Holiday Survival Guide 7 Tips to Keep You From Turning Into a Grinch - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Holiday Survival Guide 7 Tips to Keep You From Turning Into a Grinch - Introvert Whisperer Holiday Survival Guide: 7 Tips to Keep You From Turning Into a Grinch Yesterday I had an introvert tell me about a party some long-time friends were holding. She didn’t want to go to it. In fact, she was dreading it and also dreading the prospects of saying “no.” I think she was holding out for a good case of the bubonic plague. Does this sound like you? Rather than avoiding the various social gatherings this month, try some of these ideas. Think of this as your very own holiday survival guide: 1. Focus On the Positive No matter if it’s a work holiday party or your neighborhood bash, there has to be at least one positive thing you can think of. Maybe it’s getting to know someone better, good food or the new outfit you wanted to buy. You control how you think about these things; pick out something you like and make that your focus. (Like this thought? Tweet it!) 2. Think About Only One Person, Not the Whole Group Introverts can easily get overwhelmed by the thought of hanging out with a whole group of people they don’t know. Think about the one person you do want to spend time with. Maybe it is the work peer you used to love working with. It will give you a chance to reconnect with someone you like but may have lost contact with. 3. Don’t Try to Work the Room This isn’t who you are, so don’t even go there. 4. Give Yourself a Break Our energy gets used up quickly being around other people, so you should plan on retreating to a quiet space. Simply spending some time in your own thoughts and taking a breather can help you be engaged and positive throughout the remainder of the event. 5. Create Your Strategy One thing we introverts are great at is thinking and making plans. Think in advance about the parts you dislike of going to a holiday event. Then, think about ways you could improve your behavior or outlook. We are all different in the things we dread. Some people would simply just prefer to watch TV or read a book. If that’s the case, consider talking about your favorite TV programs or books. 6. Use the Event As an Experiment Take on the persona of Thomas Edison. He had 10,000 failed experiments, but he never thought of them as failures; he viewed them as opportunities to learn and improve. Figure out a couple of things you’d like to do differently and test them out. It won’t kill you, and it may just be the thing to turn around your view of these things. 7. Admit You’re a Stranger I recently tried something that worked extremely well. I approached a group and asked, “Can a new person in town join in?” Everyone gave me a hearty welcome and asked me all sorts of “new person” questions. I felt very warm and fuzzy as a result. You may never be totally in love with going to parties. I know I’m not. But I think you should aspire to enjoy yourself while you’re there. I think these suggestions can help you improve your outlook. Go to top What’s your go-to party survival tip? Share your thoughts in the comments!

Learning Training

Learning Training Learning: we all think we know what it is. But how does it work? What is training? Can we learn training, or even better train learning? In this post, well get to know a few learning methods and some exercises, which help improve the capacity for learning. By the way, the advice in this post applies to learners of all levels and ages. At AJ Tutoring, we find great success introducing new learners to core academic subjects like reading, writing and math as part of our K-8 academic tutoring process. We also help students develop key test-taking skills for their first encounters with standardized tests like the ISEE, SSAT, and HSPT. We build on these very same skills as we work with students in challenging high school academic subjects like history and physics, all the way through exams taken for college admissions such as the SAT and ACT, and beyond to graduate school admissions tests like the GRE! Although the specifics of the course or the exam often necessitate individualized coachi ng and a customized approach, the principles of learning remain the same. A lifelong commitment to reading and thinking critically, developing quantitative skills and engaging with challenging quantitative topics like economics: these are the principles that will allow you to lead a rich life and stay sharp intellectually.With that mind, here are some pointers to improve core aspects of the learning process.Taking NotesTaking notes means listening. Not only passive hearing, but a true listeningfollow the materials in your thoughts. Taking notes also means choosing: discerning between important, less or even not important informationHere are 10 tips for effective note taking:Use a lot of paper, write only on one side; use different sheets for overview mind maps and other notes.Listen closely and think actively along.To differentiate between important and unimportant material, watch out for the speaker’s signals (e.g. remarks, summing up a section as transition, emphasis).Only start writing once a “unit of meaning” is finished.Check continuously if you understand the connections and note and expand them separately in mind maps or structure diagrams.Write in an economical way: make only note of the essential.Use useful abbreviations, which are still understandable later.Don’t abbreviate names or unknown technical terms.If certain quote or literature references are important, make note of them especially thoroughly.Make note of your keywords in a way, that shows the connections and relations between the different pieces of information. Use arrows, boxes or emphasis with a highlighter.Active ReadingThink about the material and make your own pictures. Use associations and mental pictures. Draw the pictures, use colors. Write summaries, try mind mapping. Be playful with the material and experiment with it. Explore, what about it is especially fun for you?Finding ExamplesKnowledge should be made alive and should be committed to memory in a multi-layered way.Wi th the help of examples you can make even “sober” material tangible, simplify it and take it the essence from it. It means to learn in a playful manner, handsâ€"on, with your whole body and all your senses.Examples:Create little cards and make a memory game.Go for a walk, so that all your senses are involved.You learn better in combination with a movement and the material can be recalled with that movement.DrawingYes, drawing! Train the right hemisphere of your brain! It is well known that drawing and doodling activates our brain. Find opportunities to draw something, for instance while on a phone call. Testing New KnowledgeLearning always happens in an active way: Try to use your new knowledge everywhere. Everything in your surrounding works according to this principle. Applying your knowledge in a new situation is a rewarding feeling and can motivate you to learn even more!

Heart Math Tutoring The Formula for Classroom Success - Heart Math Tutoring

Heart Math Tutoring The Formula for Classroom Success - Heart Math Tutoring Heart Math Tutoring: The Formula for Classroom Success Heart Math Tutoring: The Formula for Classroom Success July 21, 2016 NC State Philanthropy Journal News Charlena Wynn By Emily Elliott A sixth-grade girl experiencing homelessness in Charlotte in 2009 remarked over dinner, “I swear, sometimes my school feels invisible.” Investigating further, I saw that less than half of the students were performing on grade level at the time in this child’s school. At the time, I was an investment banking analyst and soon became a volunteer tutor in this child’s school. Immediately I saw the tremendous impact on students’ skills and confidence when they are given one-on-one attention. Irritated upon learning that many students across the nation are progressing to subsequent grades without the necessary skills, and recognizing how different this practice was from my own upbringing and opportunities, I transitioned from finance into teaching Continue reading here:  http://pj.news.chass.ncsu.edu/2016/07/05/heart-math-tutoring-the-formula-for-classroom-success/.

San Diego`s Number One Attraction are its Universities

San Diego`s Number One Attraction are its Universities When you think of San Diego, CA what thoughts pop up in your mind? Perhaps it is SeaWorld amusement park, the San Diego Zoo or the USS Midway Museum and the Cabrillo National Monument for sure. But did premier education come to you mind as well? No, then read on and lean San Diego is home of the University of California, the  Thomas Jefferson School of Law and the distinguished Salk Institute for Biological studies. Yes, we all love the SeaWorld adventure park where we can enjoy the Shamu orca show or go with our kids on a Wild Arctic Ride and touch bottle nose dolphins.  Along a similar vein there is the San Diego Zoo.  For sure you remember the overhead gondola ride Skyfari  because its vintage construction together with the thought will it hold?  which is still vividly in your mind. When visiting San Diego, the dads among you would not pass up the chance to visit the USS Midway aircraft carrier which served the US Navy for  an unprecedented 47 years and is now a museum.  Seize the day tell your kids about US history from World War II over the Vietnam War to the first golf war in 1991 all events where the  USS Midway participated. One of my favorite history memorials is the Cabrillo National Monument. It commemorates the landing of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo at the San Diego Bay in 1542. This event marked the first time Europeans set foot on the West Coast of what later became the United States. Given these many San Diego attractions, it  probably surprises nobody that San Diego is one of the foremost cities of education. The 2012 National Collegiate Scouting Associations Power Rankings ranks UC San Diego 1st place among Division II colleges and 9th place  overall. Almost 90% of residents received a high school degree and more than 40% of the population received a bachelors degree. San Dieogo is home of ten universities, including University of California at San Diego (UCSD), California State University (CSU), California Western School of Law and Thomas Jefferson School of Law.   Furthermore, there are eight major colleges, such as Grossmont College and Southwestern College. The Salk Institute located in Dan Diegos La Jolla seaside quarter is one of the finest biological research institutes in the world.  Faculty like  Francis Crick (discoverer of the DNA) or neuroscientist Professor  Ramachandran have found a home at the Salk Institute. TutorZ offers tutoring in all of San Diego from Balboa Park down to Ocean Beach which includes high school level tutoring and to graduate studies. Should your daughter apply to one of Dan Diegos prestigious universities she might benefit from professional test preparation which ranges at TutorZ from SAT, ACT, GMAT  to  GRE  and  MCAT.

Orange County SAT Tutoring The SAT Writing and Language Test

Orange County SAT Tutoring The SAT Writing and Language Test Orange County Test Prep Tutor Tips: The SAT Writing and Language Test As students prepare to take the new SAT exam, they should focus heavily on the writing and language test. On this portion of the exam, students get to be editors and need to correct errors that have been made on purpose as part of passages that were written specifically for this exam. In a way, students get to be the teachers for this part of the test. Being able to edit the written word is an important skill students need to develop and use by the time they go to college. This will help students be able to demonstrate that they have the ability to proofread their work but also notice when others make errors. According to the College Board, the three main things test-takers need to do in this section include reading, identifying mistakes, and fixing those mistakes. https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat/inside-the-test/writing-language 1. Basic facts All of the questions on this portion of the SAT are multiple choice and based on the passage that’s given. No math is required on the writing and language test so students who are concerned about a weakness in that area need not be nervous here. Additionally, prior knowledge of a specific topic is not required to do well in this section. Students will be required to interpret charts and graphs as part of some of the passages. 2. What are students tested on? According to the College Board, students will be tested on their ability to improve how a passage develops an argument or presents knowledge. Plainly put, this means that students will have to identify a weakness in a sentence or passage and improve upon it. Students will also be tested on their ability to make a passage more concise or specific and improve upon syntax, style, and tone (READ: 5 Awesome SAT Apps). 3. What topics are covered? Students will read passages that test their ability to understand and interpret the topics of history, social science, and science. Although students don’t need specific prior knowledge of these topics, they will be required to analyze critically whats going on within the passage as well as improve upon any errors that are identified. Test-takers should focus more on being an excellent editor than being an expert in the field of history or science (READ: Irvine SAT Tutoring Tips: A Timeline to the New SAT in June). 4. Standard American English Students will also be tested on their knowledge of all sorts of different English conventions including the basic things that make a sentence or paragraph well written. They will need to focus on punctuation, such as correct usage of comma placement. They will also need to look at a parallel structure and subject-verb agreement and determine which of the provided answers offers the best solution. Additionally, students will need to demonstrate their knowledge of clauses and verb tense throughout a sentence. This portion covers the essential elements of Standard American English that will determine if a student can write correctly and appropriately at this stage of their education. In short Many students state that the writing and language test is one of the most difficult sections of the new SAT to master. Its a good idea for students to take a practice test or at least do a few sample questions before the actual exam. This way, students can identify their strengths and weaknesses and figure out how to eliminate incorrect answers. Students can also work with their study group or tutor to practice being an editor and proofreader for both their work and the work of others. https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sample-questions/writing-language Its never too late to book your Orange County SAT tutor from TutorNerds.
