MTG Tutor Cards - The Secret Tip to Help You Start Playing
MTG Tutor Cards - The Secret Tip to Help You Start PlayingMTG Tutor Cards has long been a favorite among avid players and lovers of Magic. Whether you're new to the game or you've been playing for years, there's a tutor in your bag. Using these cards can really help you with your game, as well as getting you ready for the next round. Here are some tips to get you started.Before you even begin to play, you don't look at your deck. You need to look at your tutor's first, since the first card is the most important. If you can't see your tutors, it can be difficult to determine what needs to be added. Since so many people play at home, they often don't spend enough time checking their tutors. If you don't see your tutor card when you take a look at your deck, move it to your hand, so you'll see it more often.The second card is very important, but you don't need to look at it. If you're using a tutor that asks you to add a land, you should look at the second card. You may even find a land that's not in your deck and then put it back into your deck. If you can't find any other lands that are missing, you could also consider adding another one from your library, but make sure you have enough to put it in your deck.The third card is most important and you should always put it on your tutors, if you're using one. If you're using the tutor you see in the instructions, you may need more than one land. If you're playing a black deck, you may need a couple of basic lands. If you're using a multi-colored tutor, you will probably need all of the colors. If you're using the white tutor, you'll just need to make sure that you get white mana.The fourth card is on every tutor, so you should look at it often. If you're using a tutor that requires you to draw three cards, you'll need to draw three more, so that your tutors can do their work. It can be hard to remember how many lands you need, so keep track of it while you're playing.Remember that you need to make sure that you're u sing the exact cards in your previous deck. If you're using the common black card, you'll probably want to use the common black land instead of the uncommon one. Use the same color as the land. If you have two uncommon cards, you can use one uncommon land, but you can't use an uncommon land if you're using a common card.One last thing, always make sure that you use the cards as instructed. If you're using an uncommon land, you can't put the uncommon land into your deck, and vice versa. That means that you can't put a common land into your library, but you can put the uncommon land. You should take your time to make sure that you're following the steps.

Creating Successful Free Play Time for Kids with ADHD
Creating Successful Free Play Time for Kids with ADHD All kids need time each week to engage in creative play outside of their structured extracurricular activities. Its during this time that kids develop important social skills, problem solving strategies, and independence while fueling their imagination and creativity. Even just 20 minutes a day during the week coupled with a few longer stretches of time on weekends can make a big difference. For many parents of kids with ADHD, who often rely on highly structured activities to help manage ADHD symptoms, however, the idea of allowing time for play without rules, structure, or adult supervision can seem intimidating. Ideas of free play quickly spiral into visions of a free for all filled with impulsive behavior and complaints about boredom! Fortunately, with a little planning and a modest amount of structure and support it is possible to create successful free play opportunities for even the most active kids with ADHD. Choose a strategic location. Have your child play where you can see them. Simply having an adult present in your childs line of sight helps kids with ADHD stay safe and engaged. So, avoid sending your child off to his or her bedroom or playroom alone. Instead, have your child bring a few toys and activities to a common room in the house. Just make sure you leave time for clean-up when free play is over! Have creative play toys and activities available that your child finds interesting. Kids with ADHD often need a high level of stimulation in order to stay engaged. Every kid is different when it comes to the toys and activities that they find interesting, so work with your child to find creative options that will hold his or her attention for at least 10 minutes, if not longer. Make sure these activities are largely mess free (steer clear of paint and glue!), and can be done independently without close adult supervision. Limit the options. This may seem counterintuitive, but giving kids with ADHD fewer options during free play will actually help them be more engaged. Many kids with ADHD will become overwhelmed if they are presented with too many choices, and some will even meltdown. So, present a few free play options, about 3 at a time, and change them out regularly to keep things interesting. Use a Timer. Some of the biggest free play conflicts happen when its time to transition to the next activity. Its natural for kids to want to continue to play when theyre having a good time, so use a timer to make the transition easier on everyone. Have the child set the timer at the start of free play. Give a warning when there are 5 minutes left, and let your child know that free play ends when the time goes off. By having your child set the timer, youre helping him or her take ownership of the process, so that the narrative can change from My parents are making me stop playing! to My timer went off so free play time is over. Post a list of Free Play Rules. Having basic ground rules for free play provides necessary structure for your child without interfering with his or her creativity and imaginative play. Create a list of just 3 or 4 basic rules and post them someplace where they are visible to your child. At the start of free play, read through this list with your child and let him or her know that free play will need to end early if he or she needs to be reminded to follow the rules more than three times (the number of reminders can be tailored to your childs level). The best rules are those that cover a wide variety of behaviors and tell kids what to do rather than what not to do. For example, rules like, start cleaning up when the free play timer rings, stay in your play area, show good sportsmanship when playing with others, and use your inside voice, encourage a wide range of positive behaviors. Catch Your Child Being Good! When your child shows positive behaviors during free play, make sure to let him or her know that you have noticed! Praise the good behaviors as they happen, or at the end of free play if you want to avoid interrupting his or her play. Your child will feel proud of the fact that he or she was able to play well independently, and will be more likely to demonstrate these positive behaviors again. Free play is important for all kids, so help your child carve out time each day to play creatively outside the structure of typical extracurricular activities. Shorter free play times may work better for many kids with ADHD, so start small. With a little structure and planning your child can be engaged, content, and creative during free play time. ABOUT DR.

I Want to Learn Another Language! A Guide for the Absolute Beginner
I Want to Learn Another Language! A Guide for the Absolute Beginner I Want to Learn Another Language! A Guide for the Absolute Beginner You can do it.And yes, Im talking to you.Whether you flunked out of high school German, were too embarrassed to even attempt a bonjour on your visit to Paris, or were only able to stick with your New Years resolution for three days, youâ"my dear, dear readerâ"can learn another language!Im not going to pretend that its easy for everyone. Some geniuses seem to soak up languages like sponges, whereas people with certain learning disabilities can face significant challenges.For the rest of us, language learning is somewhere in the middleâ"it can be both immensely frustrating yet also immensely rewarding, often both at the same time. It might take you months to handle a concept that someone else grasps instinctively in minutesâ"and vice-versa.But whatever the outcome, the joy and benefits of communicating in another language are real and attainable. Even more importantly, the process of getting there is thrilling.This post will take apart both of these aspects for those who are t otally new to language learning, or for whom it has seemed like an insurmountable challenge in the past. I Want to Learn Another Language! A Guide for the Absolute BeginnerI come at this from my perspective as a former language teacher and an experienced learner of languages, by the way, with my own set of successes and major challenges when confronting a language. (For a book-long academic take on the same subject, and one that has informed my learning style and advice, check out How Languages Are Learned.)Define Your Principal Motivation(s) for Learning the LanguageHaving a quality reason for learning a language is central to everything that comes in the weeks, months, and, yes, years that you will later spend studying, speaking, enjoying and maintaining it.Lets look at some examples. What do you think about the following reasons for learning a language? Are they likely to lead to success?I want to have a second language on my CV.I want to seem like a more intellectual/e ducated/international sort of person.I want cute guys/girls to notice me in a bar when I answer my phone in another language.Sure, there is no problem with folks wanting these things out of life, and the last goal even has the benefit of being specific. But language learning is a long, challenging journey, and what none of these motivations provides is a personal, compelling reason to focus on improving your communication.Compare the motivations above with these:I want to be able to flirt with the Russian girl in my yoga class.I want to place my order in good African restaurants in French.I want to understand the lyrics of marabenta music.I want to be able to make sales to clients in Brazil.I want to hang out and make meaningful friends at salsa events.Can you see how the latter motivations offer specific objectives for study that will keep you coming back to your grammar book with a sense of excitement rather than duty?Language learning is toughâ"when youre on your thousandth Chinese character or trying to crack the mysteries of Russian cases, it can help enormously if your overall motivation is connected in some way to the detail that youre trying to learn that day.And if its not connected, guess what: Often you can skip it! Theres no reason, for example, to spend much time with the Arabic writing system if your ultimate driving motivation is a desire to be able to chat with Lebanese relatives (whose oral language doesnt much resemble standard Arabic).I may always be looking to improve my vocabulary even in my mother tongue English, but I will probably never be fluent in baseball or physics jargon. I pick my battles in any language, based on what I like doing with it.Your motivation might even mean that fluency (whatever that is) is not necessary or desirable; theres immense joy and usefulness to be had with low-level, rudimentary and even silly communication in another language.Use Your Overarching Motivation to Set Achievable Short-term Communicati ve GoalsThis overarching motivation above can then be broken down and used to set your week-to-week and lesson-to-lesson short term goals. Such goals should of course be specific, small, compelling and fun. The connection to your overall motivation then makes them personal to youâ"something that you cant wait to dive into before and will really remember after.If my motivation, for example, concerned sales to Brazilian clients, goals that I might set for individual weeks would include, at various points in the long process:I want to be able to answer the phone in Portuguese.I want to be able to exchange pleasantries.I want to properly use a formal, business registerâ"and understand when its likely that I will switch to informal Portuguese with clients.I want to understand the culture of dealmaking in Brazil.I want to be able to describe our key products specs in Portuguese.All of these are great small goals that connect back to the overall motivation. For more on setting good an d specific lesson goals, see the link at the top of this section.Tools for Language Learning That Are Linked to Your MotivationWeve covered a lot of the best tools for language learning, but a key point to make here is that your choice of tools will vary enormously according to the motivation that is driving your learning process.To give one example, I own a Serbian textbook that gives lots of history on old, literary Serbian that most modern speakers dont even know or use. As interesting as it all is, my principal motivation for learning is to be able to enjoy a rakija when Im with friends in the Balkans and to complain together about life, so I focus rather on lessons about sevdahlinka songs (tragedy-tinged Bosnian laments), which give me the vocabulary that I enjoy and am more likely to actually use. Watching videos on the Internet and pausing to analyze, look up and make sentences from the new structures is thus a very useful learning method for me.If your overarching motiv ation involves listening, speaking or cultural elements, watching videos can be an important part of your learning process too. FluentU provides the perfect integrated video-based tool for language learnersâ"taking real-world videos and transforming them into personalized language lessons.For nearly all learners, some sort of textbook and language classes or online language exchange sessions will also be appropriate. But as much as possible, try to ensure that these are geared towards the reason that you are learning the language. Grammar, for most, is a means, not an end. You dont want to learn the literary past tense in French if you have no intention of ever writing a great French novel, for example, but you will definitely want to learn the spoken past tenses if you want to be able to hold a basic conversation in which you talk about things that youve done.For those interested in oral communication, the Teach Yourself language books tend to be very good for many languages ; but they should often not be your choice if your goal is to read and write the academic version of a language.Staying Motivated as You LearnIf you have a good overarching motivation and your day-to-day goals are connected to it, your desire to learn at each lesson should be nearly automatic. That said, youll want to include a certain amount of variation as well as try methods like these for integrating language learning into your life.Here are a few tips for creating a routine that you can stick with:Track your goals: Keep a notebook with the goals youve set for yourself; theres a lot of satisfaction in being able to cross them off your list.Make it social: Interact with other learners, whether online or in conversation groups. And, of course, try to interact with native speakers as much as possible. Humans are social animals, so doing this project with others will make it more compelling.Make it daily: Ive found that even a small amount of time every day (like a half-hour) c an be far superior to setting aside a few hours once a week for a class or a study session. When a language is part of your daily life, you dont forget your lessons as easily, and you find yourself thinking about what youre learning and how you can use it at many points throughout the day.Integrate learning with your media consumption: Consuming the news, podcasts and entertainment media in your target language rather than your own language provides incentives to learn and a richer experience with the language.Without giving any false hope for what is certainly an enormous undertaking, my wish is that you are leaving this post now with a more concrete and personally motivating desire to jump headlong into language learning.Your fling with a Russian girl/first sale in Portuguese/conversation with the Lebanese grandparents will be a great reward, sure, but with whatever motivation you have in mind, the process itself will also hopefully be quite fun.Mose Hayward blogs about language s, including the lack of smiling in Russian flirting, and why you thus might want to buy a gas station.

4 tips to keep your GPA high in college
4 tips to keep your GPA high in college Tips from a Private Irvine College Tutor: 4 tips to keep your GPA high in college Its important for students to have a good GPA as they walk through their college experience. Although they wont have the same pressure as high school students â" they already got into college after all â" theyâll still want to consider the importance of good grades. Some students will consider applying to graduate school or simply need to stay off academic probation. Additionally, students with a high GPA might be able to participate in honors programs that give them more opportunity to network or intern. 1. Focus on smaller assignments Many students forgo putting a lot of effort into smaller assignments that are worth only a few points so they can save their energy for tests and papers. However, these smaller assignments can be the key to a studentâs overall success. Even though each assignment is only worth a point or two, all of the assignments added together at the end of the term can equal up to 10% of the studentâs overall grade. This can easily make the difference between a B and an A for the average student. Also, most of these assignments take less than half an hour to complete, so its well worth the time to earn these points. 2. Organize like a professional Many college students end up with lower grades, and thus a lower GPA because they forgot about a due date or an assignment. This can be very frustrating especially for students who were totally capable of getting an A on those assignments. The best way to cure the situation is to organize efficiently. When students take notes, write outlines, and prepare ahead of time, theyre more likely to keep an eye out for those little things that can cause a big problem. 3. Attend office hours Students who want to maintain a high GPA usually visit office hours on a regular basis. This is the studentâs only time to get personalized feedback from the professor. Students can also ask questions about their notes or clarify something from the lecture. Additionally, when a student visits office hours on a regular basis, it lets the professor know that they are really serious about doing well in their course. This means the professor is more likely to spend time with a student or respond to last minute emails (READ: 5 Sings You Need a Math Tutor in College). 4. Effective studying Any studying is better than none at all but an effective study is what will earn a student a high GPA. Students are encouraged to work with their study group, tutor, or the TA to determine the best way to study for a particular course. Once good study habits are developed, students will save a ton of time and be able to save that energy to complete optional assignments for extra points or simply enjoy a healthy work/life balance. Learning how to study could easily be a course in and of its self, and in fact, some colleges offer a course on this subject geared towards first-semester freshman. Learning how to study the right way is one of the most important things a college student will do.

Beaker Definition - All About the Most Common Element
Beaker Definition - All About the Most Common ElementThe beaker definition is used to describe the most fundamental thing known to science, and that is the container for solid substance. It is also called a beaker vessel and beaker mean glass.If you look at the definition of beaker you will find that it is simple, a beaker is a glass vessel used to hold liquid. Beakers are also referred to as open or closed or a lip in the glass vessels. Some people believe that beakers refer to a type of windmill because the glass vessels that can be found in windmills are used to hold windmill power generators. The shape of the glass container is a beaker as the size of the amount of liquid that can be contained inside.The meaning of the beaker is also used in chemistry to define the exact conditions that a solid can be placed into a beaker. A beaker refers to the ratio of dry and wet matter, liquids and solids, or mass and volume. Chemistry therefore is defined by the total mass and volume of a su bstance and the volume of liquid that can be contained in it.Beaker in Chemistry is also used to define the volume that a substance can hold when compressed in the beaker. The volume of a substance that is found in the beaker or a beaker vessel is considered to be the weight of the material divided by the square inches of the container. The volume of a beaker also refers to the way that the weight is decomposed in the container. In all cases there is a volume measurement as the volume of a material is expressed in the form of mass.The volume in which a substance is able to hold is measured in beakers, that is the weight of the liquid in beakers. The volume of a beaker may be represented as kg m or gm m-2 as the capital letters it is not equal to one and two with the addition of the I used to give the size of the measurements.The beaker definition is used in chemistry to describe the amount of molecules that are present in a substance. The volume of a beaker is also the equivalent in the definition of mass for density. The volume of a beaker is a measure of the molecular weight and the volume of a beaker can be found as cm3/mol. The volume of a beaker is the equivalent in the definition of mass for density.The volume of a beaker may also be described in terms of the number of atoms in the chemical reaction and also as the total chemical reactions in the beaker, the molecular weights and the total number of molecules in the beaker. The volume of a beaker is also the equivalent in the definition of mass for density.

However, the benefits of learning to sing go further than you may imagine.For instance, did you know that singing can help your brain to adapt to learning foreign languages?As the French minister for education pointed out in 2007:Singing promotes the acquisition of the musicality of language. It helps people to identify the sound components of that language. Syllables and rhymes highlight the internal rhythm of a phrase and help children to reproduce the melodic line of a sentence.There are plenty of voice coaches to help you develop your skills and become an accomplished singer regardless of your lev el and personal goals in singing.But where exactly do you look for a singing teacher?

This will give you a good overview of your options.Before you begin your search for a singing teacher, it is important that you think about your objectives.These may include:Improving your dictionExpanding your repertoireImproving your singing technique and tone qualityUsing your voice to its full potentialImproving breathing techniquesUsing your diaphragm to control your vibratoIn order to find a teacher with the relevant expertise to suit your needs, looking in music shops can be a big help. In addition to the advertisements you will find, youâll also be able to consult the music specialists who work in the shop and will be able to advise you on local singing teachers.Another good option for those looking for music teachers is word of mouth.Simply asking around is a good way to not only find music teachers but to find out what other clients think of their teaching before you contact them for yourself.In the digital age, there is also the option of looking online for local services on websites such as Gumtree, where it is easy to find advertisements within a certain radius.Whether youâre an aspiring opera singer, musical theatre performer or youâd just like to improve your singing voice, your singing teacher will be able to adapt their lessons to your needs and ensure that you make the best possible progress.Find a Singing Teacher through a Music SchoolIf your concerns lie with teaching quality and the teacherâs level of expertise, approaching a dedicated music institution is the route for you.Holding the correct postur e, being able to follow a score, and learning about musical styles throughout history, the singing coaches that teach in music colleges have plenty of qualifications to match their experience.Whether itâs during group or private lessons, the objective of the singing teacher is to identify each studentâs vocal type and assign them relevant pieces to develop their personal singing style.Adapting sessions on an individual basis helps instil confidence in performers and helps them to get to know the timbre of their own voice.As professionals, singing teachers can generally adapt their lessons to any level, whether their student is a complete beginner or preparing for auditions.Teachers can also tailor their lesson according to their studentsâ personal goals. For instance, if a student needs some training in musical theory to be able to compose their own pieces, singing teachers can focus on this. Likewise, if a student has an interest in performing, singing teachers can help them focus on their musical expression and stage presence.Whatever the type of instruction the pupil receives, it will help them develop as a musician in their own right and may even help them to make decisions about a potential career in music.Here are some examples of music and theatre schools where you can find singing teachers:Stagecoach Theatre Arts (Nationwide)Singing and Breathing (South West)Pineapple Performing Arts School (London)Music schools can be part-time organisations (aimed at children looking for extra-curricular activities), or private performing arts institutions.Joining a music school is the perfect way to enjoy singing as an amateur performer ¦ source: Pixabay - intmurrYour options will vary depending on your geographical location as well as the type of tuition you are looking for, but with enough research into the availability of singing lessons, anyone can reap the benefits of learning to sing!At music and performing arts schools, pupils can choose between two ty pes of coaching: group or private singing lessons online.Group Sessions: These are guaranteed to be the more affordable option, and allow individual students to compare their own voices with those around them. This can help them to learn more about their personal singing style and situate themselves within the group. In singing workshops, budding singers are joined by those of a similar level in order to ensure that every student benefits from the session in equal measure.Private Sessions: One to one lessons are costlier for obvious reasons. For example, teachers are able to personalise their teaching for individual students, making for a more efficient use of time.Your route to finding a singing teacher at a theatre arts or music school will differ depending on your goals and your budget.
