Produce Error Free Draft English Writing Online Tutorpace

Produce Error Free Draft English Writing Online Tutorpace Errors in a draft confuse the readers and the intended meaning does not get conveyed. Errors usually undermine the authority of the writer too. Hence it is essential to have drafts free from errors. The common errors that occur in a draft could be classified into grammar and punctuation. The most common grammar error to look for is the subject-verb agreement. Not only the subject and verb must agree in number but the subject and the pronoun should also agree. For example: Everyone was asked to bring his or her contribution. In this sentence, the subject everyone is singular but the verb are is a plural verb. Therefore it should be Everyone was asked to bring. Since everyone is singular, the pronoun their is wrong. Therefore, the correct sentence should be, Everyone was asked to bring his/her contribution. Further more, the writers should watch out for shift in tense and compound subjects while writing. However, there are ways and means of producing error free drafts. First of all if the writers use a computer, they could use the spelling and grammar checking in the system itself. In addition, the writers could read aloud to listen and recognize the mistakes if any. They could also avail of the help of their friends to go through the essay in order to find any errors that they have missed in their draft.

Quem disse que burro velho não aprende línguas

Quem disse que burro velho não aprende línguas Image courtesy of Juan Gnecco / FreeDigitalPhotos.netHá um ditado popular que diz que burro velho não aprende línguas, dando a entender que, a partir de uma certa idade, deixamos de conseguir assimilar novos conhecimentos. Contudo, é possível notar que cada vez mais surgem cursos voltados para aqueles que se encontram na terceira idade. Possivelmente porque estímulos mentais contínuos permitem uma menor degradação das funções cognitivas, mas também porque, hoje em dia, entrar na terceira idade não é o fim do mundo. Aliás, para muitos, é o início da fase da vida na qual, finalmente, irão viajar e conhecer o mundo.Um estudo publicado na  Neurology ®  revela que idosos que tenham um bom nível de instrução, que se exercitem uma vez por semana e não fumem têm mais probabilidade de manter a saúde das suas funções cognitivas. Tal como manter o corpo em atividade permite que este e o cérebro beneficiem, manter a mente trabalhando também é necessário para garanti r uma maior qualidade de vida. Daí que cada vez mais idosos procurem atividades que estimulem o cérebro, como é o caso de cursos de idiomas.Se prestarmos atenção às publicidades de cursinhos de Inglês tradicionais, podemos verificar que muitos são os que já abrem turmas para a galera nessa faixa etária. Essa é uma tentativa válida de fazer com que mais pessoas se interessem por aprender uma língua estrangeira, sem se sentirem desconfortáveis com os olhares curiosos dos mais novos. No entanto, em uma era na qual os idosos aprendem a navegar na internet tão facilmente como as crianças, um bom número de pessoas prefere aulas online. Dessa forma, não precisam se adequar ao ritmo de uma turma, mesmo que essa turma seja de pessoas de idades semelhantes à sua.Por isso, ter aulas online pode ser bastante benéfico para aqueles que estão na melhor idade, pelo fato de as aulas serem preparadas de acordo com o objetivo de cada aluno, o que permite que a pessoa foque nos pon tos que acredita serem mais importantes para o que pretende fazer, como viajar, por exemplo.

Learning Chinese on italki Ken

Learning Chinese on italki Ken Here is another story of an italki member learning a foreign language with a teacher online.   Ken is from Osaka, Japan and spends a lot of time traveling for work, therefore he needs a flexible arrangement for learning Chinese. [Translated from Japanese, original is below.] I joined italki almost 2 years ago. I started online lessons at the beginning of this year. In Japan the fee of the language lesson is extremely expensive, and it is easy to forget everything if you have only one lesson a week, so I chose italki where I can learn everyday with local teachers.   I initially did the trial lesson with several teachers. Now I study with only one teacher. [I chose this teacher because] she is very kind when she teaches and she also generously spares her time, even very early in the morning. [I started learning Chinese because] I wanted to talk more with my Chinese friends.   I feel that I progress day by day. Taking lessons everyday makes it easier to review the contents of the previous lesson and remember things more clearly. [As for learning online,] recently, Skype has been working well, so theres no such a big problem if you use it with video. Im kind of an idle fellow, so it offers better condition to study continuously rather than to study by myself.   Im hoping italki will continue to make a user friendly system,   and I expect them to succeed!

3 Things to Put on Your Student Resume

3 Things to Put on Your Student Resume Writing a Student Resume: 3 Things to Include In the past, most people didnt put together a resume until the semester before they were getting ready to graduate college. These days, students should be prepared to have a resume by the time they’re 16 or 17 years old. Student resumes are extremely important in order to gain internships, part-time jobs in their field, or to apply to university. Many high school and college students dont know what to put on a resume because many of them havent had a paid job. Here are the top three things students should put on their resumes. 1. Volunteer experience Volunteering is a job that people don’t get paid for. Just because a student didnt earn money doing volunteer work, doesnt mean that they cant put this valuable community service on their resumes. Students who have consistent volunteer work in one field will have resumes with a more streamlined look, demonstrating continued commitment. As a result, students who are choosing their volunteer work for this year or this summer should consider doing as many hours in one area as they can. For example, if somebody participates in two hours of peer tutoring, two hours at the homeless shelter, and two hours at the animal shelter, this leads to quite a jumble of experience on the resume and may lead potential employers to think that the student can’t stick to one thing. A student who is interested in education should consider volunteering at a peer learning center for the entire summer. This way they can add this as a legitimate position on their resume. 2. Extracurricular activities Students who participate in a club after school, especially students who founded or co-founded a club, should definitely include this information on their resumes. If somebody started an anti-bullying club, an art club, or exercise club, its important that this is explained in detail on their resume. This may be handed to a university admissions department, to an employer offering an internship, or even a paid job (READ: Extra Curricular Activities For Your College Resume). 3. Personal interests Seasoned professionals leave little to no room for personal interests on their resumes. In general, adult jobseekers do not wish to blend their personal and professional lives. However, in the past, having a personal interest outside of one’s field made a candidate appear more human and more personable. Interests are particularly important for jobs that require good social skills (READ: College Prep: When Your Teacher Throws You a Curveball). Including an interest section is even more important for students because these activities may consume a large part of their day. If a student is especially interested in playing piano but doesnt play in an official club, they can still discuss their love of music and appreciation of the piano. This may even inspire students to provide a few volunteer piano lessons to the underprivileged community or to volunteer to play piano at a local organization, essentially turning their interest in piano into a legitimate position. Its important that a student resume is both comprehensive and concise, can fit all necessary information on one page, and is easy to read and understand. Its a good idea for students to consult a professional in their prospective field or a private English tutor. Anyone looking at a resume should be able to understand exactly what is written, no jargon should be used, and the language should be entirely formal. Anyone out there who has reached their 16th birthday but still doesn’t have a student resume would be advised to put one together so that whenever the right opportunity arises they can send this important information to a prospective employer or internship opportunity at the click of a button.

Sexting for Sexs Sake

Sexting for Sex's Sake Courtesy of Lies Through a Lens and Flickr.com Dont: Send a picture of any skin the day after getting someones number. If you do, the person will likely think youre easy, or worse, a slut. Do: Send a picture if your partner has explicitly (visually or verbally) let you know its fair game. However, the picture should be classy enough that you dont reveal yourself completely, but risque enough to make a heart race in anticipation. Dont: Talk dirtier than you could reasonably do in person. You dont want to give the wrong impression and then let the other person down when they find out youre about as freaky as a priest. (Which, come to think of it, may be a poor point.) Do: Attempt to instill some excitement in your partner for your next meeting. If its past 9 p.m. and the conversation is getting cold, warm it up by saying how sore your neck is, and how you wish you could have a massage, perhaps without your shirt on, and see where that teaser takes you. Dont: Sext other people when youre already going steady with someone.  (Ahem, pathetic relative who Im happy to announce is not related to me by blood). I dont care if you dont plan to ever do anything but sext them. Would you want your partner sexting another person? No! you damn barbarian. Do: Sext if you havent seen your mate in a while. Spice things up a bit by building eagerness for the next time you see each other. If its been some time since youve swapped more than stories, chances are your partner is horny and will take pleasure in your sextuality. Dont: Save pictures of your partner. In the long run, nothing good comes of that. Do: Ensure your partner erases all incriminating images of your own flesh. In the long run, nothing good comes from that either. Dont: Sext while in the same room, you weirdos. Do: Sext so hotly that you cant resist being in different rooms anymore. Dont: Show other people your virtual sexcapades. Its very off-putting. If you think it shows how cool you are, youre horribly mistaken. Remember that (almost) everyone in the world has sex at some point, so if youre doing it, youre about as unique as a Honda Civic. Do: Use something from your sexting conversation to get the ball rolling when youre with your partner again. For example, ask about that time they revealed that thing they wanted to try, and use that as a launching point for some steamy dialogue. If youre in a car, dont be alarmed when you suddenly cant see through the windows. Now before you start getting sextual, feel free to comment with the freakiest sext you ever received. Dont be shy, ya freaks.

What exactly is an ESL instructor, anyway

What exactly is an ESL instructor, anyway The Teach Away job board can get a little confusing when similarly titled positions call for totally different qualifications. If you’ve browsed our website in search of an ESL instructing position, you may have noticed a variety of positions with different sets of requirements. I’m going to clear up some of the confusion surrounding ESL positions. If you’re a licensed teacher or recent grad looking for an opportunity abroad, this should help you in your search.Due to the fact that we work with such a high number of schools and education organizations around the world, “ESL instructor” has taken on a fairly broad meaning on the Teach Away site.In some cases, an ESL position will require only a bachelor’s degree. These positions are for university graduates looking to go overseas to teach English as a second language.Other ESL instructor postings will list a bachelor’s degree and “ESL Instructor” in the requirements. In situations where “ESL Instructor” is listed as a credential, the hiring school or organization is calling for candidates who are TEFL, TESL, or TESOL certified. These positions are also suitable for university grads, as long as they are ESL certified.ESL Instructor positions on the job board may also refer to openings for fully licensed and experienced teachers. These are listings by schools or organizations who looking to hire professional teachers to teach English as a second language. These positions may also combine with other teaching roles (eg. Math & ESL Teacher - Private Language School).  See our current ESL positions here.
