If you have been to your local library lately you have probably read about this and likely asked yourself how you can possibly get involved. Well, you need not worry, because this year's prize is actually getting a lot of attention in the news media.There is a lot of excitement and hype surrounding this prize, and many people are looking forward to the result of the competition. Perhaps you will be next. A lot of interesting things will be decided during the judging process, and everyone will have their say. The winners will be announced at a banquet, and some reports indicate that the prize is intended to reward excellence in chemistry, and the fine work of chemists all over the world.As an entrant into the competition, you are expected to have a great deal of ability in chemistry, but perhaps you want to be involved with something other than che mistry. This could include fields like medicine, or even physics. If you would like to make a bigger impact on the world around you, you can consider studying areas such as math, or neuroscience.If you are a good scientist, or someone who is interested in becoming one, you might also like to consider studying or researching biology. Research has shown that there are several benefits to studying biology and other related subjects.If you are very interested in chemistry but do not wish to study it, then you can find many opportunities outside of the laboratory. For example, if you have studied biology or psychology, you may want to consider working as a psychiatrist or psychologist.You can expect to hear a lot of comments from past awardees and candidates. Check out the link below for more information, and it should give you a good idea of what you can expect. If you have always wanted to be involved in science, but were put off by the thought of the work involved, you can now get inv olved.

Success for Independent Learners Getting out of College Faster

Success for Independent Learners Getting out of College Faster Success for Independent Learners: Getting out of College Faster Success for Independent Learners: Getting out of College Faster There are many students out there who excel in a traditional school environment. However, it’s a struggle for independent learners to sit and endure the structure of a classroom day after day in high school and then repeat the same thing in college for another 4 to 5 years. Independent learners are often creative learners and good problem solvers, but theyre sometimes unaware of potentially beneficial avenues that can help them get their college degree faster and more effectively. 1. Take AP tests (without taking the course) The vast majority of students will only achieve a 3 or higher on their AP exams (AP exams are scored from 1 to 5 and a 3, 4 or 5 is considered a passing score) if they take the full year AP course, however, a few students can study for these exams on their own or with a private Irvine tutor and still receive a passing score. Its a little-known fact that students are not required to take the AP course to take the exam. Students who are either highly independent learners or those who wish to take an AP exam other than what is offered at school may be able to get several credits out of the way before entering college (READ: Ask a Nerd! Taking the AP Exam). 2. CLEP tests Independent learners may also do well on CLEP tests, also offered by the College Board. CLEP stands for College-Level Examination Program and offers independent learners a chance to demonstrate their mastery of college-level material by taking an exam rather than the course. Although the CLEP tests were originally designed to aid nontraditional students, such as those who were homeschooled or had a nontraditional high school education, members of the military entering college after their service, or adult students returning to school later in life, traditional high school students can also take advantage of the CLEP exams as well. Independent learners can potentially take multiple exams and avoid several months sitting in a classroom reviewing material they already know. 3. Community college credit Although most students are unaware, many universities allow enrolled students to take a certain number of credits at a community college. This can benefit students who will be living back at home during the summer and want to get a few credits out of the way. This is an especially good option for students who were locked out of the class they wanted to take for their major or who would like to save a lot of money by paying community college fees instead of university fees. Community college credit is a great option for independent and determined students (READ: Staying Focused at Community College). 4. Independent study within the university Independent learners can often earn several credits towards graduation by signing up for an independent study course. Its recommended that students sign up for an independent study with a professor they already have a good professional relationship with and one who is willing to meet with them once every two weeks or so to check on progress. Although independent study courses are self-led by the student, and the professor serves primarily as a guide, its a great option for an independent learner who doesnt want any more time in the classroom. This type of class can also demonstrate the ability to complete tasks, meet deadlines, and develop leadership skills that are valuable to future employers (READ: Choosing a Major in College). In short Although the traditional educational system works for many students, there are some highly independent learners who simply cannot stand to sit in a classroom any longer than they already have. Such students can take advantage of multiple exams and little-known avenues of opportunity that can help them get out of college in less than four years and save them a bundle of money. However, students should do research ahead of time to ensure that the university they attend (or want to attend) will except all of these CLEP, AP, and independent study credits prior to putting in the time to take these exams and courses.

How is Kumon Different from School Math

How is Kumon Different from School Math How is Kumon Different from School Math? Dribble, pass, shoot! Young soccer players complete endless drills learning these core skills before ever using them in a game. When it comes time to apply them in an actual competition, the moves come automatically. Similarly, many violinists learn proper hand positioning before they ever pick up a bow. When they begin to play, they’re simply stringing together the basic skills they’ve already mastered. What do soccer and the violin have to do with Kumon? Just as athletes and musicians learn skills before applying them in games or performances, students in Kumon learn math skills before applying them in real-life situations. This is a key difference between Kumon Math and the math that is taught in most school systems in North America. It’s also what makes Kumon the perfect supplement to school math. Mathematics vs. the Application of Mathematics While school curriculums can vary significantly, most school math programs teach the application of math. That means that students learn math as it is used in the real world. For example, students might learn addition through scenarios like, “Emma has one apple in her basket. She adds one more apple to the basket. Emma now has two apples.” This may seem like an intuitive way to learn mathâ€"after all, that’s how most of us were introduced to adding. And what’s the point of learning math if you can’t use it in the real world? As the math concepts get more difficult, the real-life application gets more complex, compounding the problem. A naturally talented soccer player may be able to excel on a recreational team without having honed her skills, but as the level of competition gets more difficult, her skill gaps will become more apparent. Similarly, a math student may be able to grasp basic concepts with little practice, but as the math gets more challenging, the gaps will begin to show. Kumon Math Unlike school, Kumon teaches strictly mathematics. In Kumon, it is not technically necessary to understand how to apply 1+1=2 in the real world. Students simply must learn that 1+1=2 is a true statement. Students then learn that 2+1=3, 3+1=4, and so on. Math is taught incrementally, with students progressing step-by-step from counting all the way through calculus. As students do not need to have real world experience to learn what is strictly mathematics, even elementary school students can progress to algebra and beyond. Eventually, as students’ number sense and real world experience come together, they are able to apply what they’ve learned in different contexts. Some might find it counterintuitive to learn mathematics without its applications. After all, why learn what one plus one equals if you can’t make the connection that adding one penny to another equals two cents? However, once a student has learned a math concept, they then have an easier time learning how to apply it. Some math application is included in the Kumon Program, but it is only introduced once a student has mastered the mathematical concepts. Without a strong base in the necessary math skills, students will reach a point where applying math is too difficult.  Just as a soccer player learns how to dribble the ball before applying that skill in a game, students should learn math skills before applying the concepts in real life situations.

However, there is a minimum age for working. If you're old enough to work in the UK, you're old enough to be a tutor.You're probably also wondering whether your German's good enough to be a tutor. If you want to teach your students German, you’re going to need to know more than just a few German phrases, you're going to have to be almost fluent in your second language.Students are going to want to know what level you are. Once you’ve finished your adverts or put your profile for German online tutoring jobs, you’re also going to have to prove to them that you’re good enough at the language to teach German lessons.We’d therefore strongly recommend against just putting phrases like “I love German” on your profile since you’ll run the risk of never being contacted.It’s generally understood that anyone with a degree in their given subject has the necessary level to provide academic support in that given subject. However, even if you do have a degree, it won't hurt to brush up on your German grammar before you get into teaching.On the other hand, don’t worry if you don’t have a degree! You can still offer private tutorials in your second language on Superprof without a degree.Either way, you’ll need to know precisely what your level in German is before you get started and be able to prove it to your students.In terms of the types of teaching and students you’re going to teach, certain qualifications might be indispensable.Teach German for SchoolAcademic support is the most common type private tutorial since the typical learner is in school studying their GCSEs or A Levels.The tutor’s level in German will depend on the level they’re teaching, of course.If you’re a sixth former who’s highly skilled in German, you could offer basic German tutorials to younger children and even help GCSE students with their German speaking exams, etc. That said, you can't just stroll into class! You need to make sure that all your lessons are carefully planned.In fact, the same goes for whether you’re teaching others how to speak German while you’re at unive rsity or full time. You should always be prepared1Teaching German requires a special set of skills.

Don’t forget to take a German level test in order to add your level to your private tutor CV!The TestDaF seems to be one of the best to work out your level and that of your student.  This test is aimed for those who would like to study in Germany but it’s also great for anyone wanting to find out their level in German. The test is complete and widely recognised.You can test your comprehension (listening and reading) as well as production (writing and speaking German).It’s based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).  The highest level on this scale is C2, proficiency.This is because you don’t technically need a technical vocabulary but instead a good ove rall score to teach German for school.The test takes place twice per year. In April and in October. If you’d like to sign up for the next exam then you’re going to need to get in touch with your nearest Goethe Institut.The Goethe Institut also offers other level tests for various CEFR levels.  The “Geothe-Zertifikat” covers the largest number of CEFR levels.  Unlike the TestDaf, these exams only cover comprehension.  The C2 is the broadest of these exams as it includes three qualifications in one.Don’t forget to put the results of these tests on your posters for private tutorials. Since these exams are respected and trusted, they’ll play an important role in developing the relationship between you and your students.Don’t forget to add your other experience with German (language stays, studying German, your A Levels, etc.).

It’s also the most difficult.If you pass this exam, it indicates that your German is of a level similar to a native speaker’s.  It’s higher than the CEFR C2 level.If you want to sit (and pass) this exam, don’t forget that this will allow you to be a teacher... in Germany!If you don’t want to pack your bags yet, remember that it’ll also be a massive feather in your cap.This is why you shouldn’t wait to pass a German exam and start providing private German tutorials at home. They’ll also allow you to find students more easily and command a higher rate for your lessons.German Teachers in the National Education SystemMany teachers working in the national education system want to provide private tutorials.Are you a German teacher in a school wanting to earn some extra money at the end of the month and help your students achieve academic (or professional) success?
