Switching From Online Tutors to an Oracle Tutor

Switching From Online Tutors to an Oracle TutorThe main reason why I decided to switch from using online tutors, to using an Oracle tutor, was because of the incredible amount of time it took me to get to where I am now. Even though you can get an Oracle tutor to help you with virtually any language, my best results came from one on one tutoring. So let's take a look at what these tutors can do for you and how they are different from most other language learning methods out there.One of the biggest reasons why I switched from online tutorials was because of the fact that these tutorials just didn't give me the results I wanted. If you are trying to learn a new language, then your best bet is to get a tutor who can have you speaking the language in front of others who can help you understand.The main problem I had with online tutors is that they didn't give me the right amount of individual attention. They would usually see me as an occasional learner and they would ask me questions a bout how well I did at the exercises that I was doing. The problem is, when you don't want to be seen as an occasional learner, you have to be willing to put in the effort to improve every single time you go to school.The best way to ensure that I got the most out of the online courses is to find a good trainer. It doesn't matter if you are going to be taking an online course in a few weeks, or if you are taking one for the rest of your life. Either way, you need to find someone who is going to work with you, and make sure that you are getting proper attention on all aspects of your new language.The only way you can make sure that you are getting proper instruction from an Oracle tutor is by asking them questions. There isn't a better way to ensure that you are getting a fair shake than asking for an outline. Even if you are going to retake a course that is meant to last up to one year, the best way to make sure that you are getting your money's worth is to make sure that you know e xactly what you are getting.If you don't want to learn, then you need to find a good instructor who is going to help you learn. Whether it is going to be through online courses, audio programs, or even physical sessions, the goal is the same.The reason why I switched from using an Oracle tutor, to using an Oracle tutor, was to ensure that I was learning the best way possible. It isn't a question of whether you learn better, but rather whether you are being taught the best way possible.

The Dynamic Brain A Fresh Outlook on Learning Potential

The Dynamic Brain A Fresh Outlook on Learning Potential Improving Academic Performance The old adage “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks” has some interesting implications when applied to humans through the lens of something called neuroplasticity, which is essentially how malleable, dynamic and flexible the neurons (brain cells) in our brain are. This is directly related to the phenomenon of learning. Although, one must wonder when it comes to canines if sometimes the older dog truly can’t learn new tricks, or is simply just too old to care or try! For me, this raises a few questions: What is it about getting older that makes it harder for us to learn new things? Or is this just a thought put into our heads and are we perhaps not giving our magnificent brains enough credit? And what does this say about the period of time while we are young and supposedly able to “learn new tricks”? Why is it easier to learn when we are younger? Every species must learn certain skills to adapt and survive, and if put in the position where an organism, dog or human, must learn a certain skill to survive then it’s either adapt or perish, regardless of age or species. Human beings have developed a biosphere where they are no longer at threat to be randomly attacked and eaten by a saber tooth tiger or stomped on by a wooly mammoth, thus, we have the option to engage in higher learning. Research shows that the structures of our neurons are not static and stationary at any age. As we practice and refine our skills (be they related to math, languages, art, or athletics) our brains literally change inside of our heads. It is a dynamic system and the spiderweb like connection of neurons with their axons and dendrites are always in constant flux and moving. Such dynamic flexibility lasts well into the late stages of adulthood. Increased flexibility in the structure and scaffolding of our brain means higher potential to integrate new information and keep learning! In fact, Carol Dweck, a Psychologist at Stanford University and author of Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, has developed a theory called the Growth Mindset. She has shown that when people are simply educated about how the brain changes over time as you learn, as they begin to believe that the brain is like a muscle that grows with use, they begin to learn faster and perform better in school â€" without any other intervention (i.e., they don't receive additional tutoring, etc.). Why does this happen? It probably happens because when you believe that your brain can expand and acquire new knowledge, vs. believing your IQ and general ability to do well in school are fundamentally fixed at birth (which Dweck calls the “fixed mindset”), you engage with material in your classes in a new way. You proactively engage in an effort to expand your intelligence. This, then, leads to actual learning and the creation of new neural connections deep inside your brain. Thus, there’s hope yet for both young and old in having the capacity to keep learning new things so long as we take advantage of how beautifully fluid and dynamic the brain stays well into adulthood. Let’s take a closer look at how this actually happens… It is said that memory, the hallmark of learning, is the product of information storage through the development and preservation of an intricate distribution of brain cell connections (called a “synaptic trace”) that become imprinted through experiences (Ajemian et al., 2013). It is also said that these traces become further reinforced and stabilized through repetitive stimulation, ultimately leading to that response becoming the default pathway in the brain. Essentially, habits are hard to break. My Dad would always tell me that habits are hard to break because if you take away the “h” you’re left with “a bit” and if you took away the “a” you would still have a “bit” and finally, when you take away the “b” and you’re still left with “it”! But fear not, modern science has proposed progressive new schemas and theories that dispute the idea that once these connections between our brain cells are put into place, they become somewhat “cemented” there, thus leaving us victim to our habits. New research puts the power and the responsibility back into our hands! The new school of thought states that these connections between our brain cells are non-stationary, fluctuating arrangements that systematically produce responses or outputs that would be the same as the fixed system design (the cemented design). What does this mean? Well, first of all, it means that even though our intricate connection of brain cells are constantly moving around up there, we still get the right information to where it needs to go! That much is great news. But the better news is because they are constantly moving, they are easier to restructure and reprogram so we can build new habits, change old ones and acquire new skills! As I had mentioned, there exists a particularly sensitive period in humans as well as other species that shows a far more remarkable potential for plasticity relative to other stages in their life. This is defined as the imprinting period or the “critical period”. It is during this period that the brain rapidly process and adapts to infinite dimensions of new sensory stimuli, all of which essentially have “free range” to stimulate and imprint the vast number of highly sensitive neurons in an offspring’s brain. At this time the offspring mimics the behavior of their parents and develops crucial skills needed for interspecies communication and survival. For example, children have the remarkable ability to learn a multitude of languages. In all my years tutoring it still amazes me when I meet children that know four, five, even six languages! While adults can of course learn new languages, it tends to be much more difficult for them to do so. Thus, it is crucial during this time of high plasticity to keep children engaged and learning as to take advantage of these neurological events. Toddler or doctor, third-grader or aerospace engineers, we all have the ability to harness the plastic potential of our own brains. We have been in more control than we once thought, over the learning capacity of our own brains. The dynamical systems theory (constantly moving brain cells and their connections) provides much hope in the arena of neurodegenerative disorders as well such as Autism Spectrum Disorder. So keep your brain stimulated! About the Author Gaurav Dubey is a biology, chemistry, mathematics, and ACT/SAT tutor from Naperville, IL who has worked with MyGuru for several years.

5 Types of Jobs That College Students Really Want

5 Types of Jobs That College Students Really Want Pixabay.com 1. Administrative Assistant Median Hourly Pay: $12.34 Working as an administrative assistant for a company you’re interested in can be a great way to break into the field. You get to meet virtually everyone working at the company (especially if it’s a smaller company). This is a good chance to make connections in your work field and start to learn the ins and outs of the business. Hands-on experience will also give you an edge when and if you’re ready to move up the ladder and try for a higher-up position within the business. Another good thing is that many places offer this job as a part-time position, which means it won’t eat away at your study and class time. Another perk: You will most likely have your own desk! 2. Restaurant Worker (Host/Hostess, Waiter/Waitress, Cook, etc.) Median Hourly Pay: $9.09 Working at a restaurant gives you a flexible schedule and the chance to work for tips. Tips often outweigh your paycheck, especially if you do a great job and you don’t have to split your tips with the rest of your coworkers that night. If you’re planning on living off of your tips, I would advise asking a few questions to the hiring manager or, if you know someone working for the restaurant that you’re planning to apply to, asking that person. Ask what their policy on tips is and if you get to keep the tips that you earn from a table or if you’re expected to turn in your tips to your boss so that they can later be split amongst you and your coworkers. Then decide if you’re okay with splitting the tip. Besides pay and the flexible hours, you’ll get a chance to meet many new faces and bring a little happiness into the lives of the people that walk into your restaurant. If you’re passionate about the food industry, this could be a great job for you. 3. Lyft Driver Median Hourly Pay: Up to $35/hr, according to the  Lyft website Being able to pick and choose when and where you work sounds like a pretty good time, doesn’t it? Well, this can be made possible for you if you choose to sign up and join the thousands of other people that made the choice to become a Lyft driver. To become a Lyft driver, all youll need to do is have a decent vehicle in your possession (one that you dont mind putting a lot of miles on). Then all you have to do is go to their website and sign up. This is another job that will work well with your class schedule. You can choose to work nights if you take classes during the day or you can choose to work during the day if your class schedule has you on campus at night. With Lyft, any tip that you earn from your passengers goes directly to you and only you. That means a few extra bucks in your pocket. And as any college student knows, a few extra bucks can be made to go a long way. 4. Private Tutor Median Hourly Pay: $18.02 As a private tutor, you will be allowed a lot of freedom. You are free to choose which subject youll be specializing in and advertise how much money you will be willing to work for per hour in your chosen area. The number of hours that youre willing to work during a single tutoring session is up to you. Many students get their start being a tutor by working for a local school or even for a family member or friend. Word-of-mouth will get your services known by more people. In this way, you are going to be able to build up your list of clients over time. Once you get a good amount of clients, you can figure out a weekly schedule that works with classes. Being a tutor is a rewarding job. Youre going to help students that are struggling in certain subjects break past their barriers and push forward in school. Pixabay.com 5. Freelance Writer Median Hourly Pay: $24.25 If you love to write and to research, then you might consider looking into freelance writing. As a freelance writer, you get paid to write up knowledgeable, well-written articles for whoever hires you. For lovers of words, this kind of job could be a dream come true. You can work from home, develop your skills as a writer, and gain some experience. There are a number of blogging websites you can visit to get your start in freelance work. A good place to begin your hunt for gigs would be the Upwork.com website. (All median hourly pay numbers were taken from Payscale.com)

Calculus Help - The Best Way to Learn Calculus

Calculus Help - The Best Way to Learn CalculusOne of the best ways to learn Calculus in a fun and interactive way is to obtain Calculus Help. The assistance and resources on offer will help you understand a complex subject in a more manageable manner. You can learn at your own pace, making sure that you do not overload yourself with information.As in any problem, one has to approach the problem of solving it as a task rather than an idea. A great way to ease the pressure is to work at a problem that you know is not too difficult. You might also find a better solution to a problem if you did not give it too much thought beforehand.Use terms that you are familiar with when you are learning something like calculus. Most textbooks are written in technical terms and you should be able to read them well enough. For example, in mathematical expressions, two numbers mean different things when written with a sign and a zero, as they would if they were not reversed. In other words, two numbers could have a common denominator, but one of them has the sign of either of the other numbers.Take your time when learning a problem. If you try to get ahead of yourself, you might go off track and be unable to find the solution you were looking for.Pick the topics you are most interested in and start studying the math equations that you find the most difficult. It is important to understand how a problem is solved so that you can put it into practice. Start by solving a problem that is easy and then take on more difficult ones as you gain expertise.Do not make the mistake of thinking that learning math means memorizing formulas. Calculus Help and algebra help have the tools necessary to help you understand math and help you apply what you have learned.All of this information can help you learn to think of problems as fun and not as a chore. This way, you can find yourself progressing in the realm of the highest level of algebra knowledge. When you know that algebra can be fun, you know that you are on the road to learning mathematics in a more enjoyable way.

What Is a Chain Reaction in Chemistry?

What Is a Chain Reaction in Chemistry?What is a chain reaction in chemistry? A chain reaction is an evolutionary process that is the result of chemical reactions which occur continuously, which help to break down substances and elements. However, a chain reaction in chemistry is often used in academic circles to explain the process that occurs in the manufacture of certain substances.Chemicals, organic compounds and organic solvents (often referred to as hydroxyl radicals) are just a few examples of organic compounds that occur on their own. But often times when we see a chemical compound, for example, benzene, we think of it occurring naturally. However, benzene itself, is a compound consisting of two atoms each of oxygen and hydrogen and is also known as chloroform. The name 'chloroform' is from the fact that chloroform acts as a gas when it comes into contact with air.It is believed that a chain reaction can take place through a combination of molecules in a certain combination. H owever, when it comes to a chain reaction in chemistry, each molecule must come into contact with another molecule in order for the two molecules to combine into one molecule. A chain reaction in chemistry can be described by the basic structure of the chemical equation, where a particular group of atoms all combine with another particular group of atoms to create a new compound.An example of a compound with the same chemical formula but different atom grouping can be given. For example, sulfur has three atoms and nitrogen one atom, while carbon is made up of one atom and oxygen has two atoms. We can say that carbon is a compound consisting of three atoms and nitrogen of one atom.So what is a chain reaction in chemistry? At first glance, it might seem that when two atoms combine together, they will create a compound; however, the question is: how long does this reaction take? How long does it take for a molecule to pass through each stage in a chemical reaction before the next stage begins?Generally speaking, the chemical reaction that we use to breakdown molecules takes place in a reaction medium. The reaction medium is what allows the reactions to happen, as it can carry out the chemical reaction without any external input or waste products.In most cases, the reaction medium consists of a gel, which contains chemicals that react to make an intermediate compound that will either complete the chemical reaction or be converted into a waste product. This intermediary compound is known as a product. There are many types of chemical reactions in which products will either complete the chemical reaction or be converted into waste products. For example, in the treatment of various drugs, the reaction of drugs with various enzymes in the human body may be used to generate useful drugs.
