French Pronunciation Guide Avoid These Common Mistakes!

French Pronunciation Guide Avoid These Common Mistakes! Sign up successful 1. “E” instead of Schwa What do Americans say when they’re at a loss for words? Uh…yep, that’s it! Say “uh” a few timesâ€"this is more or less the French schwa. The schwa, or neutral vowel, appears wherever there is an unaccented E: je, me, and seraine are a few examples. Do not pronounce these as regular American E vowels; it could change your meaning entirely. 2. Diphthongs Speaking of the French schwa, lots of Americans mess them up by adding diphthongs. In English, we close our mouths at the ends of vowels. For example, an American pronounces the word I by saying something like “aaee.” French, like other Romantic languages, does not have diphthongs. If you want a terrible American accent, go ahead and pronounce “je, the French word for I, with a diphthong. You’ll get something that sounds like “jay,” along with an eye roll from native French speakers. 3. Silent Final Consonants Many French words end with unpronounced consonants. Take, for example, the title of one of my audition arias: Les Oiseaux dans la Charmille. In this short phrase two word have silent endings: oiseaux and dans. When spoken, this phrase sounds kind of like “lez wazo da la shar meal.” Pronouncing the ends of the words ruins the smooth lilt of the French language. 4. American R instead of Uvular R In American English, we pronounce the letter R by drawing our whole tongue up to the roof of the mouth. The French, especially in Paris, use a uvular R instead. Only the back of the tongue (the part near the uvula, that dangly thing in the back of the mouth) goes up. Try doing it in front of the mirror and making sure the front of your tongue stays down. 5. French Combination Vowel U In the U.S., we often pronounce the letter U as a schwa (as in uh). In French, the letter U, as in “tu,” is a combination vowelâ€"the lips form one vowel while the tongue forms another. We don’t have combination vowels in English, so this can be especially confusing for native English speakers. There are actually several combination vowels in French, but this is the most pervasive one. The French U is a combination of the vowel “ooh” (as in room) and the vowel “ee” (as in bean). The “ooh” happens with the lips; the “ee” happens with the tongue. To form this vowel, try saying “ee.” Keep your tongue in the “ee” position while changing your lips to form an “ooh.” 6. Aspirate Consonants In English, we put emphasis on words using consonants, especially aspirate consonants like T and C/K (take that cat out!). Aspirate simply means that the vowel is followed by a little puff of air, as in the English letter H (hurry, half). French is centered around vowels, and there are no aspirate consonants. The letter H is silent (as in hiver). T and C/K consonants are pronounced dentallyâ€"farther back in the mouth than we say them in English. Place your tongue right behind your front teeth and practice saying these vowels there. For even more tips on how to perfect your French accent and pronunciation, check out this quick video lesson. Ze Tip of Ze Iceberg This is hardly an exhaustive list of the many French pronunciation rules, but it is a start. Avoid these common mistakes and you’ll already be better than most Americans who study French. By ensconcing these rules in your memory and continuing to learn more, you might get rid of that pesky American accent altogether.

Helping Your Child Start the New Year Right

Helping Your Child Start the New Year Right One of the best things about starting a brand-new year is the pervasive feeling of a fresh, new beginning. For children who have experienced a bumpy start to the school year and adopted a negative attitude as a result, the new year is also an opportunity to hit the reset button and change the attitude. Here are several tips on how to help your child start 2020 off right: Get to the root of the problem(s). Maybe your child has had a difficult time in one class. Maybe he or she doesnt see eye to eye with some teachers. Or perhaps a subject that went well last year has suddenly become difficult this school year. Start off the year with an open and honest conversation with your child. Resist any judgment and simply listen. Knowing what has led to your childs feelings of frustration and negativity will help you develop a 2020 action plan that you both feel good about. Set goals or revisit goals set earlier in the year. The goal-setting process is valuable in so many ways. It encourages students to think about things they would like to accomplish in the remainder of the school year, and it helps renew their motivation. Sit down together to review any goals your child set at the start of the school year to see how he or she is progressing. Adjust them as needed and discuss how your child will take steps in the coming weeks and months. Reflect on achievements last year. If the start of the school year has been a little rough, its understandable why your child might feel down or negative. Point out your childs strengths. Talk about a few of the high points of the first semester of the school year (and even the end last school year). Even small successes are worth noting. Refresh your childs perspective. A recent report card with across-the-board bad grades is certainly grounds for concern, but it isnt the end of the worldand it certainly isnt a problem that cannot be fixed. Remind your child that talking about these issues and making a plan to correct them is the first step toward turning things around. Instill resilience in your child. In school (as in life), problems arise all the time. The more you can teach your child to learn and grow from difficult times, the stronger your child will become. Remind your child that when confronted with challenges, he or she should take a deep breath, believe in him or herself, and persevere. That grit is a trait that will serve your child well in life. Lastly, it is important that you have a good attitude about school as well. Your child witnesses how you react to and talk about school, and it rubs off. If your child is struggling, he or she likely feels worse about the situation than you do. Be positive, action-oriented, and most of all, supportive. Let your child know that education is important but his or her well-being is even more important. Together, youll make this year a great one. Huntington is here to help your child achieve his or her best and regain that self-esteem. Call 1-800 CAN LEARN to talk about how we can help your child make this year his or her best one yet.

Discovering Oneself by Mentoring Others

Discovering Oneself by Mentoring Others Education has always been a big part of my life, and I have found myself acting as both learner and teacher over the years. It started at in-school tutoring programs where I began working with my peers tutoring for standardized state examinations, and gradually I began taking on more and more responsibility. I worked as a private tutor on my own for many years before finally coming to Frog Tutoring, which has opened up many new doors for me.As a math and science tutor in Fort Worth, Texas, I work primarily with students leaving high school or entering college, and in the last semester have worked with many new freshman engineering students from the area. I work as a mentor as much as I do a tutor. My job is not only to help these students understand the materials, but also to help mentor these young adults through this transitioning period in any way I can. Most of these students are leaving home for the first time, and are encountering more responsibility than they've ever had before. It can be tough for new college students to adjust to being in charge of managing their time and juggling all their priorities. I am able to help as a peer who understands and can help with all the new difficulties these changes can bring. I don’t just help them with study skills, but also with how gaining confidence in their abilities, preparing for meeting their professors for the first time, troubles with their new roommate, and anything else that comes up.In all of my years of tutoring, these past few months working with other engineering students have been the most rewarding. I don’t just help with homework or preparing for exam, I am able to help students build the skills they will use for the rest of college, and even in their careers. The first few semesters can make or break you in college, especially as a science student. I am there to help support them when there is a bump in the road. They must learn new avenues and approaches to problem solvingâ€"the engineer mindset, so to speak. I truly feel like I am having a meaningful impact on their lives.It’s strange that in teaching others over the years, I have managed to learn so much about myself. I’ve learned how to be a leader, a friend, and a coach. I've learned what it means to really inspire others, and that means a great deal to me. Being told that my work makes a difference with these students really make me feel so grateful for the opportunities I've been given to help them, and it has also revived my interest in subjects I had long since moved on from. Helping a student on general high school chemistry recently I remembered my love for the course that I took so many years ago. The time I spend with these students sheds light on how much I have grown since the time I was there age, and how I got to where I am. Teaching these kids helps remind me who I am and what is important to me.I can think on a single instance in particular which has really impacted me while tutoring. A student came to me with a need for tutoring in chemistry, and she claimed there was no way she was going to pass her class. After a few weeks of working together, she turned to me, grinning widely, and said “I get it!” Watching a girl who had no interest in the subject and who felt so down on herself about it suddenly become really engaged and, dare I say it, excited was extremely fulfilling.I believe that tutoring, and in turn mentoring, makes me a better person. Looking back on old courses that I once took reminds me of where I started outâ€"just as clueless as any other freshman about how the world actually worksâ€"and how much I have actually achieved with my hard work.

Preparing for an international teaching job interview

Preparing for an international teaching job interview An in-person interview is like taking a trip to the dentist - a necessary evil. The build up is the worst part, the actual appointment is usually over far quicker than you expected and it’s a huge relief when the ordeal is over! As Placement Coordinators at Teach Away, our aim to help you secure your dream teaching job abroad and to make sure that your interview is as successful - and as painless - as possible. Here are a few simple tips to keep in mind to help you ace that teaching job interview. Do your homework. It’s important to do the right research on the school that you’re interviewing with. Have a look at the school’s website. What’s their mission statement? What curriculum do they offer? Doing this will help you figure out the type of teacher they might be looking for, and how you can present yourself as a strong candidate. This will also help you to gauge the types of questions you’re likely to face during the interview. While they will be focused on finding a teacher who’s capable of delivering quality lessons, each school has a unique set of values so it’s equally as important that they find the right fit. Brush up on any country and regional customs as well, and be sure to touch on these to show that you’re enthusiastic about working there. Check out the individual country pages on Teach Away for more information on each particular country. Sell yourself. By the time you reach your face-to-face teaching abroad interview, the interviewing panel will have already seen your application and employment history. They’re already considering you for the position - the hard part is already over! When you’re answering questions, include specifics that set you apart from other candidates. Don’t forget to cover points that aren’t on your resume, too. Sure, you can teach awesome lessons, but what else sets you apart? What are your hobbies and interests? Do you engage in extracurricular activities? Can you include examples of how your teaching has improved the success rate of your previous employers and, more importantly, how have you positively impacted your students’ lives? Anticipate questions. You can guarantee that the interviewing panel is looking for a candidate with excellent subject knowledge and the ability to thrive in a culturally diverse environment. Expect to answer questions on how adaptable and flexible you are. They’re looking for someone that can cope with culture shock, too. You could be asked to explain how you would teach a certain subject point and your teaching style, so brush up on your content knowledge in advance. You already know your stuff, but a recap will help you to better recall, for example, the fun way that you used a raw egg and a boiled egg to illustrate kinetic energy! Ask questions. Don’t forget, an interview for a teaching job abroad is also a chance for you to find out whether the job is right for you. Gather as much information as possible so you can make an informed decision if you do receive a job offer. Practice responses. Find a quiet room and rehearse your answers out loud. This will help you shape your responses in a thoughtful way and avoid any mental blocks. When you answer the first few questions confidently during the interview, your natural nervousness will subside. Relax, breathe! It’s the night before the interview. You’ve prepped hard - and you have the qualifications and experience the school are looking for. Your interview outfit is clean and ironed and your route to the interview site is mapped out. Last-minute cramming is only going to impact you negatively. The best thing that you can do at this point is rest, watch a movie, go for a walk, do something that occupies your mind and will help you get a good night’s sleep. You should be well rested and fresh. If you look stressed or tired, it, you risk making a weak first impression. You want to be alert and engaging - just as you are in your day-to-day school life. Take time to reflect. Every interview has its highs and its lows, and we know interviews can be painful to relive. However, once the interview is over, quickly jot down any questions that you can remember and how you answered them. Did any of your responses fall flat? Be critical and honest with yourself on what went right - and what went wrong. Success is not always guaranteed and you can still find positives from the experience so you can be better prepared for your next teach abroad interview. Finally, remember that your Placement Coordinator is always here to help. They have plenty ofexperience in facilitating interviews and should have plenty of advice for you. Don’t be afraid to ask for any hints or tips they might have up their sleeves. Looking for advice from teachers who’ve been there, done that when it comes to interviewing for teaching jobs abroad? Feel free to swing by our forum and ask your questions!

6 Surprisingly Easy Second Languages for Native English Speakers

6 Surprisingly Easy Second Languages for Native English Speakers 6 Surprisingly Easy Second Languages for Native English Speakers Theres no such thing as an easy or hard languageâ€"its all a matter of relativity.There are tons of weird rules and linguistic details to which  our English-reading eyes arent quite accustomed.Gender nouns, reflexive verbs and a wide array of verb tense conjugations can all feel a bit  daunting to the language novice whos never known another tongue but English.But dont let that stop you.These things are tiny hurdles, no matter how challenging they may seem from the outset, and theyre not reasons to forgo learning a second language altogether.While languages with those foreign components might seems challenging, there are plenty of languages that are  easier  because you already know English. They often share a common linguistic history, close geographical borders (in their respective lands of origin) and similar language structures with English. In this post, youre going to learn about all the languages which you can learn more easily and naturally thanks to already knowing English. Why Learn a Second Language?There are tons of benefits to learning a second language. For starters, its been said time and time again that learning a second language makes you smarter. We all want our minds to stay young and sharp, and this is a great way to give ourselves a rejuvenating boost in the brain department.Employers love it. Corporations, international organizations and government agencies jump at the chance to hire bilingual or multilingual employees. Learn a new language and you can open a whole new world of opportunities for yourself. One  day, you can even become a special agent for the CIA. We dream big here.Still not convinced theres value in learning a second language? Well, heres this. Once you pick up a second language, youll find it much easier to pick up  a third and fourth and  fifth.  Also, with more than one language under your belt youll find that youll want to start traveling more, meeting new people and exploring new cultures.You can change your perspec tive on life and the world.Its time to stop hiding  behind those crazy excuses: Im too old. I dont have the time. Im not talented with language. It costs too much money. All of these translate to one thing: Im afraid. Well, dont be! Picking up a second language is much easier than you think.In this age of  technology, the ability to learn a new language is right at your fingertips. FluentU offers a nice variety of second languages that are easy to learn for native English speakers. And, of course, you can always pick up a dictionary or a teaching book in the language of your choice and bring it with you wherever you go. The possibilities really are endless.You just have to want it and make it happen!So, What Language Should You Learn?Glad you asked. Lets start with some honorable mentions.  Some of the most common languages learned by native English speakers are Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese.Next to English, French and Spanish are two of the most spoken languages in the wo rld. Theyre spoken in over 100 counties combined! Really, on any continent in the world youll be hard pressed to find people who dont speak at least one or both. So theyre great languages to learn, and not too difficult either.Portuguese is among one of the top 10 languages spoken in the world. As Portugal got in on the global expansion game early on, it was able to establish roots in many countriesâ€"especially Brazil, where its the official spoken languageâ€"including a few countries in Africa and some Asian countries like India and Burma. Whats great about Portuguese is that its extremely close to Spanish in terms of vocabulary and sentence structure. Many who understand one can understand the other, so if you learn one its almost like getting a two for one deal.Italian is not as widespread as the other three. The largest Italian-speaking population outside of Italy is in Toronto, Canada. However, Italian is rooted in everyday culture from music to food to art, so if you adore an y of these things, which of course you do, learning Italian can give you a deeper appreciation for the beloved culture.Now that weve paid our respects to some fan favorites, its time to explore the road less traveled. Even though the above mentioned languages will probably always have a seat at the popular kids  table, they still arent the easiest languages to learn for native English speakers.There are languages out there that are perhaps less popular but much easier for the English-speaking tongue. So, before you keep reading, run out and get yourself a chin-strap. Your jaw  may just  hit the floor.Lets get started.6 Surprisingly Easy Second Languages for Native English Speakers1. AfrikaansAfrikaans is a West Germanic language that was considered a dialect of Dutch and which eventually developed into its own language. Its spoken by nearly 9 million people worldwide with its heaviest concentration in South Africa and Namibia. It has also traveled to other parts of the world and is spoken in small pockets of the US, UK, New Zealand, Belgium and Kuwait.Reasons to learn AfrikaansAfrikaans has been deemed the easiest language to learn for native English speakers.For starters, its grammatical structure is much easier to pick up than some other languages. It has cut out some of the complexities of Dutch. There are no noun genders or verb conjugations. There are also only three tenses: Past, present and future. So no need to worry about imperfect, pluperfect and subjunctiveâ€"areas which often have  native English speakers running for the hills.Thanks to its West Germanic roots there are many words that are similar to words in the English language, which makes  for easier pronunciation.While the grammar and word pronunciations might be a source of comfort, the sounds and intonations of the will take some getting used to. The speech pattern is somewhat different than that of the English language. Double negatives are extremely common in Afrikaans, which is something that usually makes a native English speaker cringeâ€"but since you wont be speaking English it shouldnt be too stressful on your ears.Afrikaans is a major part of South African media and entertainment. So for those looking to get into South African film and media, youll be a step ahead once you learn Afrikaans. Even if you dont plan on moving to South Africa for your career, its a great travel destination and youll be able to blend in with the locals.2.  DutchThis is a West Germanic language that belongs to a dialect group called Low West Franconian. Its got 23 million native speakers in The Netherlands and Belgium, and is also the official language in Suriname and several Caribbean countries.The Dutch also had a lasting influence in the United States,  most of which can be seen in New York, Pennsylvania and the Midwest.Reasons to learn DutchDutch and Afrikaans very closely related.  Many times a Dutch and an Afrikaans speaker can get by in conversations by speaking their own langua ges. Therefore, by learning one youll have an enormous advantage in learning the other.Another thing about Dutch that should be attractive to native English speakers is that modern Dutch uses a lot of words that are borrowed from the English language. For example daten (to date) and uploaden (to upload) are instantly recognizable to native  and fluent  English speakers.Dutch speakers tend to insert English in their conversations on a regular basis. Its such a common practice that theyve even come up with a word for it: Dunglish. Even if youve never learned a single word of Dutch, you can probably guess actually what the following sentence means: Dat was een beetje awkward.  Dont think too hard on it. Its probably exactly what you think it means. If you guessed that was a bit awkward, youre already on your way.One final thing, Dutch is great if you want to get into business or if you love art. The port of Rotterdam is the largest in Europe which makes The Netherlands ripe for trade a nd commerce. The Netherlands and Belgium are actually large trading partners with the US and UK, so there are many job opportunities for Dutch speakers. The Netherlands also has rich artistic history. Van Gogh ring a bell? Understanding the Dutch language will give you a deeper appreciation for the beautiful art by past and present Dutch artists.Dutch uses  gender nouns that tend to confuse English speakers, but like anything new, it takes some getting used to. However, if youve had any experience with  the romance  languages then youre already used to this. There are many complex vowel sounds which may feel a little unnatural at first, but English itself loves vowel combinations so this shouldnt be a terribly foreign concept. Practice makes perfect, so no excuses!3, 4, 5: Danish, Norwegian    SwedishWelcome to the world of the North Germanic languages, otherwise known as the Scandinavian languages. Combined, there are 21 million native speakers of these languages in Northern Europ e.There are around 6  million native Danish speakers. The majority of them can be found in Denmark, and its also a protected minority language in Germany.There are 5 million native Norwegian speakers in the world, most of them in Norway, though some can be found in Denmark.Swedish comes in at 10 million native speakers found mostly in Sweden, but also in Finland.Reasons to learn the Scandinavian languagesYoull become the ultimate polyglot. Seriously. The similarities shared among these languages are unbelievable.  If language domination isnt really your goal, sorry. Youll have a hard time avoiding being a polyglot even if you learn only one of these languages, because the languages are mutually intelligible.Each respective language has several dialects depending on which region of whichever particular country youre in. However, the differences arent so great that it will hinder your ability to understand and converse with the locals.Norwegian, however, seems to be the central link f or all of them. Norwegian speaker understand written Swedish and spoken Danish extremely well. So to start, Norwegian is the best bet.Native English speakers will find that theyre very comfortable with the grammatical structure of these languages. Take a look at this Norwegian sentence:  Jeg spiste egg til frokost (I ate eggs for breakfast).  The Norwegian sentence can be translated word for word in the exact order as it would be said in English. This takes a huge burden off of native English speakers. In learning these languages you put most of your focus into just learning vocabulary. Once youve got that down you can pretty much just speak without having to put too much thought into what goes where.If youre skeptical about how similar these languages actually are, take that Norwegian sentence and pop it into a translator. Generate both the Danish and Swedish translations for it and see what happens.The North Germanic languages have 29 letters in their alphabets. Theyve got the 26 Latin characters that we recognize as English speakers, as well as three added letters which are the same for Danish and Norwegian. The three extra Swedish letters are only slightly different and, really, these extra letters wont send you over the edge. Once you learn them  once youll never have to learn them again.Finally, a lot of native speakers of the Scandinavian languages can speak English quite fluently, especially the Swedish. So if youre abroad and it sounds like youre struggling, they may switch to English to make your life easier. Its always nice to have this fallback, but dont let them change the language if possible. Simply explain youre trying to improve your Danish, Norwegian or Swedish and continue on in whichever language youre using. The Scandinavians are friendly so theyll be glad to help, and probably also very flattered that youve taken such a dedicated interest in their native tongue.6. RomanianPeople may not be aware that Romanian is one of the Latin languages because its not as popular as the other more commonly learned ones. Still, there are around 26 million native Romanian speakers in the world. The vast majority reside in  Romania and Moldova. However, the language has spread enormously and can be heard in numerous pockets throughout Europe and even abroad.Reasons to learn RomanianAlthough it has evolved very much over the centuries, it still shares many words with the other romance languagesâ€"French, Spanish and Italianâ€"and even English. Therefore, if you have any familiarity with the more popular romance languages, Romanian will be an easy transition.Phonetically speaking, once youve learned how to pronounce the letters of the alphabet youre pretty much set when it comes to pronouncing words. Unlike English, there arent several pronunciations of a singular letters or letter combinations. You say what you see.Romania itself is a beautiful country with much to see. It boasts  a wide range of destinations  from striking architectu ral wonders and castles to the popular city Transylvania and natural attractions such as caves and mountains for those who like to wander on the wild side. Why not fully immerse yourself in the fascinating Romanian culture by learning how to speak the language?Plus, if you happen to run into Dracula in your travels, perhaps hell spare your life if you impress him enough with your stellar Romanian skills.Okay, now its officially time to jump in.Expose yourself to something new and interesting.Expand your world and your mind by learning one of these awesome languages.Youll thank yourself later!

Brain training via the computer does it work

Brain training via the computer â€" does it work There has been a strong trend in recent years towards 'educational' computer games which are thought to aid brain efficiency. These games, which usually take the form of puzzles such as number games and word teasers, have been endorsed by celebrities including Julie Walters, Patrick Stewart and Nicole Kidman. How effective are they as educational aids? Brain training, in any form, is a recognised hypothesis that keeping the brain active can decrease the possibility of degenerative illness, such as dementia, later in life. However, conclusive proof of the theory's validity has not been achieved although studies have been completed which suggest a strong correlation. The most famous computer brand is Brain Training: How Old is Your Brain? developed in association with Professor Ryuta Kawashima, a Japanese neuroscientist. The manufacturer, Nintendo, has been careful to emphasise that the games are not scientifically validated, but are instead inspired by Kawashima's work. Studies on the effectiveness of the game have been inconclusive and general opinion seems to be that any brain training performed on a computer is no more effective than that carried out with pen and paper. The games are strongly based on mathematics and logic, so can they provide a fun addition to these types of curricula? Do you believe they can offer benefits in cognitive development and health, or are children better off sticking with traditional educational resources and tuition?
