A second language helps widen the world of your child, introducing them to and offering them opportunities with other cultures, at home and abroad. Foreign language study improves reading and communication skills, boosting SAT scores. Bilingual children and adults are better at staying focused, problem-solving, and recognizing and acting on new inputs, making school and business life easier. Simply thinking in another language has been shown to help people make quicker, better decisions. Speaking a foreign language presents better educational and career prospects, as well as the opportunity for a higher standard of living. Learning foreign languages even prevents dementia later in life. Need help with the next step?

Ironically, both Hugo and Adriana are Brazilian, but when they met they were both traveling in the United States. After taking many classes with Adriana, Hugo mentioned hed be traveling in the U.S. and Adriana said shed be there around the same time. After Hugo had purchased his flights he and Adriana realized their trip would cross in Miami Beach, so they decided to meet up. They walked along Lincoln Road and took in the tourist attractions and went to dinner with Adrianas family. They had plenty of opportunities to speak in English and Portuguese. So two Brazilians who live only about 300 miles from each other in Brazil met face to face thousands of miles away from São Paulo.When Hugo began learning English with LOI he was frustrated by the methods he had tried and wasnt really looking forward to the classes.

10 Educational and fun rainy day activities for children
10 Educational and fun rainy day activities for children We are never really short of rain here in the UK and with rain comes some tough boredom from our children. There's nothing to do today, mum!! or I'm soooo bored! in the whiniest voices, are words that we all frequently hear when children are stuck indoors. Then there is the constant sibling bickering because they can't think of anything better to do; MUM!! She won't give me my phone back!, MUM!! He broke my favourite bracelet that Lilly got me!, DAD!! Where's MUM?!. So, we have come up with some great educational things to do on those frequent rainy days that are fun and packed full of learning opportunities. 1. Teach a new skill This could be anything from sewing on their scout badges themselves or learning to knit to learning sign language together. Learning a new skill will spark their imaginations and inspire them to want to learn, whilst keeping their boredom at bay. 2. Cinema Afternoon Films and documentaries can teach us a host of things from learning about different character traits, how to deal with problems and different views and opinions, so what better way to spend the perfect rainy afternoon than snuggled under blankets together. Take the time to discuss with your child what they thought of the film and what they particularly liked; this will help them retain information. 3. Play Geography games As ridiculous as it sounds learning geography really can be fun. A globe can be turned into a fun game of find the capital/country and point it out (you can later add a timer to make it more challenging). Drawing flags together and learning about capital cities whilst exploring an atlas can be both fun and extremely educational. 4. Practice science experiments There is nothing like a good science experiment to make staying indoors fun and with the internet you can find hundreds of fun experiments to try at home with your child. Talk about what your child would like to learn about and make sure they are involved all the way through, from finding the experiment and getting the equipment ready to talking about what happened and recording the results in a scrapbook. 5. Make and bake in the kitchen Children love cooking and getting their hands dirty so preparing some cookies or cupcakes together makes for another great rainy day activity. And baking is not just about fun your child, it will build their practical skills by allowing them to measure the ingredients, follow recipes, and create their own unique decorating styles. Then you can have a taster tea party and enjoy the fruits of your labour. 6. Read together Whether it be choosing books to read together or making up fairy-tales, reading can be a great way of spending some quality time together. Take turns in reading pages, read using different voices or change the character traits to make them funny or different; time will fly. 7. Arts and crafts There are so many arts and crafts for children to do using household recyclable items. You can teach your child about the environment and the different ways we can help to preserve it. Draw or paint pictures, sand art, make a calendar or star chart, build a rocket, play with play doh, the list is endless. 8. Educational board games There are hundreds of great board games that are fun to play and with a little imagination most can be turned into something educational too. Anything from word games to help boost their vocabulary or building games to build up their coordination skills. 9. Go over any school-work your child may be struggling with Now this may not sound as fun as playing games or baking cookies but if your child is struggling with a particular subject at school or having trouble keeping up in class then a rainy day at home poses the prefect opportunity for a little extra help. Take the time to go over any issues slowly and patiently and try incorporating a game to make it a little more fun. If your child is struggling at school then a private home tutor would hugely benefit them. 10. Build an indoor den Children love nothing more than having their own personal space and a den is a fantastic way for them to build up their imagination and sharpen their thinking skills. Let them decide what they could use to build an indoor den whether it be blankets, sheets, chairs or mattresses!
Andys October Language Challenge Week 3
Andys October Language Challenge Week 3 Im almost done! Only 2 lesson to go! Planning and scheduling the sessions in advance definitely works. In the last 7 days i took 3 classes and i have 2 more planned for the rest of the week. This should make me complete the challenge by friday 24, almost a week in advance! During the last 10 lessons i mostly worked on vocabulary and sentence structures. I think i will dedicate next week, the last of the challenge, to improve the pronunciation of what i learned, especially fixing the tones! If you ever tried to learn Chinese you will know that this is a tonal language and that the meaning of the same syllable change according to the tone of it. This is a major issue for me, and many other westerners with me, as Romance languages are not tonal and this implies learning a whole new way of understanding and pronounce sounds. Next week i will also record the final video to show you guys my improvements on the language. It will be halloween! Will you guys record a scary message? Maybe i will ??

Fostering a learning environment for children with autism - ALOHA Mind Math
Fostering a learning environment for children with autism Parents of children with Autism do an amazing job everyday of dealing with ordinary situations in an extraordinary way. When it comes to providing a good learning experience, this also needs to be approached in a planned and strategic manner to provide the ideal environment for the childâs education. Children with Autism take in a lot more sensory information than other children, and this means that we need to set a controlled environment in order to achieve effective learning. Some of the ways in which we can do this are: Try to set apart a separate room or space for the child to spend the main part of the day. This will serve as a safe area where you can control the environment and inputs. Remove any unnecessary sensory equipment from televisions to music players to even overly bright or mildly flickering fluorescent lights. The lighting should be bright but not overwhelming, and the colours of the room should also be soothing ones, avoiding loud oranges and reds as much as possible. Any clutter in the room should be disposed of, and books and toys kept away within cupboards or shelves as much as possible. The more things there are lying around, the more of a distraction for the child. An autistic child takes in nearly any sensory input around them, so what may not disturb another child may break their concentration on something else very easily. Introducing predictability and organization in their routines would also be a good way to help the child, as this is one of the most calming techniques to use and will encourage the child to face the experience without fear. Parents of children with autism face many challenges when it comes to communication with the child. While trying to foster a learning environment and help the child to study better, they may be able to develop orderly and unusual techniques, and find a way of communicating with the child in a patient manner. This can be tried using toys of interest to the child, and encouraging the child to communicate by some means when he wants something during play or study time. These are just some basic steps to help support parents and children, and to develop a safe, soothing and fostering environment for learning in children with autism. Children may even go on to be contributing adults later in life, and one such example is an iPad app called Soroban, that is based on the Abacus, and has been developed by adult students who have Aspergers or Autism. Our Facebook page provides you with holistic bits of information that assists in your childâs learning development. Follow us to receive frequent updates https://www.facebook.com/aloha.usa

Is Your Math Tutor Effective?
Is Your Math Tutor Effective?When you want to be able to get a good grade in the class, a middle school algebra tutor may help you in this area. The middle school level of algebra is designed for high school students, who will be preparing for college-level algebra classes as they move through their high school years. This type of math is harder than the high school level of algebra but also provides more opportunities for the student to gain an edge over other students and become a more efficient and successful math and science student.A middle school algebra tutor is a teacher who can offer solutions and tips for difficult problems in algebra. The book, 'Algebra Made Easy' by Dr. Russell Pomeroy was written to give students the correct answers and help them understand the methods behind it. There are many resources for math tutors, but not all of them are great. You should look for a math tutor who is willing to answer all your questions and show you how to learn algebra, no matter if you need help with memorization or apply it in your life.One of the main problem is that some math tutors are too busy to show you the proper way to memorize formulas and know which one to use. They just sit down with a student and teach them how to do it. While this is great for teaching a new concept, it is not good for memorizing. To avoid mistakes and always be successful, the student must have the self-confidence that there is no wrong way to do something, even if it seems to be the wrong way.Besides the teaching teacher's attention, a math tutor needs to keep track of your progress. They will monitor your learning on a daily basis and make sure that you will have a productive lesson each day. A math tutor should also give you the confidence that you have great instructors who will help you understand every single lesson.The importance of algebra is also based on the problems and tests that you will be presented in your work. Being able to correctly perform math will increa se your chances of getting high grades in a certain class. Most students struggle with math at first, but remember that the school grades and test scores will be based on the ability to memorize and be able to do mathematics well. With this kind of help, you are less likely to be sent home if you do not meet the minimum standards for your grade.If you are not sure about a math tutor, but you know someone who has a great idea about the subject, take the time to talk to them. Talk to the person who works with your math tutor and ask if they would be willing to teach you how to do it yourself. Since you will not be able to learn algebra without an instructor, you should take advantage of every opportunity you get to learn the subject. As long as you are learning by yourself, you will never get tired and stop studying.The big part of a math tutor is making sure that you are learning fast. All the necessary information must be present to increase your confidence and to help you memorize, thus make sure that you are receiving all the tools to learn algebra effectively. If you are willing to devote your time and effort, the support that you need is only a phone call away. Take your math tutor into consideration when you are choosing a math tutor to work with.
