Organic Chemistry Teaching With Video
Organic Chemistry Teaching With VideoThe Organic Chemistry Tutor has a reputation for producing high quality videos. They have hundreds of students and a large following online. Their videos, which they refer to as 'The Slide Show', have earned them quite a following and that reputation for producing high quality is not being matched with their student videos. The tutor has gained such a good reputation due to their consistency in producing quality videos and it shows in their popularity on YouTube.I took some time to do a research about the Organic Chemistry Tutor and how they were able to attract so many students from all over the world. This information is the basis for this article and it should give you a good idea of what you should be doing if you want to reach a similar level of popularity.When I first started out looking for information about the Organic Chemistry Tutor, I thought that they were going to be a large player in the market. They seemed to be a big brand and I fi gured that they would have a great reputation when it came to producing videos that were well received by both teachers and students. I was actually wrong on this one and I was pleasantly surprised when I found out why.The Organic Chemistry Tutor is actually a company based in New Zealand. There are actually three employees who work in New Zealand that focus on producing the videos. The video production company is based in California and produces the videos all over the world. The reason for their seemingly inconsistencies in producing the videos is that the video is made for a specific audience, which is teachers.If you look at the Organic Chemistry Tutor website, you will see a link to the contact page where you can go to get more information about the company or if you want to find out more about the person behind the videos. So, it is very easy to understand that the video production company is located in California and the main person behind the videos is from New Zealand.It is really interesting to see how quickly the Organic Chemistry Tutor has gained so much popularity online. You see, while their videos are highly successful in getting viewers, they are not as successful in getting students because there are so many other teachers out there who use videos to introduce their material.To really push the material and get your message across in such a way that the audience will pay attention, you need to start your video on YouTube Graph. Graph has become a big part of YouTube and basically allows anyone to turn any video into a graph. A graph basically acts as an advertisement for the video itself and allows people to click on the video and then see the Graph for more information.Graph is a great platform and it makes it possible for the audience to learn more about the subject without having to read through paragraphs of text. They can just listen to the audio and the graph will explain everything that they need to know in such a way that they will actu ally remember what they are being taught. So, if you want to build up a large following of organic chemistry students, you should definitely consider using Graph to help spread the word to your viewers.

2015 New Years Language Challenge Wrap-Up!
2015 New Yearâs Language Challenge Wrap-Up! What a great way to welcome the New Year with the completion of the italki 2015 New Yearâs Language Challenge! The Challenge was to complete 20 hours of language lessons on italki in 6 weeks (from January 15th to February 28th) to win a reward of 400ITC! (Click here for the Official rules) Challenge Recap! We did an analysis of this Challenge and it was similar to our previous Challenges (2014 October Challenge, 2014 World Cup Challenge, 2014 New Yearâs Challenge). For this year: 48% of Challengers completed the Challenge! We had Challengers came from all over the world (representing 66 countries). These were the top 5 countries participating: 1. United States 2. United Kingdom 3. Russian Federation 4. Spain 5. Canada Wow! We had over 49 languages that were learned in the Language Challenge. The 5 most popular languages that our Challengers were learning were: 1. English 2. Spanish 3. French 4. Chinese 5. Italian We also had a lot of much greater representation from our less popular languages like: ? Armenian ? Bengali ? Esperanto ? Galician ? Icelandic ? Lao ? Mongolian ? Punjabi ? Tamil ? Telugu ? Urdu ? Zhuang Other interesting tidbits: ? 71% of Challengers who submitted a Public Video Pledge completed the Challenge. Compared to the 48% that finished from all the Challengers, this really helps! ? One hardcore challenge winner completed over 100+ hours (and you know who you are). This is doing more than 2 hours of language lessons a day! Wow! ? 11.5% of our challengers were also Community Tutors or Professional Teachers on italki so many of them were not only learning but teaching during the challenge! ? 3.9% of the challengers just missed winning by 1 hour or less. Ouch. ? Planning ahead pays off! In one of our surveys, 82% of successful Challengers had already chosen a teacher (or teachers) before getting started. They were also twice as likely to have considered their Challenge goal and mini-goals. ? Confidence is not enough. Of Challengers who told us their confidence levels, those who did not finish the language challenge were just as confident as those who did! Plan ahead to create a structure and study habits to help you commit. ? Josie, Karthik and Aime our italki staff completed the Challenge and really improved their Chinese. They all won the reward but their bigger prize was that was they got to keep their jobs (just kidding)! Again, while itâs great that 48% of you that finished the New Yearâs Challenge! We wanted congratulate all the challengers who participated. Even if you didnât finish, we hope that this was a positive experience and it helped you kickstart your language learning for 2015!

What You Should Know About Ordering Groceries Online
What You Should Know About Ordering Groceries Online Image via Pixabay.com Not only can time be an issue when you go grocery shopping, but the trip itself can be tiresome. Who actually enjoys going grocery shopping? Even the people waltzing from aisle to aisle in their Grinch pajamas arent dying with excitement to be in a grocery store. Sometimes, the trips can be downright awful. Finding available parking can be tough, especially if youâre at the one grocery store near campus. You know the one. Every college student decides that is the only store in the city and it becomes the designated spot for students to shop. And if parking is bad, then you know the inside of the store is going to be utter chaos. Waiting in line can take thirty minutes at times, even with the addition of self-service checkout stations in many grocery stores. However, if itâs a busy time of the day, even the line for the machines can wind back into the aisles. Donât get me started on how aggressive people can get while grocery shopping and it happens to be extremely crowded. Iâ ve lost count of the number of times that Iâve nearly been mowed down by old ladies whizzing down the spices aisle with their packed carts. Grocery shopping: itâs a dangerous sport. Naturally, when I heard about ordering groceries online, my curiosity was thoroughly piqued. Ordering groceries online is a relatively fast and new way to bring the groceries you need right to your front door, helping you skip the crowds of other grocery shoppers and time restraints. Many grocery stores have implemented this ordering groceries online into one of the services they offer while other companies have made this their specialty. If youâre interested in ordering groceries online, there are several things you should know before you make that first order: 1. Not every grocery store offers this service. As I mentioned, ordering groceries online is a service thatâs still being introduced in many grocery stores. This service is in the testing stage at some place. Stores want to see if this way of getting groceries will prove to be popular or if itâs something that no one will be interested in. To see if a store offers a way for you to order your groceries online, check out their website and search for an option that will allow you to start adding items to your virtual cart. 2. You might be paying more money Companies like Instacart, an online grocery-ordering service, offer items from grocery stores at slightly higher prices to help cover the cost of the service. Prices for things like eggs, bread, and cheese might be a little more expensive online. Itâs up to you to decide if the increased price is worth the convenience of having your groceries delivered to you. 3. Some stores offer grocery pickup instead Maybe youâve noticed those giant, orange parking lots that have started popping up at some Wal-Marts. Those are the pickup areas. Customers can use their Walmart Grocery app to pick out and purchase goods online. After paying online with your credit, debit, or gift card, youâll select from a list of available pickup times and days. From there, Walmart will notify you when your grocery order has been processed and rounded up by one of their employees. Then, all you have to do is drive into one of the pickup spaces, check in on your app, and an employee will bring your things right out to you. Fun fact: I used this service to pick up two giant bean bags before! It was great! 4. Youâll need to be home if youâre getting groceries delivered to your door This one probably goes without saying but youâll definitely need to be at home if you ordered groceries online and youâre expecting them to be delivered soon. I list this as a âneed to knowâ item because you should factor this into your decision on whether you want to order groceries online or not. Sometimes, the delivery time will change, according to how fast your delivery person is. If you think you have time to run a quick errand but your delivery person arrives at your house before youâve finished, it could cause a problem. Itâs best to pick a delivery time when you know youâll have a few hours where you can be at home. 5. You should tip your delivery person They did a lot of hard work for you! Itâs only polite to give them a nice tip. There you have it! Have you decided if online grocery shopping is the thing for you?

The Chemistry Department at Hunter College
The Chemistry Department at Hunter CollegeThe Chemistry Department at Hunter College is one of the most popular in the country, especially in urban areas like New York City. Unlike some schools where the department may be small or only as large as the major, the Department of Chemistry at Hunter College is a department for the whole Hunter College student body.Chemistry is such a broad subject that you can study it at any university as long as it is related to chemistry. The exact word you will hear is 'academic chemistry'academic chemistry and biological chemistry.' Both these disciplines include chemistry for teaching in classrooms, labs, and lecture halls. However, the exact sciences that are taught in the curriculum are different.If you have taken an undergraduate chemistry course, you may have found out that most of the students who get into chemistry graduate at a lesser level. This is because the syllabus that they use at the major college where they are majors are different f rom the syllabus that they will use in their undergrad.If you took biology courses, you will find that your science classes are slightly more challenging and you will probably have to take remedial chemistry if you are not prepared for this. After you take science classes, you may have to take a similar type of chemistry class to follow up with that course. The Chemistry Department at Hunter College has six different science courses, which they offer in a bi-weekly basis.These chemistry courses for biology majors are the following: A Physical and Biological Chemistry, Computational and Quantum Chemical Chemistry, Physics of Nature and Applications, Biochemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and Molecule Structure and Functions. The chemistry department covers all the sciences necessary for a good university and they offer a lot of supplemental courses, based on the classes that the major and minor course students take. The department also offers a first-year course on organic chemistry. Th is is something that is offered every year at every university.The department has thirty class numbers in all, and each class number has ten to fifteen students in it. Some of the class numbers have no seating on the floor and some have seats in the gymnasium. Each class numbers class has a corresponding chemistry department sign and they have each of their students sit down at their assigned class number when they sit down for their respective chemistry class.In addition to the other chemistry courses that they offer, they also offer four different majors: Biological Engineering, Medical and Clinical Chemistry, Applied and Computational Chemistry, and Computational Analysis and Science. All of these different departments provide students with a full range of scientific knowledge that includes anatomy, botany, geology, biology, chemistry, physics, and all the rest of the sciences of nature.

10 Ways to Memorize French Vocabulary Fast
10 Ways to Memorize French Vocabulary Fast Megan L. Many students struggle with memorizing vocabulary in a foreign language. Tutor Joan B. shares her tips for learning new words in French fast Is memorizing vocabulary in French holding you back from speaking fluently and confidently? Recalling vocabulary can be one of the hardest parts of learning a language since the words often seem strange to us and the richness of a language means that there are many words to memorize. Use the following tips to decode vocabulary memorization so you can memorize French vocabulary fast. 1. Get to the Roots Memorize words that share the same root at the same time. For example, when you are learning the word écrire (to write), you can also learn écrivain (writer) and lécrire (the act of writing). This means you will increase your vocabulary exponentially, and words and their meanings will stick more clearly in your memory since youre learning the whole family of words at the same time. 2. Know Your Cognates Make a list of French/English cognates (words that sound the same and share the same meaning in both languages). Once youve identified some cognates youd like to learn, write them on a piece of paper in two columns (one for French and one for English) and quiz yourself by folding the piece of paper vertically in half. Test your ability to produce both the English meaning and the French word. Make flash cards for the ones you dont know, and after quizzing yourself with the flashcards, do a final test with the paper again, making sure you are able to give the French equivalent of the English word. 3. Practice With Your Textbook Most language-learning books have illustrations to introduce vocabulary. Looking at the illustrations, try to describe them using the vocabulary you already know or have studied, and then read the captions underneath the pictures to see how well you did. Notice how the vocabulary words are used in context. 4. Three is a Magic Number If youre really struggling to retain vocabulary words, write each French word three times in French and once in English. Then write the French word again without looking back at what you have just written. Check to see if you have written it correctly. 5. Listen and Repeat Often you can find digital recordings of vocabulary words, pronounced in French and in English (either as part of your textbook or independent of it). Try listening to these once, then repeat each word in French while listening to it a second time. There are many great French videos on YouTube that can help you memorize vocabulary and practice listening and speaking. 6. Use it in a Sentence For each vocabulary word, write a sentence using it. Try to choose a memorable sentence. Context is often a key element in remembering new vocabulary. 7. Make Associations Make associations with words you are familiar with in English. An example of this is the French verb rencontrer. While it means to meet or find, another meaning is to encounter. Create the association between these two similar words so you will be able to recall the meaning and the word itself in French. 8. Word of the Day Choose a word of the day each day. If you have a week to study for a test, or if you set a goal to memorize a list of vocabulary by the end of the week, you can reinforce your vocabulary study by singling out each word. Each day, take the word you have chosen and write it on a few post-its with or without its English equivalent. Place the post-its in places you will see them throughout the day, like the bathroom mirror, the monitor on your computer, or in your planner. You will see the word many times as you go about your day, and by the end of the day it should be permanently ingrained in your memory! 9. Write it Down If your goal is to increase your vocabulary rapidly by quickly memorizing additional words in French, keep a notebook of words youre not familiar with that you encounter in class, in books you read, and in conversations or talk on the radio that you hear. Having a written record of words you are learning allows you to review and track your progress. 10. Do it Daily Make it a regular part of your day. The key to learning vocabulary rapidly is studying it regularly. It doesnt have to be a long time; just a few minutes, each day, can make a huge difference in your retention of the words you learn. Studying vocabulary sporadically isnt as valuable because you may forget the words if you dont review them frequently and consistently. Learning vocabulary can be difficult, but it is well worth your time. A richer vocabulary allows you to communicate more fluidly, understand others and express yourself fully. With these ways to memorize French vocabulary fast, you should be recalling and using new vocabulary in no time! Get more help with your French by working with a private tutor.
