Volunteer Spotlight CJ Langley, HEART volunteer at Billingsville - Heart Math Tutoring

Volunteer Spotlight â€" CJ Langley, HEART volunteer at Billingsville - Heart Math Tutoring Volunteer Spotlight â€" CJ Langley, HEART volunteer at Billingsville Volunteer Spotlight â€" CJ Langley, HEART volunteer at Billingsville November 28, 2013 Several months into his new role on EnPro Industries’ accounting team, an invitation from a colleague caught C. J.’s attention. “Well create teams to cover a weekly tutoring commitment in support of students who need help. Who wants to ‘give back’?” his colleague Paul Pathikal advertised at an ice cream break one afternoon. “It really confirmed my decision,” C. J. says of his recent career move. A product of public schools himself, from Jacksonville NC to UNC-CH, C. J. was intrigued by this opportunity to support the community. He remembered weekly visits to the library with his aunt and cousins during summer breaks that kickstarted his desire to read as well as his psychology studies at UNC-CH where he completed an Honors thesis on gender differences in African American students’ attitudes towards education. HEART Tutoring would provide an opportunity to see and shape this, firsthand. When C. J. was introduced to his third grade HEART Tutoring student, he was nervous. “Kids are so honest!” he explains. He quickly saw that Jazmine, although several years below grade level in math, had much potential and simply needed more support. As weeks passed, Jazmine became demonstrably more enthusiastic about learning and unabashedly excited to work with C. J., asking, “When are you coming? Next Wednesday?” C. J. says working with Jazmine makes him grateful for the support he received from his family growing up. Just a few weeks ago, he sent a text to his mother and aunt thanking them for nourishing his scholastic growth by challenging him academically. In the office, EnPro colleagues enjoy sharing reports of their students’ progress and treasure the deepened perspective gained through service each week.

What You Need to Know About the ACT Math Section

What You Need to Know About the ACT Math Section ACT SAT Prep and College Admissions Blog The ACT Math section tests math skills that every high school student should have. Even if you think you are good at math, it won’t be a walk in the park, and even if you think you are bad at math, it won’t be impossible. It will test not just what you already know, but your ability to figure things out on the fly, so memorization and practice are both a necessary part of the preparation process. Format While the other multiple choice sections on the ACT have four answer choices, the questions in the ACT Math section have five. You are allowed sixty minutes to answer sixty questions, but this doesn’t mean that each question will take a minute to answer. The questions span a range of difficulties, so some you will be able to answer quickly while others will take longer Instructions While each version of the ACT will have different questions (you won’t see the same questions if you take the test more than once), the instructions are always identical. On test day you should already know the instructions for each section by heart so you don’t have to spend time reading them. These are the instructions for the Math section: “After solving each problem, pick the correct answer from the five given and fill in the corresponding oval on your answer sheet. Solve as many problems as you can in the time allowed. Do not worry over problems that take too much time; skip them if necessary and return to them if you have time. Calculator use is permitted on the test. Calculators can be used for any problem on the test, though calculators may be more harm than help for some questions. Note: unless otherwise stated on the test, you should assume that: 1. Figures accompanying questions are not drawn to scale. 2. Geometric figures exist in a plane. 3. When given in a question, “line” refers to a straight line. 4. When given in a question, “average” refers to the arithmetic mean.” Problem Types There are two types of math problems on the ACT, Basic Problems and Word Problems. Basic problems are written out in mathematical symbols and equations and are self-explanatory. Word problems are written in words and sentences. In order to solve word problems you have to be able to translate them into mathematical formulas. Subjects The content of the problems in the Math section is taken from the following subjects: Pre-Algebra Elementary Algebra Intermediate Algebra Coordinate Geometry Plane Geometry Trigonometry Note that AP subjects like calculus and statistics are not included. Just because you have taken more advanced math classes doesn’t necessarily mean that you will have an edge on this part of the exam over someone who hasn’t.

Part heart-rending, part inspiring, this little seal sanctuary is just one of the highlights of the aquarium, which is located in the conservation village of Portaferry. Portaferry sits on the shores of the Marine Nature reserve of Strangford Lough, which contains more than 70 per cent of all of the marine species in Northern Irish waters - making it the ideal place to see and learn about an amazing array of sea life. Take a tour of the discovery pools to observe rays, starfish and sea urchins close up - experienced guides will be able to tell you all about the creatures. The open sea tank holds an impressive 250 tonnes of sea water and is where you'll find lots of deep water creatures, from household favourites such as cod, turbot and halibut to more scary examples like sharks and conger eels.

Job Search 101 Skills You Didnt Even Know you Had

Job Search 101 Skills You Didnt Even Know you Had Job Search 101: Skills You Didnt Even Know you Had Job Search 101: Skills You Didnt Even Know you Had With so many college students graduating right now, there are also a plethora of job applicants. Many new grads find that they are limiting themselves to a very miniscule pool of jobs when, in reality, their skills may span across several fields. For instance, many broad fields, such as English, communications, psychology, and business allow a person to demonstrate skills that can be used in multiple areas if youre considering graduate school, contact one of our Orange County grad school admissions consultants. 1. The written word Anybody who has become familiar with how to appropriately use the written word (such as a communications or English major) may have skills to offer any number of companies. For example, there may be an engineering company that needs a full-time proofreader for all of their publicity and inter-office communications. Most English majors wouldnt even consider applying to an engineering company, but their skills may be of high value if they think outside the box. 2. Working with people Its extremely crucial in an office or social work environment to be able to work well with all different types of people. This is something where a Psychology degree can come in handy. Many new grads in this field, or a similar field, are encouraged to look at any job ad where interpersonal skills are a high priority. Even if a few skills are missing, an applicant can ask to start as an intern so that they can get some on-the-job training or start in a more supportive capacity until they learn the few practical skills needed to fill out their resume. Many new grads forget how important it is to be able to work well with a diverse group of personality types amongst their coworkers and supervisors (READ: Cover Letters Dos and Donts (List). 3. Know your Numbers Somebody in a more specific field of study, such as engineering, may remember that they took a large number of advanced math classes that they had to ace before they could move onto their more specific engineering courses. There are a lot of companies out there that need somebody with superior math skills to go through their accounts, work in payroll, or handle the companys budget. Math is one of the two core subjects, and any student who has excellent math skills will be able to apply them to an amalgam of jobs outside of their specific major. 4. The business of everything Business majors can apply their skills to, well, any business. There is the business of education, the business of finance, the business of sales, the business of research and development (you get the idea). A business major can apply their skills to any number of fields if they are willing to think outside the box. Can they help local start-up companies make a five-year plan to increase sales by 20%? Can they help a financial institution find ways to save money so they can keep valuable employees? Can they assist local charitable organizations with advertising so that donations are increased? The answer to all of these is ‘absolutely’. Someone who has a good head for business can apply the skill to any number of specific fields and companies. Although a new grad may need an internship or two in order to understand the inner workings of different companies, their skills serve a broad client base (READ: Tips From a San Diego College Consultant: Job Skills: Office Communication). In short Although many new grads find that searching for a job in their specific field may be a little bit frustrating, they are encouraged to think outside the box. Its important not to limit oneself to a job title that is listed on their college diploma, but rather think about how their general list of skills could serve any number of employers and companies. The more creative and flexible a new job seeker is, the more likely they are to land that first full-time entry-level position. In the process of applying for a job?
