Often these are what separate “good” teachers from “bad” teachers.
I personally think most teachers are burdened with perfectionism, thinking they have to be perfect in front of their student to be a ‘role model’. They have to know all the answers just because they are the teachers and they feel embarrassed to be (or admit to being) wrong.
I had been running into arguments with teachers from the 2nd grade all the way till 11th grade (which was my final year of high school).
1. Be honest with students
I remember a high school teacher of mine who was assigned as my public speaking mentor told me this during our first meeting — “I…
Does spending time on Instagram necessarily have to be a time wasting act? Can I swipe Instagram but still be productive? If you have a skill you want to learn, you can learn it by spending time on Instagram!
But how?! Hear me out…
I am a Computer Science major and a freelance photographer. But in the same time, I am also very interested in design. I don’t spend much time on social media at all during an ordinary day, but sometimes I still fall into the trap of swiping through Instagram. I couldn’t resist not going through Instagram for…
He now has time for family and friends
I want to get straight to the point with what I actually taught him instead of baiting you to it. I taught my friend how to journal and schedule. I told him to journal every night before going to bed. It was something foreign to him. However, I felt it was necessary to be pushy about it, for his good.
The Situation
He was in that trap of diving his head deep into all sorts of projects. The impression you get of him from living in him is that he is always busy. The people around him often say that they feel…
They disappear if you do
According to a recent study, a person typically has around 6,200 thoughts per day. If you are awake for 16 hours (you probably shouldn’t be awake for more than that), that is 388 per hour, 6 per minute, or a new thought every 10 seconds. That is quite a lot of thoughts if you ask me. Out of all those thoughts that make their appearance in your mind, whether as a cameo or as a protagonist taking up center stage, how many of them do you actually remember?
Going back with the film reference, have…
You can only subscribe on their website
If you have ever tried to sign up to a Netflix subscription using your mobile devices, you have most likely realized that they don’t allow you to sign up in the app.
This is to keep you safe on the Internet *shoosh*
Everybody is using the Internet. Everybody is nagging you about how dangerous the Internet is and how privacy is no longer a thing. Everybody is nagging you about how having the same password on every one of your social media accounts is not a wise choice. But most people either don’t do anything about it or have no idea what to do about it.
So here I am to help you keep yourself safe on the Internet. Here are the three apps you need. …
And it is very important to know yourself, isn’t it?
It is important to know yourself. I am not speaking in the broad sense of knowing who you are. I am talking about knowing how you function as a person. In what circumstances do you perform best? And in what circumstances do you perform worst? A racer has to know every little detail going into his or her car to make the best use of it. A photographer has to know all the specifics of his or her gear to make the best use of them as well. In the…
Calendars and to do lists are essential to time management and making sure you get things done. However, calendars and to-do lists are very often used very separately even though they really should be two pieces of the same thing. For example, when you need to clean your dishes at 4pm, do you add it to your to-do lists or calendar? If you add it to your to-do list, if just feels strange seeing your calendar telling you that you are free at 4pm. If you add it to your calendar, it just feels strange to see that your to-do…
