The Chemistry Tutor and Greys Anatomy
The Chemistry Tutor and Grey's AnatomyThe Chemistry Teacher and Dr Glazer discuss some of the mechanics of medical chemistry. 'We understand the genetic code, we understand the chemical bonds and the connection between the DNA and the proteins and the enzymes that make it all happen.' And they also see a major difference between chemistry and science.Dr. Glazer is the chemistry teacher in the second season of Grey's Anatomy. Now I am not sure whether she was originally going to be called Dr Glazer, but Grey's cast a very good looker and went with the name they did.While Dr Glazer does discuss some aspects of the mechanics of medical chemistry, she is primarily concerned with teaching the patient. This is very clear when the catheter is not working properly, Dr Glazer explains the physiology of the catheter in medical terms, she is there to teach.The chemistry tutor is more concerned with the chemistry and what happens at the bedside. She demonstrates the chemistry with staining the b lood and how it affects the chemistry. She is of course interested in the outcome for the patient and is quick to inform the patient that he or she needs to see her again.The chemistry tutor is also concerned with the patient's mood, for example she doesn't care if the patient sleeps or doesn't. There are numerous examples throughout the show of the chemistry tutor showing concern about what the patient is feeling and the patient's response. The chemistry tutor is a human being, a teacher and a friend.Grey's Anatomy is an excellent show that has created their own chemistry teacher. You can expect great chemistry lessons from Dr. Glazer. The show also has a very strong character study of the chemistry teacher, as well as a great storyline.Grey's Anatomy and the chemistry tutor have created their own chemistry teacher. Hopefully the chemistry tutor will have her own book, which can cover the different mechanics of chemistry and all the questions that a student might have.

What is the GED Test and How to Get Your GED - Private Tutoring
What is the GED Test and How to Get Your GED BobbiM Dec 27, 2015 You have made the decision to take the GED and get the certificate equivalent to a high school diploma. What is the next step? The next step and the most important one, of course, is preparation. Since the new GED tests came out, people are struggling more than before to pass it and earn the certificate because there is no chance of combining the scores from multiple attempts. This makes the test harder and more challenging, but it is certainly not impossible to ace it. All you need is good organization, time, dedication and strong will to pass it. Preparing for the GED Exam There are several steps you need to take to start preparing yourself properly for the GED test. Here are the most important of them: Get to Know the Requirements for Your State There are different GED exam requirements depending on the state you live in. Find out what are the requirements you need to meet for your country and double check the information youâve found. Get all the information you can at the official GED website and online in general or ask someone who has already been through the GED locally and can help you. They can tell you where to find all the information needed and what to start with. It is important you do this step first, so you donât study something that is not needed, and vice versa. Being exact with the subjects that you have to study will be of great help: you will focus on what is important and make sure you nail it on the exam when you take it. Get Informed The second step is to know what you have to study. Search the internet and visit the official GED website and get informed about the test. What sections are there? How many different areas are there in every section? What are the types of questions, etc. Gather all the information you can and get to know what the GED test looks like. Find an example of the test online and check it out. There are many useful websites and comments on the internet so donât be lazy and read them through. We guarantee you it will be much easier getting prepared and again, later on when taking the exam to know exactly how it will look and the question types that you will see. The Book Hunt After you understand what you need to know and how the test is laid out, itâs time to find the right study material. GED exams are quite common in the US, and you can find prep books in any library or bookshop, all you need to do is start the hunt and find the best ones. Check the official site and see what they recommend. Ask the librarian if he or she has any other manuals to help you out and take them too. Itâs important you find the right sources for studying with up to date information and correct answers. Make a GED Study Schedule If you are busy (like most of GED exam attendants are), it is crucial you find enough time for your GED preparations. You know how important this test is to you, so you should re-schedule your days and make enough time for studying. Divide the sections and study one section per day so you donât get confused or overwhelmed and mess up the information youâre trying to memorize. Use all the time you can efficiently. There are amazing apps for your Smartphone you can download and take with you wherever you go. Check them out and use the time while traveling to work to revisit what you learned last night. Study Space Make sure you have your study space at home, where you can sit in silence and study the various sections of the GED. Concentration is the No.1 thing when it comes to memorizing the material youâre studying. Psychological studies show if you have poor concentration, you can study for hours, and you still wonât remember much, so donât waste your precious time. Have enough time to prepare for studying, make sure you are alone or, at least, no one is disturbing you. Learn about studying tips, such as the dynamic of the studying (study 20-30 minutes and make a 10 minute break to rest your brain). Turn off your cell phone and other electronics that may disturb you during your studying. Let me repeat that â" Turn*Off*Your*Phone! âGED Classes Near Meâ? Find all the help you can. Search the internet for GED classes near your location and start with the classes as soon as possible. GED prep classes will help you relieve the stress and make you feel more confident about the exam. You wonât be studying at home all alone and stressing out how you wonât make it. In the class, you will meet other people who are trying just like you, and you will meet a teacher or a professional instructor who will help you with your studying. The teacher will always be there to explain you anything you are not sure about and to give you extra information if you need any. Classes can be fun, and you will feel better after taking them, rather than studying on your own. GED Online Classes Use the internet as much as you can to help you with the GED exam. The online community of GED attendants is vast, and there are many online classes you can take in the comfort of your home. It is a great idea because you donât have to lose time on going to or from a class in your area and you can feel more comfortable at home than with unknown people around you. Private Tutoring for GED If you learn better or feel more comfortable with someone one on on, you might want to consider this option. When hiring a private tutor, you are organizing your study schedule the way it suits you best plus you get a professional who will guide you through the material and be there to answer any question you have.

Take GED Practice Tests Online There are GED practice tests online that you can and should take. Whether you have a private GED tutor or are studying on your own, these practice tests will help. You will get familiar with the type of the questions, and you will see what your weak spots are. Doing tests online will also show you the final score once you finish, so you will see where you stand. Since math is one of the most problematic areas, doing math GED practice tests is the best thing you can do if you want to be sure you wonât panic when the real GED comes.

A math GED practice test will show you how it will look on the real exam, and you will feel more comfortable once you start doing the real math GED exam. Be Positive! When enrolling in any GED prep classes or with GED tutors, donât have a negative attitude from the very beginning. It is important you stay positive because you will have more will power and concentration while studying. Donât look at the GED exam as something scary and impossible to pass. Look at it as a way to widen your knowledge and secure a better future for yourself. Approach it with a positive attitude and be excited about all the new information you will get to know!

7 Reasons to Study Abroad in the UK
7 Reasons to Study Abroad in the UK Why You Should Study Abroad in the UK Doing a semester abroad or even a year abroad can be a fabulous experience for any college student many of our Orange County academic tutors have studied abroad. However, many American students wonder how they will get along in a country where English is not the primary language. Studying and living abroad is a fantastic cultural and educational experience regardless of any language barriers or cultural shock a student might feel. I chose to study abroad in the UK and I recommend that you consider it as well (READ: Why You Should Study Abroad). 1. No Language Barrier If youâre American, there is not a language barrier when traveling to and living in the UK. The Queens English is a slightly different dialect than Standard American English but most travelers wonât notice much of a difference and certainly not a barrier. 2. An Affordable Transportation System The UK has an efficient and affordable public transportation system. Students who want to see more than just the university town that they are living in can easily get around by train, bus, coach (long-distance bus) or on foot. Personally, I preferred the train to busses as most train stations put you directly in the center of whichever town or city you wish to visit. 3. History, Architecture, and Art American students studying in the UK will have the opportunity to view 600 year old architecture, visit many historical sites that far outdate that of the newer USA, and visit a Mecca of art and history museums (CLICK: Top 10 museums in London). Image via timeout.com 4. International Cities The UK is rather international these days, especially in cities like London. If you want to visit all of Europe, but donât have the means, spend a bit of time in the city and you will likely encounter people and food from all around Europe and beyond. 5. Charming Small Towns Live the small town experience. I lived in a small town, in which I could walk the perimeter in about 3 hours. It is very convenient to be able to get to the local café, tea shop, supermarket etc all within short walking distance of any given university or student flat (apartment). 6. Spend Your Weekends in Other European Countries The UK, in many ways, is the gateway to Europe. Many students that I studied with lived and learned in England but spent many long weekends on the European continent enjoying the life and culture of exciting and beautiful countries such as France, Germany and Italy. (If you stay in the big cities like Paris, Berlin and Florence, you will likely be okay with just English.) 7. Visit all the Countries in the United Kingdom by Train or Boat The UK consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, all of which have different cultures and histories. Americans with a UK student visa should easily be able to visit all of these countries by train or ferry (big boat). A Few Drawbacks The primary drawback to studying and living in the UK is that the local currency BPS (British Pound Sterling) is so darn strong. For Americans, this means that your US Dollar doesnât go as far as you might think. Basically ignore the exchange rate when you budget your spending in the UK. In my experience a $2 cup of coffee in the US will cost you 2 BPS in the UK. Do, however, think about the exchange rate when you plan on how much savings you might need before you go (READ: 7 Tips for Studying While Traveling). A Few Tips Before Arriving in the UK Check with your bank to see if your credit/debit card will work in the UK.England uses a different system called âchip and pinâ. Buy a pay-as-you-go phone and keep at least 20 BPS on it so that you can make local calls (alternatively you can purchase an international plan from your current carrier). Water is not free at cafes and restaurants in the UK, so plan to pay for it. In smaller towns, the last train might leave or arrive as early as 5 PM so check the train schedule ahead of time. Trains do not âarrive atâ they âcall atâ but it means the same thing. The UK uses the 24 hour clock so 5 PM is really 1700. VAT or Value Added Tax in included in anything you purchase so the price you see is the price you pay. All blog entries, with the exception of guest bloggers, are written by Tutor Nerds.

6 Questions That Will Make You Stand Out at Your Internship
6 Questions That Will Make You Stand Out at Your Internship via Pixabay #1 How Would You Evaluate My Performance So Far? Rather than wondering how you are doing at your internship, get the courage to ask your supervisor how they think you are doing. This question shows your supervisor that you are self-aware and concerned about how you are performing in your role at the company. It shows that you show interest in succeeding and leaving a mark at the company when your internship is over. You may also learn that you arenât performing as well as you thought you were. This gives you a great opportunity to change your behavior and work ethic to really stand out at your internship in a positive way. #2 Are There Any Skills That I Should Improve? Supervisors and managers appreciate an employee or intern who is always looking to better themselves in their role. This question opens the window for feedback and constructive criticism that can be extremely beneficial to you both during your internship and later down the road when you start your career. Follow this question by asking how you should improve these skills. This will give you some direction about how to go about improving yourself at your internship. #3 Where Do You See This Company/Industry Going? There arenât too many students who like to think about the future or the bigger picture. This question will make you stand out at your internship because it shows that you are interested in the future of the company and the industry. You will show your internship supervisor that you like to plan ahead and want to adapt and stay relevant within the industry or company. This also gives you the opportunity to offer your own thoughts about the company. #4 Am I a Good Fit for this Career Path? Not everyone is cut out for every career. Internships are a great way to determine if you would like to pursue a career in a certain industry. However, if you are unsure if you would be successful in that career path, donât hesitate to ask your supervisor. Since they have been working in the industry much longer, they can honestly tell you if you have what it takes to succeed. While as a college student you may not succeed automatically, your supervisor can offer suggestions on what you can work on and skills you should acquire that will help you succeed in that career path after graduation. #5 How Should I Network in this Industry? Networking is one skill every college student should master. You never know who you are going to meet and how they can help you advance your career later on in life. The best place to start networking is at your internship. Talk to different employees and make connections with the other interns while working there. If you are nervous or hesitant about networking, ask your supervisor for some tips on how to network with people in your industry. They may offer you some topics to talk about or even networking events to attend in the area. #6 Whatâs the Difference Between a Good and a Great Intern? Always go above and beyond when it comes to a job. You never want to complete a job and have people think it was only half completed or rushed. When you ask this question, it will make you stand out at your internship because it shows that you donât want to just be a âgoodâ intern, but a âgreatâ one! You want to exceed expectations and go the extra mile when it comes to getting the job done. There is no better skill in the workplace than striving to succeed. Stand Out at Your Internship There are many ways to stand out at your internship. One way to stand out is by asking your supervisor questions. These questions will separate you from other interns because they show that you are interested in succeeding in your internship and what you think about the bigger picture. They show that you are self-aware and looking to make changes if needed. These qualities all make up a great employee, which can ultimately land you a job with the company after graduation.

Why Is an AP Chemistry Outline Important?
Why Is an AP Chemistry Outline Important?An AP Chemistry outline is basically a list of all the material that is necessary for the final exam, written for an AP test, and should include lecture notes, test examples, and the materials for practice tests. It is a very useful guide to prepare for an AP test as it can provide you with ideas on how to approach each section in the course of the test, the topics to be studied, and what to prepare yourself for.The most important component of an AP Chemistry outline is the list of materials. You should get at least four copies, one for each of the four parts of the exam. This will allow you to write out each lesson and be sure that you have the materials you need for each topic covered on your own.As you are writing your exam outline, make sure that you keep this in mind: your total learning time is going to be longer than a study guide for AP science. Do not try to cram so much into an outline that it becomes a study guide, but instead treat it more like a reference book. A good outline will offer you a comprehensive and complete look at all four parts of the AP exam, covering all the different types of subject material you will encounter. There are different types of outlines for different subjects, but generally, the three main ones are the science outline, the career advice outline, and the reference outline.One advantage of the science outline is that you can cut a lot of unnecessary material from the outline. If you are taking the AP Chem exam, then you should study chemistry at the rate that has been recommended by a few of the top test-prep companies. You may find that your personal experience or even the experience of your parents or teachers will help you with this approach.For career advice, you can use either a career guide or simply go with your gut feelings. You can also use the career advice guide to help you avoid some common mistakes you may make in your study. For example, you could think about the car eer advice guide when you are stuck on an idea, which can also be very helpful.When you write your own chemistry outline, make sure that you know how to do it effectively. If you are not very familiar with the format of an AP Chem exam, you might want to consult a reference guide or a career advice guide. Make sure that you consider your learning style as well, and make sure that you make the most of the outline. Take into account all the concepts, answer the questions, and end your outline on a high note.An outline can help you prepare for your AP test, but it is also important to understand the type of test that you are taking. Just take everything you can from a study guide and do not forget to take other aspects into consideration, such as the test length, topics to study, and preparation for how to approach the exam itself.

Photo credit: U.S. Consulate Vladivostok on Visualhunt.comCost of a Bachelor of Music in DrummingIf you want to go into drumming professionally, you should consider getting a degree at one of the UKâs music academies. This will generally be a BA in Music Performance (specialising in Drums) taking 3-4 years to complete. Some offer postgraduate degrees.The advantage of going for a diploma is that you will not only be learning to play the drums, you will also be getting a solid foundation in music theory, history of drum music, composition, rhythm and drum notation. Some will encourage you to master several percussion instruments, increasing your range, though others will let you specialise in a specific type of drum.You will also be practising more intensely. While you might otherwise take a lesson with a drum instructor once or twice a week, here you will have classes every day, in a classroom and one-to-one with a drum teacher, as well as daily practice.
