Freshman Year Survival Tips

Freshman Year Survival Tips Goodbye, middle school; hello, high school! The adventure that is secondary education certainly comes with much excitement and trepidation.Eileen Huntington ofHuntington Learning Center says that while starting high school is a big change, there are many things parents can do to help their teens make a successful transition. This is a time when children become young adults and the school experience reflects that, she says. Freshman year sets the stage, so its important that parents help their children get off on the right foot. Here are several tips to help your teen ease into freshman year successfully and lay the foundation for a great high school experience: Commit to good organization. If your teen has previously struggled to stay organized, now is the time to get more serious about this essential skill. Set up routines at home like five-minute sessions at the beginning and ending of homework time to neaten the workspace, organize the backpack and get mentally prepared for the next day. Encourage your child to embrace tools like a planner or homework app, and consider color-coded folders or notebooks for each subject to minimize time spent finding notes and important papers. Talk about grades. Grades always matter, but in high school they are especially important. This is because students immediately start building their cumulative GPA, which is one of the top factors college admissions officers consider when evaluating applicants. Talk with your teen about why poor decisions lead to poor grades, which are harder to recover from when college is on the horizon in just a few years. Practice self-advocacy. On that note, because grades have a lasting impact in high school, its critical that your teen gets help as soon as he or she encounters trouble in a class. Set the expectation this year that its time for your teen to take ownership of the academic experience, which starts with making school the top priority, keeping up with homework and studying, and asking the teacher for help when he or she is confused or struggling to keep up. Take control of time management. High school is a whole new ballgame with multiple classes, different teacher expectations, extracurricular activities and more. Encourage your teen to strive for balance by scheduling absolutely everything, keeping on top of the daily to-do list and knowing his or her limits. The planner should become your teens best friendencourage him or her to put all test, homework and other important dates on the calendar and plan out time for the most essential tasks every day. Last but not least,Huntington reminds parents that keeping open lines of communication with their teens is essential. Its so important to share with new high school students that theres nothing to be ashamed of if challenges arise this year or anytime throughout high school, she says. Let your teen know that youre always there for support, no matter what. Having a solid family support system plus a positive outlook will help your teen survive and thrive as a freshman and for the rest of high school.

What Defines a Modern Library

What Defines a Modern Library If it was allowed to drink tea and wrap myself in a blanket in the library I would definitely live there! Do you like to visit libraries and get new ideas? I hope so, I definitely do! But do we know a lot about them? Is modern library the same as the first library in the world?   The first libraries consisted of archives of the earliest form of writingâ€"the clay tablets discovered in Sumer, some dating back to 2600 BC. Private or personal libraries consisted of written books appeared in classical Greece in the 5th century BC. It is obviously that today library is not the same thing as it was many years ago.  Today we can find there much more then just usual paper books. Modern libraries are  more than just a  quiet studying space  for students. Some of them offer us different workshops and courses outside of formal, graded coursework, research materials.  Today, libraries are incubators for innovation, the great forums of modern times, where great minds congregate to learn and discover. They help to find many interesting friends and start to think outside the box. Today, we have not just private libraries that are open just for kings and queens â€" now there are  public,  budgetary,  municipal, personal (family)  and  training  libraries. Can you believe it? What a great variety! My family, for example, has great personal library, it consist of many old and modern books. I have not read all of them yet, but I will. Also, I visit public library twice a week. How often do you visit your local public library? Jorge Luis Borges, famous   Argentine writer, once said: I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library. There are many people in the world that like going to the libraries. Children, teenagers, adults and pensioners, poor and rich people, well-educated people and people without any education â€" different people enjoy using libraries!  Why? Well, its probably the best place to study or work in quiet and comfortable atmosphere, surf the internet, read unusual, uncommon and very old books, enjoy spending time on cool workshops and courses.  As  one famous  Russian historian and literary critic, teacher  and humanist Dmitry Likhachev said: If as a result of any disaster all centers of education and culture disappeared from the earth and the world had nothing but libraries  the world and people still would be able to revive. Library is a center of culture,  information and ideas. Modern libraries  mean a lot for humanity and even if they become more and more computerized and virtual, they are still unbelievably helpful, useful and important. And, of course,  we remember that libraries are very important and useful place  for tutors and their students. It is so comfortable for all of us to study in  neutral  place  that can offer us free wi-fi, computers, great diverse books and other services.

6 Reasons Learning to Speak Another Foreign Language Is Easier Than the First

6 Reasons Learning to Speak Another Foreign Language Is Easier Than the First 6 Reasons Learning to Speak Another Foreign Language Is Easier Than the First If youve learned to speak  one foreign language, you know that learning a language is not a quick, easy feat. It requires time, perseverance and lots of work.But you also know that learning a language is rewarding,  useful  and fun.What you may not know is that learning a second foreign language is not as hard as learning the first foreign language.Here are six reasons why. 6 Reasons Learning to Speak Another Foreign Language Is Easier Than the First1. You have the confidence to do it.Remember how scary it was to speak a foreign language for the first time? Your voice probably shook, and you felt like climbing into a hole and never coming out.But you did it anyway!  With practice, you learned it was okay to make mistakes, and you gained confidence in your abilities.When you study a second foreign language, you can put this confidence to use. You know its not the end of the world if you make a mistake. You know its okay to make a fool of yourself sometimes. And you know that the mor e you  practice speaking, the better you will become.Being confident enough  to start speaking right awayâ€"even when you only know a handful of words in a new languageâ€"is a huge advantage and will lead to fast progress in your second foreign language. The more you speak, the better you will become at speaking, and this is the only way to achieve  true communicative ability.But you already know this from your first language, which is why the second will be easier.2. Your mind is wired for the flexibility to speak multiple languages.Because  you already know one foreign language, you are better prepared to learn another.Research shows that learning a new language changes the networks in your brain. This has many advantages, including  improved brain health.It also means that you pre-developed some of the networks necessary to learn a  second foreign language. This may be why many  learners reference a foreign languageâ€"not their native languageâ€"when studying a second (or third!) language. Instead of translating new words to  your native language, you can use  your knowledge of another foreign language and build on existing brain networks in a way you werent able to do in the past.Just think about the many ways  youve grown accustomed to using your brain when you speak a foreign language:Formulating sentences using a different grammar structure.  No matter what languages you speak, youve undoubtedly learned to use a different grammar structure. This familiarity and flexibility with structure will help you as you learn a new language, even if its grammar structure is unrelated to any other language you know.Thinking of ways to express yourself when you  dont  know a particular word. Anyone who has studied a foreign language has learned to talk around an idea when they dont know the vocabulary words to express it directly. For example, you might call a wallet a thing you keep your money in.  It takes flexibility to be comfortable using language like this, and you undoubtedly already have  this skill.Listening to and processing rapid speech.  You have grown accustomed to listening to native speakers talk very quickly and have learned to pick out words you know, as well as identify words you may not be familiar with so that you can ask about or look them  up later.As you can see, your brain is already programmed to use important  skills. Transferring them to a new language will not be as difficult as learning them from scratch.3. Youve developed a study method that works.Dont  reinvent the wheel. Save time and speed up your learning by  using the study methods that worked best  when you learned your first foreign language.Take a moment to think about the study methods youve used. Do some brainstorming on  the topics below to help you identify the best methods to use as you study a new language:Think about  the schedules and methods that worked best for you in the past.Did you study every day or once every week? Did you study during  your coffee breaks or daily commute? Did you learn through entertainment like movies  and music? Did  you take an online language course?Write down whatever worked best for you and plan to use these methods as you learn a new foreign language.Identify methods that did not work well.Did you try to look up entire sentences  during real-time conversations,  only to find that it was easier without a pocket dictionary? Did you cram the day before a test?Its okay if a method that works for someone else doesnt work for you. Whats important is that you identify which methods arent worth wasting your time on.Look for  new ways of learning.Are there study methods you wanted to try but didnt have a chance to? Are there new opportunities that did not exist when you were learning your first foreign language? Consider giving new methods a try. These might  include making  use of technology, immersing yourself without leaving home or  using  sentence mining.One awesome new technology that wasnt around before is FluentU.  FluentU takes real-world videosâ€"like music videos, movie trailers, news and inspiring talksâ€"and turns them into personalized language learning lessons.Start using FluentU on the website  with your computer or tablet  or, better yet,  download the FluentU app from  the  iTunes  or  Google Play  store.4. You know your grammar.When you studied your first foreign language, perhaps your eyes glazed over at the mention of  dative case  or matching articles  to noun genders.Grammar is difficult, and people  who  havent studied a foreign language  may not be familiar with grammar concepts  in their own language.Youve already done the heavy lifting to learn many grammar terms and concepts. When you study a second foreign language, you can skip ahead to learning how to use new grammar structures, rather than learning what those structures are in the first place.As you start to learn a new language, take a moment to think about grammar. Review the grammar concepts youve already learned. Look at grammar books and familiarize yourself with common grammar structures  in your native and first foreign language. Understanding grammar can help a lot as you begin to study a new language, even if the grammar rules are entirely different from what you have known before.5. Youre connected to the polyglot world.Youve probably made a lot of friends who speak foreign languages. Polyglots  seem to come together, even when they dont speak the same language.Knowing other polyglots can be helpful as you begin  learning a second foreign language. Talk with your friends, and see if they can help you in your pursuit. Things to discuss include:Do they know anyone who speaks the language you want to learn? Perhaps you can find a conversation partner to practice with.Techniques or study methods theyve used to learn different languages.Study resources they have used. Your friends might be able to recommend  new  dictionaries, courses or  textbooks.Ways to stay motivated. Your friends know how hard it is to learn a new language. Ask them to encourage you and check on your progress regularly.6. You can learn fast if you study a language that is closely related to your first foreign language.Learning Italian will be easier if you speak Spanish, just as learning Czech will be easier if you already know Russian. These languages are in the same branches of the same  language families, which means they share many characteristics.The closer two languages  are related, the more vocabulary and grammar they share. Naturally, this means that you can learn a closely related language faster than an unrelated language.  This is because:Some words may be identical in closely related languages. The word book is libro in both Spanish and Italian.Other words may be very similar. Its easier to recognize and memorize words that are similar to words you already know. For example, the word book in Russian is kniga and in Czech,  kniha.Grammar structures are likely to be   similar in  related languages. Although there may be different rules, the underlying structure will probably be similar.  This means you dont need to learn new grammatical concepts, just new formulas.Your comprehension of a  related language is likely to be very high, even if you have trouble speaking it. You will be able to understand the written word and comprehend the spoken word relatively quickly. You may also be able to make yourself understood to native speakers, even if you dont use  exactly the right words. This can speed up your progress and give you the motivation to keep studying.In some cases, even unrelated languages may  share many features. Languages that are spoken in the same region or share a long history of interconnection may share vocabulary words, even if the grammar and structure of the languages is extremely different.Turkish and Arabic are a prime example of this. These language are in different language families, but share a related history due to the infl uence of Islam. If you know one of these languages, you will discover that some  words (mostly derived from Arabic) are the same or similar in  both  languages.Its possible that even if a particular word is no longer commonly used, a native speaker who is familiar with literary or historical versions of the language may understand youâ€"think looking glass instead of mirror or bequeath instead of give.Whether you are studying related or unrelated languages, you will likely find that learning a second foreign language is much easier than learning the first.It may be frustrating at times, but if you make use of the skills you have already developed, it can be easier than you might anticipateâ€"not to mention lots of fun!Katherine Kostiuk is a freelance writer with  professional  experience in international education and English teaching. She has lived in four foreign countries and studied five different foreign languages.

7 Reasons to Order Takeout Instead of Cooking Tonight

7 Reasons to Order Takeout Instead of Cooking Tonight pixabay.com 1. Enjoy the comfort of your home The absolute worst thing is coming home to my very happy puppy and then having to leave him again. Sometimes its errands, sometimes its dinner with friends, sometimes its back to work. I know he hates it when I only come home for his pee breaks. When its nighttime, I just want to hang out with him. Running to get takeout down the street doesnt even make me feel guilty. And I get to come back and eat it on the couch with my absolute best friend while I watch my favorite nightly shows. Its quick, easy, and worth it. 2. Opportunity cost Do you have things left on your to-do list? Are you in the middle of laundry and cleaning, and reorganizing? Grabbing takeout or having food delivered is a lot faster than having to come up with something to cook. The 45 minutes youll spend preparing and cooking a meal for one is  nothing  compared to the 10 minutes itll take to grab some takeout. Think about what youre giving up in order to cook some food. Think about all the time you could have to yourself to get the things done that you  need to. Yeah, go get some takeout. 3. Easy cleanup Just throw it out! Its way easier to clean up after a takeout run than all those pots and pans youll be stuck scrubbing if you decided to cook tonight. Styrofoam and plastic utensils: easy peasy cleanup, my friend. 4. Multiple dinners I am rarely able to finish an entire entree from a restaurant. And if youre concerned about calorie counting and watching your weight, you should know that a typical American portion is way out of whack with what you  should  be eating. If you get takeout tonight, chances are you can package it up for lunch or dinner tomorrow. Look at that. Two birds. One stone. 5. Itll taste like heaven Most of the time, when I cook, it never comes out tasting like I want it to taste. But when I go get my favorite takeout, I can count on it being just as delicious as the time before. I never have to add extra seasoning and its always grilled to perfection. Getting takeout is worth it to just not have to worry about the final product after 45 minutes of hoping it tastes okay. And then when youre finally done cooking (after 45 minutes) and it  doesnt  taste good, thats when it stinks that you didnt just go get takeout in the first place. Save yourself now. 6. Convenience, convenience, convenience Call it in on your way out the door from work. Pick it up before you get home or have it delivered. Walk in the door with delicious smelling food already ready to be consumed. Its the equivalent of marrying someone who strongly believes dinner should be on the table already when you come in every day. 7. Youll be glad you did it When youre kicked back and relaxing on your couch with some of your favorite takeout, youll be glad you took my advice. Youll be comfortable in your own home, with the food from the take out gods in front of you. What more could you ask for?
