ESL Study Tips For Taking The SAT - TutorNerds

ESL Study Tips For Taking The SAT - TutorNerds Making the SAT More Approachable for ESL Students Many students arrive in Irvine from all over the world. In fact, it is no surprise that people move to Orange County. The weather is beautiful and the public school system has a great reputation and our private Orange County tutors make in-home sessions. However, when it comes to the SAT, and other standardized tests, speaking English as a second language can be an issue. Being bilingual is a fantastic skill for college and for life in general and it also looks good on applications. Let’s look at some issues as well as ways to overcome them if you happen to be an ESL student (READ: 8 SAT Essay Tips). 1. Nuances and “Humor” I put humor in quotations because nothing about the SAT is really funny but there are several instances in the critical reading section where humor is displayed in Standard American English, and if standard American English happens to be your second language it can be really tricky. Actually, if Standard American English is your first and only language, it can still be really tricky. This is where a tutor comes in handy. Tutors who specialize in the Critical Reading section have read, memorized and learned to love these sections and passages. So, it is a safe bet that your tutor can help with these small yet crucial issues (CLICK: The Story Behind the SAT Overhaul). 2. The Dreaded (Now Optional) Essay SAT and ACT essay graders look for common mistakes in sentence structure and subject verb agreement that are often made by ESL students. I have seen some incredible essays with excellent examples that I know will likely not receive a 5 or 6 (out of 6) score because there are some basic grammar or sentence structure issues. A few hours with an essay specialist can help a lot when it comes to fine tuning the SAT and ACT essay. By the way, the SAT essay is very different from the ACT essay so check out our earlier blog post to learn the differences (READ: A Timeline Study Guide for the SAT). 3. Vocab, Vocab and More Vocab We all know that people don’t use words like supercilious or perfunctory in real life* but words like these appear on the SAT every year. About 1/3 to 1/2 of the words on the SAT actually do have some real world usage and will certainly impress your university English professor (you do know that everyone is required to take at least one college level English class, right?). If your English language vocabulary is not at a level that you need to reach your verbal target score, you may find yourself at quite a disadvantage. Tutors spend a lot of time going over vocab with English only and native speaking students, so ESL students will definitely want a few extra hours with their tutor to focus on this section. Native speakers also have the advantage that they have heard at least some of the SAT vocab words used in real life and, as a result may be able to figure out what the word means in relation to the context. If ‘meaning in context’ is a new term for you, now is a good time to arrange for a private tutor. *In case you were wondering Supercilious means arrogant Perfunctory means automatic 4. Grammar Errors I’m not talking about grammar errors that you make yourself but rather the errors that you have to fix in the verbal section. It is very easy for a teacher of English to fix all the little grammar and punctuation errors that are found in the verbal section. They do it every day. Did you know that ‘neither’ goes with ‘nor’, not ‘or’? Did you know that tenses must be consistent throughout a sentence? There is a good chance that you do but can you identify the errors in another’s writing, especially when that ‘other writer’ is a staff member at the SAT? SAT is not a logical test and thus getting good grades on your English homework is really no indication of how well you will score on the test. If you’re scoring 750-800 on both the Writing and Critical Reading sections then you are probably good to go. Actually, if you are scoring that high, you should probably apply to teach SAT. Getting below a 750? Call that Irvine SAT tutor. 5. Math No, I’m not crazy; math can still be an issue for an ESL student. Of course, numbers are numbers and calculators are calculators but word problems are written in English. Tutors go through math word problems with native English speakers all the time helping them pick out what the question is actually asking for, which words have no meaning and which words are meant to make test-takers confused and frustrated (dont wait too late and fall behind! Contact us today for one of our excellent Irvine math tutors). Allocate a couple of hours of your tutoring time to dissect these pesky word problems and see how much your score increases (READ: Use Your Math Intuition). Taking standardized tests like the SAT can put bilingual and ESL students at a slight disadvantage but there is no reason why you can’t completely beat the SAT verbal section with the help of a tutor. Work through it and get the score that will get you into that dream school. All blog entries, with the exception of guest bloggers, are written by Tutor Nerds. Are you an education professional?

Get your health check:Traveling can be physically demanding, so a visit to your doctor is a great idea to ensure that you’re in good health before setting off.If you’re moving abroad to teach, a health check is usually required before you can obtain a visa. You might also need to determine if your new destination requires any vaccinations prior to arrival.And if you need to travel with medication, you’ll need to check as to whether you can bring your medication into your destination country. Will you be able to purchase your it there if needed? Embassy websites will usually have useful links where you can find out what’s permitted to bring, and what’s available in the country. 4. Copy documents: It’s always wise to make both printed and electronic copies of your essential documents. Have a folder of essential travel documents in your carry-on, and make sure to leave a copy with family members at home in case of emergency. Necessary travel information includes the following: Your passport Airline tickets Emergency contact numbers Travel itinerary Teachers should also make copies of professional documents: Resume Teaching certifications Degrees Reference letters Even if your employment is already organized prior to your departure, you never know when copies of these documents might come in handy.Keep your important information at easy reach by emailing electronic copies to your account, or having them on a USB. 5. Stay in touch:You’ll want to make sure that your loved ones can contact you while you are traveling abroad, and vice versa. Share your travel experiences with everyone, and keep in touch with what is happening at home.You can set up a free Skype account, and encourage your friends and family to do the same. You’ll want your overseas adventure to be as fun and worry-free as possible. By making sure you’re prepared before you leave, hopefully you’ll avoid unnecessary complications in your trip.

Is college math a lot harder than high school math

Is college math a lot harder than high school math A college math can be a lot tougher than the high school math, but does not have to be. It also depends on what you mean by tough? Im going to make you guess more complex topics. If you finish high school with Integral Calculus (I think its still upper-level AP class) and then go to a non-STEM major in college.   You probably wont see anything new. However, if you finish your high school career with a pre-calculus course and study engineering in college, it is highly likely that you will at least have differential calculus. Integral calculus, multi-variable calculus and differential will take the equation. If you are going into aerospace engineering, then you have significantly more. Students choose Math for the academic benefits they reap out of it along with their chances of entering various careers. Still, many students who are excellent in high school Math find college Math difficult and mind boggling. They have to analyze their new situation with a different focus on their Math skills to ace the subject. Online College Math Tutors help students enter the subject in a smooth manner with their smart strategies. What kind of difficulties students face while entering college Math? At high school level, students grasp difficult Math topics once in a while. They get much of positive reinforcement from teachers to get across those difficult sums with ease. Instructions are many from school teachers. Whereas at college level, the approach to the subject is entirely different. Students need to look at Math sums with an analytical approach and learn things by themselves. Getting stuck in college Math is a very frequent happening but it is rather an encouraging sign for students to understand the sums in depth and explore methods to do the sum. Professors and teachers feel that getting stuck in a problem is the first step to analyze methods through which a student can get near a solution for a problem. College Math demands more work than school Math. Students need to prepare themselves for long study and homework hours. College Math Homework help online can be a good panacea for their homework tussles. Calculus is an intriguing part of college Math. It tests student brains and expects them to exercise their mental faculties in understanding its concepts. Many students fumble in this area and even if they get out of this critical phase, they find abstract Algebra more difficult. Only the cream of high school students enters college. So, an excellent high school Math student proves to be an average student among college students. Peer pressure and psychological complex also play a role in making college Math difficult. All these are the possible reasons for making college Math a hard nut. Still, the entry can be made smooth if students have the habit of contacting virtual college Math tutors for their doubts without hesitation on time and thus can find themselves fit in college classes with proper background knowledge of the topics handled in the class for the day. How virtual online Math tutors are an asset for students? When college students are in touch with online Math tutors, they have positive vibes about Math learning and do not give up hope even when they get stuck. Their assignments are not tough to do but become easy with College assignment help online from expert subject scholars. Instant rectifications of errors and immediate solutions for doubts are very essential for improving Math skills and college tutors provide them to students on the spot with the aid of empowered technological tools. Most colleges have more than 50% incoming freshmen taking the remedial math and writing classes, but with the help of online tutors, student can overcome such fear and do better In college.

Guide To Build Good Relationships with Co-Workers - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Guide To Build Good Relationships with Co-Workers - Introvert Whisperer Guide To Build Good Relationships with Co-Workers Human beings are social creatures by nature: and, that goes for the introverted people too. Positive interactions and friendships are very critical, especially at the workplace. Remember that it is where people spend most hours of their lives. The management is well aware of what good relations at the workplace come with; it is for that reason that emotional intelligence tests are carried out alongside cognitive ability test during hiring. Good work relationships contribute to better performance as people find work more enjoyable if they relate well with their colleagues. A good work relationship is defined by mutual respect, trust, welcoming diversity, open communication, and mindfulness. While it may be easy for folks with certain personality types to create good relationships at the workplace, for some like the introverts it may be a little bit challenging. However, the following tips will go a long way in helping you achieve that. 1. Work on your people skills People skills can be defined merely as behavioral interactions. For you to foster good relationships at the workplace, the first thing you should take care of is your people skills. Equip yourself with soft skills, which mean how you deal with conflict, communicate and collaborate with others. You can conduct a self-test and see where you are with people skills and identify areas that you will need to improve. 2. Assess your relationship needs You need to take time and determine your needs in relationships. Know what others need from you and what you need from them. That way you will be able to make significant improvement in your relationships. 3. Develop your EI You need to develop your emotional intelligence. It plays a critical role in helping you know how other people feel and interpreting their emotions. It is also essential for you as a person as it will help you take control of your own feelings. 4. Create time to build relationships Do not stay behind your desk all day at the workplace. Step out of your shell once in a while. It does not mean that you won’t get your work done. Twenty minutes a day should be enough. You can further segment it into five minutes and use them to know how your colleague is doing at the other corner of the office. Lunch hours are also a great time to interact with your colleagues and build relationships. If you are used to going for lunch alone, consider going with someone this time around. 5. Be positive No one wants to be around a person who rants the whole day about the boss or something else about the job. For you to have healthy relations at the workplace, it is essential that you be positive. It is contagious and more so, attractive. It is important also to note that good work relationships are based on mutual respect. That means that you should stay away from anything that puts that at stake. Therefore you should avoid gossiping and manage boundaries.
