June Language Challenge Update Ivans Update

June Language Challenge Update Ivans Update The italki June 2015 language challenge has not gone smoothly for me, and that in itself has taught me a great deal about achieving my goals and learning a language. It was an exciting, difficult, but ultimately rewarding journey. There are many things that I have re-asserted to myself throughout the process of the challenge: taking notes, importance of review, fundamental advantages of speaking with a person to learn language. Still, I want to make the emphasis on sharing some of the more unusual insights from the experience: Ivan who is on our #marketing #team is struggling taking the #languagechallenge #learningchinese. His goal was to learn #HSK level 4 #chinese and hes almost there! #worklifebalance #scheduling #pressure #goalsetting A photo posted by Italki (@italki) on Jun 28, 2015 at 11:45pm PDT Lesson 1: My main struggle was caused by poorly picking my goal The way I formulated my goal was simple: cover HSK 4 Level vocabulary (This is somewhere around C1 level, and combined with the previous levels of the test covers approximately 1200 Chinese words). Since starting the challenge I have realized that this was definitely too ambitious. What’s worse, I have procrastinated for two weeks before finally starting classes. I have managed to compress my language challenge into a 2-week battery of lessons with several teachers. The goal wasn’t granular enough. I was lazy, and decided to attach my goal to a testable standard. Though, I imagine that instinctual decision was not a bad one, it did lull me into a false sense of security. I didn’t break my goal down into quantifiable pieces. What’s worse, I didn’t design my goal give me any feedback of my progress. By this I mean that my goal didn’t give me any feedback about my performance. In the future, I plan to make smaller sub-goals. I also plan to phrase the goals in terms of proving an ability instead of consuming material: “Discuss social change in context of education using a set list of vocabulary” “Be able to read through this passage naturally with correct tones” “Be able to provide three example sentences for each of the vocabulary words in today’s vocabulary set” Lesson 2:  â€œLe mieux est l’ennemi du bien” There seems to be a natural tendency in us to avoid action, when the embarrassment of being unprepared is expected. I imagined myself striving into the challenge in control, relaxed, confident, and breezing through the month. A week passed, and I haven’t scheduled any lessons. Every day something seemed to come up, I haven’t looked at the vocabulary independently, I haven’t made the right flash cards, I haven’t reviewed the Anki deck, and ultimately, I had 3 more weeks to make sure that I will do my studying according to the perception of a well-planned experience in my head. The second week passed with touches of panic, though I still held onto my mental model of how I will study language. By the time I took my first lesson, this fantasy has been shattered and evaporated. I realized that I would have to take lessons almost daily to complete the challenge. I went on a lesson-requesting binge, requesting lessons with teachers primarily based on their time availability and willingness to teach lessons specialized for HSK. I have wound up with a schedule that had me take a class almost daily, with a team of teachers and the rest of my week booked. There was no going back, I was going to finish the challenge, even if it meant I would drag myself through the hours kicking and screaming. I took my first lesson, worked through some vocabulary with my teacher, some basic conversation (the necessary “Who are you and where are you from?”) and I started feeling good about the class. Half an hour into actually doing the challenge, my level of panic and anxiety subsided, and then disappeared. Somehow in the process of imagining doing the challenge I had managed to create a mental model that actually got in my way of actually learning. Over the course of two weeks I had reinforced that feeling. Lack of preparation, not being mentally in the mind-set to study, not finding the time to do the review beforehand all these are barriers to entry, not reasons not to attend the class. Once I started actually doing the work, speaking with the teacher and taking notes, I have noticed not only the improvement in my feelings about the learning process, I started noticing progress in my ability to recall the vocabulary, use it topically, and actually finding it easier to engage in Chinese conversation outside of the study sessions, spontaneously. I think this is a great take-away to find in this challenge: Having a perfect lesson is less important than just having lessons, consistently, without abandoning the process or or letting self-doubt creep in. Lesson 3: Try different teachers I had scheduled many classes, primarily orienting myself towards the pace of lesson-taking rather than trying to concentrate on any specific facet of content. This turned out to be a great idea. My assumption has always been that sticking with the same teacher will limit my exposure to variety of styles, or even individual peculiarities of pronunciation. Still, I noticed a bit of psychological friction when scheduling lessons with multiple teachers. This seemed uncomfortable primarily because I could already feel the awkwardness of speaking with a stranger for the first time. I had to distance myself from the process and followed a simple algorithm: Pick the time, filter by price and willingness to teach HSK, send lesson request, schedule the next class. Quickly my schedule filled up and I was on-track to finish the challenge. Whatever awkwardness I felt about meeting half a dozen new teachers in the span of two weeks I had made a commitment to it, which seemed to help somehow. After finishing hour 4 or 5, I realized how helpful it is to have multiple teachers in a short period of time. Each one had a different approach, and a natural propensity to concentrate on a specific aspect. After a particularly intense hour concentrating on tones, I realized how useful it is to have a team of teachers, rather than picking one and sticking to them only. I’ve realized that I want to take more classes with each one of the teachers I’ve tried, and I’m designing my future class schedule with purpose: reading a grammar with one teacher, casual conversation and organic use of vocabulary with another, intensive tones and pronunciation practice with a third. I can’t recommend trying this enough, as it seems like such a counterintuitive approach. So, did I reach my goal? No, I wouldn’t say that I have, and that is actually a good thing. I have learned to create a plan better, and opened myself up to more diverse experiences in terms of language-learning. I’ve realized the importance of making achievable, feedback-oriented goals, which is crucial if I plan to stay motivated in my language-learning. Above all, though, I have discovered several great teachers that can help me practice specific skills in my quest not just to pass a test, but to gain a comprehensive and deep understanding of Mandarin.

Irvine PSAT Tutoring Dont Stress About the PSAT - TutorNerds

Irvine PSAT Tutoring Dont Stress About the PSAT - TutorNerds Tips from an Irvine PSAT Tutor: Don’t Stress About the PSAT Tips from an Irvine PSAT Tutor: Don’t Stress About the PSAT If you are considering taking (or have already taken) the PSAT, you might be wondering how important the test and your scores on it are. PSAT stands simply for “Preliminary SAT,” so its predominant purpose is to be an introduction to the standardized testing style of the SAT. The PSAT is a full-length, proctored, standardized test administered by College Board (the same group that makes the SAT). As such, it’s a good early simulation of the conditions and pacing that you can expect on the SAT book your private Orange County PSAT tutor today. That being said, I will take a somewhat controversial opinion in stating that the PSAT is not very important or significant for students. You should not worry and stress about getting a good PSAT score or not. You don’t need to study specifically for the PSAT. You also do not have to seek out and pay to take the PSAT if your school is not giving it to you for free (or requiring it). Here’s why: 1. PSAT Scores Do Not Improve SAT Scores It is relatively well-known that students who take the PSAT tend to have improved scores on the regular SAT when compared to students who never took the PSAT. This is one reason why many schools offer the PSAT for free or require it to be taken â€" they believe it will boost their students’ eventual SAT numbers a year or two later. However, the exact same effect is seen when taking any official SAT practice test: the first test you get a lower score, then the next test (even if it’s taken only a few days later) your score “magically” jumps up by 100 points or more. This is simply because students are not used to this type of test until they try it. In the first practice test they learn about the question types, they read the instructions, they get an idea of how fast they need to go, etc. If you have never taken a practice test, then the PSAT will have this same effect for you. However, a practice test is just fine, and arguably better since you will have the test to go over and review what you got wrong. There’s nothing intrinsically special about the PSAT test itself that brings your scores up. It’s just practice. 2. The National Merit Scholarships Aren’t as Common as You Think A very common reason given for taking the PSAT is the opportunity to win a national merit scholarship for your score. These scholarships are given to students who score particularly well on the test, and it is a reason that many people give for taking the test. While I do agree that every opportunity to earn potential scholarship money is valuable, the National Merit Scholarships tend to be blown out of proportion for how available they are. Using the official 2017-2018 annual report, we can find that 1.6 million students took “eligible” PSAT exams that year. Of those students, about 2% got a nice “good job” certificate for their high scores. No scholarships for them. Only 0.5% of students earned a scholarship for their score. Many blogs say you need to take the PSAT to potentially be a merit scholar, but students should recognize that only about 1 in 200 test takers earn one. 3. The PSAT Is Not the Best Practice The PSAT is objectively easier than the SAT. It is also shorter but gives you more time per question for some questions. It also does not have an essay. These differences are not huge, but they are significant. If you are preparing for the SAT for college applications, you want your practice to mimic the real thing as closely as possible. Easier tests might leave you over-confident before the real test. Taking shorter practice tests might not prepare you as well for the length of the actual SAT. This becomes significant if you are planning to do the essay, which the PSAT will not prepare you for. Similarly, the no-calculator section on the PSAT might mess with your pacing since you get nearly 20% more time on PSAT no-calculator math questions. The purpose of this message is not to convince you to not take the PSAT, or to not take it seriously when you take it. On the contrary, I recommend taking it to all of my students. It’s cheap ($17 â€" though some schools make it free and others add on a little more in an admin fee), you might win a scholarship, and it gives you proctored, standardized test experience in a testing environment. Ideally, I think students should take a practice PSAT, then the real PSAT starting in 8th or 9th grade. In 10th grade, you can take the PSAT as well (or again), but you should also be incorporating official SAT practice tests in your studying. The reason for this blog is to reduce the stress associated with the test. If your school doesn’t administer it, don’t worry. You are allowed to take it at a neighboring local school that does offer it, or you can just skip it. You don’t need it to improve your SAT score. You probably won’t be missing out on a merit scholarship. It is not the best way to practice. And if you aren’t happy with your PSAT score, again â€" don’t worry. You can still do very well on the SAT if you start early, use the best, official preparation material and practice tests, and consider looking into an experienced Irvine SAT tutor to guide the way.

They start by  channeling the Andrews Sisters in throwback pompadours and military uniforms, then move  onto iconic looks like Elvis Presleys rhinestone-studded jumpsuit and Beyoncés  one-shouldered leotard. They even  sing along to The Beatles as kidnapped flower girls, go grunge with some intense Nirvana  air guitar, and take everything off as  Miley Cyrus. 5. Family Takes on Frozen Another lip sync success, this video by parents Sam and Nia went viral right in the height of the Frozen frenzy.

Cruising Cop Shakes it Off The car singalong that started it all wasnt even staged. Police departments issue dashboard cameras  for serious reasons, but the only serious thing about this video is the amount of dedication this on-duty cop puts into his lip-syncing routine. Officer Jeff Davis is happy to keep cruising for crime, as he shakes off the haters and puts his whole body into a Taylor Swift singalong. His enthusiasm took the Internet by storm. Songs to Sing in the Car Feeling inspired?

Freshmen Yields At Top Colleges

Freshmen Yields At Top Colleges Elite colleges are all in competition with each other, and the one statistic they can brag about is how many high school students who received acceptance letters actually commit and attend that college. Many top colleges believe that this figure is the ultimate sign of how prestigious and respected that certain college is. This is how colleges compare themselves to one another. Harvard, Dartmouth, Cornell and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill all had more accepted high school students actually commit to them than in previous years, according to an article in The New York Times. Harvard reported about a 75% positive freshman yield, which was a slight increase from last year. Dartmouth had a 55% yield, an increase of 7%. North Carolina had a 53.3% yield, compared to last years 53.9%. However, North Carolina has not heard back from its 350, accepted, wait-listed students. The university believes its yield will increase dramatically. Cornell and the University of Pennsylvania both had similar yields, compared to last year. Cornells was at 49%, and the University of Pennsylvania was at 63%. Most of the colleges freshmen yields are expected to rise after wait-listed students are accepted. What this means for wait-listed students: Bad. These elite colleges are receiving more commitments from originally accepted students. Therefore, the enrollment for the incoming freshman class is already much higher than expected. So, colleges will not need to pull as many students from waiting lists. Harvard estimated that it will accept only 75 students from its waiting list because of higher freshmen yields. Dartmouths freshmen yield grew increased 7%, and the university stated that it might not accept any students from its waiting list.

The word ballet comes from the term which means “dance”.Balletto was used to entertain guests at weddings before being brought to France by Catherine de' Medici when she became Queen of France. It would later be called “ballet” in the French court and opéra-ballet by Lully and Molière.Many monarchs and aristocrats would also commission ballets for special events. In fact, the Ballet Comique de la Reine was commissioned as a celebration of the marriage of Duke de Joyeuse and Queen Louise of Lorraine's sister, Marguerite de Vaudemont.While the origins of ballet are rooted in Renaissance Italy, it was the French and Russian influences that made it a noble pursuit.Stars like the Russian-born George Balanchine (he was the founder of the New York City Ballet and their Artistic Director for 35 years) would later help ballet find its feet in the United States. Nowadays, the US is home to many famous ballet companies like the Joffrey Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, and the Dance Theatre of Harlem.There are famous ballet companies and venues all over the world, too. There's the Royal Ballet and English National Ballet (London), Pacific Northwest Ballet (Seattle), the Bolshoi Ballet (Moscow), Kirov/Mariinsky Ballet (St. Petersburg), Paris Opera Ballet, The Royal Danish Ballet (Copenhagen), La Scala Ballet (Milan), the Australian Bal let (Melbourne), the National Ballet of Canada (Toronto), and the Dutch National Ballet (Amsterdam), to name a few.Find out more about the history of Ballet.The Codification of BalletDid you know...?Louis XIV was a big fan of dancing and ballet gained a huge boost thanks to the creation of Académie Royale de Danse (the Royal Dance Academy) in 1661.Ballet was codified with the creation of Pierre Beauchamp’s 5 positions (we'll cover those later). The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth positions are the foundation of ballet as we know it today.Ballet technique wouldn’t be formalised until the 19th century when the Cecchetti method brought the dancer’s anatomy and technique together. The technique is still used by the National Ballet of Canada.Rejuvenating BalletBallet finally prevailed as romantic ballet became popular. It showed up in a tutu, tights, and pointe shoes. The premiere of the ballet La Sylphide (The Sylph) in 1832 was hugely influential in marking this change. This is when the costumes commonly associated with ballet started appearing and the theatrical performances made use of staged effects.Russia would take the torch from France and Russian ballet, which had been present in the country for some years, travelled to other countries.Marius Petipa (a Frenchman who lived almost all of his life in Russia) choreographed some of the greatest masterpieces.His repertoire, which includes Tchaikovsky classics such as Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty, and The Nutcracker, as well as Don Quixote to the music of Ludwig Minkus, is still performed today.Popular ballets russes from the 20th century include Romeo and Juliet, Cinderella, and The Firebird with orchestra music from Stravinsky and Prokofiev.Even though ballet remains a strict and traditional discipline, ballet is modernising thanks to the talent of choreographers like Maurice Béjart, Benjamin Millepied, Pina Baush, and Rudolf Noureev who are implementing interesting artistry into contemporary ballet.The fact that dance education is also available to a much more diverse group of people is also helping people from many different backgrounds take dance classes London.Why Take Ballet Lessons?As you’ve probably understood, ballet is the gold standard when it comes to dancing and the masters of ballet are talented athletes and artists.Ballet is a genuine sport and art form. There are a lot of physical and mental benefits to studying and practising ballet  as you'll see when watching professional dancers in a dance company.Become More GracefulWhen you think of a famous ballerina, you probably imagine graceful pas de deux, entrechats, and pliés.

Flexibility is an important part of ballet but it’s also useful in other styles of dance like modern dance, dance fitness, hip hop dance, Oriental dancing, and the waltz.  From your arms to your legs, your back to the tips of your toes, improving your flexibility involves every part of your body.Don’t push yourself too far! Your body won’t be in the same state every day and you mightn’t be able to do the same stretches you did the day before.Listen to your body. It’s not a competition and even if you can’t do the splits, that doesn’t mean that you can’t become an exceptional and gracious performer and master a choreographed routine.Work On Your BrainWhen you start learning ballet, you’re also giving your brain a workout by learning the choreography.During your lessons, you’ll start being able to remember longer and longer routines. This isn’t just useful when it comes to ballet, it’ll also help if you do ballroom dancing, Cuban salsa, dance fitness, or even tap dancing.Dancing is an intellectual and technical sport. You can leave your problems at the door when you come to class. However, that doesn’t mean in any way, shape, or form that you’re turning your brain off for the hour. You’ll be too busy working on dance steps to think about anything else.There are so many reasons to learn ballet!

(Source: Myriams-Fotos)Get a Class on the Basic TechniquesIf you’ve never studied ballet, it might be worthwhile choosing an adult class covering the basic techniques. If it doesn’t specify, you should be looking for classes for beginners or something similar.There are sometimes classes for absolute beginners and false beginners, those who may have studied the basics a long time ago.In some cases, it may have been so long ago that it’s worthwhile going back to the very beginning and covering the 5 positions and how to move your arms.In general, private dance tutorials will cost you somewhere between £15 and £30 per hour.  Rates are usually higher in areas with a high cost of living as teachers and schools have more outgoings, etc.How to find a ballet class for adults.The 5 Ballet PositionsPierre Beauchamp w as a renowned court dancer and choreographer and codified the 5 ballet positions that most students will learn if they take lessons for absolute beginners:First position: Put your heels together and point your toes outwards.Second position: Point your feet in opposite directions with twelve inches of space between your two heels.Third position: Place one foot in front of the other so that the heel of the front foot is near the arch.Fourth position: There are two types of fourth position: open and closed. Place one foot about twelve inches in front of the other. Open means that your heels are aligned, while closed means that the heel of your front front foot lines up with the toes of your back foot.Fifth position: Form two parallel lines with your feet. The heel of your front foot touching big toe of the other and the heel of your back foot touching last toe of the your foot.Private Ballet Tutorials: Why Should You Learn with a Private Tutor?Would rather do ballet than bachata, Zumba , or flamenco?There are a number of great reasons for getting a private tutor to teach you:Shyness: No matter what the reason for your shyness, it can be the reason a lot of people never get dance lessons. Since there’s only you and the teacher in your class, there are fewer people to worry about as you learn to dance.A busy schedule:  Are you unable to get to the local ballet academy at the same time and place every week? Does your schedule change regularly? A private tutor is usually more flexible in terms of the hours they work and can even teach you in the comfort of your own home.
