK, Canada, Australia or New Zealand.BackgroundThe English Language Testing Service, or ELTS as it was then known, was the brainchild of Cambridge English Language Assessment, a division of the University of Cambridge, and the British Council.Testing was designed to mirror the use of everyday English; phrases a native speaker might say. The exam incorporated various regional accents and dialects, including American (but excluding Scottish).Today, its format reflects changes made in language learning and English teaching methods since its inception.EvolutionBecause of ongoing difficulties for teachers in administering the test, it was redesigned to include a more international content. To that end, Australian Universities and Colleges joined in the effort, giving the exam its current slang name.A later revision brought about a distinction between the reading and writing portions of the exam. The previous thematic link was thought to prevent a true assessment of the test takers' abilities.For example, if the reading topic was Finding Work in Australia, the written skills portion would require the examinee to write about How to Find Work in Australia. The most recent overhaul to the reading and writing modules brought them more in line with general academic standards: same timing, length of responses and reporting of scores.IELTS TodayAll over the world, the exam is still administered in the traditional pen and paper manner, with the spoken portion done live, in a face-to-face interview. Results of the oral exam are tallied immediately.The written portion of the exam is allotted one hour because it is to be written by hand rather than typed into a computer.IELTS is rapidly becoming the exam of choice for people in Asia and the Middle East, with more than two million test takers worldwide.IELTS ranks test takers into bands  that loosely correspond to a set of points.TOEFL was developed, and continues to be maintained exclusively in America; IELTS was initially developed in Britain but soon requested international input to make their exam more globally relevant.Both exams are international, meaning a TOEFL would be accepted in Britain, just as IELTS would be sufficient to register at any American university.However, American institutions prefer the American exam and IELTS is regarded better in Britain and the Commonwealth countries. How to Study for Any International Standardised Exam for English LessonsBegin with the end in mind â€" Stephen CoveyThat is good advice when choosing the exam that is right for you.Your end-goal being pursuing studies abroad, you must choose which school you hope to enroll at, or at least which country you would prefer.Knowing that IELTS is favoured in the UK, if that is your destination of choice, you should opt for English lessons that improve Oxford English literacy and fluency.To focus your English learning on British English, you should:Read a variety of materials, not just textbooks.This exam is meant to test your ability to understand the language in all of its aspects, including the idiom, social situations and how to speak to government officials.Listen to a range of spoken English.IELTS is truly international, therefore your listening skills require the ability to understand English through the assortment of accents and dialects that are spoken during the exam. Segregate your vocabulary!Most schools teaching English as a second language use a blend of British and American English in their curriculum. To avoid losing points on the exam because of variances in spelling, make the Queen's English your focus.Practice English writingIELTS includes a hand-written portion. Be sure your writing is legible and your spelling is correct.Finding IELTS study materials online is easy (Source: Pixabay)Where to Find English Resources OnlineAnyone seeking materials for learning English can find all manner of test prep sites on the Internet.Here we detail a few pages you can turn to that are not specifically related to exam preparation.The British Council hosts a site with podcasts, quizzes and reading material that reflect everyday English usage.Our Council has a page specifically dedicated to IELTS study, too! The BBC has a page on how to learn English that you can investigate.To practice for your exam, you can take past-year IELTS tests for free.One last bit of advice: do not study English for the sole purpose of passing an exam â€" whichever one you decide to take.The pursuit of knowledge is more valuable than its possession â€" Albert EinsteinIt may sound contrary, but learning a language is more of a cultivation than an academic project.Much as you would tend to a garden, a child or an elderly needing care, language studies need passion, dedication and commitment.IELTS is fashioned to foil rote memorization by generating random questions and essay prompts. Traditional methods of exam preparation will not suit for an assay at IELTS; it is designed to gauge flu ency of the language rather than proficiency in any one aspect.Thus is it best that you change your overall goal to becoming fluent in English, rather than mastering aspects of English simply to achieve good marks.What About ESOL Courses?English for Speakers of other Languages, or ESOL, is not an academic standards exam.This test is geared toward people who hope to immigrate to any English speaking country except America, for work or to make a new start in life.While the exam measures proficiency in all the facets of English, the topics involve how to get along in life.Shopping, health care, dealing with government officials and the law are all broached in Britain's Life in the UK exam.Should you aim to adopt British citizenship, you must demonstrate at least a level 3 proficiency with English. Otherwise, you need to take English lessons online  in intermediate English, after which you may retest.IELTS, TOEFL and ESOL: all acronyms that represent essentially the same concept.Proving your English skills through any of these exams will open doors professionally and financially.Learning English as a vocation will enrich your life. Why not learn English through film?Now you’ve started to learn English, be sure to test your level with with Quizzes  prior to your formal exams.
