Carnegie Learning

Carnegie LearningCarnegie Learning is one of the most respected online schools for business executives to learn how to lead. It uses the teachings of legendary corporate guru Henry Ford and his motivation method of driving an individual to take action. The method is embodied in the M.I.T. MBA Business Plan award-winning method.Students at Carnegie Learning can choose a strategic plan, an online course for learning leadership or a conventional course of learning leadership in the MBA school. Because of the academic quality and unique educational experience at Carnegie Learning, many people consider it to be among the best business schools.A theoretical explanation of the core lessons of learning leadership that exists in the MBA Business Plan curriculum is that one learns how to promote one's vision through the processes of influence, initiative, project management, collaboration, emotional intelligence, and leadership with others. The latter system requires creativity, effective comm unication and strategy.The online course gives students a comprehensive learning style of learning, something that is usually associated with self-directed learning. Those that are willing to work at learning new things can graduate on time.As you can see, Carnegie Learning serves as a program that fits in nicely with the curriculum of your MBA program. Not only do students get to learn from the world's most respected masters of business and leadership, but they are also taught that self-interest is healthy, and not the only way to get ahead. You can study any subject in the program in the classroom.The faculty and students at Carnegie Learning are superior to that of the traditional business schools. The curriculum at Carnegie Learning is differentiated from the mainstream MBA curriculum by the use of one of the world's most successful business methods in the education of its students. As such, students will learn how to follow the roadmaps of success laid out by Ford and his teams in his book, 'How to Win at Business' so that they can enter the workforce and succeed in an environment of the workplace culture that promotes self-interest.If you are working on a business education plan, I would recommend enrolling in Carnegie Learning if you need to learn how to apply one of the world's most successful business principles to work in the business world. You can also combine your business education with one of the innovative business learning services that the school provides.

Rise Of Foreign Language Enrollment

Rise Of Foreign Language Enrollment Foreign languages are making a comeback. Modest? Sure. Slight? Yes. But a comeback indeed, as enrollment in foreign language majors has been rising steadily, according to the Washington Post. Enrollment in every foreign language has been consistently rising slightly, according to a new survey by the Modern Language Association of America, published in the Washington Post. The trend of all foreign languages rising slightly is fairly new. Language enrollments for French, German, Italian, Latin, Russian and Japanese have been on enrollment roller coasters, experiencing short-lived ups and down in, according to past surveys by the Modern Language Association of America. However, the Modern Language Association of America found that all languages are rising at a steady rate, since 2000. Overall, enrollment in foreign languages rose 6.6% since 2006, growing from 1,577,810 in 2006 to 1,682,627 in 2009. Spanish, French and German still remain to be the most popular languages, respectively. Spanish has always been the most popular language, garnering more students than all the other languages combined. However, Spanish enrollment has leveled off slightly, standing at 865,000 national students, compared to 765,000 for all other languages. French, which was more popular in the 1960s topping off with an enrollment of 388,000 in 1968, has decreased since to 215,000; however, it has been rising slightly similar to other languages in recent years. German also peaked in 1968 at an enrollment of 215,000; then it continuously lost enrollment until lately, now standing just shy of 100,000. Italian enrollment, however, has risen fairly steadily since 1960, now standing at 80,000 students. American Sign Language is rising faster than any of the other languages, shooting ahead of Italian, gaining over 90,000 students in college classrooms throughout the nation. American Sign Language grew from nearly nothing in the 1990s, showing colleges and universities that it is a language worth studying. Chinese and Japanese are growing rapidly; however, their enrollment numbers cant quite compete with other languages, standing at 70,000 and 60,000 for Japanese and Chinese, respectively. This trend could make foreign languages more ubiquitous at colleges, as colleges attempt to respond to the increase of demand in studying foreign languages. If this trend continues colleges, high schools and grade schools will need more foreign language teachers, giving current and future foreign language students more potential career paths.

You Might Be an Introvert.... - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / You Might Be an Introvert.... - Introvert Whisperer You Might Be an Introvert. I’m going to combine Jeff Foxworthy’s “you know you might be a redneck if” with a conversation I had this morning about traits of introverts. You might be an introvert if In some group settings, you are the one listening quietly. You hate “small talk”. You prefer intimate one on one interactions with people rather than being in a group. (Think coffee versus party) You’re happy when someone cancels. You can get up and talk to instruct or share information you know well but dread being in a social event where you don’t know most of the people. The idea of a forced group discussion sounds bad to you. You’re occasionally invisible. You are perfectly happy doing things by yourself. You think “working a room” is worse than a root canal. You’re exhausted after attending a meeting where you pretty much didn’t say anything or do anything other than sit. Sometimes you don’t turn on the TV, radio or music because the silence is so delicious. Sometimes you need to be alone. You are chatty with some people like family, friends or people you know well but not in groups that include people you don’t know. (And this makes you think you aren’t an introvert) Sometimes being social is simply being in the same room as another person. If any of these sounds like you, you might be an introvert. Go to top Let me emphasize that Self-Promotion doesn’t have to be obnoxious to be effective.  But, if you don’t Self-Promote you, who will? If you ever want to get ahead, you have to learn how to Self-Promote. I want to help you accelerate your career by connecting you with your Free Instant Access to my video that shows you simple, yet effective ways to Self-Promote. Start watching now by clicking here!

Avoiding and Preparing For the Potential Lay Off - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Avoiding and Preparing For the Potential Lay Off - Introvert Whisperer Avoiding and Preparing For the Potential Lay Off The idea of getting laid off is a bit more terrorizing thought than in days gone by.  Right now, job loss means facing the possibility that there are fewer jobs out there to get and employers being unclear if hiring is the right business decision.  Losing a job these days is a scary thought.  Laying people off is a constant in businesses and all too frequent in this past decade.  A new saying has been coined: “All jobs are temporary”.  It does seem to be the case, but there are things you can and should do to prepare. Don’t be in Denial The first thing you need to do is to make sure you aren’t being in denial about your personal standing at work and the business you are working for.  In my 21+ years managing in big business, I can’t tell you how many times I spoke to people who said “I didn’t see it coming” when informed of being laid off.  Some of those people worked for me.  Prior to the moment of informing them that they no longer had a job, I spent countless hours communicating about what was to come, informing them of layoff criteria.  Yet, they sat there totally astonished and ticked off.  It never failed to stun me, just how many people simply wouldn’t pay attention.  Other managers had the same thing to report.  Denial about the reality of your situation, especially right now, will only make your situation worse.  Your denial will cause you to lack preparedness emotionally, financially and professionally. Certainly, there are businesses that aren’t as proactive or sensitive to their employees.  In fact, I admit there are businesses that operate by the seat of the pants so much that they don’t even know they’re in trouble until they notice the heat from their hair on fire.  But despite that, there are often warning signs. Be Aware of Warning Signs Warning signs in large businesses usually have some kind of public communication.  If your company is publicly traded, they have to inform their shareholders of business downturns and profit issues.  You can count on the communication to sound positive and upbeat.  Often times, this upbeat sound kind of “dulls” the impact of the issues.  To be fair, if a company is having problems, they do want to ensure they understand the issues and are taking action.  Your best tactic is to listen to both the bad and good news, ensuring you aren’t missing the bad news messages because of the positive.  Try to personalize the bad newsâ€"how is this going to impact you or the area in which you work?  If you can’t translate it down to your level, ask your management what it might mean.  Do your homework.  Ask people inside the company and outside until you have multiple points of view.  THEN, decide if this is your early warning sign. Warning signs in small businesses are harder to detect.  If your company is small but well run, it may be easier.  Obviously, if they are good at communicating, listen to it carefully.  If they aren’t, look for things like, not rehiring when someone leaves, depleting inventory, if you and other workers aren’t busy, and even things like not meeting payroll on time.  Any activity that requires money to make it happen will usually be the first thing that gets stopped or cut back.  Even though warning signs in small companies are harder to detect, with a bit of observation, they can be seen. Obviously, there are always those businesses that have and give no warning signs.  If you have been the recipient of a layoff in this situation, you have my deepest sympathy.  I have known people to get raises and promotions one week and laid off the next.  I’m not saying that all situations generate warning signs.  I am saying, most of them do have warning signs, and I’m pointing out that too many people prefer to ignore or deny the reality of their situation. Prepare.  My second piece of advice is to prepare as if you will lose your job.  Get your personal financial situation in order.  Eliminate debt and create an emergency fund.  If you lose your job, the thing that will cause the biggest stress will be a mountain of debt that you have no means to repay.  With that debt gone and having an emergency fund, if you lose your job, you can proceed with greater confidence that you and your family will be okay for a while.  As you know, your personal confidence plays a huge role in getting a job in the first place.  If you are panic stricken, you dull your intelligence and problem-solving abilities, both things critical to job search. Get yourself ready for a job search  Update your resume’.  Ensure you have letters of reference, job reviews, any documents that support your performance that you might need.    Do your homework.  Identify where you would start your job search.  Make sure your network is warmed up and you’ve renewed old relationships. If appropriate, start sending out “feelers” to see what situation other companies are in for hiring.  If you are really sure the pink slip is coming, go ahead and start the process.  It’s much easier to find a job when you have a job, and right now there is a growing bias against hiring people who are unemployed.  Get ahead of the power curve. Do you know what your next career step is?   Many people don’t.

Discover Your Voice Type

Discover Your Voice Type How Can You Find Out What Voice Type You Have? ChaptersThe Different Types of VoicesYou Can’t Choose Your Voice TypeLearn to Adapt to Your TessituraTame Your Voice Type“As long as we live, there is never enough singing.” - Martin LutherSinging attracts far more people than you may think. Our voice allows us to express different emotions through our intonation, which we can manage through our breathing. Your voice also allows you to sing, giving rise to some incredible talent. There are plenty of conservatories and music schools looking to find these talents.If you want to discover your talents, you need to work out what your voice is capable of, whether or not you can hit the high notes, etc.There are different factors that can affect your voice: vocal cords, warm-ups, etc.So how can you work out what type of voice you have? Can you become a vocal coach without knowing your own tessitura?This is what we’re going to have a look at in this article!Check out the singing lessons near me here.

Biology plays a role when it comes to your voice type or tessitura. In addition to your vocal range, you should be aware of what type of vocal character you have. (Source: StockSnap)Female VoicesThere are four main types of female voice:Sopranos. The most common type of female voices is also the type covering the highest range of notes.Mezzo-sopranos. Many children also fall into this voice range. This is the higher end of the mid-range voices.Altos. This is a deeper female voice.Contraltos. This is quite rare and the deepest female voices.Male VoicesThere are four main types of male voices, too:Countertenor. The highest male voice.Tenor. This is a high-pitched chest voice.Baritone. This voice type is common among men.Bass. This is the deepest of all voice types.You Can’t Choose Your Voice TypeYou can’t choose your voice type. You’re born with it and it’ll change over time. It’s your instrument and reflects your character, desires, and ambition. You can't change what type of voice you have; you just have to work with it and get the most out of it. (Source: you111811)A singer’s voice is affected by several criteria including your breathing, your voice box, etc. For example, a deep voice is often due to larger and thicker vocal cords.  The power of your lungs and the capacity of your nasopharynx will also affect the type of voice you’ll have.Rather than trying to change your voice, you should try and own it, work on it, and fine-tune it. Of all the ways to do this, these are some of the best:Adopt a good posture so that you can breathe more easily.Breathe with your diaphragm. This takes some work so make sure your stomach pushes out when you breathe in and tenses as you breathe out.Articulate each consonant and vowel.In addition to determining your voice type, you also need to own it so that you can master it. Of course, every voice is different and they won’t fit perfectly into the classifications. There are a lot of di fferent types.Learn to Adapt to Your Tessitura“Singing is a way of escaping. It's another world. I'm no longer on earth.” - Edith PiafYou may be tempted to define your own voice but there are tools out there to help you work out your tessitura. Tessitura is the range of notes that a singer can sing comfortably. Whether you sing solo or in a group, you need to work within your vocal range. (Source: Skitterphoto)In short, if you can comfortably sing a song from start to finish, it’ll mean that the song is for your tessitura. If this isn’t the case, you’ll need to adapt or find a new song. The world of music is unwavering.  Your voice is the fertile earth from which a musical flower can bloom. As you’ve seen the different types (alto, bass, countertenor, etc.), you need to know exactly what yours is.There are tools you can use to work out what your vocal range is. If you’ve got a computer and a microphone, you’re all set.  Once you know your range, you’ll know what your voice type is. If you still can’t work it out, you might want to get in touch with a singing teacher. You can do this through a test session.Working out your vocal range is easy, isn’t it?Just get in touch with a tutor from Superprof. In the space of an hour, you’ll know what your voice type is and the type of songs you should be singing. Go for it!  Improvising is good, but knowing what you’re working with will save you a lot of time. Don’t forget that your voice will be with you your entire life.Discover some of the most treasured singing lessons near me here.Tame Your Voice TypeWe mentioned it earlier, but once you know your voice type, you can start owning and taming it. While there are a few main categories of voice, there are as many different voices as there are singers. (Source: RonPorter)It’s essential that you work on it. It’s a good idea to record yourself to learn what your voice is capable of. Additionally, you’ll be able to work out your vocal strengths and weaknesses.Listen several times and work on the parts you’re struggling with.This will also help you choose what songs to sing.How?Find singers who have the same tessitura as you.If you’re a contralto, for example, here are some singers with the same voice type:Nina SimoneAlicia KeysAmy WinehouseIf you’re a tenor, you can choose from the following:Freddie MercuryJust TimberlakePaul McCartneySinging these stars’ songs are a good way to practise and enjoy using your voice.  You can also listen to songs you like and see what your voice type is.You might love Mariah Carey and find singing her songs quite easy. Maybe you love Elvis Presley and never struggle singing along to The King.In the first case, you’re probably a soprano and in the second case, you’re probably a baritone. This is a simple and effective way to work out your voice type.Working out your voice type is quite easy, mastering it is a different kettle of fish, especially if you’re joining a choir or auditioning for a musical. Your tessitura is yours and yours alone so make the most of it.Everyone's vocal folds are different and while vocal ranges can be broadened through vocal exercises, a voice teacher can only do so much. Your vocal training and voice lessons will focus on getting the most out of your voice type, be it a mezzo-soprano, bass-baritone, or tenor voice.You can also learn more about registers from a singing coach or tutor. They can even show you artists with the same tessitura as you. Again, a tutor can help you work out the best repertoire.  If you'd like to learn more about singing, consider getting help from one of the talented tutors on Superprof. There are three mai n types of singing tutorial and voice coaching and each type has several advantages and disadvantages so what's right for one student may not be right for another.In face-to-face tutorials, there's just you and the tutor. This means that the tutor can focus on helping you to improve your voice and will put together a bespoke programme for you to follow. These are usually the most costly type of private tutorials since you're paying for all the tutor's time both in and out of class but they're also the most cost-effective.There are also online tutorials where the student is taught via webcam. With the tutor not having to travel to their lessons and being able to schedule more lessons per week, these tend to cost less per hour than face-to-face tutorials. Since the tutor isn't in the room there with you, these tutorials are better for academic subjects rather than vocational ones. If you both have a good microphone and a good internet connection, online tutorials are a great option fo r those wanting to learn to sing on a budget.Finally, there are also tutors offering group tutorials. If you and a group of friends are interested in learning how to sing, you could hire a tutor together and divide the cost of the tutor's time. Of course, you won't get as much individual attention from your singing coach as you would in the other types of tutorials but you will pay less per hour per student.No matter which type of singing coach you go for, they'll be able to help you work out your voice type, plan lessons that can help you improve your voice, and suggest songs and activities that work best with your tessitura.

Westerly Hills Academy Becomes HEARTs 5th Partner School

Westerly Hills Academy Becomes HEARTs 5th Partner School Westerly Hills Academy Becomes HEARTs 5th Partner School Westerly Hills Academy Becomes HEARTs 5th Partner School March 25, 2015 HEART Tutoring volunteers began working with 27 third graders at Westerly Hills Academy in January. Westerly Hills, located at 4420 Denver Avenue in West Charlotte, is HEARTs fifth Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools partner school. As the third graders face their first state End-Of-Grade tests, volunteers are focusing on filling in some conceptual gaps in number concepts. The tutors also help build confidence through mentoring and encouragement. The students are working on foundational number sense concepts ranging from the concept of “more” and “less” to decomposing numbers and understanding place value. Of the 28 weekly volunteer tutors, 24 are members of First Presbyterian Church in Fourth Ward. Westerly Hills is First Presbyterians public school partner for community outreach and engagement. The remaining tutors come from companies including Fifth Third Bank and Amec Foster Wheeler. Volunteers spend one hour per week delivering HEART’s lesson plans and receive support from an on-site Program Coordinator. I am glad we can provide a way for Westerly Hills partners to engage as tutors and for Westerly Hills students to receive one-on-one academic attention and encouragement, said Emily Elliott, HEARTs Executive Director. It is a pleasure to work with Principal Gwen Shannon and Math Facilitator Stefanie McBryde. I am excited about the third graders’ progress so far! HEARTs other CMS partner schools are Billingsville Leadership Academy, Highland Renaissance Academy, Montclaire Elementary, and Winterfield Elementary.

Movie Restaurants

College Kids Wish They Could Work in These 10 TV/Movie Restaurants Image via commons.wikimedia.org Working in a restaurant may not be the dream of most college kids, but it usually is a reality. Instead of working two dull shifts at your local diner, wouldn’t you rather be working somewhere with a little more character? Though they may not be completely real, there are many fictional establishments that college students prefer over the real thing. Let’s be honest, your usual “What can I get for you today” routine could use some intrigue provided by these television and movie stars. From hilarious hijinks to secrets and adventure, these 10 TV and movie restaurants have everything a college student worker is looking for. 1. Bob’s Burgers (Bob’s Burgers) Tensions may be high while working at Bob’s Burgers, especially with your fierce rival Jimmy’s Pesto Pizzeria right across the street. Every day is a new adventure because you never know what kind of bad luck is going to strike the restaurant next, but at least you always get a good laugh. Plus, you’ll always have the scoop on what weird business has just moved in next door. 2. Krusty Krab (Spongebob Squarepants) Depending on your personality type, the Krusty Krab may be heaven on Earth or the worst place in the world. With frequent break-ins and theft attempts by the wily Plankton, you always have to be on the top of your game. You won’t mind, even if it means losing a few dollars because of stingy Mr. Krabs. 3. Paddy’s Pub (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) If you like working with interesting (if not crazy) co-workers, then you’re bound to love working at Paddy’s Pub. The place may be a bit run down, but you’ll never run out of stories to tell your friends after every shift. It’s hard to believe what The Gang did this week. 4. Inn at the Crossroads (Game of Thrones) Tired of job searching in the North or just need to stop on your journey for some temporary work? Look no further than the Inn at the Crossroads where you’ll hang out with Hot Pie and chow down on some dire wolf bread and kidney pie. Be careful about what you say though, some sketchy characters may pass through. 5. Central Perk (Friends) Working at Central Perk gives you the chance to not only befriend some of the infamous Friends  but also to work with one! Central Perk brings in countless amounts of regulars and even more weird shenanigans. So pour yourself a cup of coffee and get ready! 6. Los Pollos Hermanos (Breaking Bad) Even if the Spanish name isn’t grammatically correct, your time working at Los Pollos Hermanos won’t be time wasted. Just make sure that you turn a blind eye to the sketchy things that go on behind closed doors. You don’t want to get wrapped up in whatever that Walter White is doing. After all, something delicious is always cooking. 7. Monk’s Cafe (Seinfeld) Even if the coffee is crappy and the chef can’t make an egg, you wouldn’t want to miss out on working at Monk’s Cafe. Just think of the interesting characters and conversations that flow through on a regular basis. Who knows? Maybe George will even give you a flirty smile. 8. McLaren’s Pub (How I Met Your Mother) While working at McLaren’s, the drunken regulars may be getting annoying, but at least they’re hilarious. Sometimes they sing on tables, sometimes they get behind the bar, and sometimes they hit on every girl that moves. But hey, word on the street is that the pub makes a pretty good burger. 9. Pizza Planet (Toy Story) Pizza Planet was probably the place of your childhood dreams, even if it was a bit of a challenge for the toys of Toy Story. On your breaks, you can sample the pizza, try your hand at the claw machine, and maybe even drive the famed Pizza Planet truck. What’s better than that? 10. The Winchester (Sean of the Dead) A classic British pub serving up classic British pints makes the Winchester a second home to most patrons. Plus, if you work there, you’ll feel a lot safer just in case, you know, the zombie apocalypse happens. After your shift, you can hang out, have a beer, and wait for the whole thing to blow over. As long as you’re keen to laugh at mishaps and malfunctions, you’re probably a great fit for many of these fictional places. Let’s be honest, with some rather weird customers and even stranger coworkers, you wouldn’t be working there for the wages. You’d be working there for the free entertainment and maybe a few free meals. But whether they’re animated or realistic, funny or daunting, it can’t hurt to imagine what it would be like as a worker in these made-up worlds.

GCSE English and maths - more important than ever!

GCSE English and maths - more important than ever! It's not so much about how many GCSEs you obtain but what GCSEs you obtain. This may seem to be a surprising statement to make but recent research has found that there is a strong link between cities that have a high youth unemployment rate with the lack of GCSE English and Maths. Between 2007 and 2010 nearly 50% of pupils living in cities left education without GCSE grades A* to C in these subjects. In Hastings and Grimsby where youth unemployment stood at 8.4% and 8.8% respectively between 2007 and 2010, the percentage reaching the official government benchmark of five A* -C GCSEs, including English and maths was 35% and 45%. However, in Cambridge, where youth unemployment stood at 1.3% for the same period, young people obtaining five good GCSEs including maths and English reached 54%. The above findings appear to reflect that over the last few years, schools have been encouraging pupils to study for qualifications that are seen as easier to achieve to boost their position in league tables. Pupils living in cities that have less buoyant economies are not being equipped with the skills required in the changing labour market. The consequences could leave young people with less employment opportunities in cities where skills in English and maths are in high demand. The government is taking steps to rebalance these issues to ensure schools are equipping young people with the basic numeracy and literacy skills they will need to get a job. The Office for National Statistics in October showed the UK jobless total for 16 -to 25 year-olds, hit a record high of 991,000 between June and August 2011. If you want to boost your grades in English and Maths, consider one to one tuition, we have tutors that can help with a variety of learning styles.
