Pearsons Language Test for English Language Leaners (PTE)

Pearson's Language Test for English Language Leaners (PTE) Hello Everyone! I hope that you are having a wonderful day! Many ESL students want to know if Pearson's English Language Test is comparable to the TOEFL? Well, many people agree that there are pros and cons to both tests; however, with the PTE test one can get his or her scores back in half the time as soon as five days! WOW! That is very quick; also, with the PTE test there is no room for human error on evaluating the Speaking section, because everything is done entirely online. However, on the TOEFL exam during the first part of the Speaking section you are actually stating your answer aloud to someone. As we all know, sometimes there can be bias without actually knowing or being aware of it. Please look at both tests before you make a decision or if you can afford it, then quite simply take both of the exams! That way you have a better shot at getting a score that you deserve. Also, remember that the older you are the harder it is to learn a second language. Please study hard for several hours a day and thoroughly prepare for either of these tests!There are study workbooks available online through Amazon or you may order from a Barnes and Noble bookstore if you prefer. Also, if you need tutoring on either of these tests do not hesitate to contact me!Yours in ESL,Tracey Pogue/ ESL Instructor

SUCCESS IN KUMON INSPIRED THIS YOUNG STUDENT TO EXCEL IN THE POOL

SUCCESS IN KUMON INSPIRED THIS YOUNG STUDENT TO EXCEL IN THE POOL SUCCESS IN KUMON INSPIRED THIS YOUNG STUDENT TO EXCEL IN THE POOL Haley, 14-years-old, Math Level N, Reading Program Completer Michael Phelps, the most successful and decorated Olympian of all time, once said, “You can’t put a limit to anything. The more you dream, the farther you get.” Just like Michael Phelps, Haley had an interest in swimming, but the sport didn’t necessarily come naturally to her. She wasn’t always the fastest swimmerâ€"often having slower times compared to her teammates. Instead of giving up, Haley compared the obstacles she was facing in swimming to her experience in Kumon. You see, Haley enrolled in Kumon when she was just six years old and now at 14, she can say she’s studying way above her peers. In fact, she completed the entire Kumon Reading Program, which ends in analyzing the work of Shakespeare, in the 6th grade and she’s currently studying advance algebraic expressions in the Kumon Math Program. It wasn’t always easy for Haley, but she recalled the grit, determination, focus, and goal setting that she used to advance through Kumon. â€" “Beyond academics, Kumon has really helped me with swimming,” said Haley. “When I first started swimming, most of the kids were much faster than I was. Seeing positive results from the hard work I put in daily at Kumon, motivated me to work hard every day at my swim practices. Like Kumon, I then saw a huge improvement in my swimming. My speed increased and I was invited to swim at more competitive meets.” Haley’s hard work and discipline has paid off both in the classroom and in her swimming. With her stroke of choice being breast stroke, she is proud to say she made the varsity swim team in her freshman year of high school. Haley has walked away as a medal winner from the Central California Junior Olympics, and swims for the Santa Barbara Swim Club in their senior group. When she’s not in the pool, Haley can be found singing in the school choir and playing the piano and guitar. She has even found a talent and enjoyment in composing her own music. In 2016, Haley achieved the Level 4 certificate of merit in voice and piano for The  Music Teachers’ Association of California ®. In 2017, she went on to achieve Level 5 in voice, and is currently training for Level 6 in voice. This program provides young musicians a curriculum to strive for excellence in areas such as performance, technique, sight-reading/singing, ear training, and music theory. While Haley is still unsure on a future career path, she has a great passion and interest in skincare. She can see herself owning her own business that specializes in skincare. Haley’s hard work and discipline didn’t go unnoticed, as she was one of 55 students selected to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference in Calgary, Canada. We had the opportunity to speak to Haley about her Kumon journey. How has Kumon helped you academically? Kumon has helped me go from being a kid in elementary school who sometimes struggled with math, but now in high school, I am in advanced math classes. The concepts being covered in school aren’t difficult to me anymore, since I’ve already worked through them in Kumon. If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be? Persistence How has Kumon helped you outside of the classroom? Kumon has helped me with setting long-term goals for myself. If I ever find myself working on anything challenging, I break it up into smaller pieces â€" making it much easier to take on and complete. What did it mean to you attending the Student Conference? Attending the Student Conference was such a great experience! It was amazing meeting other students who have worked so hard and have had so many accomplishments. What advice do you have for other Kumon Students? My advice would be to take your time and be patient. It’s a lot of work, but if you stick with it and remain patient, you will see the benefits.

How Kumon Can Help a Good Reader Become a Good Writer

How Kumon Can Help a Good Reader Become a Good Writer How Kumon Can Help a Good Reader Become a Good Writer With the widespread use of shorthand communication as a result of emerging technologies and society’s reliance on spelling and grammar checking tools, emphasis on?writing?well is slowly declining. At the same time, excellent writing skills are becoming more essential for young people to have, as evidenced by the changes to public school education and inclusion of the Free Response portion in Advanced Placement exams. In order to become a good writer, your child must first become a good reader. Reading introduces your child to different genres, new vocabulary and different styles of writing. It also exposes him to better writing than his own in order to help him improve. Here are three ways in which the Kumon Program can help your child become a better reader and, thus, a better writer. Understanding the Mechanics of Writing In order to become a good writer, a student must first understand the basic mechanics of writing, from using the proper punctuation and capitalization to organizing sentences in paragraphs with a purpose and supporting details. By helping students view words as part of sentences and sentences as parts of paragraphs, the Kumon Reading Program helps to build a grammar-based reading fluency, which can ultimately help them to develop into a better writer. Building Reading Comprehension The Kumon Program aims to help students learn to read critically. The Kumon Program incorporates a diverse variety of literary works in order to broaden each student’s academic horizons. This includes excerpts from fiction and nonfiction writing. As children progress through the Kumon Program, they will gradually build their reading comprehension skills, which in turn can transform them into better writers. The better a student’s reading comprehension is, the more likely the child will want to read for their own enjoyment and understanding. The student who reads frequently will be exposed to elements of goodâ€"and badâ€"writing, and will be able to use these elements in their own work. Exploring Literature The?Kumon Recommended Reading List?is an excellent resource to explore literature and texts that your child may not study in their regular classroom. The Kumon Recommended Reading List includes an excellent selection of works from Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winning authors like Harper Lee and John Steinbeck, and works by Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Ernest Hemingway and Jane Austen. In addition, the reading list is organized by Kumon Reading Level to help you easily identify the appropriate books for your children. The more a child is influenced by great writing, the more likely he or she will develop into a better writer. In that sense, it is important that children are exposed to a variety of literary texts to help them develop into better readers and writers.

What Is Surface Area In Chemistry?

What Is Surface Area In Chemistry?What is the surface area in chemistry? The answer is, the area in the chemical reaction is used to determine if a compound is a good catalyst for another. This is the reason why reactions are often many different steps, as the surface area is very important to help.Consider the example reaction where water is taken to be H2O, and then it is vaporized and condensed. How can you use surface area to help you determine if this mixture is a good catalyst? A surface area calculator is one tool that will give you an estimate of how many molecules you would need for this reaction to occur. So, you could calculate the number of molecules, and then divide by the surface area to give you the percentage of surface area. The next step is to see if you have the right number of molecules for the reaction to work.Although this is not the best example, it does point out how important surface area is to today's day. Although it is generally accepted that oxygen reacts with water at a temperature of about 100 degrees Celsius, there are other reactions that make use of surface area. Some examples of these are:Other uses of surface area are to create more efficient materials, and more rapid processes. These uses of surface area are how things like fuel cells work, and how cars operate when they have an exhaust pipe that will pass through a metal pipe, and make use of surface area. There are other uses of surface area, such as the way jewelry is shaped so it can better attract and hold a shape.So, what is the surface area in chemistry? When it comes to products, this is the area in which the rate of reaction, and therefore the products, can be calculated. Many of the reactions are very complicated, and using calculations, it is possible to figure out just how much is needed to complete the reaction.Surface area is also used in research and other activities. It is used in a number of ways, and different chemical reactions will require different areas for the calculations. This is why it is important to have the proper tools, and why most chemists and scientists will do calculations using a calculation software program. This will save them time and allow them to focus on more important things.So, what is the surface area in chemistry? Surface area is the surface area of a substance in a chemical reaction. Therefore, it can help you determine if a reaction is going to be a success, or if it is going to lead to a waste product. This is what can give you some insight into how things really work.

4 Steps to Getting Your Chemistry Certification in Less Than Two Weeks

4 Steps to Getting Your Chemistry Certification in Less Than Two WeeksSo you have decided to take on the challenge of taking on a Chapter 7 Assessment Chemistry. Yes, I know you do not want to pay thousands of dollars to a chemical engineering degree program but I have some great news for you. You can quickly and easily gain your chemistry certification by working a few hours a week in the lab. In this article, you will discover the four steps you need to take if you are serious about getting your chemistry certification.Get yourself prepared for your chemistry exam by taking a few basic classes online or at your local community college. This is the very first step. Read the guidelines in your state and make sure that you are able to understand them and that you know the necessary textbooks. Take a few extra math and reading courses. A couple of math courses can really help.Now, how do you get your hands on some classroom time in the lab? You can start by looking at your options in t erms of specialized schools. Make sure that they are approved by the National Board for Certifying Agencies (NBCA). You will need a special type of permit or license to work in a school.Testing often includes working under the guidance of an experienced lab instructor. That means that you will need to find a certified and licensed laboratory instructor who can work with you during your preparation. It is also important to find a supervisor who is well-trained in the proper techniques of Chapter 7 assessment. You must be sure that the person working with you understands what you need to do as well as the expectations of a successful examination.The final step is to get those assignments out to the lab. Prepare yourself by reading up on any part of Chapter 7 Assessment Chemistry that you don't understand. This is a very complex subject that needs to be well-prepared.Take the test questions to the lab and don't worry about being correct. In fact, it is a good idea to actually check you r answer sheet against the class discussion, the textbook, and the lab manual. It is only after you finish answering the test questions that you should stop looking at your answer sheet. When you stop checking your answer sheet, the test writer will no longer be checking it!As soon as you take the test results, check to see whether you passed or failed. At that point, you will have a certificate showing that you have taken the exam and met the requirements. Congratulations!
