8 super useful tips in teaching beginner esl lessons online & it is not w...Daniel DiDio
First, beginner ESL lessons can be tricky for “Solo” teachers when teaching them online. Mistakes happen so don’t beat yourself up about it and focus more on the student, not the material. I know you want to make a great first impression with the parents and the student. I’m a little stiff for the first few lessons so stay loose and have fun.
This is professional speaker Steve Maguire's 1/2 day staff training event for the Old Colony YMCA at the Whitman Middle School in Whitman, MA. This session covered many topics including... customer service, verbal and non-verbal communication, goal setting and the reality of working with families and kids.

GU101 Student Success
Scenarios for Discussion Board Week 2
Scenario #1:
Amaya
Amaya is a 40-year old female who lives with her four children in her mother’s home. She is a single mother who works one full-time job Monday-Friday and works part-time (8 hours) every Saturday at the local supermarket. Her children are 11, 9, and 6 (twins). Her mother is retired and takes care of the kids when they get home from school. Amaya gives her mother money to do the grocery shopping (etc.) during the day when the kids are at school, and her mother cooks all the meals.
When Amaya gets home every day, she eats dinner, helps the kids with their homework, gets them to bed, and then begins her homework around 9:00 at night. She usually can get to bed around 10:30 at night, and she studies every night. She enjoys her online discussions, and she has been able to apply some of what she is learning to her job. She counts on Sundays to do massive work on her papers – except last Sunday was the twins’ birthday, so she didn’t do any work and did not submit her paper. Amaya figured she would finish it as soon as she could.
Yesterday, while her mother was carrying laundry to the washer, she slipped, fell, and broke her ankle. It was her right ankle, and she cannot put weight on it or drive. Although she has crutches and can get around the home a little bit, she is now unable to grocery shop, do laundry, and cook.
Amaya opted to stay in her course. She has not told her professor or her advisor what is going on because she didn’t want to sound like a complainer. She now has taken on all the household responsibilities, is working the same amount, and often cannot begin her homework until midnight. She is beginning to fall behind and is hoping she can hang on and earn some type of passing grade.
Scenario #2:
Bob
Bob is 24-years old and married. His wife is 6 months pregnant with their first child, and she is a librarian at the neighborhood elementary school. Bob is excited to become a father! He currently has a salaried position as an assistant manager at a large retail store he started working at when he was 16 years old, but the company will not promote him to any higher position (manager or above) until he has his degree in business.
Even though his company is paying for him to go to school, he has begun his degree only because he feels he has to do it, and he resents being in school. He does the minimum work possible and spends as little time studying as he can. He didn’t like high school even though he graduated with a 3.3 GPA.
Recently, business at the store has picked up significantly, and Bob has been required to work longer hours. When he finally got home last night around 8:30PM, he found his wife in bed, and his in-laws were there. He learned that his wife had been put on bed rest for the rest of her pregnancy, and his in-laws, who lived 10 minutes away, were there to offer support and help out with whatever they needed.
Bob talked to his wi ...
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.

What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
1. The little kid that could
By: Gerardo E. Cruz Echevarría Sección- 036H
There once was a kid that was 9 years old and he
lived in Puerto Rico. He went to school and he was
always bored. He didn’t pay attention in class and he
didn’t do his homework either. One day when he was
returning from school he let a big sigh as he came in to
his house.
2. His dad heard him and said “What’s wrong?” The kid
replied “Why school is boring and do I have to go there?”
His dad gave him a smile and told him that school is a
3. necessity that everyone must go through because
otherwise he would not making out in the real world. If
his dad hadn’t gone to school then he obviously would
not have gone to college and earned a job that he loves
and enjoys every day. So the father asks what interest
the kid the most. He said “Computers.” His dad said
“Then how do you think computers where made if no
one went to school? They wouldn’t exist right? Now if
you really want to work with computers you need to gain
the skills thought in school so you can study what you
like and finally get a job doing what you love.
4. So from then on the kid was dedicated to his studies
because he knew it would pay off in the end and it would
be to benefit him completely. After he understood this
perfectly he quickly started having fun learning and
making the most of his experiences at school.As he grew
up he started having fun learning all by himself even.
5. The years passed and he was an adult now. He was
working part-time as a computer security consulter for
airplanes and was a full-time student all before the age
of 25.So let this be a lesson, that if he had not studied
hard from the beginning he would have never gotten to
where he is now.
The End
6. 1. Do you think listening to his dad's advice help
him?
2. Do you think he could have reached the same job
by not going to school?
3. Is he truly happy of the professional adult the kid
has become?
