Organic Chemistry Tutor Vectors
Organic Chemistry Tutor VectorsOrganic Chemistry tutor vectors are used for a student to learn organic chemistry easily. The tools and the equipment used in the teacher's classroom can be easily replicated by the student for self-learning in his home. The visual aid of the professor's slides, diagrams and pictures provides a visual reference while learning how to do things.These organic chemistry tutor vectors come in two versions one for beginners and the other for advanced students. Both options have different mechanisms to evaluate a student's aptitude and ability for taking chemical knowledge under guidance.In the first version of organic chemistry tutor, it is the student who gets to select the topics he would like to pursue while doing his homework under a teacher. The tutor requires certain question and answer questions and tests from the student as part of the teaching process. The second organic chemistry tutor is more interactive and encourages students to work as a team.Th e second organic chemistry tutor is another similar instrument which is called an in-house teacher. These teachers are knowledgeable in the basic biology, chemistry and physics of the subject and can identify the specific problems which the student might encounter while undertaking the work. The teachers could have resources to aid the student's struggle to tackle difficult questions with the help of a visual aid of Professor's lecture.In this version of organic chemistry tutor, students should understand that the assignment is not just a collection of biological and physical proofs. The assignments need to be easy and important enough to have the student understand the subject and commit all the steps of computation to be completed for every study session. A healthy and balanced diet is a must to keep the body and mind in good shape for studying.These two types of organic chemistry tutor vectors are available in two versions. One for the student who has already taken chemical cours es with math and sciences. The other has three sections for students to have fun as well as earn some money. These sections include hobbies or skills, activities and money.Students can choose from a variety of teaching devices in order to engage in any of the sections of organic chemistry tutor for learning. Students are free to choose the best organic chemistry tutor they want for their learning needs. The instructor of these organic chemistry tutor vectors has to make sure that the students are taught the subject under the guidance of a good and an experienced teacher so that the student can move on to the next step of having organic chemistry mastered.

What Can I Do With a General Studies Major
What Can I Do With a General Studies Major If you are considering or have declared a major in general studies, chances are youve been asked about what you plan to do with your degree. While some people might argue that a general studies major cant possibly prepare you for the future, there are several paths that you can take with this major as you move beyond your undergraduate years. Here are four ways that you can use your general studies major: 1. Apply to graduate school The general studies program at many universities provides room for students to explore different subjects while concentrating in a specific academic area. While this concentration may not be as extensive as a traditional major in that same field, it may help develop your desire to pursue higher education like a masters degree in a certain field. Even if your school doesnt offer concentrations within the general studies major, you may have noticed some aspect of your coursework that particularly captures your interest. Your general studies major can make you an attractive candidate for graduate school, as it shows that you have developed your critical thinking and writing skills, and that you can think on an interdisciplinary level about academic topics. If you think you may need help studying for your GRE you may want to consider contacting a GRE tutor. 2. Work in a team-based environment A degree in general studies is synonymous with critical thinking and teamwork. Many graduates of general studies programs have found success in marketing, sales, and other careers that require deep perspective and thinking, as well as extensive teamwork. Your unique combination of coursework enables you to draw on a broad base of knowledge in order to find solutions to complex problems. 3. Work in a writing-oriented occupation If you have declared a general studies major, chances are that youre writingabout a wide variety of subjects regularly. Students in general studies majors often become flexible writers who are able to write intelligently and comprehensively in virtually every liberal arts discipline.Because you cultivate the skills to adapt to the many types of writing assignments that are required of you throughout your undergraduate career, you are also in a position to adapt to the unique writing styles required of many jobs. General studies majors can be good candidates for paralegal positions, careers in journalism, or freelance writing jobs.If you think you may need help perfecting your writing you may want to consider contacting awriting tutor. 4. Work in a field that is unrelated to any traditional bachelors degree Having a degree in general studies may make you an attractive candidate to industries like real estate because of the skills that these employers know you have developed in your coursework. Such employers assume that you are willing to think outside the box, that you will engage positively with coworkers and customers, and that you are able to present your ideas in a clear and concise fashion. As a general studies major, you present yourself as an adaptable candidate who can make connections that others might miss.

June Language Challenge Javis Update
June Language Challenge Javis Update My name is Javi, I work in e-marketing at italki and Iâm taking the June language challenge! For this challenge I wanted to choose a very specific goal: learning a Chinese menu. There are so many Chinese culture and traditions around food and meals that I am not aware of, so many dishes that I try and love but dont know how to describe, so many food-based idioms that I dont understand Iâve been living here for over a year and I still canât order in Chinese! So this month I promised myself that all that would change. So after 3 weeks, Ive finished 8 lessons on italki and my Chinese teacher Catherine is awesome (I highly recommend her)! This week I am trying to fit in 3 more lessons so all I need to do is 1 more this weekend to finish it. Its been tough but I agree with Tracy in that you just need to schedule your lessons in advance and set this time aside to meet your goals. So halfway through week 2, I went to lunch with a bunch of my colleagues as we welcomed our new summer intern Jiahong and they had me try and order off the menu. It actually wasnt bad as I got about 75% of the food items correct. I know I still have a ways to go but I feel with these last 3 sessions and by reviewing what Ive learned using flash cards, I will most definitely meet my Challenge Goal! I hope you guys are enjoying the Challenge as much as I have. Ive been at italki for almost a year now and its the first Challenge Ive participated in and its a really great experience!

7 Food Ordering Apps For Hungry Students
7 Food Ordering Apps For Hungry Students Image via Bich Tran at Pexels These three scenarios share a common solution. Sometimes, cooking just requires too much effort and far too much time. Those thirty-minutes-or-less recipes always end up taking forty-five for one reason or another. Doing the dishes is another story. Sometimes (often), your food shopping schedule is thrown off by, well, life. Between multiple classes, internships, jobs and professional development opportunities, plus the demands of maintaining a strong social life, students know this all too well. Luckily, food ordering apps have risen in prominence and usefulness in the past few years. Itâs the new way to order takeout, without the hassle of calling a noisy restaurant and hoping that your order is interpreted correctly on the other end. Food ordering apps can be true lifesavers if ever you encounter the above scenarios. Furthermore, itâs a real treat to have your favorite restaurant dish delivered to your door; you donât even have to put real pants on, much less actually leave your house! By granting you a single space through which to browse hundreds (even thousands) of different restaurants, food ordering apps might even cause you to become more adventurous. You have almost too many options; you can order your favorite, trusty rustic Margherita pizza, or try a butternut squash gnocchi to mix things up. Maybe youâll even decide to order from a place youâve never heard of before, or spontaneously decide tonight is the night to explore Ethiopian food. There is no shortage of food-ordering app options out there for hungry students; here are seven food ordering apps to try out, and some ideas on what to order. 1. GrubHub Living in Californiaâs Bay Area, I see GrubHub as one of the most prominent food ordering apps locally. Itâs available in 900 cities! You can usually find a sign in the window of most popular restaurants that displays the GrubHub logo, meaning that restaurant is a participant. To use the GrubHub app, type in your location and you will find a list of restaurants in close proximity. If you have a specific food item in mind, like âpizzaâ or âsandwiches,â you can search specifically for thoseâ"or, you can search based on cuisine for a broader selection of menu items. According to their website, you also have access to âreviews, coupons, special deals and a 24/7 customer care team that tracks each order and makes sure you get exactly what you want.â Given that so many restaurants are compatible with Grubhub, you can order almost anything that youâd like! Iâm a huge pasta fan, so Iâm usually searching for penne primavera or linguini with fresh tomato sauce and mozzarella sprinkled on top. The app makes recommendations for you based on your ordering history, so the more often you use the app, the more refined your recommendations will be. 2. Seamless Seamless is an app belonging to Grubhubâs brand portfolio, but I list it separately here because it is technically a separate app. This food delivery app is another option if youâre looking to order food without (usually) having to pay a delivery fee. Certain restaurants do enforce a fee, but overall the app does not charge delivery fees the way many other apps do. According to digitaltrends.com, however, there are often order minimums enforced if you order from the Seamless app. The app is available in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Miami, Chicago, Houston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, and they often offer discounts to new users, so if youâre on the fence and looking to try Seamless, youâll have that incentive available. On Seamless, you can browse restaurants by city, or search over 75 cuisine options on the website. You can get really specific if you filter by cuisine; beyond the most highly advertised optionsAmerican, Italian, Mexican, Asian foodsSeamless offers categories such as Afghan, African, Cajun, Cuban, El Salvadoran, Egyptian, Filipino, Halal, Jamaican, Moroccan and Pakistani cuisine for its users. You can even search for bagels, bakery items, BBQ, frozen yogurt, smoothies, and ice cream. Gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, Kosher and low-carb eaters shouldnât fret eitherthere are categories for each of you! Infographic by Julia Dunn 3. Tapingo Tapingo is unlike the other food ordering apps on this list in that it is a college campus-based commerce app. According to their website, â[They] believe in a world where technology removes the hassles and stress of everyday transactionsâ"so humans can focus on more important things. You know, human things.â Students can use Tapingo to order a coffee drink and pick it up at the campus coffee shop without having to wait in line, or they can use it to request deliveries from campus eateries. Note that you can only use Tapingo to order from your campus restaurants if your university partners with the company; participating universities include San Jose State University, Temple University, The University of Texas-Austin, University of Wisconsin-Madison, University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, UCF, Arizona State University, Virginia Tech and more (Tapingo now serves over 200 campuses across the U.S. and Canada). Wikipedia notes that Tapingo users can âbrowse menus, place orders, pay for the meal and schedule the pickup or have it delivered. On certain campuses, students are able to use their universitys meal dollars to pay for food.â Furthermore, an article by VentureBeat states âThe app knows your location and learns about your preferences over time to make contextual recommendations. For example, the app will know if you get a latte every morning and offer to place the order for you.â Sounds delightfully dangerous, doesnât it? Out of the apps on this list, Tapingo is the most college student-orientedso if you find yourself hungry, running late for class, and without the time to stand in line waiting for somebody to make your sandwich, order it on the Tapingo app! This platform is gaining increasing amounts of traction, challenging the way consumers engage in mainstream commerce, and it could really save students some time in their daily routine. 4. HealthyOut I only heard about HealthyOut somewhat recently, and as a vegetarian who loves âhealth food,â I decided to take a closer look. HealthyOut is a food delivery app focused on providing users with more information about various restaurant dishes than just the cuisine category to which it belongs. The app allows you to search for menu items that fall within a certain caloric range, as well as items that are tagged as paleo, pescatarian, low-carb, dairy-free, high protein or gluten-sensitive (and more). From here, the app will show you a list of local restaurants and the number of dishes on their menu that fit the criteria you set during your search. HealthyOut will even display a visual breakdown of a menu itemâs composition (i.e. how much of it is fat, carbs, protein, and so on) for folks who really need to know what their food is made of. If you have highly specific dietary restrictions and want to understand what your options are for ordering delivery, HealthyOut may be the best app for you. Often times, students with specific dietary needs experience trouble at their universityâs dining hall, and despite speaking with the chefs and managerial staff, they may find significantly fewer options that work for them in their meal plan. Perhaps HealthyOut can alleviate some stress for these students (although, of course, buying restaurant food regularly can add up). Image via Pexels 5. Eat24 Its slogan being âthe best food in town, right in your pocket,â Eat24 has become a popular food delivery app that works with 20,000 restaurants and counting. Eat24, now under GrubHubâs management after having started out as a Yelp platform, is popular namely due to its unique âWhatâs Goodâ feature. According to Lifewire.com, Eat24 âuses an algorithm to pick out the absolute best dishes for you based on popular items, local tips and user reviews. You can even use your camera to scan your credit card through the app if youre the one picking up the tab!â Thus, students looking for a pretty comprehensive food delivery app may enjoy Eat24âs suggestions. 6. DoorDash DoorDash has an interface fairly similar to its competitors, yet it maintains popularity among college students and the non-student population. Personally, I appreciate the real-time tracking feature that DoorDash provides after you place your order. From the comfort of wherever you are, you can watch your order move through the preparation and delivery processes and anticipate when it will arrive. An article by Digitaltrends.com highlights something called the âDoorDash Delightâ scoring system. They note that âthe âDelight Scoreâ uses factors such as food quality, restaurant popularity, delivery time, and customer satisfaction in order to recommend the best restaurants in your area.â For individuals who donât necessarily know what theyâd like to eat at a given time, checking out the âDelight Scoreâ could help indecisive eaters make a decision based on several intersecting criteria. Additionally, if youâre in need of a job and donât mind driving around town to different restaurants, DoorDash hires âDashersâ to complete delivery orders; they promise a flexible schedule, allowing Dashers to set their own working hours. 7. Uber Eats The offspring of the San Francisco-based ride-requesting app, Uber, Uber Eats is exactly how it sounds: Uber for your food. They claim to make ordering takeout as easy as requesting a ride, and itâs pretty true: just add dishes to your cart, check out through the app, and wait for your items! Uber Eats is available in over 50 cities in 13 countries, and students with dietary needs can use the âSpecial Instructionsâ field to write down requests applicable to the dish they have ordered. Next time youâre hungry, take a few minutes to investigate the food ordering apps popular in your town. Each of the above apps operates under relatively similar parameters, yet their features differ slightly to accommodate varying populations. If youâre looking to really scour the food delivery app scene, check out Postmates and Delivery.com, both of which deliver more than just food. You may even want to see if your university partners with any of these companies (other than campus-based Tapingo) in order to offer special deals to students. As a graduate student at San Jose State University, I have received exclusive student-only offers from the campus bookstore for a few of the above food ordering apps, which is a nice perk! You can click here to find out the most popular food delivery app in your city, according to Recode, and here to discover what college students in other towns and states like to order most often on these apps as reported by USA TODAY College. Happy eating!
Aspiring Food Critic Hopes to Travel the World One Day
Aspiring Food Critic Hopes to Travel the World One Day Aspiring Food Critic Hopes to Travel the World One Day Noki, 11-years-old, Math Level I In just the fifth grade, Noki is already far above his peers. Thanks to the Kumon Math Program, heâs working on challenging algebraic concepts, such as factorization and quadratic functions. Having been enrolled in Kumon since he was six years old, Noki has overcome many challenging math concepts, and continues to keep pushing himself. He credits Kumon for molding him to be a more independent learner and helping him stay ahead academically. âI stay motivated to do Kumon by looking back and seeing how much I have improved in academics and just the basics of work in general,â said Noki. âI know that if I can keep it up, then Kumon can really help me take that next step to achieving my goals and to become a better person. Also, Kumon can teach me how to do daily work and be more independent.â Noki hopes to one day become a food critic. âI think it would be great to travel around the world, trying different foods, and sharing my thoughts on them with other food lovers,â said Noki. While Noki maintains a well-rounded schedule, heâs able to balance his extracurricular activities and academics. This school year, Noki was elected as student body vice president. Basketball is his sport of choice, and he plays on two different teams. For the past two years, Noki has been playing for a club called Mentally Fit, a non-profit organization lead by current and former athletes with collegiate to professional experience. This organization prides itself on teaching young players valuable life lessons including teamwork, leadership, and sportsmanship, while still having fun in the game. Noki even credits Kumon for helping him develop the right amount of discipline, which he applies in his basketball practices. âI use my mental training from Kumon to get through the repetition of practice in basketball,â said Noki. Noki has also been a long-time member of an Asian American Basketball League, comprised of young male athletes across Southern Los Angeles. He has also taken his athletic abilities to the court with volleyball. This past year, Noki made the Manhattan Beach Surf Volleyball Club, a highly competitive and award-winning club in his local area. Nokiâs accomplishments donât stop there. As a budding viola player, he passed through the audition process to become a musician for the Manhattan Beach Strings â" Honor String Orchestra. The young musicians who make up the prestigious orchestra are the most advanced string students selected from each elementary school in the district. The musicians can take their years of lessons and school band experience, and apply that in an orchestra setting. Nokiâs hard work and discipline has not gone unnoticed, as he was one of 55 students selected to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference in Calgary, Canada. We had the opportunity to speak to Noki about his Kumon journey thus far. How has Kumon helped you inside of the classroom? Noki shakes hands with Kumon North America President Mino Tanabe The math concepts I am learning in school have been far easier for me because of Kumon.

3 Easy Online Courses Worth Taking
3 Easy Online Courses Worth Taking Image via Pexels Online courses offer flexibility for nontraditional students who may have full-time jobs, re-entry students hoping to ease their way back into the usual classroom setting, and students with otherwise complicated schedules that do not lend themselves to an in-person classroom experience. But how do you determine which online courses are worth taking? Here are 3 easy online courses to take that wonât waste your time. 1. Personal Finance Offered by Missouri State University, this class will teach you highly practical tips for navigating personal saving, credit and retirement planning. If youâre fuzzy about your finances, this eight-class course will help you gain more control over money management. According to USA TODAY, you can find the course on iTunes U and Youtube via Open Culture, a site any student seeking online courses should visit, as it âallows you to search for free online classes by topic, then directs you to all available formats.â Given that this courseâs topic is non-academic, it shouldnât pose too much stress for students, and even finance-savvy students could find this class a nice refresher that will set them on a steady path to financial stability. 2. Communication Skills and Team Building The second course in Fullbridgeâs four-part Career Development XSeries, âCommunication Skills and Team Buildingâ can help any student succeed regardless of their field/major. If you find interest in personal and professional development, youâll enjoy the tips this course offers to help you thrive in the workplace and improve relationships with colleagues. The course requires only an hour or two per week, and the benefits of learning better communication strategies outweigh the $60 cost. According to the class description, you will learn âhow to determine the most appropriate format for different messages, how to use top-down thinking to structure your communications, how to manage conflict in a professional and appropriate manner, how to achieve team synergy by using the forming, storming, norming, and performing methodology, and how to scope, plan, execute, and reflect on projects,â among other topics. Students may think they know all there is to know about best practices for communication, but thereâs always more to learn, and knowing how to collaborate with others will serve anyone for a lifetime. 3. A Beginnerâs Guide to Irrational Behavior The title alone makes me want to enroll in this course. The class, accessible via Coursera but hosted by Duke University, claims to âintroduce students to the range of cases where people make decisions inconsistent with standard economic theory, which assumes rational decision making, and think about how insights about that sort of behavior can be appliedâbut donât worry if youâre not that well-versed in behavioral economics. The course listing claims students only need to have âcuriosity about human nature.â It seems highly promising, especially given the instructor, Dan Ariely, is highly recognized in the field. In general, itâs worth noting that the subject of your online class may affect your motivation and productivity. In high school, I opted to take U.S. History course online instead of in-person because it was my least favorite subject. I figured that it was the most sensical choice, that it would be less bothersome if I didnât have to physically sit in a history class. However, I quickly learned that the less you enjoy your online course, the more likely youâll put off the coursework and become frustrated when you cannot receive immediate support from an instructor. I now believe itâs much easier to take an online class that excites you, whose coursework you wonât want to delay each night when your calendar alerts you to complete readings and take that pesky comprehension quiz. Additionally, itâs not always the best idea to take many classes for your major online, as youâll usually get the most immersive experience in a physical classroom with peers and instructors accessible. Lastly, while these courses are relatively âeasy,â online courses taken for more academic purposes can be as challenging (or more challenging) than a traditional course. As said in an article by Rasmussen College, âItâs true that online courses offer you the flexibility to learn in your own time and space, but that doesnât change the amount of work you put in. You still have the same amount of workâ"just without the formal classroom setting.â That said, you get out of an online course exactly what you put into it. To search for online classes that peak your interest, try browsing on edX, a free online course platform that lets you search for what youâd like to learn! Coursera, a similar site, will also direct you to tons of courses across disciplines.

The Hirsch Index for each element can be found at many sites, such as Harvard University's Center for Environmental Health and the Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research and the Hamilton Heart Center at Harvard Medical School.You may have come across Hirsch's method of determining Hirsch Index, but perhaps you are not aware of all the different elements, or how they can help you. Some common exa mples are listed below. They are commonly used in conjunction with other elements, but also with some other elements to help with effective organic products.For example, all of the four elements that make up salt are Hirsch elements. Similarly, all the four elements that make up chlorine, such as chlorine dioxide, are also included. This can help with different topical applications for the skin and different acne treatments.Some Hirsch Elements is listed for less commonly known elements, which are mentioned for your use. For example, tungsten has some other uses, such as with ceramics, as well as in the manufacture of lighting technology, but it is also used to help treat a wide range of problems, including Alzheimer's disease. So, if you are interested in using the Hirsch Index to find the best products, it might be wise to consult with someone who knows about the different elements.Your local office of the National Institutes of Health may also have a website that offers more info rmation about the Hirsch Elements or visit one of the many Hirsch Indices websites. These websites will give you information about each element, and will also provide information about their relationship to each other, and to the other elements, and also for the benefit of you.In this case, it is also useful to consider Hirsch's Index to help you find the best products.
