Organic Chemistry Tutor Charles Baxter Fired Over Evolution And Creationism

Organic Chemistry Tutor Charles Baxter Fired Over Evolution And CreationismCharles Baxter, was an organic chemistry tutor in the Washington DC Public Schools. Mr. Baxter was popular with his students, because he enjoyed helping them learn organic chemistry. However, when he was asked to resign from his job, he was terminated due to his beliefs in evolution and creationism.That's right, Charles Baxter was asked to resign for teaching his students about evolution and creationism in his charter schools. It's all so unfortunate that it happened, because Mr. Baxter is a great teacher, who always tried to make the students laugh. He never tried to push a specific ideology or religion on his students. Although he believed in both of those things, it was a personal belief that he didn't tell the students about.When Mr. Baxter asked the superintendent to let him teach his students about evolution and creationism in his charter schools, he was told that he was not allowed to do so. The princip al of the school said that evolution was against their faith, and it was something that the school was 'not prepared' to teach, and because of that, they were not going to allow Mr. Baxter to teach it. It's unfortunate that Charles Baxter had to go through this ordeal, but as a matter of fact, he is not alone.Many charter schools in Washington D.C. have policies that do not allow teachers to discuss religion and evolution. For example, a charter school in Washington D.C. is one which is currently under litigation, because the students who attend it are trying to prevent a biology teacher from discussing creationism, and evolution. In the Washington D.C. case, a federal judge said that it was 'unconscionable' for the students to prevent the biology teacher from teaching his subjects.In this area, it seems as though the charter schools are actually discriminating against the evolution and creationism subjects. You see, evolution and creationism are two subjects that the teachers at th ese schools believe in strongly, and they say that those subjects are not taught at their schools. However, the students do not. It's a philosophical disagreement.Charles Baxter was not allowed to teach his students about evolution and creationism in his schools, because of his personal beliefs. If he had been allowed to teach, then it would have been OK to teach what he believed in. But in this case, the school is not permitting any discussion of evolution and creationism, because they feel that it's a 'distraction' from the religion of the school. The school is taking an extreme position, and in fact, it is not allowing evolution and creationism, because they do not feel that they can do so without being offensive to their students.Charles Baxter was not given an option. It was one or the other. It was either evolution or creationism, and they did not choose his choice. They chose his beliefs, and that is very unfortunate, but Charles Baxter chose his beliefs and should be free to teach his students about those subjects, but unfortunately he is not.

FAQs About the SAT Subject Tests

FAQs About the SAT Subject Tests The SAT is common terminology among college-bound teens and their parents, but not everyone is as familiar with the SAT Subject Tests. What do you need to know about these exams? Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we receive at Huntington to get you up to speed: How are the SAT Subject Tests different than the regular SAT? The SAT Subject Tests are high school-level tests that reflect high school curricula. They indicate a students readiness for college-level courses in specific subject areas. The SAT is focused on the skills and knowledge learned in high school and what students need to succeed in college. It has a Reading Test, Writing and Language Test, Math Test and optional Essay Test. What subjects are tested by the SAT Subject Tests? There are 20 SAT Subject Tests in five areas: Mathematics (2), Science (3), English (1), History (2) and Languages (12). How often are these exams given and can you take several at once? SAT Subject Tests are given six times a year on the same days and at the same test centers as the SAT, but not all 20 tests are offered on every SAT date. The Language and Listening tests are only offered in November. Although students can take up to three Subject Tests on a test date, they cannot take SAT and an SAT Subject Test on the same day. When should my child take the SAT Subject Test? After completing the area of study, sign up for the next available test date to take the Subject Test. Did the SAT Subject Tests change with the recent redesign of the SAT? No. For now, the College Board says that the SAT Subject Tests are staying the same. Do colleges require the SAT Subject Tests? Some do, but not all. SAT Subject Tests show colleges that students are ready for specific programs of study or certain courses or majors. The College Board lists institutions that have indicated that they require, recommend or consider the Subject Tests in admissions. Visit https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat-subject-tests/about/institutions-using. Of course, its a good idea to check with a college directly as well. Why should your teen consider taking any SAT Subject Tests? The most obvious reason is if the college to which your teen is applying recommends or requires Subject Tests. However, even colleges that dont require SAT Subject Tests might accept them and use them in admission to get a more complete picture of your teen as an applicant. These tests are a great way for students to showcase their strengths and strongly express an interest in specific programs or majors. Whats the best way to prepare for the SAT Subject Tests? These exams are based in high school course work, so the best way to prepare for them is to keep up in school. If your teen is struggling through a particular subject, a Huntington tutoring program will help him or her catch up and get ahead, which is a great foundation. We can also help your teen get familiar with the test and study strategies for success. Huntington offers one-to-one prep programs for students taking the SAT Subject Tests.

ACT Exam Prep Calendar

Your Teen’s Summer SAT/ACT Exam Prep Calendar School may be out for summer, but if your teen is college bound in a couple of years, this is a perfect time for him or her to study for the SAT or ACT. Its difficult for most teens to put in the kind of time they need to during the school year to study effectively for college entrance exams, says ElieenHuntington, Co-FounderandCEO of Huntington Learning Center. However, with school on break and many extracurricular activities on hiatus, summer gives teens the opportunity to focus on exam prep. To encourage teens to make the most of their studying and stay on track, Huntington offers this two-month study schedule: Month one: Get familiar with the exam(s) by taking an initial evaluation test. Choose either the SAT or ACT based on the results of the evaluation (and any college preferences). Identify strong and weak areas and develop a targeted study plan. Create a study schedule by exam section and sub-section. Based on the outcome of the initial evaluation test, some sections may require more or less attention. Study a few days a week according to a customized prep schedule. Get familiar with different problem types (multiple choice, student-produced response questions, improving sentence questions, etc.) Month two: Take a full-length, timed practice test at the beginning of the month. Delve more deeply into the different exam sections, targeting weaker areas. Continue to study a few days a week according to a customized prep schedule. Improve on question types where the lowest practice scores are received. Adjust the study schedule as needed based on weaker sections. Work on exam time management by learning the structure of the exam and building skills such as quickly ruling out obviously incorrect answers. Spend time learning how the exam you are taking is scored and adjust test-taking strategies and pacing accordingly. Take a full-length, timed practice test at the end of the month. Make sure your teen also registers for the exam early. For both the ACT and the SAT, registration deadlines are approximately four weeks before test dates. Here are the 2018-2019 exam dates: SAT ACT August 25, 2018 September 8, 2018 October 6, 2018 October 27, 2018 November 3, 2018 December 8, 2018 December 1, 2018 February 9, 2019* March 9, 2019 April 13, 2019 May 4, 2019 June 8, 2019 June 1, 2019 July 13, 2019* *No test centers are scheduled in New York for the February and July test dates.

The Worst College Majors for Your Future

The Worst College Majors for Your Future Infographic by Danielle Wirsansky One You Are Not Interested In A bad mistake to make is to major in a field that you are not really interested in. Why is that? For one, you are not going to enjoy your classes. Can you really endure 4 years of classes doing something you do not particularly care about? Which leads to the question, can you then go and spend the rest of your life doing it, day in and day out, too? Majoring in something you are not interested in is also very boring. More than not enjoying it, you will be bored out of your mind as you will not really be engaged with what you are doing. Can you fathom a lifetime of being bored? Another issue is that when you are not engaged with your work, you do not work as hard at it. You want to be successful in life, and a large part of that does have to do with your career. And to be successful in your career, you have got to work hard at it. How hard can you work at something you do not really care about? This leads us to… One Based On Income Another factor that you should not let control your decision of what to major in while in college is the projected income you will make at that job. Note the word choice of the previous sentence. A major’s financial viability should not, at the end of the day, control your decision of what career to have. But it is okay to let it influence it. You want and have got to be doing a job that engages you and that you can not only bear but withstand working your entire life at. Yet you also want to make sure that you can afford to take care of yourself and live at a comfortable level. No one likes to struggle. Maybe your dream is to be an artist, but you are afraid of being a starving artist. You have to think of it this way: not every artist struggles. But the artists that are truly successful are successful due to a combination of luck and hard, hard work. A lot of the time, most of the time, in fact, you have to work really hard in order to be successful (not just as an artist but in all other fields as well). Are you willing to work as hard as you may need to in order to support yourself doing what you love? And is that field what you truly love? Do you truly love that field enough to work as hard you may need to in order to stay afloat financially? These are all really important questions to consider when deciding which college major is the right one for you, but you should not let how much money you could potentially make be the only factor in your decision. Your future happiness is at stake, so it is a fine line to walk. Think of it this way: Money can’t buy you happiness, but it does keep bread on the table. One Influenced By Outside Sources Another major that you should avoid choosing is one influenced by outside sources. Who are these outside sources, you may ask? These can be your family, for one. Your family wants what is best for you, but sometimes they can be blind to the most obvious things. “You should be a doctor like your mother!” someone might say. However, they fail to remember that you faint at the sight of blood, that your stomach churns at the mention of bodily functions, and that smell of anti-septic leaves a bitter, acrid taste in your mouth. “You should major in business like your brother!” a relative might suggest. But do they realize that you would have to take Business Calculus in order to get that degree? You might not suck at math, but you are just not calculus minded. I mean, you barely scraped through Calculus AB in high school! It was torture, pure tortureâ€"how are you going to be able to go through that again? And can you really see yourself in a career where you need to know and have to use calculus on a regular basis? “What about being a Theatre major? You were always so good in the school play!” another person could recommend. And maybe that was true. Maybe you rocked it whenever you were in a school play. Or maybe you failed spectacularly and were awful, a hot mess on the stage (though it is very nice of that person to compliment you in spite of that). And while you had fun playing around on the stage, it is not really something you could see yourself doing forever. The idea of doing the same show for more than a weekend? Preposterous! How do actors in a professional run not get sick of playing the same part for weeks, months, sometimes even years on end? And being an actor requires a person to be vulnerable, to lay their souls bare on the stage for an audience day after day. That might not be something you feel quite comfortable doing. Maybe community theatre is a better fit for you, rather than the rigorous demands of being a professional actor. You want to live up to others expectations and you do not want to let your family down. Sometimes, they might even be applying pressure on you to make what they think the right choice is. However, the only person who really knows the right choice for you is you and you cannot allow someone to push or force you to live out their idea of what your life should be because in the end, it is your life and you are the one who is going to have to live it and bear the consequences of it, not them. You. So make the choice that feels right to you, not because someone told you that you had to. pexels.com One That Your Friends Are Doing This point continues on from the previous one. Another specific, outside source that could influence your decision n regards to your major is your friends. You love your friends. In fact, you adore them. You wish you could spend all your time with themâ€"why not choose the same major as them so that you can take all of your classes together? You can intern at the same places. Maybe you can even work at the same place after you graduate? Or maybe your friends are really cool, and you want to be as awesome as them. Look how put together they are. They know exactly what they are doing and what they need to do in order to be successfulâ€"and they are doing it. Meanwhile, you have not got a clue what you want to do or how to accomplish any of the things that you want to. So why not be like them? Pick the same major, take the same classes, follow the course that they have already set. It is not like you can copy a whole life, right? The problem with these kinds of thoughts is that you are just riding on the tailcoats of someone else’s life and success. You are thinking about instant gratificationâ€"you want to make the present easier and happier. But your major is a long-term decision. It is a decision that you will have to live with your whole life. What happens when you graduate from college and go your separate ways? Who will chart the course of your life for you then? Will you be happy where you are when those same friends are not around to buoy you 24/7? You cannot depend on your friends for your happiness. They have their own lives, their own issues, and their own private struggles just like you do. If you lean too heavily on them during your college years, when else will you have an opportunity to grow and learn to support yourself? Once you are out of college, that is it, you are done. You will no longer be coddled. You will lose a whole lot of support. So learning to stand on your own two feet while in college is incredibly important. Remember the old adage: if your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump off too? Think for yourself and depend on yourself. Share the ride with your friends, do not make them drive the car too. pexels.com One You Have Not Investigated To round off the list of majors that you should not choose, another important major to avoid is one that you have not investigated. Maybe a major sounds glamorous or you think the jobs you can get will make you a lot of money. But did you know that a business major has to take calculus? Did you know that being pre-med means you might have to dissect some animals? Did you know that majoring theatre means hours and hours and days and days of rehearsal, most of which is outside of class time? Investigate possible majors, and investigate them thoroughly. Know what you are getting into before you sign up for it. The Real Deal You have made it this far into the article, so you really must be invested in making the right decision for your major in college. And most likely what you wanted rather than quandaries to ponder and questions to contemplate was a concrete list, some cold hard facts, about what you should or should not major in. While of course there is no black and white answer, there are majors that statistically have higher unemployment rates and lower degree satisfaction, which should also be a factor in your decision regarding your major. Top Twenty Majors With The Highest Rates of Unemployment History Computer and Information Systems Criminal Justice and Fire Protection Linguistics and Comparative Language and Literature English Language and Literature Physical Sciences Psychology Political Science and Government Sociology Fine Arts Physical Fitness, Parks, Recreation, and Leisure Commercial Art and Graphic Design Economics Communications Finance Multi/Interdisciplinary Studies Biology Business Management and Administration: Mathematics Mechanical Engineering Top Twenty Majors With the Lowest Degree Satisfaction Plumbing Mining Engineering Carpentry Cosmetology Automotive Repair Medical Administration Computer Administration Management Miscellaneous Business Medical Administration Military Technologies Accounting Construction Services Industrial Production Technologies Materials Engineering Hospitality Management General Education Airport Operations Culinary Arts Medical Assisting Operations Logistics and E-Commerce Civil Engineering Top Ten Least Lucrative Careers 2017-2018 Religious Studies Exercise Science Music Art History Paralegal Studies Graphic Design Anthropology Radio Television Art Photography None of these lists add up, huh? Nothing quite matches up. It just makes it all the more confusing, right? But do not worry. As long as you work hard and continually do and look for the best, you will certainly go far. Good luck in deciding your college major!

Italki Challenge The Game Is On

Italki Challenge The Game Is On Teddy Nee runs a popular language learning blog called Nees Language Blog. Hes also taking the 2015 New Years Language Challenge and is making regular updates on goal to learn Portuguese for the Challenge. Reposted with permission. Original post here. Italki Challenge: The Game Is On (Photo credit: Wikipedia) It has been one week after the challenge started and I have taken four classes so far. It was a bit off schedule but hopefully, I can manage to do more classes on the following weeks. My target language in this challenge is Portuguese, just general Portuguese, means that I do not specify the target for any certain kind of Portuguese (as what we have known, there are Brazilian Portuguese and Portuguese from Portugal) My reason is that because I have known Spanish and I have actually started reading about Portuguese before Italki Challenge. In that case, I thought it might be better to learn another Romance language since I have known one of them. Quick tips: As a rule of thumb, learning a language from the same language family with the language(s) that you have known saves much time and effort, since you might have known a large amount of the language traits even before learning it. Class Tutor and Learning Material I plan to have as minimum as four classes per week, with one hour per class session, in order to reach the target of 20 hours between January 15th and February 28th. I have an 8-5 job from Monday to Friday, so the only time I have for learning language is after dinner. I found a tutor from Portugal named Sophia, who I have known before Italki Challenge. She has taught 85 students from around the world and has completed more than 190 class sessions. Apart from Portuguese, she is also teaching Spanish, Galician, andMirandese. We talk only in Portuguese during the class although it is not that easy to understand even though I have known Spanish, due to its pronunciation. However, I find it easier to understand written text, sometimes with the help of dictionary. My main goal is to improve grammatical and conversational skill, as well as to learn about the differences among different kinds of Portuguese language. And since my tutor is from Portugal, I am also interested to know more about the country and its culture. (Photo credit:  Wikipedia) Final Thoughts Learning is a lifetime process, one cannot excel in only a fortnight. Thus, I also practice the language by myself outside of the class continuously. Most of the time, I listen to Portuguese songs or radio broadcasts while doing things, or even working. My job requires me to sit in front of computer the whole day, so I am much benefited by this condition. Other than that, I also like to read articles about language learning, business, technology, or sociocultural related topics and I try my best to also read in Portuguese. Basically, I am including foreign language into my daily chores. Are you also participating Italki Challenge? Share your progress with me in the comment.

20 Tips For New Tutors (Part I) - TutorNerds

20 Tips For New Tutors (Part I) - TutorNerds Twenty Tips For New Tutors (Part I) Twenty Tips For New Tutors (Part I) Individualized, private teaching can be a daunting but rewarding new challenge for prospective tutors.   Tutoring allows you to optimize learning and understanding in a way that usually can’t be achieved in a conventional classroom.   After years of tutoring and teaching students of every academic level in several subjects across four states, here are some of my pieces of advice for a tutor who is just starting are you a student? Book your private Anaheim tutor today. Only Tutor What You Know Well Just because you took a class, or even got an ‘A’ in a class, does not mean you are suitable to tutor it.   You should be able to consistently answer nearly any question that your student has about the subject; so, if the class is something you took three years ago and you don’t remember the material, then you shouldn’t be tutoring it. Try finding an online final or practice test and take it yourself to check if you know the material. Ask to See Material Beforehand Even if you are an expert on the subject, you will find as a tutor that each teacher will teach a class differently; they have their priorities, expectations, and grading styles.   To help you adjust to this and make sure you are prepared to help, you should always ask that the student send you some of their class materials or current progress (homework, previous graded tests/quizzes, finished diagnostics or practice tests, rubrics or a syllabus, etc.).   This is especially useful before the first lesson. Know the Goals of Your Client Different students (or their parents) are looking for different things out of tutoring.   They might want to understand what’s going on in class and how it applies to life.   They might need to have a strong foundation to take more advanced classes in the future. They might only want to pass the class to fulfill the requirement and don’t care about the material.   They might want to guarantee that they get an ‘A’ by the end of the semester.   They might need to be aiming for a certain score on a test.   Whatever the case, ask them what they are looking to get out of tutoring so you can tailor your lessons accordingly. Watch Them Do Work It can be easy to end up lecturing and explaining answers yourself without your student doing the work.   Often, a student might nod, or agree, or say they understand while you teach or show an example.   However, you need to make sure that they understand and can replicate what you are teaching them on their own.   Make sure you are stopping often enough to give them work to do on their own to make sure they’re keeping up. Time-Intensive Work Should Be Outside Tutoring Hours You may want to give practice tests, or extra practice problems, or have your student write a short essay as part of your learning.   You should try to keep these tasks outside of your tutoring lessons.   No one wants to give a lot of homework as a tutor, but paid private tutoring also shouldn’t include an hour of you just sitting and watching the student do work on their own.   Use tutoring time to review and check the material that you had them complete before you arrived.   It can also be an excellent way to keep them focused and on schedule if you don’t see them more than once a week.

Coping With Fucking My Sister After Tutoring Me in Ballet

Coping With Fucking My Sister After Tutoring Me in BalletAfter my sister tutored me in ballet last week, I wanted to do something to show her that I appreciate her being the one to help me become a better dancer. She is a very good dancer and always helps me learn new things about dancing. Therefore, I wanted to make sure that she knew how much I appreciated her helping me become a better dancer.Tutoring is not the most pleasant thing in the world. Especially if you are the one that is tutoring. You are there to learn from your sister, not to have her spanking you. So what was I going to do?I know that this can sound a little cruel but it wasn't what I wanted. This happened on Tuesday. I decided to pick up some mail at work while my sister tutored me. I knew I needed a good solution for my problem and I saw an envelope that said 'sweetlove.' Sweet love?To be honest, I hadn't read this yet but I opened it anyway. I knew that she must have given me this letter when she found out that I had fucked her, so I felt a little bit bad about it. Plus, I couldn't really explain the reason why, I was having second thoughts and because of that, I was giving my sister the backhanded compliment.She took it very hard and became depressed. She has always been very bright and didn't give her feelings in to letting her heart and emotions are hurt by a letter like that. However, she was a very happy person even if it wasn't a good letter.When I got home from work and found that my sister had sent this on Mother's Day, I decided to give her a hug and tell her how much I appreciated her tutoring me in ballet. I knew that this would make her feel better and that she deserved it. If only I had known that there were such things as these before I had been such a selfish person. However, it all worked out okay in the end and I am happy with my sister for being a good student and teacher for me.May we meet again one day to pay a visit to the place where we used to go to spend time togethe r. That would be so nice. She would know that I thought about her all the time and that made her a happier person. I guess we are a family now and it is no longer about me or her.
