Are you afraid of new technology

Introvert Whisperer / Are you afraid of new technology Are you afraid of new technology? Hi! Just when I thought I was past the need to learn some new technology for my business for a while, it seems that wasn’t in the cards.  I’ll tell you all about it below because it might be something you will want to take advantage of. I think the lesson in this is that you never stop learning and growing.  Things change around you daily and the best illustration of this is technology but its only one thing that changes.  Pretty much everything does. The deal is you have to be change-ready in life and work.  If you aren’t you get by-passed quickly.  Also, your life gets confusing and frustrating.  Imagine, not having or using the Internet?  Or not having a cell phone?  Or a car?  Life gets tough very fast. Obviously, there is some judgment that needs to take place to figure out whether or not learning something will enhance your life in any way.  But, staying open to change and having a willingness to change, is and will always be an asset for you. Do you know what your next career step is?  Many people don’t. I want to help you accelerate your career by connecting you with your Free Instant Access to my eBook on how to construct your Career SMART Goals â€" that will help you put together your actions and keep you accountable.  Get your copy now and start your action plan today:  CLICK HERE FOR YOUR FREE CAREER MAPPING GUIDE! Dorothy Tannahill-Moran Introvert Whisperer Here’s how I look at it:  You can learn something new and make the change that goes with it.  If you’ve given it a good shot and you don’t think it’s worthwhile, then stop.  Sounds a bit like quitting doesn’t it?  Maybe it is but I think you never know if something is going to work well for you until you try it long enough to make a truly informed decision.  I think there is a certain freedom in the idea that you can give yourself permission to try something and if you don’t like it or it’s not beneficial, then move on. Now you know and before you tried, you didn’t really know. So, here’s what I’m up to.  I’m going to start doing live videos on Facebook starting next week.  My plan is to do a couple of minutes of a career success tip once a week.  If all goes well, then I’m going to do a second live video with a tip and open QA for those who join in and want some answers to burning career questions.   Right now, I’m aiming for 4pm central.  I have to learn this first and give it a few tests before Monday but its technology â€" always filled with surprises.  To make this easy for you to check out, pop over to the Introvert Whisperer page and like it: Introvert Whisperer Facebook Page Wish me luck.

Calculus Solutions

Calculus Solutions Calculus Solutions Calculus Solutions Calculus solutions are an effective tool which is used to find the results of calculus problems. This tool is used to find the problem which involved limit continuity, differential calculus and integral calculus. It provides the detailed solution of the calculus problem just by using the rules and formulas of calculus. This tool is so effective that it provides not only the solutions but also provides the solution with proper explanation. The below mentioned two examples will help us in understanding the same in better way. Example 1:- Find the derivative of the 2(x2+1) Solution 1:- Given function are 2(x2+1) To find: - d/dx 2(x2+1) We know that, d/dx (xn) = nxn-1 Therefore, d/dx (2(x2+1)) = 2(d/dx(x2) + d/dx(1)) So d/dx (2(x2+1)) = 2 (2x+0) Therefore, d/dx (2(x2+1)) = 4x +0= 4x Hence d/dx (2(x2+1)) = 4x. This example gives the detailed solution of differential calculus problem. Example 2:- Find the integration of y50 dy Solution 2:- Given function is y50. Here we have to find the integration of y50. Now we know that, yn.dy = yn+1/ n+1 + c, Here c is constant of integration Therefore, y50 dy = (y50+1/ 50+1) + c = y51 / 51+ c So the integration of y50 dx = y51 / 51+ c In this example c is constant of integration. This example gives the detailed solution of integral calculus problem by following the step by step procedure in detailed way.

Surprising Ways Music is Good for your Heart

Surprising Ways Music is Good for your Heart Megan L. Most likely, youve felt a song pull on your heartstrings or maybe even felt your heart skip a beat. Countless love songs have been written about the heart, to the point that for many people love and music are beautifully intertwined. Outside of these emotional effects, did you know that playing and listening to music actually has real health benefits for your ticker? Whether youre a musician or a music fan, turn up the tunes and give your  heart some love. A recent study found that listening to music for just 30 minutes a day can lower your blood pressure. Patients with high blood pressure listened to classical music, Celtic music, or Indian ragas for a half hour every day for a month, leading to significant drops in systolic blood pressure, which is the top number when your blood pressure is taken. High systolic blood pressure increases heart disease risk. If you have high blood pressure, you should definitely consult your doctor for treatment options, but remember adding a daily dose of music cant hurt! Perhaps one reason music has the power to lower blood pressure is its natural stress-relieving ability. Music has actually been found more effective than prescription medications at reducing stress in patients before surgery. Next time you find yourself stressing, just take a deep breath and put on your favorite song. De-stressing isnt just good for your heart; taking time to chill out boosts your immune system and helps to clear your head. Musicians enjoy another heart benefit every time they pick up their instruments. Though most instruments are not exactly a workout, playing music does burn calories and it certainly beats eating potato chips on the couch. Drummers see the biggest burn, averaging around 200 calories per hour of playing. Guitarists and other musicians who rock out on their feet can burn from 130 to 200 calories per hour, while seated players only burn about 60 calories. When you are ready for your workout, listening to music pumps you up and increases your stamina. Studies have shown many benefits to adding music to your workout,  and regular exercise is one of the best ways to improve and maintain heart health. Dont forget to bring your iPod the next time you hit the gym! Even if you dont particularly like to exercise, you can at least enjoy your playlist. Now that you know how music is good for your heart, why not find a few more ways to add more music to your day? Here are a few ideas: According to Nielsen, the average American watcesh about 32 hours of television per week. Instead of automatically reaching for the remote, turn on your stereo instead and enjoy the benefits of music! Dont do your chores in silence! Put on your favorite album while you do the dishes or make a playlist you can put on when  you work in the yard. Adding music to your daily tasks will change your mindset and help your heart. Want to play an instrument but you never learned how? Now is always the best time to start music lessons! Learning to play will deepen your appreciation for music and give you a new way to experience your favorite songs. Musicians, do you turn off your cell phone and your computer when youre practicing your instrument? Many people dont, and it can be very difficult to disconnect. Remind  yourself that your emails will still be there later and give yourself at least 30 minutes of play without interruptions from technology. How do you connect with music every day? Let us know in the comments! Megan L.

Geometry Definitions Tutors

Geometry Definitions Tutors Geometry is a section in Mathematics which deals with different lines, angles and predominantly is the study of various shapes and their measurements. When two or more lines are connected, various kinds of shapes are formed and those shapes are called by different names like squares, rectangles, triangles etc. These geometric shapes have different side lengths, angles areas, volumes etc. and the study of all these measurements is Geometry. Geometry constitutes one of the most important sections in math and its concepts are used most of the time in our daily life. Example 1: Calculate the area of a triangle which has base side of length 5m and height of 4m? Soultion: Triangle is a geometric shape which has 3 sides and 3 angles. The area of the triangle is = 1/2 *(base)* (height) Given: Base length of the triangle, b = 5m Height of the triangle, h = 4m This gives, Area of the triangle, A = 1/2 * 5m * 4m = 10m2. Therefore, area of the given triangle is 10m2 Example 2: Calculate the area of a circle if the radius of the circle is 3m. Solution: In the given question, radius of the circle, r = 3m Area of the circle is given by the formula, Area = * (radius)2 In the above formula, (known as pi) is a constant == Value of = 3.14 Therefore we get, Area of the circle, A = * (3m)2 == Area, A = 9 = 28.3m2 Hence area of the given circle, A = 28.3m2

A Day in the Life at University of California-Berkeley

A Day in the Life at University of California-Berkeley The tutors behind Varsity Tutors are not just here to teach theyre sharing their college experiences as well. Kyler is a San Antonio tutor specializing in History tutoring, Literature tutoring, Philosophy tutoring, and much more. He graduated from University of California-Berkeley in 2011 with a Bachelors degree in Political Science. Check out his review of his school: VT: Describe the campus setting and transportation options.How urban or safe is the campus?Are there buses or do you need a car/bike? Kyler:UC Berkeleys campus is situated in the city of Berkeley, an urban environment. The campus is open to the public. It is easy to tell where the Berkeley city begins and the campus ends. This means that students can experience the benefits of an urban setting, like restaurants and housing close by, with public transportation. If youre a biker, Berkeley is the perfect place for you. Students can purchase an Oakland bus pass sticker that is placed on your student ID card, allowing you to use most of the East Bay transit system. The public transportation is quicker than those in other cities like Los Angeles, San Diego, or any other city that lacks adequate public transportation. The longest I waited for a bus was 20-25 minutes. One bus takes you to San Francisco and back. Owning a car is a liability there. People have them, but dealing with parking tickets, lack of parking, extra fees for parking spaces in rentals, etc. is a lifestyle choice youre going to have to get used to. Berkeley has the car share program, Zip Cars, where you can rent a car for however long you want. My friends and I rented the Zip Cars at midnight to do our big shopping, costing each of us $3. Unless you plan to travel to SF or outside of the Bay area, I would not suggest a car. Biking is great, but they are big targets of theft. If you do get a bike, make sure its theft-proofed. UC Berkeley, in my experience and in most of my friends experiences, was a safe place. The campus is safe, and during my time there, nobody was assaulted or robbed while on campus grounds. However, off campus can be a different story. I know that one student was robbed at knife-point just one block away from campus in the morning, and a my friend of mine was assaulted and injured not near the campus, but in the apartment complexes where many students live. Apartments have been broken into, but you can thwart breaking and entering if you place locks appropriately and make sure your most valuable items are with you in a safe place or are insured. You can also rent apartments that have key codes or keys to access them. Try renting rooms in the second or third floors. First floor apartments are easier targets, but I rented a first floor room to myself over the summer and nothing happened to it. VT: How available are the professors, academic advisers, and teaching assistants? Kyler:Most of my professors, teaching assistants, and graduate school instructors were available. I met with some of my professors regularly. You have to set time aside to attend student hours and arrange times to see your professors and GSI advisors when they are free. Ask questions and show a genuine interest in learning and your professors will remember you. I established relationships with my professors and GSIs by asking questions after class about their previous careers before academia and life in the academy. After graduating, I still email my professors to update them on my status and check up on their work. VT: How would you describe the dorm life rooms, dining options, location, socialization opportunities with other students? Kyler:I lived in transfer housing and it was a great place to make friends. It wasnt like the freshman or sophomore dorms. The transfer housing was more like apartments. I would try to get into transfer housing if you have the money. The rooms were furnished and the place was clean. Unit 2 apartments were expensive, but you got what you paid for. I never had a meal plan, but I know it was expensive to have one. There are plenty of student groups on campus and plenty of organizations off campus. I was involved in the choral groups at Cal and made many friends through my involvement. In my experience, it was difficult to make friends just around campus unless there was some event going on where you could make connections and relate with others. My activities centered around the campus, but after graduating, I can now say I wouldve spent more time searching for opportunities outside of the campus. VT: Which majors/programs are best represented and supported?What did you study and why? Did the university do a good job supporting your particular area of study? Kyler:Any program that receives federal or private funds from companies or foundations is well supported. With the budget cuts, some majors like Ethnic Studies have been reduced. It really depends on your major. Call the program and ask them if they have had their budgets restricted. I majored in Political Science because I wanted to take courses in international relations and political theory. Since federal foundations and endowments recognize Political Science as a science, they receive money that other hard sciences like Biology, Computer Science, and Engineering receive. The Political Science department had two amazing counselors that provided us updates on research and employment opportunities and events related to political science. VT: How easy or difficult was it for you to meet people and make friends as a freshman? Does Greek life play a significant role in the campus social life? Kyler:I was not a freshman at this school. There is Greek life, but it does not play a big role from what I witnessed. Professional groups for business, science, politics, etc. played a greater role because this was a way for students to network and gain skills in their desired field. When I got involved in the choral groups, it was easier to make friends. Just get out there and join groups that interest you. Try to make time to study and hang out with friends while you study. VT: How helpful is the Career Centerand other student support services?Do many reputable companies recruit on campus? Kyler:Like anything else, if you put more effort into something, youll get more out of it. In addition to this, if you know what youre looking for and are prepared with the right questions, the Career Center can be an amazing resource. When I did use the services, the Career Center provided me materials to look into careers, recommendation letter service, job postings, and career counseling. The career counselors I had helped me focus my career search and career path. They also gave me some UC Berkeley alumni to contact about career advice and informational interviews, which could have led to possible internships or employment if I had followed it up. VT: How are the various study areas such aslibraries, the student union, and dorm lounges? Are they over-crowded, easily available, spacious? Kyler:Any library at Cal is a perfect place to study. Be sure to keep your stuff close or study with a friend. The transfer housing had study and meeting rooms which were great places to study with friends. The meeting rooms in the housing were also close to your room. Any of these places will get crowded, especially during midterms or finals, so go early or ask friends to help save a spot for you. It depends on your preferences. Memorial Glade, a large green space in the middle of the campus, was a great place to study and be outdoors at the same time. Some of the buildings where classes were held were also great places to study. Tour the buildings and find what works best for you. Look for outlets to charge your laptop as well. VT: Describe the surrounding town. What kinds of outside establishments / things to do are there that make it fun, boring, or somewhere in between?To what extent do students go to the downtown area of the city versus staying near campus? Kyler:What you get out of Berkeley and Cal depends on you. If you get involved in the campus and in organizations within Berkeley, Oakland, or San Francisco, then youll have a great time. There are bars, but not many right next to the campus, so youll have to walk to downtown Berkeley or venture out more to find them. They are also expensive. It is a lot cheaper to visit Greek Row or have events at your friends places. COOP housing is always a great place to get cheap and free fun. Berkeley can provide a lot of entertainment, but also gets quiet around midterms and finals. There is the Greek theater for concerts, football games, and plenty of great restaurants around the campus. Know what you like and look for it, and it will be there. Downtown Berkeley is not that long of a walk from the campus, but students visited it regularly. Telegraph is the main street tourists and students congregate. When you mention downtown most students thought of Oakland or San Francisco which are only a BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) or bus ride away. VT: How big or small is the student body? Were you generally pleased or displeased with the typical class sizes? Kyler:UC Berkeley is an internationally recognized school and a part of the UC System; its classes are going to be large, especially general education classes for freshmen and sophomores. When you start taking classes in your major, class sizes shrink, but shouldnt stop you from connecting with your professor. VT: Describe one memorable experience with a professor and/or class. Perhaps one you loved the most or one youregretthe most. Kyler: American Cultures class Poli Sci 111, a requirement for every student at Cal, transformed my worldview of my place in American culture, country, and the world. The class and the professor motivated me to pursue a career in conflict resolution and to discover my background and my place in my society. In the class, we discussed topics that primary education (K-12) did not cover, like minority self-determination, labor rights, pioneer mentality, the immigrant experience, and participatory democracy. One theme that I adhere to today is the concept of the rhetoric of opposites. The concept describes Americans response to conflict, difference, and others, how we continue to teach this method in our pop culture, literature, and politics, and the conflict that this method produces. This lecture class motivated me to pursue training in conflict resolution, facilitation, and democratic decision making. Helping communities resolve their conflicts and find a just solution for all parties became my guiding mission and philosophy. It has informed my career and life choices. Immerse yourself in classes and you will get more out of them then just a grade. Check out Kylers tutoring profile.

Trinomial Factoring

Trinomial Factoring A trinomial is an algebraic expression containing three terms, where the terms are separated either by the addition operation or the subtraction operation. Trinomials are also considered as polynomials since they also contain variables and constants written together. In order to simplify a given trinomial, we can use the trinomial factoring method where the trinomial is either reduced from three terms to a single term, or it can be simplified to its lowest terms. With the help of trinomial factoring, the algebraic expressions can be easily simplified and solved to get the answer. Example 1: Simplify the given trinomial, 12x6 + 18x4 30x3using factoring method. Given trinomial= 12x6 + 18x4 30x3 We should first find the greatest common factor of the three numbers 12, 18 and 30 so that it can be factored out! GCF of 12, 18 and 30 is6. Similarly, common factor of x6, x4 and x3 is x3. Now, pulling out 6 and x3 we get: 6x3 (2x3 + 3x 5). Hence the factored answer for the given trinomial is 6x3(2x3 + 3x 5). Example 2: Simplify the given trinomial, 20x5 - 50x3 80xusing factoring method. Given trinomial= 20x5 - 50x3 80x We should first find the greatest common factor of the three numbers 20, 50, 80 so that it can be factored out! GCF of 20, 50 and 80 is 10. Similarly, common factor of x5, x3 and x is x. Now, pulling out 10 and x we get: 10x (2x4 5x2 8). Hence the factored answer for the given trinomial is 10x (2x4 5x2 8).

Avoiding the Pitfalls of Group Classwork

Avoiding the Pitfalls of Group Classwork Despite your best intentions and careful preparation, sometimes group assignments go haywire. Maybe your students dont work well together. Perhaps your efforts to foster collaboration dont always translate to student productivity. Here are a few common pitfalls of group classwork and tips to avoid these issues: Pitfall: Uneven workload. Theres no getting around it: some students put more work into group projects than others. You can avoid this problem by setting clear expectations upfront. Elementary students might do best with assigned roles, while older students should work from a group grading rubric that includes guidelines for sharing the duties. Try incorporating anonymous peer reviews into the project so students know theyll be assessed for their efforts (or lack thereof). Pitfall: Disorganization. Putting students together with different learning styles and ideas can cause a little chaos, making it hard for some to use class time wisely. You can greatly streamline group work by developing a timeline of milestones so that students know what they should do and by what date. If you prefer, give them the assignment details and have them get together to develop this schedule of deadlines on their own. Pitfall: Groupthink. Sometimes students in a group agree or keep quiet to avoid conflict. The problem with groupthink is that not everyone contributes or has the chance to put those critical thinking skills to work. To avoid this, talk with students about compromising and good listening. Consider holding periodic meetings with groups and inviting each student to share how the group came to its decisions. Mitigate the cons of group work with some proactive effort and your students will reap the gains. The best thing about group work, of course, is that it prepares students for the real world, where teaming up with others is a common occurrence. Set expectations and model good practices in your classroom and your students will benefit.

Choosing the Right SAT Subject Tests

Choosing the Right SAT Subject Tests During the test preparation process, the sheer number of tests and test dates can be overwhelming. Here at AJ, we have an expert knowledge of college entrance exams and can help you navigate the journey. Here’s a brief guide to one test (the SAT Subject Test, or SAT II) and how students can choose the right ones for them.OverviewUnlike the SAT, which is broad and covers many skills and content areas, the SAT Subject Tests focus on specific subjects taught in school. Because students are already preparing for finals at the end of the junior year, May and June are ideal months to take the SAT Subject tests. Acing the SAT Subject tests is a great way to show what you’ve learned throughout the year.There are 20 SAT Subject Tests, each of which is an hour in length, scored from 200-800, and comprised entirely of multiple choice questions. You can take up to 3 tests per test date, but we often find that 1-2 is ideal due to potential test day exhaustion.Factors to Consider in Choosing a TestYou can see a complete list of SAT Subject Test offerings here. The best way to see which SAT Subject tests are right for you is to take practice tests and score them. Here are a couple of key guidelines that can help along the way.1. College GoalsAdmission requirements around SAT Subject Tests vary widely among colleges. Many elites schools require or recommend 2-3 SAT Subject Tests. Examples include Brown University, Georgetown University, Caltech, Rice University, and Tufts University. You can find specific requirements on every school’s website, so it’s a valuable exercise to sit down and make a list of what your student will need to include in the application. If even a couple of your student’s top choices require or recommend SAT Subject Tests, it will be wise to have him or her pick exams and schedule a test date.2. The Student’s Strengths and CourseworkAP courses often translate well to the SAT Subject Tests, so if, for example, a student is excelling in AP Biol ogy and AP English Language Literature during her junior year, the SAT Biology and SAT Literature should be strong contenders for a May or June test date. Keep in mind that, while the AP’s and SAT’s often have much content overlap, there are certainly differences, and the formats are quite different. AP Exams rely more on essays and long-form responses as opposed to the strict multiple-choice format of the SAT’s. Thus, it’s important to be strategic and plan on preparing for both the AP and SAT separately towards the end of the course.3. CoachabilityIn addition to any solid AP coursework or obvious subject test affinities, we find that the Math II and Literature exams are great choices for many students. A junior who has taken or is taking pre-calculus will have completed all necessary coursework for both exams. Furthermore, these exams are especially coachable and strategic in nature, and our students have historically seen a great deal of success and improvement on these exams. For example: while we have an excellent record of success with all of the subjects, our biggest score increases come from the Math Level 2 SAT Subject Test, with many students improving over 100 points.How to Prepare for the TestsAJ Tutoring knows the SAT Subject Tests with a degree of expertise bordering on obsession. Luckily for students, a minimalistic approach focusing on a few key test-taking strategies, a series of full-length practice exams, and a targeted content review can work wonders in maximizing performance on test day.Our SAT Subject Test Students typically complete 3-4 sessions of 1.5 hours each. They start with an hour-long practice exam which serves as a jumping off point for a highly customized preparation beginning with session #1. In a 1-on-1 format, the tutor will observe the student’s strengths and weaknesses and tailor the instruction to fit his or her needs, assigning practice, reviewing gaps, and coaching on question evaluation as they go.You can le arn more about our preparation process here.Please reach out to us today to make a test prep plan for your student!
