What It Takes To Be A Successful Tutor

What It Takes To Be A Successful TutorMost people want to know what it takes to be a successful tutoring student. Is it difficult to be a successful tutor? Are there any good resources online that can help one become a tutor? It is important to recognize the unique challenges that exist as the demand for tutors increases in the Chinese culture.As a person looking to be a good tutor, there are some things you need to do and see to succeed. Some people will tell you that you cannot be a good tutor because you don't speak the language or have the education. As a tutoring student, there are a few very important factors that must be considered. Without these, your success will be at a disadvantage.There are some people who make it their goal to be an American citizen or someone who has the education to be fluent in the English language. While the latter is certainly an advantage, you should take a lesson from the former. Tutoring, when done in the right way, is fun.Tutoring comes with its challenges but if you focus on them, you will have success. One of the most important things that need to be realized is that there are a large number of English speaking students in China. So, the idea that it is not possible to be a good tutor in Chinese due to the language barrier is absolutely false.Of course, some people will disagree with this statement but without that there would be no Chinese speaking population, which in turn would mean that you would be restricted in the major part of the world. There is also another important fact that needs to be considered. If you learn a foreign language fluently, your career as a tutor will surely grow in a big way. You may not become the face of a tutoring school but you will definitely have a more than fair chance of success.The last point that needs to be addressed is education. Most tutoring schools these days are very different from each other. Some will require a person to be well educated while others will not. To become succ essful at tutoring, you must understand that it is not that hard.These are just a few important facts that need to be recognized when looking for good resources online to become a tutor. Remember that, in addition to having the education, a person must also have a passion for the subject and the experience to be able to teach it successfully.

10 Great Movies About Musicians (and Their Formulas for Success)

10 Great Movies About Musicians (and Their Formulas for Success) Mac There are a ton of movies about musicians out there but what can you learn from them? In this article, music teacher Willy M.  takes you through 10 movies about musicians and reveals their unique tricks  that made them successful “Art is the closest we can come to understanding how a stranger really feels. Roger Ebert When it comes to movies about musicians, we generally see the same pattern in each  story: an unknown artist struggles with their personal demons as they  try to make a name  for themselves, and  they ultimately reach stardom at the expense of their relationships or mental health. While most of these movies fit a cookie-cutter pattern, they also showcase the unique skills and tactics that each artist uses to become successful. Below is a list of 10 movies about musicians that include a brief summary of each  film, as well as each artists special formula for rising to the top. These  movies were selected based on Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score, meaning we picked the top 10 movies based on tens of thousands of audience votes. Are you ready to take an inside look? Lets check them out! Walk the Line (2005) “Walk the Line” is the story of Johnny Cashs rise to fame. It gives a glimpse of both the triumphs and heartaches that come from striving for fame. Johnny had a troubled relationship with his father, and playing music was his way of finding solace. Unfortunately, he turned to drugs for the same reason. The movie demonstrates how Johnny went from one failed relationship to another, eventually conquering his addiction to drugs, and ultimately finding a way to use his music to inspire and bless people (namely  prisoners)  who related to him. Click here to watch the trailer As demonstrated in the film, Johnny Cash learned how to make the I, IV, V pattern work for him. His simple chord structure, under well-crafted melodies, put his songs in the minds of listeners for generations to come. While Johnny Cash songs arent  structurally complex, the melodies are catchy and reminiscent of older folk idioms that continue to inspire and challenge players today. Ray (2004) Many  movies  discuss the dangers of using drugs to fuel creativity, and “Ray” is no exception. Jamie Foxx portrays the late, great Ray Charles in this biopic about his life. In the movie, we see  Rays  rise to fame and his struggle (and ultimate victory) over a heroin addiction. Click here to watch the trailer Foxx’s portrayal of Ray Charles is one of the most accurate depictions of a popular musician moviegoers will see. We see a great deal about the process of making a great recording, and how producing a good record  is often a team effort. Ray has a great band, awesome producers (like the legendary Ahmet Ertegun), and great backup singers (though theyre often at the center of many of his issues). Rays success  shows us that its important to work well with others, and that serving the music should come before serving yourself. Love and Mercy (2014) “Love and Mercy” describes the life of Beach Boy bass player, songwriter, producer, and vocalist, Brian Wilson. The movie shows Brian slowly descend into madness during the recording of the “SMiLE” album. He spent years in a drug-induced fog, until the controversial Dr. Eugene Landy helped “rescue” him from his addictions. But it really took Brian’s love for his wife, Melinda, to rescue him from the clutches of the overbearing Dr. Landy. Click here to watch the trailer Surprise, surprise! This is a film that, yet again, shows the dangers of using drugs to self-medicate, and how they quickened  Wilson’s mental descent. But this film also demonstrates true musical genius when it comes to the amazing melodies and harmonies that Wilson chooses to explore in his music. The true nature of great melodies is demonstrated in the scenes that show Wilson composing. The movie also shows how  some  of Brians melodies are almost lost by the verbal abuse from his  demanding father, Murray. Yet, the powerful melodies endure and inspire us today, which goes to show you that a great melody is practically immortal! Coal Miner’s Daughter (1980) “Coal Miner’s Daughter” tells the story of country singer, Loretta Lynn, and her rise to stardom from the absolute depths of poverty. Her musical endeavors are supported by  her husband,  her  children, and her  manager, Norm Burley. Burley is shown throughout the movie tirelessly  working to promote Lynn’s music. Click here to watch the trailer One of the key takeaways from this movie, aside from the tremendous amount of hard work that Loretta puts into her act, is the amount of effort her family and manager put into it as well. What we see as a successful “solo” act is actually the result of many people working together to bring her music to the world. This is another important lesson that young musicians should know: No matter how good you are as a musician, you cant get anywhere without the support of quality people. This movie teaches us that  when you get to the top, be careful not to step on the people who helped you make it. Amazing Grace (2006) This movie is about the events that led to  the classic Christian  hymn, “Amazing Grace,” and the ending of slavery in England. The movie depicts the work of William Wilberforce, an attorney who strove to end the slave trade in England. One of Wilberforce’s friends and supporters is John Newton, former slave-trader turned churchman. Newton inspires Wilberforce with courage and spiritual strength to stand up against an age-old tradition (slavery) that both men see as pure evil. Newton describes the events that caused him to have a religious conversion, which he sees as giving him a second chance in life. These events inspire the words to the beloved  hymn, Amazing Grace. Click here to watch the trailer This movie teaches many great  lessons that young musicians can learn from, but one that stands out is the power of a lyric. Amazing Graces lyrics show that faith and a new start can truly cause change in both individuals  and society as a whole. John Newton was a scoundrel, but after nearly dying at sea, he became a Christian. Instead of enslaving his fellow man, he spent the rest of his life working to end slavery. His powerful testimony has been passed down in the form of a hymn  and has inspired people from all walks of life to continue to work towards helping people instead of harming them. Amazing Grace shows the value of songwriting and how a truly inspiring song can continue to impact the lives of people for hundreds of years afterwards. The Glenn Miller Story (1954) “The Glenn Miller Story” tells the story  of big band era (1930s-1940s)  band leader, Glenn Miller. Not only was Miller the leader of a famous band, most famous for the song “In the Mood,” but he also served in the Army Air Corps during WWII. His stint in the Air Corps was brief, however, when his plane disappeared  over the English Channel in 1944. Click here to watch the trailer This movie  shows a top notch musician (he played cornet, mandolin and trombone) and band leader who felt a higher calling than just entertainment. He chose to give up a lucrative career as a band leader, at the height of his fame, in order to help stand up against the tyranny of Nazi Germany. And though it ultimately cost him his life, he died for something he believed in, which is a rare thing in the music business these days. The takeaway for modern musicians:  use your music to accomplish great things, and not just to entertain for entertainments sake. La Bamba (1987) La Bamba is  the story of Ritchie Valens, one of the first Hispanic rock stars in the world. The movie follows his rise to stardom, showcasing his  rocky relationships with his family and his girlfriend, Donna. Valens career was tragically cut short because of a  plane crash that also killed another musician on our list, Buddy Holly. Click here to watch the trailer Ritchie Valens was one of the first rock musicians to combine traditional Mexican scales over top of rock rhythms and chord progressions. We see in this movie that talent took Valens a long way, along with his creation  of  a new genre  that combined traditional rock with a new style. La Bamba was a great song because it took the newly developed idiom of rock  and  slapped a folk tune and lyrics onto the new style.  His style was certainly enduring people love La Bamba even to this day! The Buddy Holly Story (1978) “The Buddy Holly Story” tells the tale of early Rock n’ Roll guitar legend, Buddy Holly, and his band, the Crickets. In their brief career, they had hit after hit of great tunes that continue to influence musicians to this day. Click here to watch the trailer Buddy Holly is one of those musicians that, even if you’ve never heard of him, you’ve been influenced by him. Even though he died in the 1950s, musicians for decades to come  were heavily influenced by his music  (e.g.  James Taylor, The Ramones, Don McLean, Tom Petty, the Cars, and many other famous musicians who were  kids in the 50s and early 60s). Buddy Holly’s music shows that a great lyric, melody, and chord progression will last forever.  Not only were his melodies  well-crafted and infectious, but his punctuated singing style was unique at the time and set him apart from other singers. Bound for Glory (1976) “Bound for Glory” describes the events surrounding the life and times of folk legend, Woody Guthrie. When the harrowing Dust Bowl hit Oklahoma in the 1930s, Guthrie left his wife to migrate to Southern California. From there, his music career began. Click here to watch the trailer Guthrie was one of the most influential figures surrounding the folk movement of the 1960s. Even if you haven’t heard of him, you’ve undoubtedly heard of Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, or Simon and Garfunkel; they were all heavily influenced by Woody Guthrie. Guthrie’s simple melodies, such as “This Land Is Your Land,” captured a generation of singers who loved to perform his tunes. His rambling lifestyle gave him a great amount of material to write about, as well as  reflect on a tumultuous period of American History, prior to World War II. Woody Guthrie’s life and music demonstrates the importance of the songwriter as a historical record-keeper. The Benny Goodman Story (1956) “The Benny Goodman Story” is not supposed to be the most accurate version of the big band  leader’s life, but it does capture the great music that Benny Goodman produced. The actual details seemed to have been adjusted by Goodman, who was still alive while the movie was being made (and who played most of the clarinet solos that were recorded for the movie). Most of the movie centers around his romance with his wife, Alice Hammond, sister of John Hammond, the guy who discovered Bob Dylan years later. Click here to watch the trailer This movie  is inspirational to young musicians because it shows that you should continue to strive to develop your art and bring your gift to the world, despite the  obstacles that might get in your way. Benny Goodman was wise in his choice of side musicians one of his sidemen was the great jazz drummer, Gene Krupa. Picking great musicians to work with will challenge any musician to strive for greatness. Honorable Mentions Here are some other movies about musicians that are worth checking out too.

Help your Child Deal with Exam Stress

Help your Child Deal with Exam Stress As the exam period approaches, parents can often notice their children getting more uptight, especially if they are sitting the all-important GCSEs, AS or A-Levels. Super-tutor Mark Maclaine provides his top tips for parents to alleviate exam stress.   1. Permission to fail When  children are stressed it is usually because they’re thinking more about the consequences of the exam than the actual exam itself. Sadly, I’m afraid just telling them not to think about the outcome will just make them think about it more! Many of the most successful and happiest students I’ve ever worked with have one thing in common. Their parents are focussed on hard work over grades. I often hear them saying things like “If you can honestly say that you have worked hard and tried your best, then we don’t care what the results are”. Giving a child permission to fail, whilst emphasising the need for putting in the work, is one of the most powerful tools parents have in helping their children. This is also powerful in tutoring. When I’m training tutors I will tell them to congratulate students not for getting a question right, but for showing their working and trying their best. This lifts the focus away from getting questions right, and helps the student learn a valuable lesson - that making mistakes is a good way to learn and hard work pays off in the end. 2. Subconscious stress Many of the students I work with who suffer from extreme exam stress are reacting to the, often unconscious, stress of their own parents. Many parents worry that if their son/daughter isn’t doing well at school then maybe the parents aren’t doing their job properly. Children are extremely good at picking up on this anxiety, no matter how well we think we are hiding it. Be honest with your children. Let them know that although you do want them to do well, you will love them no matter what. Parents often assume their children know this, but when you listen to the stressed children this is may not be the case. 3. Don’t add to the stress Find ways to reduce the amount of things children have to think about before exams, and don’t add to them by making threats. The last thing you want your child thinking about during an exam is losing the XBox, rather than  focusing  on the questions in the paper. 4. See stress as positive Help your children understand what they are likely to be feeling just before an exam. Let them know that their heart rate will often rise and they may feel jittery. This is their body getting them ready for a challenge, and with increased heart rate their brain will be receiving more oxygen - which is a good thing. Recent scientific studies have shown that reframing stress in this way leads to dramatically more positive physiological effects on the body, and can actually help performance. Blood vessels open up and instead of being a hindrance, the stress children feel can be channelled positively. 5. Listen to your child Let your child know that it’s normal to be worried, and that you yourself have been in this position too. Listening to concerns and genuinely empathising, putting yourself in the child’s position, serves to release some of the anxiety. This then allows the child to start opening up to new possibilities. Simply telling children not to stress can often make things worse as it can seem as if you are invalidating their feelings. Ask them if they think there is a lot of pressure on them, and be prepared for them to say yes. Find out what they think will happen if they fail the exam. Listen to their concerns and work together to find ways to combat this together. 6. Use tools such as tutoring and exam preparation sensibly Many children will be reassured by speaking to a tutor who has specialist knowledge of the exam they are about to sit. Just speaking to someone who can tell them exactly what challenges they are likely to face removes the fear of the unknown. But: the last thing you want to do is exhaust your child with too much preparation! A good tutor will tell you when the child is overloaded, and further lessons might actually be detrimental to performance. If you or your child would like a tutor then why not book a tutor to come to your house from the Tutorfair website.

Homework Routines That Work for Kids with ADHD

Homework Routines That Work for Kids with ADHD As a therapist I hear over and over again from parents and kids with ADHD that homework is the number one cause of frustration, stress, and arguments at home. This is true whether kids are in elementary school and have only 20 minutes of homework each night or they are in high school and have an hour or more of homework to do each day. Why? While it might seem like it should be simple enough to just sit down and do your homework, the task of doing homework actually requires many complex skills that are hard for kids with ADHD, like getting started right away, staying focused on something that is not interesting, delaying gratification (since homework comes with no immediate reward), organizing and prioritizing assignments, sitting still for an extended period of time, and blocking out distractions. On top of this, the same ADHD symptoms that make it hard to do homework interfere with learning during the school day, which means a child may not have absorbed all the academic knowledge and skills needed to complete any given assignment. When we take a step back and think about homework from this perspective, it starts to become a little clearer why kids with ADHD struggle the way that they do. The good news is that despite the complexity of the problem there are some fairly simple things parents can do to help make homework time easier. The first, which I talked about in my last post, is to create a homework station designed specifically for a child with ADHD. The second is to create a simple homework routine that lays out the steps your child needs to complete each day and rewards him or her for his or her effort. When both the homework station and homework routine are used consistently, homework time becomes infinitely easier for kids with ADHD. Steps for creating a homework routine: Time of day. Have your child do homework as soon as possible after he or she gets home from school or after-school activities. The later it gets the more fatigued kids become, and the harder it is for them to stay focused and on task during homework time. And as much as possible, have your child do his or her homework at the same time each day. If after-school schedules make this difficult, then aim to create as much consistency as possible for example, on Tuesdays and Thursdays homework time is 4:30 and on Mondays and Wednesdays homework time is 6:00. Use a timer to build in homework breaks. Many younger kids with ADHD can only stay on task for about 10 minutes, and some older kids or teens with ADHD max out at around 20 or 30 minutes. Plan for this by building 5-minute breaks into the homework routine. Have your child set a timer for the first stretch of work time (15 minutes, for example). Your childs job is to work consistently during this time. Then when the timer goes off he or she gets a 5-minute break. Make sure your child sets a timer for this break period and gets back to work for the next 15-minute segment once the break is over. Some parents worry that if their child takes a break he or she will never get back to work, but as long as you build this into your homework plan and reward your child for getting back to work quickly when the break is over, you should see that he or she actually gets more work done with breaks than he or she would with no breaks at all. Clear expectations. Provide your child with clear expectations around the behaviors you want to see during homework time. Really think through the small steps that you want him or her to take, regardless of what his or her specific homework assignments might be. Focus on things like getting started right way, continuing to work until the timer goes off, and getting back to work right away when the break is over. Try to keep your expectations limited to just 5 steps. For example: Get started on your homework right away at your homework station (with only 1 reminder from an adult). Use a timer for homework time (10 minutes) and break times (5 minutes). Get back to work right away when a break is over. Try to answer each question or problem at least once before asking for help. Keep working until your timer goes off or your homework is finished. Build in rewards. First you work then you play is a good rule of thumb for everyone to learn and follow, and this is especially true for kids with ADHD. When it comes to doing homework, you can use this rule to create natural rewards that your child can earn when he or she finishes his or her work and has met your clear expectations. Think about fun activities your child likes to do that be used to motivate him or her to get homework done quickly. These can be things like playing with favorite Legos, playing outside, getting a limited amount of screen time, building forts out of pillows and blankets, etc. If time in the evening is very limited and you feel like you wont be able to squeeze in a fun activity on some nights, then you can allow your child to earn a small reward instead (check out my post on quick and easy reward ideas for families). Sit down with your child and create a list of activities or tangible rewards they can earn for meeting homework expectations. Make a When-Then plan. Use the list of homework expectations and the list of possible rewards to create a When-Then plan. When you complete your homework and meet the expectations, Then you can choose one activity or reward from the list. Print your When-Then plan and post it on a wall near your childs homework station so he or she can see it while he or she works. If your child starts to get off track, remind him or her about the plan and give your child an opportunity to refocus on work. SAMPLE HOMEWORK WHEN-THEN PLAN WHEN I FINISH THESE STEPS: Get started on my homework right away at my homework station (with only 1 reminder from an adult) Use a timer for homework (10 minutes) and breaks (5 minutes) Restart my homework work right away when my break is over Try to answer each question or problem at least once before asking for help Keep working until my timer goes off or my homework is finished THEN I CAN CHOOSE ONE FUN ACTIVITY OR REWARD: Play with Legos Build a fort 20 minutes of Minecraft Play outside Pick out a special treat to pack for tomorrows lunch Following these 5 steps to create a homework routine for your child will go a long way in helping to make homework time less stressful for you and your child. Your child will have an easier time getting started on his or her work and staying focused until homework is finished. Plus, your child will be finishing homework more quickly, leaving more time for the fun activities and family time that everyone enjoys! ABOUT DR.

Two Vital Skills your Child Needs - ALOHA Mind Math

Two Vital Skills your Child Needs (Part 1 of 2) The Two Vital Skills Affecting Success in School and Career: Focus Span and Attention Take a moment and think back to when you were in grade school and middle school. You might have had classmates who had the energy and imagination, or the quick wit of actor and comedian Robin Williams, but you, your class, and the teacher were annoyed and frustrated because of the continual ruckus caused in a learning environment. How can it be that one child can have the focus and attention span of an adult and another child the same age fidgets, does not wait their turn, or is easily distracted by every noise and movement? Being Attentive According to the National Institute of Mental Health, http://www.nimh.nih.gov, even though Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD, is common there are no known causes. Not all children who have focus or attention issues have Attention Deficit Disorder, ADD, or ADHD. Children who have symptoms of inattention may: Be easily distracted, miss details, forget things, and frequently switch from one activity to another Have difficulty focusing on one thing Become bored with a task after only a few minutes, unless they are doing something enjoyable Have difficulty focusing attention on organizing and completing a task or learning something new Have trouble completing or turning in homework assignments, often losing things (e.g., pencils, toys, assignments) needed to complete tasks or activities Not seem to listen when spoken to Daydream, become easily confused, and move slowly Have difficulty processing information as quickly and accurately as others Struggle to follow instructions. This information is for educational purposes only, not for diagnosis. For additional information visit the National Institute of Mental Health, http://www.nimh.nih.gov or your family physician or your child’s pediatrician. Next: In part 2 we will examine the issues of focus, being impatient, and hyperactivity.

Children Require Guidance and Sympathy

Children Require Guidance and Sympathy Children require guidance and sympathy far more than instruction. ~Anne Sullivan (1866-1936) Johanna Anne Mansfield Sullivan Macy, better known as Anne Sullivan, was an American blind teacher. She received her education as a student of the Perkins School for the Blind. After graduation Anne became the instructor and lifelong companion of Helen Keller. With Annes help Helen became the first deaf-blind person to earn a bachelor of arts degree deaf-blind girl. Tutors are important and make a difference.

Are You a Helicopter Parent - ALOHA Mind Math

Are You a Helicopter Parent A friend once recounted to me how she was cautioned by her spouse on being “over-protective” as she was hovering over her 4-year-old daughter who was being left out of the ongoing game at a birthday party. It was a bit of a shocker to me, and on browsing the internet that is a favorite source of information; I was introduced to the term “helicopter parenting”. It makes you want to laugh out loud as the coining is so appropriate, but it is happening more and more with parents and children everywhere. Helicopter parenting is a colloquial term coined in the 21st century to describe over protectiveness displayed by parents over their young children. The reference to helicopter is used to describe the ‘hovering’ habit of some parents, wherein they are never out of reach. Keeping children safe is a priority for all parents but, where does one draw the line between being protective and becoming over protective? With all the information available to kids nowadays, and the use of computers from a young age, internet safety is one of the biggest concerns most parents face. Depending on our individual style of parenting we might choose to deal with such situations in our own way. Some may choose internet monitoring tools, while others may choose to only have a frank talk with the child and occasionally monitor their internet use. It is essential for all young children to be taught the concepts of safety using simple instances and terms like “stranger danger”. This will help them understand that there are situations when it is important for them to make a noise and draw the attention of known elders. But at other times where the situation is only something that might bring disappointment, not danger, it may be a good idea for parents to let the child figure out and manage for themselves. In order not to become helicopter parents it is essential to step back from the situation and assess if it would in any way harm the child if you don’t intervene. If the only difference you can make is to protect your child from getting hurt emotionally, then try to look at it as something that will teach him/her to confidently handle things on their own without depending on you each time. Parenting is a big responsibility. It is important to recognize the line between being concerned parents and overprotective ones, to be able to teach your child to be independent and capable of handling any situation they might find themselves in.

What Is Big M in Chemistry? Part 2

What Is Big M in Chemistry? Part 2What is Big M in Chemistry? is a question that many people ask each year. While the real answer to the question is no easy one, the short answer is that Big M stands for Manganese. Big M can be considered to be both the smallest and largest element of the periodic table.When talking about Big M and the other elements, there are actually two different sizes of Big M.? The two are not the same, so when we talk about Big M in Chemistry, it's going to have to be two different sizes of Manganese, one in the first column and the other in the second column of the periodic table.The size of Big M depends on what you are trying to find out, such as where the element is going to be placed on the periodic table or if it is going to be added to another element. These are all determined by the reaction between these two elements.When speaking about the size of Big M, there are two different ways you can look at it. The first way is to take the area of the element with the smallest area and then divide that number of times the length and divide that by the width of the element, and then multiply that number by 100.Once you have this information, it is quite simple to figure out the area of Big M. The answer you get is based on the element's height and width. The best way to determine if an element is actually a good candidate for Big M is to measure its height and width and then divide those numbers by the volume of the element.This is going to give you the percentage of Manganese, which is the answer to the question 'What is Big M in Chemistry?' As you can see, the reaction for the size of the Big M is fairly simple. Just remember to look at both the area and the volume.As long as you are able to convert the data from Manganese to Big M, you can work your way through the reactions that will result in a reaction that makes Big M. It won't take long to find out what Big M in Chemistry is.
