How many driving lessons to get a provisional driver’s license?

admin — Sat, 19 May 2012 08:23:48 +0000

I was wandering, how many driving lessons with a instructor do I need to qualify for a provisional driver’s license? Or how many hours of lessons/time with instructor ?

In the UK none.

You get your provisional licence before you’re allowed anywhere near the driving seat of a car.

How To Complete Sample Lesson Plan for EPIK Application?

admin — Thu, 17 May 2012 08:06:19 +0000

My husband and I are working on filling out our application for EPIK so we can teach English in South Korea in the fall. Part of the application requires us to create a sample lesson plan. They have a guide, but they offer no information regarding what we are supposed to be teaching in our hypothetical lesson plan, etc. I’m a little bit at a loss as to how to start. Has anyone else done this or are there any tips for this portion of the application?

Middle School or High School teachers and their lesson plans. Is there a website were I could look at some?

admin — Sat, 12 May 2012 10:18:10 +0000

I want to be a English Teacher. I’m starting the program that helps me with my teaching skills and etc. I want to look and study some teachers lesson plans. Another question.

Do teachers get to choose the type of students they want to teach? Because I’m a Pre-AP student and AP student. The classes are really calm and awesome. Regular classes are a little rowdy & out of control. I would like an AP class.

Now, unfortunately I cannot give you the full details because I am a student as well, but being an AP student myself, I know a little bit from watching the attitudes of teachers (and internet sources). Yes AP is voluntary, but most likely the principle or school board will approach you to teach it. You need to complete a syllabus.

Now, I am an AP Math student, but a "regular" English student (Long story short, I wanted to be in AP English but the class was full. A shame.) and I disagree completely! Now I do realize you were generalizing, but I still hold on to this argument. There is not much difference from an AP class and a regular class. In AP, people still try to skip work and there is a lot of talking (usually not constructive), the only thing that’s different is the average is going to be higher. They happen to be more respectful. It depends mostly on the teacher. If you are a slack teacher, unfortunately, teenagers will walk all over you. And noticing recent interns and their strategies, it seems as if they are being taught to be strict the first day so we understand you are an authoritative figure and then be best friends with us the next day, so we respect you. That doesn’t work, just going to give you a heads up. Now, if you are strict and have CONSEQUENCES for people not getting their work done, or being late, suddenly students might look at you a bit differently, even students in regular classes. Also, respect takes time. Thus my rant has ended and I hope I provided a different perspective for you. Sorry for teaching you things you probably already know. Just wanted to stick up for us "regular" kids!

Also, lesson plan link!

How to make a lesson plan for homeschooling?

admin — Sat, 25 Feb 2012 14:00:20 +0000

What are the things/subjects i should be learning for homeschool? Im in 9th grade and i dont know what should i be studying. And how long should be studying the topic before i go on to the next? Should it be for the whole quarter or half of it? And how to make a lesson plan for the subjects. Any tips?
Thanks xx
And im not doing this alone. My mom helps me, but we both are confused.

Are you associated with some sort of formal home schooling group? If so, they should be providing your textbooks and materials and coordinating activities with other home schoolers. I believe that they also inspect the room used at home which is the dedicated school room. It is my understanding from a from a friend who home schools that it can’t just be the kitchen or bedroom. You need to be in active contact with the home school organization that you choose. I would think that you would be taking some of your work online so that you get proper indepth instruction in high school subjects. Otherwise, you may not achieve your goal of a high school diploma.

I’m glad that you aren’t doing this alone since your mother is legally responsible to supervise your work and provide instruction. Contact your group and get the support that you need.

Math lesson plan, any advice welcome.?

admin — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 09:12:45 +0000

For an education orientation class I’m in I need to have a 15 minute lesson in the subject and level I’d like to eventually teach at. So, with that being said I need an attention-getting 15 minute lesson in junior high/high school math. I was looking to do something unique to make math look as appealing as possible. Let me know of some inventive math lesson plans that you’ve got!

What I would do is do a lesson on construction with a compass and a straightedge. If you have enough compasses and straight edges. You could construct an equilateral triangle.

If you don’t like that suggestion try factoring or foiling.
(w - 3) (w + 3) = w^2 - 9

r^2 - 6r + 9 = (r - 3)^2 and so forth.

How many voice lessons do you have to have to hear a significant improvement in your singing?

admin — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 02:48:28 +0000

I’m starting voice lessons this Saturday. There is an audition for a musical in a few months that I’m really interested in, and the role isn’t the easiest to sing (I’m a fairly good actress, though, so I have that going for me). People have told me that I have a good voice, and I can hold a tune. I don’t know anything about proper volume, breathing, etc. How long could it take to really improve? Can I do it in a few months?

Yeah, you’ll be fine. i improved in a few months with voice lessons, so you’ll be fine. All you need to do is practice the techniques your teach shows you and REALLY pay attention. If this is something you want bad enough you will be able to do it. Good Luck! & I hope you get the role you’re aiming for!

How much money should I charge for piano lessons per hour?

admin — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 04:34:29 +0000

I am 17 and a senior in high school with 11 years of piano experience(I am quite good). My dads friend wants me to give his son lessons once a week but I have no idea how much money to charge! I am not a professional, so I don’t want to charge too much. I’ve taught children piano lessons before but they were for volunteer hours. I was thinking $20 for a 30 minute lesson. Is this reasonable, too much, too little? Please tell me what you think!

It’s your time that you’ll be spending, so charge what it’s worth to you. If you view your time as that valuable, I’d say $20 is perfectly reasonable.

What are some important life lessons you learn in high school?

admin — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 02:53:48 +0000

In my 12th grade english class, we have to make a speech about 3 life lessons we have learned and than tell a story to go along with it.
So far, I have the lesson that you should not take anything for granted. What else can I put? any ideas?

dont tell your problems to people… 90 percent dont care and 10 percent are glad you have them… high school is full of back stabbing bitchess and imnmture people…

EDITT: but also, life is all about taking risks… It doesnt matter the outcome as long as you tried
