Chemistry in German
Chemistry in GermanMany students find it difficult to master the fundamentals of Chemistry in German because they do not have the proper knowledge of how to use an instrument. Teachers need to understand that not only does chemistry have to be studied, but also taught properly and correctly. By introducing Chemistry into a German school, the students will learn the basics and fundamental methods of the material which will open up many interesting and exciting ways for them to understand the real science of chemistry and what it has to offer.There are many opportunities for kids to be exposed to Chemistry. Many schools nowadays offer programs that will allow the students to take courses at a local high school that will give them the basics of the science. Many of these classes may also include labs where students can go to learn how to develop their own chemicals.One of the things that a student should remember is that Chemistry is not limited to learning about different compounds, bu t rather it also deals with the uses of these compounds. It is important to understand the causes and effects of the compounds that are used in Chemistry. It is important to know that the different substances will react and form different compounds. These reactions can include the different transformations such as oxidation, reduction, addition, subtraction, dissociation, mixtures, solubility, and so on.In the US, the courses in chemistry are usually organized into four major subjects and each of them deal with different processes and what they may do. Chemists usually have different subject matters such as organic chemistry, solid state chemistry, and theoretical chemistry. German is one of the few countries that includes Chemistry in its school curriculum.Students who take classes in chemistry in German will often learn the concepts of science and how they can be applied in different situations. One of the most common mistakes students make when learning chemistry is that they sta rt off by looking at a chemical substance. They then start to think about why it happens and how it changes. They will then come to know about the scientific process and how these reactions take place.Students who get into a course in Chemistry in German will become better equipped to learn about the various elements that exist in the world. They will also learn more about the different chemical reactions that take place and learn about the different factors that can affect these reactions.Students who study Chemistry in German will be able to improve their understanding of chemical concepts and develop more of an understanding of the scientific process. The various information that students will learn about their fundamental concepts of Chemistry will be a great way for them to be more aware of the world around them and thus improve the way they think and interact with others.

LOI English Teachers Anne Fields
LOI English Teachers Anne Fields Learning English can be helpful at the professional level. That is why, nowadays, parents are willing to spend more to give children the opportunity to learn English. Because, when one is younger, the battle with learning accents, for example, can be won rather quickly. Many LOI English teachers have worked teaching children, like Anne Fields, who believes that children should start learning languages as soon as possible.Anne is currently living in Bogota, Colombia, from where she teaches English to people from around the world. She is from the United States and has lived in Argentina, Dominican Republic and Haiti. According to her, many of her students are from Brazil, Russia, Japan, Spain and the United States. I found it odd when she told me that she had students from the US, but then she explained that those who are learning English with her while living in the US are people from all over the world who moved there and now want to improve their English skills in a safe space, like an individual Skype class, where they are not judged by their mistakes.She studied French and Spanish in college, therefore she is familiar with the common struggles that any language student has to deal with. One of the things she believes is that is very important for those who are learning English is to have a patient teacher. Also, she believes that, even though she speaks other languages, her classes must given in English. Of course there are exceptions, like when the student is a beginner and does not understand a single word in English. However, Anne prefers to use hand motions, pictures, and examples to make her students stop translating their thoughts and start thinking in English. In addition to that, Anne does not like giving the correct answers without a proper explanation, for her explaining the situation is mandatory.Anne told me that some of her students ask her how much time they would need to learn English. That is obviously a tricky question, because people tend t o learn and dedicate themselves differently. So, Anne says to her students that it takes dedication, the more you practice, the faster you will learn. Besides that, Anne tells her students that the more English they experience in their daily lives, the better, so reading news and listening to music in English are some of her pieces of advice. She also tells them to change the language in their computer, smartphone and Facebook, so they start to have a daily contact with the language.
6 Facts You Probably Didnt Know About Saudi Arabia
6 Facts You Probably Didnt Know About Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia is much, much more than vast desert, camels and oil. The Middle Eastâs biggest nation is a vibrant hub for Arabian culture and is a highly significant location both religiously and historically. Here are some of our favorite recent facts about Saudi Arabia!1. Saudi Arabia is one of the most generous countries in the world, donating over $4 billion in aid each year to developing and disaster-torn nations.2. By 2018, Jeddah will be home to the worldâs tallest building, the Kingdom Tower, which is planned to rise more than a kilometer into the air.3. The Arabian oryx, native to the country, was once classified as extinct in the wild. However, thanks to a government conservation project, the species has been reintroduced in to the desert from captivity and is making a comeback. This is the only documented case in history of an extinct animal being restored.4. The Saudi flag is completely green because of its significance in the Islamic faith. Most Islamic states incorpor ate green into their flag. The color represents peace, life and fertility.5. Riyadh, the capital city, is the 30th biggest city in the world by population and is home to over 5 million people.6. Most milk on sale in Saudi Arabia is produced by sheep, goats or camels.

Why We Need Unions
Why We Need Unions Photo from news.unioncircle.comfundamentally function to protect workers from companies and other organizations seeking to abuse their power by ignoring (or even eliminating) workers rights. They truly embody the phrase strength in numbers, as workers who are members of a union can collectively bargain for fairer wages, enhanced benefits, better work environments, or all of these aspects combined. Another important benefit of unions is that they give workers the chance to negotiate at the same level as that of upper-level management and executives, in part because a group of unified workers backed by an organization dedicated to preserving workers rights is far more powerful than a single worker doing the same.We must not forget that a workers overall performance and morale is usually connected to fair treatment in the workplace. Imagine if you had unsafe or unsanitary working conditions, were denied adequate breaks, werent paid on time, or received less payment than is required by law. At some companies, you might even be dealing with all of these situations. How motivated would you be to arrive at work everyday and perform efficiently? Not very. Like any other institution, there exist unethical companies that not only act unfairly toward employees; they also violate employees rights as guaranteed by law in their treatment. I wholeheartedly agree with Kevin Drum, a political blogger for Mother Jones, when he states that unions are also the only large-scale movement left in America that persistently acts as a countervailing power against corporate power [and]that persistently acts in the economic interests of the middle class.After all, it has often been discovered that when union membership declines, economic inequality increases. Meanwhile, eras of increased union membership correspond to raised wages for lower- and middle-class workers, therefore increasing income equality. This is obviously not in the interest of everyone, but it is in the interest of a gr eat deal of the U.S. population. There have been many conversations about increasing income equality in the recent past, and one way to help this process along is to educate workers not to mention the general population about unions. They are not communist. They are not out to take away anyones wealth. They exist simply to ensure fair treatment of workers as well as decent, livable wages. As Kevin Drum argued recently, the decline of unions over the past few decades has left corporations and the rich with essentially no powerful opposition. No matter what doubts you might have about unions and their role in the economy, never forget that destroying them destroys the only real organized check on the power of the business community in America.
The Rise of For-Profit Higher Education
The Rise of For-Profit Higher Education As Britain's second for-profit institution is granted the title of University we discuss the implications for-profit higher-ed will have on the landscape of UK education and society. In Britain we have an ingrained, congenital suspicion of the Profit Motive. Thus, predictably, when the private BPP College of Professional Studies ascended to BPP University with the government's blessing, the UCU (University and College Union) decried the move. It will Open The Floodgates, they said. It will Endanger Our Reputation, they added. We will Become Like America. But how valid are their concerns? Do they have basis, beyond our cultural phobia for the Free Market? First off, let's look at the state of play as it stands. The UK has over 200 Universities and other HE establishments, the overwhelmingly vast majority of which are nonprofit foundations, usually part-funded by the government, all of which have the autonomy to set and award their own degrees. In the 'good old days', they required no tuition fees: receiving a top-quality education was simply a matter of making the grade. Then Labour introduced the 1000 'top-up' fees. This quickly trebled to something in the region of 3000. Then, as you know, they recently trebled again to 9000 (so much for just being a 'top up') - an act which will leave all graduates with a considerable millstone of student debt to carry. Admittedly, this 'debt' isn't the scary type of debt - the debt of creditors, banks and bailiffs - but more of a 'graduate tax' that is chipped off your monthly pay, along with Inco me Tax and the like. Well, at least at the moment it is. Policy could change, and however lenient the current government may be, the fact doesn't stand for future regimes. Where do private institutions fit in to this equation? Historically, there have been a few companies that have set up low-key colleges or institutes (categorically not universities; well, until recently), which have offered courses in various limited subjects (usually business related) and have often been affiliated with international entities (the city of Oxford sports an outpost for a Saudi university, for example). They have tended to cater to niche markets, and are no way near destabilizing or replacing the conventional HE pathway. But now, private universities (a serious step-up from colleges) are clearly here to stay. Being private, they will rely heavily on tuition fees to keep afloat. Their student intake will be their life-blood, even more so than conventional universities. So the question must be asked: what would make someone choose a private institution, as opposed to taking the well-trodden path of going to uni? Surely the Benign Debt of uni is preferable to the Scary Debt of private companies? Unless, of course, the fees for such institutions were within a manageable price bracket... as currently, they are. The BPP University will charge 5000 per year for a three-year degree, a far more manageable sum than 9000, even if it's meted via Benign Debt. You see, 5000 is a sum that in conceivably in the price range for many people to pay outright (start saving now, parents), negating the debt aspect entirely. Now, if private universities decide to go the way of the States with, quite frankly, ludicrous tuition fees, then what gives? Pupils can still go to conventional unis (which, at present, are far more prestigious anyway), leaving the rich and foolish to pursue their pipe-dreams. The idea that just by having universities that charge incredible fees, the UK HE scene will somehow 'Americanize' is silly: our Ivy League lies firmly in the Conventional area of things, and it's very unlikely that Oxbridge or the Russell Group will go private any time soon (forays into the Gulf excepted). ...at least for the moment. However, if a significant number of private universities spring up, gain popularity and then raise their fees (and demonstrate that people are willing to pay those fees), there is the danger that Conventional unis could follow suit (via government reform, of course), just because they can get away with it. Then we'd see the fees arms-race of the States, and we would be in a pickle. At the moment, however, this outcome is thankfully in the realm of speculative fiction. So what benefits may private universities (alongside conventional ones) have for UK students? Straight off the bat, they seem to be providing a cheaper alternative. An indirect benefit of this lower-priced private competition may include forcing the Gov to re-think its tuition fee policies in a downwards direction (the very essence of capitalist competition), encouraging them to spend more tax dollar on subsidizing education (is there ever a better use of public money?). The lower cost of private university, driven down by competition, could also make university education even more accessible, giving more people the chance to pursue professional careers and a better quality of life. Niche universities could arise, giving students' more choice of where and what to study. There will be, in real terms, more universities, meaning even greater choice (and geographical accessibility). Universities focused on later life learning may develop, unseating the still-extant stigma of being a 'mature' student. There are also a caveat which is, in a way, a flipside of previous points. While it is entirely possible the introduction of private universities will create greater choice for students, there is a danger that, responding to market forces, they will homogenize their courses into a morass of Business Studies variants, leaving liberal arts (and indeed hard sciences) floundering by the wayside. While the argument for the usefulness of liberal arts is for another blog piece (hint: it is very necessary), we should reject anything that would limit educational prospects on principle. This feeds directly into a fundamental question surrounding HE in general, not only private unis. To what extent should HE reflect and respond to current socioeconomic pressures? In short, should HE exist for education's sake, or to act as a personnel farm for Britain's commercial sectors? One could well argue that the very act of creating private universities is a manifestation of the latter. Is that necessarily a bad thing? Equally, since taxpayer money subsidizes conventional universities, surely there is an argument for making their courses industry-led and -centered as well? In a way, this question may be becoming redundant, as many universities are already electing to drop (or cut funding to) subjects with little economic impact. These are incredibly difficult issues to which there are no clear-cut answers. In the end it comes down to ideals: the ideal of a utopian anything-goes HE system, existing for its own sake, or a pragmatic, numbers-led HE system that feeds directly into the country's larger economy, and is informed by it. We certainly seem to be transitioning from the former to the latter, which many people would argue is a regression. They would say the utopian version of HE breeds innovation and new ideas (amusingly, anyone who's experienced the tangled world of academia would probably disagree), while the proponents of pragmatism would cite its increased economic efficiency and benefit as de facto justification. A minefield indeed. The point to take home from this is that private universities aren't a boogeyman, and current universities aren't the bastion of academic purity they claim to be. They are exist within the same system and are swayed by similar forces. However, private unis will rise and fall on their own merits, unlike conventional ones, so it's unlikely that the status quo will be destabilized just yet. Instead of scaremongering, the UCU and the press in general should take a nuanced view of the issue, especially as - if nothing else - it could be the wake-up call conventional HE needs to get its fee-structuring act together.

Tutor Time Livingston - How to Choose the Right Tutor Time Livingston
Tutor Time Livingston - How to Choose the Right Tutor Time LivingstonTutors come in all shapes and sizes, are they in person or online. At times, it may be difficult to choose a tutor time Livingston from the many offers that are available. It can be confusing and frustrating as a parent to choose the perfect tutor that can help your child learn the necessary skills. Here are some tips that can help you make an informed decision.One of the biggest differences between online tutors and face-to-face tutors is that a face-to-face tutor provides support directly to the student. This makes the tutoring experience a much more hands-on one. You have a face-to-face tutor that you can talk to while your child is receiving feedback. With an online tutor, you may not get that much control over the tutor's guidance and feedback.The second reason that it is important to make sure you compare multiple tutors before making a decision is because you want to be able to compare their tuition fees. Tui tion fees vary greatly depending on whether you are tutoring at home or at a local school. If you opt for a local school, this will be even more important because you will be paying the difference in tuition fees. For the same tutoring services, you will find it a bit more expensive for an online tutor versus a face-to-face tutor.In addition to comparison of tuition fees, consider the age group of the online tutors you are considering. The younger a student is, the less experience he or she will have with tutoring and might not be up to par for your child. Consider the tutor's level of experience and feedback that he or she has received in previous tutoring sessions.Another factor to consider is whether the online tutors that you are considering have worked with similar students in the past. Even if they seem to have plenty of experience, does this mean that they can provide tutoring that they have received in the past? Look for people who have been in your child's or teenager's cla ss for a long time. A lifetime of experience will be a big plus for your child.Do not forget to talk to the tutor about any additional fees for the tutoring session. It is true that tutoring services do charge a fee, but you should be sure that you are being charged only for the tutoring session. Most online tutors will also charge for extra materials that they give to your child. These extra charges should not be considered as part of the service fees. Make sure that you understand all fees in writing.If you have made it this far and you still feel overwhelmed by the selection of tutors that are available to you, then you may want to consider hiring a tutor to help your child. This way, you will not be forced to make a choice. Try online tutoring and find the right tutor to help your child develop a passion for learning.
Networking Opportunities for Introverted Professionals - Introvert Whisperer
Introvert Whisperer / Networking Opportunities for Introverted Professionals - Introvert Whisperer Networking Opportunities for Introverted Professionals Networking is often an essential part of finding a new position, exploring new opportunities, and even building a business â" but when youâre an introvert, the prospect of networking can sound overwhelming and unpleasant. If your stomach turns at the idea of making small talk with a room full of strangers, youâre not alone. Networking is difficult even for outgoing personalities, so it makes sense that introverts may naturally shy away from the idea. But just because youâre introverted doesnât mean that you need to give up the idea of networking entirely. In fact, there are many ways that you can focus on networking without necessarily interacting with people on a face-to-face basis. Focus on Your Presentation How you present yourself is important in networking, and that applies to networking in person as well as online. Start by getting active on social media platforms, particularly on LinkedIn. Ask a friend or hire a photographer to take a professional headshot of you and focus on making your profile both professional and up-to-date. As youâre working on your LinkedIn profile, as well as your resume, pay attention to the details that matter. These are items like certifications, continuing education opportunities youâve pursued, and even professional associations that youâre a member of. These details can help you to stand out from the crowd. If youâre applying for a job, be sure that these details are on your resume, too, since they speak to your qualifications and dedication to your career. Before you start using LinkedIn, make sure that youâre familiar with the dos and donâts of LinkedIn networking. For instance, you should only include links on your profile that direct to professional sites, and should make sure that all of those links are functioning. Choose to join some groups that you have a connection with or a genuine interest in, and when you do engage with others, use your experience or expertise to provide them with some value. When connecting with others on LinkedIn, donât connect with just anyone. Look for people you share interests with, who work in the same industry, or with whom you have some other connection. Then, craft a personalized invitation to connect with a short message highlighting what you have in common and why you would like to connect. Using social media sites like LinkedIn for networking can be particularly helpful when youâre an introvert. By removing the face-to-face element from networking, you can use social media to establish connections with others without the pressure of in-person interaction. Engaging with others can be draining, but framing your networking as spending 10 minutes on LinkedIn each day is a much easier task to manage. Use Written Outreach LinkedIn and social media sites will only go so far, and at some point youâll probably need to make a connection outside of a social media site. When you do need to reach out, consider using written outreach to make that initial connection. When you can write an email, a letter, or a postcard, you have time to plan out your thoughts and it doesnât feel as demanding as interacting with someone in person. Plus, you can feel more confident, knowing that youâve carefully phrased your words. If youâre reaching out to new connections by email, getting your email opened and read can be a challenge. Write a concise subject line, since many devices cut subject lines off after five words. Avoid using all caps in the subject line, and if a mutual connection has recommended that you reach out, mention that early on in the email. Most importantly, write a personalized message to the recipient. Donât Be Afraid to Follow Up As an introvert, youâre probably more sensitive to the effects that requests and communications can have on a person. This may make you leery of following up with your connections after you send an initial email, or if youâre trying to get that connection to take some sort of action, such as to review your resume. This is one change that you can make as an introvert to improve your networking. Realize that following up is standard and even to be expected in the professional world. If you havenât heard back after sending an initial email or making a phone call, itâs entirely possible that the person youâre contacting is so busy theyâve simply overlooked or forgotten the request. A follow-up a week or two after your initial contact is perfectly acceptable, and it may just generate the response you were looking for. Rely on Existing Networks, Too While itâs always important to build and expand your networks, donât forget about the importance of your existing networks and connections. An existing network might hold the key to helping you transition professionally while still employed, or that network might have a connection who could be invaluable as you start a new business or project. In fact, a survey that LinkedIn helped to create revealed that 85% of job-seekers found their new careers through networking. Your existing network may consist of the students you attended college with, your colleagues at your past and present jobs, and the connections youâve made on social media or through professional organizations. Itâs important to cultivate these networks and to understand the universal laws of networking. While you may want to network because it will benefit you, remember that the connections in your network should also benefit from the experience, too. Look for opportunities to connect people in your network with other people or resources that could help them. Think about how you can offer them value, and be interested in their lives and professions. Networking takes time, so do this in moderation as you can manage, but remember that by investing in your network, you may be developing connections that can be valuable to you in the future, too. If you do end up meeting with a contact for coffee or find yourself at a conference, remember that you donât have to write off in-person networking, too. Instead, perfect your networking skills as an introvert. Practice ahead of time, write down some questions, and remember that no one else is thinking about how shy you may be at an event, since theyâll be focusing on themselves. Networking as an introvert may require some modification and creativity, but it can absolutely be done. With effective marketing, you can establish valuable connections that may open up future opportunities.
