How to Learn Chemistry and Physics With Math Tutors

How to Learn Chemistry and Physics With Math TutorsChemistry and Physics are two of the core subjects that are necessary for almost every young person. The subject is well-known for being a prerequisite to virtually every other subject. However, many times students feel shy of these subjects because they do not enjoy doing chemistry and physics.These subjects however, can be taught by a math tutor or an online chemistry and physics tutor. An online math tutor can help any young person to learn any subject. Science and math in general are important to make the future brighter and a teacher can benefit from them a lot. Learning science and math together will allow students to excel in one or more subjects.Many courses are offered online, which include both chemistry and physics. These lessons can be helpful for both young people who are interested in these subjects as well as for those who wish to try out the subjects. An online math tutor can help them with both the subjects, giving t hem the chance to take both.Different subjects may need different amounts of time to be studied and learned, which means the student's patience level will vary. For example, if a physics and chemistry tutor have two or three hours a day to spend on a course, a chemistry tutor will have to take about half an hour of that in order to meet the qualifications required. However, if two hours is spent per day, then a chemistry tutor could work the same amount of time, helping students to learn about chemistry as well as physics. Students will find that they do not have to repeat the same lesson twice if they decide to go through with it.Many students however choose to do all their learning by themselves. While this is possible, students are often limited by the amount of time they have on their hands. If the chemistry and physics tutor are provided by the school, then he or she can take advantage of the students' lack of free time.An online tutor will have a website where the student can watch videos. These videos will give students insight into the subject and the lessons can be based on what the student can handle. The tutor will also provide feedback and teaching aids in order to help the student understand the lessons and learn fast.A math tutor and an online chemistry tutor will help students to learn any subject in an efficient way. Students will benefit from both subjects, and this can benefit the student in various ways. If a student feels intimidated by the subject, then he or she can make use of the online tutors to overcome this.

10 Free Physics Resources for Teaching Kids

10 Free Physics Resources for Teaching Kids This is a guide for the best online physics resources, many of which I used when learning about physics, and one of which I still use for revision myself as I study at Imperial College London. So, in no particular order . . . . 1. This first website is from the Institute of Physics and is great for learning about lots of aspects of physics. I especially like the teaching astronomy section which features fantastic videos for  11 to 16 year olds and  are great at  grabbing the imagination of kids. One of the key questions tutors are asked is “how can I get my son/daughter excited about science.” Well I say start here! 2. The Physics classroom covers a lot of key physics material that is certain to come up in exams. I particularly like the introduction to  waves by the folks at the Physics Classroom. More advanced students have plenty of scope to learn much more as they become interested, which is perfect for continuing their interest. Good to note that it is also available on iBook and iPad. 3. Providing resources for 9 to 11 year olds and perfect for help with the 11 plus,  Topmarks  is designed with fun colourful games to engage kids in learning about science and hopefully enable a continued interest in science. I have linked a game that teaches about solids, liquids and gases but you can search the site for other interactive games. 4. This is a fantastic GCSE physics site  from myPhysics that goes through each topic covered in GCSE. It’s highly interactive, colourful and easy to use. There should be an A level section coming soon which I am excited about. 5.  GCSE.com   (purely for GCSE surprisingly!) has lots of past papers and also resources to look up material when stuck. Perfect for making sure you have covered everything. They also provide some very simple, explanitory diagrams that hopefully should give a slightly new way at looking at topics. These diagrams may well prove more intuitive for your child.   Well worth a look. 6. I love the schoolphysics website  for its fabulous animations that  illustrate key physics ideas. There are an extensive number of them and they are all very simple and easy to use. If the animations aren't enough there are also thousands of other pages with beautifully laid out content for 11 to 19 year olds. I would particularly suggest anyone wanting to study physics at university to have a look over any content that hasn't be covered in the A level course. 7.  Discovery Education is great for tutors and teachers, as the site has full lesson plans for different topics. Well worth a look through if you find yourself getting stuck on how to approach a topic. 8. Created by Kishore Vyas, a science teacher in West London, My GCSE Science  has a video for every GCSE science topic.   All the videos are clear and, most importantly, designed specifically for the GCSE candidate in mind.  It has foundation videos and then more advanced videos, meaning that the explanations are always pitched at the right level.  Fantastic looking website too! For offline tuition  and inspiration why not head to the Science museum in South Kensington! 9.  Science teachers provides complete worksheets that are engaging and different. Very useful for teachers or tutors.  I find the most important thing when teaching kids science is presenting the material in many different ways. These worksheets are great for that. 10. My list would not be complete without mentioning the wonderful Khan Academy. It started as a way for Khan to teach his niece through videos  he uploaded on YouTube, but before too long they  spread across the world.   I’ll let the videos speak for themselves. If you are looking for extra help, why not try physics private tuition. Find the right tutor for you with Tutorfair. Happy learning!

An iPod worth $8 billion English Listening Exercise I think one of the hardest things understand in English, or in any language you are learning, is humor, and especially more subtle humor, like sarcasm. When using sarcastic humor, we often say the opposite of what we mean, or believe, in an attempt to make it look ridiculous.

How to avoid cold feet The teach abroad edition

How to avoid cold feet The teach abroad edition Feeling anxious about teaching abroad for the first time? I know the feeling, trust me. When I first made the decision to move to Australia to teach and throughout the entire application, interview and offer process, it never occurred to me to feel afraid or nervous. It wasn’t until I broke the news to friends and family, and started making concrete plans for departing, like booking flights and organizing packing, that I started to feel those first stirrings of unease. And as the day of my flight loomed closer and closer, I realized that I had officially developedcold feet. I’d traveled around to different countries before, but this felt like a whole different ball game. It struck me that I would be moving abroad - totally alone - for a significant period of time. To say I started feeling just a little nervous, right before it was time to depart, is a bit of an understatement. It’s important to remember that fear is a completely normal, human reaction to the prospect the great unknown. While it’s impossible to totally shake away all those nerves, here are a few ways to ease yourself into your new journey teaching abroad and start getting excited about your new life adventure again! Do your research The scariest part about moving abroad is facing the unfamiliar. Based on my experienceteaching English abroad on three separate occasions, one thing I’ve realized is that it’s always a good idea to plan ahead as much as possible. Google is probably going to be your main source of information, like it was for me. From informative articles (the Teach Away blog is a great starting point), to blogs written by teachers who also teaching abroad (check our blog roundup of some of our favorite bloggers teaching abroad), there’s no shortage of helpful information on what it’s like living and teaching abroad for the very first time out there. Learn about the culture There will, of course, be some social norms that are completely unfamiliar to you right off the plane. That’s why it’s worth reading up on these in advance. The more you know about your new country when you arrive, the better your transition will be. Finding out more about the customs and cultural norms of your new home will not only make you feel like less of a tourist. It will also help ease your mind and make you feel like a part of the local community. Learning a few common phrases will go a long in making you feel a little more prepared when you first arrive, too! Talk to other teachers who’ve been in your place Maybe a friend of a friend has taught abroad before and can offer some advice to help put your mind at ease. Don’t be afraid to reach out to other teachers on teach abroad forums about anything that’s worrying you, either - they’ll be more than willing to share tons of practical advice to help relieve your worries! Sign up to Teach Away today for access to the latest teaching jobs around the world. Don’t let a fear of failure (or FOMO!) hold you back Moving abroad is a big decision and it’s easy to anticipate all the ways that things can go wrong. Maybe you’re worried about finances, homesickness, missing out on important occasions back home...the list goes on! It’s totally normal to start doubting yourself. But don’t put too much pressure on yourself this early on. There will be hiccups along the way, especially right at the beginning while you’re still finding your feet. Just remember, moving abroad to live is an experience and you need to treat it like one. Be open to change and ready to try new things. Turn that nervous energy into productivity You’re moving to a brand-new country with your job already organized - you won’t need to scrimp and save as much as if you were job hunting on arrival. Exciting times are coming, so it’s time to channel those nerves into planning all the fun things you want to do once you arrive at your new teaching destination. Make a list and start planning out your free time. What are your favorite hobbies? If you’re a yoga buff, a book lover or sports fanatic, for example, start researching yoga classes in the area you’ll be living or look up book clubs or sports teams you could potentially join. Moving abroad is also a great way to shake things up a little. You can even start afresh and pick up a brand-new pastime - try a cooking class or trampoline lesson - even ultimate frisbee! Finally, remember all the reasons why you wanted to start this big new life adventure in the first place. You’ve put in a lot of time and hard work to get this far, so give yourself a pat on the back and allow yourself to feel that sense of excitement and accomplishment all over again. Take it from someone who ended up going abroad to teach on three different occasions - you won’t regret it! What’s your biggest fear about teaching abroad for the first time? Let us know in the comments below!

Chemistry Combustion - How it Can Help You

Chemistry Combustion - How it Can Help YouChemistry combustion refers to the process in which chemicals react in an environment to produce heat. The process starts with a chemical compound called an oxidant and the gas phase called a clean agent. The reactants become unstable and burn with the heat produced. Chemical reactions occur on a microscopic level in the atmosphere because of the varying levels of oxygen present in the air.Heat from chemical combustion is commonly felt in areas where there is windy conditions. Windy conditions create turbulent conditions, which allow the volatile molecules of the gas to mix. This mixing produces more combustible gases that can then reach the surface. The first reason that a person would look into how to control chemical combustion is because they want to enjoy more space while driving. When it comes to cold temperatures, you don't need to waste your precious fuel.Another common example is when people use the sulfuric acid in home remedies or detergents to clean up their homes. The sulfurous properties allow the cleaning agent to react with the cleaning solvent, which will combine all together, resulting in a beautiful odorless, colorless liquid. The combination of chemicals is what results in the reaction between the cleaner and the cleaning solvent.The use of gas chromatography and high-speed processing equipment has changed the way that people experience some types of chemical reactions. This process involves a chemical compound to be put through the different stages of the chemical process. Once the compound is put through the process, the components of the compound are separated and placed in different bottles that have the specific numbers so that the mixture can be analyzed.The large company that manufactures the equipment has a wide range of products that will help you analyze this compound. There are tests that you can do to test for the reaction time and other variables that can affect the reaction and that you can even add your own customized tests to help you understand the reaction. Since this process is going to be used in your business, you want to ensure that you are fully familiar with the software.This procedure also allows a chemist to separate the compound to be used into smaller parts that are easier to handle. The larger compound makes for more expensive work and this is where the cleaning and the analysis come in. This method allows the product to be cut into pieces that can be easily handled. It also allows the work to be done at a higher speed.When you start talking about this procedure, the application of chemicals is not the only thing that is involved. You will need to take care of the clean up. This can include any type of cleaning fluids that the product may require and you will need to remove the contaminants. In some cases, there are quite a few that you will need to deal with.
