Various Types of Tutor Doctor Careers

Various Types of Tutor Doctor CareersWhen I was in school, one of the reasons why the phrase 'clinic technician' always came up was because most of the student were either working part time or full time at the clinics. With that said, there are many different types of tutor doctor careers. Below is a listing of some of the most common career paths, including both clinical and inpatient treatment.In the American Society of Clinical Pathologists (ASCP), as a junior doctor you are required to specialize in pediatric surgery, pediatrics, or cardiology. After completing your internship program you will be required to pass an examination and receive a master's degree in pediatric surgery. Upon completion of this exam, you will have passed the second step of the ASCP certificate program, which is titled 'Surgical Consultation for Pediatric Patients'.After completing your internship and residency in the medical field, you will need to take the board exams in order to qualify for registration in a medical school. This board exam will give you an overall view of your academic performance and will set the foundation for what your future career will be. You must take an exam in order to get your certification as a registered nurse (RN). After your examination you will be awarded a Certificate in Nursing.If you are already in training and are looking for a career in the medical field, you may want to think about going on to become an assistant or associate doctor. The two of these career paths are often referred to as nurse practitioner and physician assistant. Once you have completed your education and completed your pre-requisites, you will need to register with the medical board and obtain your certification.Once you have completed your high school education and have received your General Education Development (GED) card, you will be able to apply for your first employment opportunity. You can begin working as a clinical nurse specialist or family nurse. While working as a clinical nurse specialist, you will provide diagnostic and therapeutic care for patients who are experiencing medical problems.On the other hand, if you have a bachelor's degree or higher and wish to work as a family nurse, you will need to complete a graduate level program, called the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNPP) program. In order to become a family nurse, you will need to complete a bachelor's degree program, which will be based on the curriculum that is provided by the National Association of CNA Programs. In order to become certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner, you will need to pass the National Council Licensure Examination CNA-C.Finally, if you would like to work as a nurse practitioner, you will need to complete a graduate level education program. Like the program that is offered by the National Association of CNA Programs, the nursing schools that offer the graduate level educational programs that allow you to work as a nurse practitioner require that you pass the NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN examination. On top of that, you will also need to complete a specific course, which is referred to as the Graduate Nurse Practitioner Course, to qualify for licensure.There are many different nurse practitioner careers, but the most popular are those that provide care for those who are suffering from a chronic illness or have suffered a major injury. The most common of these jobs are those that are located in clinics, such as the one in the movie Community, or those that provide care in a hospital setting, such as a nurse practitioner who works in the operating room. In many cases, you will also be able to work in the community as a nurse practitioner, as there are many communities where the need for family nurse practitioners is not as great.

Teach Away Telegram - November 2014

Teach Away Telegram - November 2014 Join us for a Twitter chat with one of our Placement CoordinatorsWe’re very excited to announce that on Thursday, November 13 from 8 - 9 pm GMT, we’ll be holding a live Q&A on Twitter with our Placement Coordinator, Alexandra Capistrano. She’ll be taking over the @teachaway Twitter account for 1 hour.Alexandra has been working as a Placement Coordinator with Teach Away for just over a year. Before that, she was teaching abroad herself at a conversation school in Okayama, Japan, and was an Assistant Language Teacher at a private high school in Matsuyama, Japan. She loves to travel and has been to the UK, Ireland, Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Morocco, South Korea, and the Philippines. As one of our Placement Coordinators, she is currently working with private schools in Abu Dhabi, Macau, Saudi Arabia, and Kazakhstan. When she’s not finding the best candidates for teaching positions overseas, she’s either assuming her duties as the resident Teach Away DJ or sharing cute dog p hotos with the office.Our Twitter Q&A will be your chance to ask Alexandra anything to do with teaching overseas in one of the countries she focuses on, or about her own personal teaching experience.To participate, all you have to do is tweet us your question by including the hashtag #askteachaway. Alexandra will retweet the question before she tweets her answer, that way everyone can follow the Q&A.If you’re not on Twitter, click here to sign up. Once you’ve signed up, or if you already are, just follow @teachawayMake your next Skype interview a successThe Teach Away job board currently has more than 100 jobs posted for both ESL and certified teachers that reach every corner of the worldâ€"and for a number of these jobs, the schools have requested at minimum a remote interview with candidates. If you’ve never had a remote interview before, you may make the rookie mistake of thinking that because you’re not meeting in person, you don’t have to put the same amount of though t and preparation into it. Make no mistake: Skype interviews require the same effort. Here’s how you can make a great impression, even from a distance.Clean up your surroundings and minimize distractionsBefore your interview begins, make sure you’re going to be in a quiet room that’s free of distractionsâ€"for both you and the interviewer. Pick a room with a door so that you can minimize interferences from other family members and can shut out other household noises. It’s also important to let everyone else who lives with you know that you’ll be participating in an interview and need to conduct a distraction-free meeting.Set up your computer so that the wall behind you is clutter-freeâ€"a neutral background is best. A clean, organized space will show your interviewers that you too are an organized and thoughtful person.Keep a professional profileThough you might think that with a Skype interview, your first impression will involve you, you’re wrong. Before you connect fo r your video interview, your interviewer will be seeing your Skype username and your profile picture. Before you provide your Skype details, make sure that you’ve chosen a profile username and picture. If not, create a new one. Skype is free afterall!Dress the partAs we mentioned, many people interviewing for a teaching position abroad might be inclined to dress casually. Don’t! Psychologically speaking, getting dressed up professionally from head to toe for an interview makes you feel more professional. There's lots of evidence that shows the way we dress affects how we feel not only about ourselves but about our work, so stepping out of pajamas for an hour will help get your mind in a more professional mode. Go the whole nine yards: wear more professional slacks as well, even if you think your interviewer will have only a waist-up view of you.Practice makes perfectIf you’ve used Skype to visit with long-distance friends or family, you’re likely familiar with the awkward qu estion of where to look. This will be no different during your interview. The best thing for you to do is just practice your interviewâ€"better yet, record it if you can. Observe where you’re looking as you play the recording back for yourself, and try to train yourself to look at the camera instead of your own reflection on the screen.Show your interviewers that you’re presentWith long distance interviews, giving signs of life are sometimes necessary. Technology isn’t always perfect, and sometimes with slower internet connections Skype has video lags, so showing your interviewers that you’re still actively listening and participating through more verbal cues is helpful. Try to use simple words like “yes”, “right”, or even an “mhmm” to let everyone know that you’re still tuned in.Make yourself a cheat sheetIf you think you’ll feel more comfortable or prepared with notes in front of you, go ahead and make yourself a short cheat sheet with some point form notes . You can keep these in front of you but out of the way of your camera to refer to if necessary. But don’t fall into the trap of reading aloud verbatim: familiarize yourself with what you’d like to say in general, and make sure your notes are easily scannable so you don’t have to spend time studying them during your interview.Prepare to problem solveTechnology can be tricky, so be prepared to address any technological glitches like a weak connection, or interference or feedback. The chances are, if the problem is annoying you, it’s likely that it’s annoying your interviewers as well, and you don’t want to risk answering the question inappropriately because you didn’t hear the question in the first place. Although you might be nervous to draw attention to the problem, being quick to acknowledge the problem and find a solution shows that you’re a problem solverâ€"always a desirable quality in a teacher!Manage classroom behavior with ClassDojoThe creators of ClassDojo a ptly named their tool after a formal training place. Well-suited for any K-12 classroom, ClassDojo helps teachers improve classroom behavior through a comprehensive award system that awards merits or demerits in real-time to students for various behaviors.Since statistics show that teachers spend on average more than 50% of class time managing behaviors, ClassDojo aims to inject more instruction time back in to lessons by engaging students in behavior management.Students can earn points for demonstrated good behaviors like working hard on a specific task, asking thoughtful questions, and being cooperative or helpful with other students. When they’re awarded points, a pleasant noise lets them know so. Bad behaviors such as time wasting and class disruption lose students their earned points and a different, less harmonious noise lets them know. Whatever device teachers have available to them can be plugged into speakers for the rest of the class to participate in the process. Report s can even be generated and shared with parents to engage them in the process.ClassDojo works with any classroom, any device including regular web browsers, and is free for teachers. Try it today!City spotlight: Astana, KazakhstanAstana, the capital city of Kazakhstan, is known as “the city of the future,” though only 15 years ago, it barely existed. With little surrounding development for 1,200 km, Astana was quickly developed to look like something from a science fiction novel, with a skyline that boasts many futuristic structures.With so many remarkable buildings in one city, you’ll have no shortage of sights to visit. Architect Norman Foster designed many of these structures, including the Baiterek Tower, nicknamed “chupa chups” by locals because of its resemblance to a giant lollipop. Standing at 100 meters tall, it’s a great site for city views, and also houses an aquarium, a restaurant, and an art gallery. Another must-visit location is the Khan Shatyr, the worldâ €™s largest tent at more than 10 football stadiums in size, which features a giant shopping mall, an amusement park, an indoor beach, and even its own monorail.With a climate of extremes, having an indoor city like the Khan Shatyr proves helpful. In the summer, typical days can reach up to 30 degrees Celsius, while the winter months, the temperature can reach as low as -40 degrees Celsius, making it the coldest capital city in the world.Astana wasn’t always the capital of Kazakhstan though. Seven years ago, President Nursultan Nazarbayev decided to move the capital from Almaty, a city in the southeast, to Astana, which was previously home to not much more than a gulag prison camp for Soviet traitors. This allowed for a lot of modern development to be erected quickly, and the population has more than doubled to reach 750,000 since 1997.As a nomadic nation, Kazakh people appreciate wide open spaces and congestion isn’t such a concern in the city. For hundreds of years, Kazakhs her ded sheep, horses, and camels. This nomadic way of life has influenced their cuisine as well since herders relied on these animals for transportation, clothing, and food. Meat in various forms has always been the primary ingredient of Kazakh cuisine, and traditional cooking methods rely heavily on boiling. Local tastes do allow for variety though, and everyone will find something to enjoy when going out to eat.  If you are looking for a new international adventure that will take you off the beaten path, but still like the comforts of city life, Astana might be the place for you.

Unit 5 Chemistry Test Answers - How to Read Them

Unit 5 Chemistry Test Answers - How to Read ThemUnit 5 Chemistry tests may be hard to pass. In fact, you could have a test taker looking over your shoulder trying to guess what the answer is for each question. Well, to find out the answer to this one test question, you really need to know how to read a test and how to read the answers.Here's a helpful tip that will help you in getting the correct answer, and in saving yourself the frustration of knowing that you are going to have to re-take the test when you fail the first time. Most tests are turned in at the end of the day, and therefore you have to get the test back and start over from the beginning if you have a failing grade.Fortunately, there are several different forms of tests that are taken at each level of the testing, and so the format of the test will usually be the same. These include the Genethis series of tests, which consists of ten basic subjects and there are two more complex tests, a no-pre-test and an elective tes t. The test section on unit 5 Chemistry will consist of three sections with a section for each question.At the start of the test, you will be given a set of questions, and then the answers for each question. It will generally consist of some sort of multiple choice or fill in the blank types of questions, and you should then be given the option to change the answer to the incorrect question.So, the first section will be on the different elements that make up our body. This is called the First Form of Chemistry Test, and it will focus on different topics that are important to the basic human anatomy, and the structure of the body. The second section will be on how to control fire, and the third section will be on the Second Form of Chemistry test.Now, with all these new questions, you will need to find out what the answers are, but you will also need to get answers to the correct questions in order to pass the test. If you have a failing grade, you will be given the option to change your answer, and this will likely include changing your choice to the correct answer. The good news is that if you do get it wrong, you can simply get it correct the next time you take the test, which will help you save some time.I would recommend taking the test a few times, and getting a guide to reading the test, and the answer choices that you have available. This will ensure that you do not have a problem in terms of failing the test and having to take a new one.

Heterocyclic Chemistry

Heterocyclic ChemistryHeterocyclic Chemistry is a subfield of chemistry that are concerned with a class of compounds that contain more than one chemical element, and it can be subdivided into two major types. These are I) chemistry of h- and ii) chemistry of p- compounds.Chemistry of h- is the only type that is considered a branch of science, though not all of the scientific community considers it that way. This type of chemistry is focused on the development of compounds that contain an aryl ring. Many of the compounds produced in this field have properties that are similar to those of the substance that the aryl ring is supposed to replace.Heterocyclic Chemistry as a subject, however, is different from other chemistry because it focuses on individual substances and their properties that can't be found in any other compound. The focus of this type of chemistry is generally more restricted to the process of creation rather than the individual substances that are used in it. Chemists usually find that it is best to create compounds that have very little to do with each other.The process of creating a compound that is unique is usually accomplished by using a particular kind of laboratory apparatus known as a cyclohexane-adiabatic column. This column allows for the addition of small molecules to the surface of the sample in a controlled manner so that the ratio of those molecules can be altered in a certain way.Because the mixture of different molecules must be manipulated, they must be prepared correctly or else the whole experiment would fail. When trying to make a compound that has properties that are different from the ones of another substance, the manipulation of each of the ingredients is done at the same time. The properties of the compound is altered to match the properties of the rest of the compound. This usually results in a compound that is more stable than the original compound.The only thing that separates the methods used to make a compound from t hose used to create a single compound is that the former require much more time and effort than the latter. Although, since this method is a fairly expensive one, many chemists prefer to focus their energies on making a series of compounds instead of a single one.Heterocyclic Chemistry as a subject has always been one of the oldest branches of Chemistry. It was one of the first ones to be categorized under a single branch of Chemistry, which is what makes it a much more difficult area to get a grasp on. Chemists from the Victorian era up until today still consider it one of the hardest of all subfields of Chemistry.

Easy Guitar Songs Learn to Play Like David Bowie

Easy Guitar Songs Learn to Play Like David Bowie Maile Proctor The best way to celebrate the life of music legend David Bowie is to remember his impact and play his songs. Here, guitar instructor Matt K. teaches you  to play five easy guitar songs that Bowie made famous...   The recent passing of rock n roll icon David Bowie  sent a shockwave through the world. Bowie’s music and message meant so much to so many people. He had the talent to remain relevant within the entertainment industry since his big break with Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars in 1972. He created 27 full-length albums, appeared in over 20 films and television series, and was a part of countless collaborations. He also wrote the famous “All the Young Dudes” for Mott The Hoople, just because he liked the band and they needed a hit to prevent them from breaking up. From Life On Mars to Lazarus, his music is a major reason why many, including myself, picked up an instrument and began to play. You can find the rest of the tab here. Ziggy Stardust Ziggy Stardust was David Bowies alter ego that catapulted him to success in 1972. This was when the American public was first truly introduced to David Bowie.

How to Evaluate a School for Your Child

How to Evaluate a School for Your Child The following piece was written by Liz Perelstein. Liz has been featured in ourAdmissions Expert seriesand is the Founder of School Choice International. As we anticipate the spring, you may be evaluating your child's progress during the past year and deciding what kind of school would serve your child best in the coming years. The options can be overwhelming: Public Schools Local public schools Specialized public schools Private Schools Independent schools Parochial schools Boarding schools Distance learning schools Specialized private schools (which may include: international schools, special education schools, and schools for profoundly gifted children) As you peruse this list, I imagine you are surprised by the number of alternatives you have when considering your child's education. Hopefully, this will alleviate some of the tension parents often feel as you begin this journey. In order to direct your search, begin with a thoughtful evaluation of your child. Has s/he had a good year or one in which s/he struggled, either academically, socially or emotionally? Did his or her school experience bring out the best in her, and contribute to his spirit to explore and consume knowledge? Has he developed social skills that will allow him to make friends and navigate social groupings in a new school? Would she benefit from an opportunity to reinvent herself in a new school? Pay attention to factors that make your child's schooling experience what it is. Are classes large or small? Is the classroom structured or do the children learn by doing? Is the school coeducational or single sexed? Is it close to home or does it require transit? Does it emphasize athletics or the arts? Based on her personality, interests, and emerging skills, which characteristics are important for your child's education? I would imagine, by now, this list has automatically been narrowed down; some options simply don't fit. If your child exhibits separation anxiety, for example, boarding school simply isn't an option. But for an independent child whose homework is a nightly contest, boarding school can change the entire home dynamic. Your school list probably should include options in various categories public and private, day and boarding for you and your child to compare and contrast. Don't automatically assume cost is prohibitive. Private schools offer need based, and sometimes merit based, financial aid. The most important way to assess a school is to visit. Make appointments for school tours and go to open houses. Talk to other parents and students you meet in the cafeteria, but keep in mind that every child is different, and what works for their child may not be the best choice for yours. In public schools, parent advocates are incredibly helpful sources of information. If you don't know any parents whose children attend a particular school, request a list of parents you may call. Ask questions beyond test scores and admissions difficulties. Questions should be based on your childs profile. Ask questions that will help you decide whether your child will thrive or struggle based on his or her unique characteristics. Finally, encourage your child to reach for schools that may be selective both in the public and private sectors. You won't know until you try. If your child isn't accepted, this can be a great learning moment be sure to be a positive role model and handle wait lists or rejection with compassion and a problem solving attitude. On the other hand, never put all your eggs in one basket. If you limit your search to a few schools, be sure that you and your child would be content to remain at his or her current school or the local public school.

5 Weird Tips for Learning Spanish That Really Work

5 Weird Tips for Learning Spanish That Really Work Suzy S. Have you tried everything to improve your Spanish speaking skills? What about  singing your vocabulary? In this article, tutor  Dorothy P.  is going to show you some unorthodox  techniques for learning Spanish that actually work Beginning to learn a new language is fun! You’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain. But what if you’ve taken lots of classes or worked with a Spanish tutor for a while, and you still feel like a beginner? What if you’re that “eternal intermediate,” frustrated because you can’t up your game enough to really converse? As an experienced Spanish tutor, I’ve seen this a lot. But learning Spanish, or any other language, isn’t just about memorizing flashcards and studying grammar: achieving fluency also depends on developing positive emotional and physical behaviors. I’d like to share some of my student-tested behavioral techniques to help you locate your resistance points, and develop new language-learning habits to break through to the next level. 1. Before class: Practice the yoga of language. Well, okay, maybe it’s not high-level yoga, but these simple exercises contribute to mindfulness and relaxation at the start of every language-learning session, either with your tutor or at home before studying. A relaxed body encourages a relaxed mind, and a relaxed mind is a receptive mind. First, stretch: Try the sunrise/sunset pose. From a standing position, raise your arms high in the air and then bend from the waist, allowing your upper body to dangle toward the ground, breathing deeply. Release your breath slowly, allowing your head and hands to fall closer to the floor with every out-breath. When you’re feeling chill, sit down in your chair, and sit up straight and smile. Good posture makes you more alert, and smiling actually makes you happier. And happy people are more receptive to new information! 2. Before class: Do vocal warm-ups in the target language. Want your Spanish to sound like… Spanish? Vocal warm-ups before your learning session tune up your tongue so your castellano is more convincing. The music of Spanish comes from the characteristic way vowels and certain consonant combinations sound. Start with long vowel emissions: a, e, i, o, u   the Spanish versions, of course! Then try some Spanish tongue twisters, beginning slowly for accuracy and then saying them faster and faster. After challenging yourself to tongue twisters in your target language, speaking normally with your tutor will seem a whole lot easier! 3. In class: Consciously employ positive reinforcement. I don’t know how many times one of my students has made an error and then made it worse by wailing, “I always make that mistake!” Guess what? Negative affirmations won’t move the needle one millimeter forward.  Slapping your forehead in frustration and saying, “I can never remember that word!” is a great way to teach your brain that it can’t learn. Instead, when you make a mistake, use positive enforcement by receiving your tutor’s correction and then pausing to say out loud: “I always get (whatever the thing is) right,” or “Now I know the preterit of tener is tuve,” or whatever is applicable to the lesson at hand. Also, when you say something beautifully and correctly in the target language, take a victory lap! Successes should be celebrated and reiterated: repeat your successes many times to reinforce correct speech patterns. Ask your tutor to hold you to a gold standard of positivity, and to point out to you when you’re displaying negative patterns. 4. In class: Finish your thought â€" by any means possible. Not all tutors agree with me on this idea, but I believe that developing the habit of finishing your thoughts by any means possible is a creative language-learning practice. So if you’re missing one key vocabulary word to complete a thought, simply finish your sentence using a real object, a gesture, or even a word in English in place of the word you don’t know. Then, when your tutor suggests the word you were missing, repeat the sentence, adding the new information. This way, you train yourself to keep talking, which is one of the key characteristics of fluency. Also, by practicing this method, you move the classroom discussion along, and quickly help your tutor understand what you need to know. Remember: To learn any new language and to communicate in the real world, the only wrong answer is silence. 5. Anytime: Can’t say it? Try singing it! Yes, I’ve saved the weirdest technique for last, and no, you don’t have to be Pavarotti to try it! Did you know that when stutterers sing, they dont stutter? That’s because singing uses a different part of the brain (the right side) from speaking (the left side). When I discovered that interesting brain fact, I immediately applied it to my teaching.   Now when pronunciation problems come up in a session, my student and I sing the word or phrase. Soon, we’re both laughing, and what was an obstacle is now a piece of cake! On your own time, sing verb conjugations or vocab lists while jogging or walking. Make up your own melodies or use a favorite pop song. This is a great way to reinforce the sound of your target language when you’re practicing at home and have no one to talk with. And finally, dont underestimate the importance  of working with a private Spanish  tutor! One of the biggest benefits of private lessons  is that you don’t have to put up with boring and ordinary. You don’t have to be a wallflower in a big group. You drive the goal-setting in your class, and you can also, to some degree, drive the method. Try some of these techniques with your tutor, and you’ll see: you’ll be “stuck” no more. Post Author:  Dorothy P. Dorothy P.  teaches Spanish and writing  in Durham, NC.
