Professores da LOI English Jonathan Johnson

Professores da LOI English Jonathan Johnson Na minha opinião, o mais interessante de ter aulas com professores nativos é ter a possibilidade de experimentar falar Inglês com pessoas de diferentes países anglófonos. A riqueza dos sotaques e a pluralidade cultural são pontos que me fascinam enquanto eterna estudante de Inglês, por isso mesmo adorei a conversa que tive com Jonathan Johnson, um dos professores da LOI English que é nativo da África do Sul.Natural da Cidade do Cabo, Jonathan já viveu em Roma e Milão, na Itália, e agora reside em Paris, na França. Ele é um apaixonado por diferentes culturas e está aprendendo a falar Francês, sendo que já é fluente em Africâner e Italiano, para além do Inglês, é claro.Jonathan tem alunos de todos os cantos do mundo, sendo a maioria brasileiros, japoneses, italianos, espanhóis e russos. Segundo ele, os seus alunos brasileiros são normalmente do Rio e de São Paulo. O professor comentou que os brasileiros com quem trabalha, por norma, cooperam bastante, gostam de conversar em Inglês e aproveitam todas as oportunidades para aprender.De acordo com  Jonathan, a utilização de gestos e imagens, a indicação de artigos para leitura e as suas capacidades de comunicação ajudam bastante na interação com os seus alunos. O professor ensina Inglês há mais de 10 anos, tendo trabalhado bastante com preparação para entrevistas de trabalho e apresentações em ambiente executivo.Relativamente ao conceito de ensinar Inglês pela internet, Jonathan referiu que tem uma experiência cultural sempre que dá uma aula e que, na realidade, a única diferença entre dar aulas pelo Skype ou presencialmente é que não há contato físico. No entanto, o professor tem a responsabilidade de guiar o aluno durante a aula, lentamente direcionando e dando confiança para que o aluno entenda que é capaz de ter uma conversa em Inglês.Na nossa conversa, Jonathan confirmou aquilo que vários professores da LOI English já disseram, a maior parte das pessoas tradu z ao invés de pensar em Inglês e isso se nota na forma como as frases são construídas. Por isso, a sua dica principal é para que os alunos mantenham a comunicação curta e simples, de modo a ter mais controle sobre o que estão dizendo e também sobre a conversa que estão tendo.

Are You Thinking about Taking the New August SAT

Are You Thinking about Taking the New August SAT If youre a high school student, the parent of a high school student, or otherwise plugged into the world of standardized testing, youve probably heard about the new August SAT that will be administered this year. Bowing to popular demand, the College Board has finally decided to give students the option of taking the SAT over the summer. The total number of SAT dates each year will stay the same, though starting in 2018 there will no longer be a January SAT date.The official August SAT date will be August 26, 2017. The registration deadline for this test is July 28. You can register for the August SAT at the College Boards website. Please note that its probably a good idea to go ahead and register for this test right now if youre considering taking it. Many students, especially in the competitive Bay Area, are interested in trying the new August SAT, and due to the summer testing date, fewer testing sites will be available.This issue of limited space appears to be especially acute f or test-takers with accommodations for learning differences. Many of those testing spots across the Bay Area are already full. If you have accommodations for the SAT and you havent registered for the August test yet, do so immediately (or plan on driving a ways to find an open testing site).Now, onto the question weve been getting from many AJ Tutoring students and parents should I take the August SAT? A few thoughts:What year are you in high school?If youre a rising senior, the August SAT might be a great option for you. Many rising seniors have already taken the SAT at least once during the spring of their junior year. The August SAT is a great time for a retake, since for most students it comes before the beginning of the school year (and fall of senior year tends to be quite busy). The August test date gives you a little wiggle room to retake the SAT in October if needed and still get SAT scores in plenty of time for college applications. It also gives you the option of taking the SAT in August and SAT subject tests in October, since those must be taken on different test dates.The more difficult decision is whether a rising junior should take the August SAT. With good intentions, many parents want their student to get the SAT out of the way before junior year starts. For many students, junior year is the toughest year of high school with the most demands on their time, and it seems like a good idea to finish standardized testing before junior year gets into full swing. However, in our experience, the vast majority of students will get their best score on an SAT taken in the spring of their junior year (at the earliest). Theres nothing wrong with taking the August SAT as a rising junior, as long as youre open to retaking the test later in junior year.The August SAT may also be a good option for recruited athletes and other students who may need an SAT score earlier than normal.How much time can you devote to SAT prep this summer?Again, good intentions reig n. Staring down the barrel of a busy May and June, many students vow to throw their energy into SAT prep over the summer with an eye toward taking the August SAT. For many students, this plan will work well theyll be able to focus on preparing for the SAT over the summer with minimal distractions from school and sports.However, students should be brutally honest with themselves when deciding whether to take the August SAT. If you have a month-long vacation planned for July, an intense summer class, or a full-time summer job or if youre simply the kind of person who finds it hard to get motivated for SAT prep when you could be hanging out in Santa Cruz with your friends the August SAT may not be the best choice for you. Of course, you can always take the SAT in August with minimal prep over the summer, but just keep in mind that you may want to retake the test in October if you dont get the score youre looking for.How does SAT tutoring fit into your summer schedule?If you choose t o prepare for the SAT with an AJ tutor (and we hope you do!), you can expect to complete nine 1.5-hour sessions leading up to the August 26 test date. If you start tutoring after school is out, this generally means meeting about once per week throughout June, July and August. We also ask our SAT prep students to complete at least 3 full-length practice SATs, preferably proctored at our office on Saturday mornings. You can find our complete schedule of proctored practice SATs on our website.If youve already worked with us for SAT or ACT prep, we can usually shorten your prep for an SAT retake. Students will often complete four 1.5-hour sessions in preparation for retaking the SAT. You should also plan on taking 2 full-length practice SATs on the weekends. During the retake prep, your SAT tutor will focus more closely on your areas of difficulty from the last SAT and work on fine-tuning your approach to the test.In general, we think that the introduction of an August SAT date is a gre at move by the College Board to give students more options. Most rising seniors should at least consider taking the SAT in August.Interested in more information about the August 2017 SAT, or still not sure whether this test is right for you? Just fill out a consultation request or give us a call at (650) 331-3251. Wed love to talk through your SAT testing plan!

Teacher QA Exploring Abu Dhabi public schools with Lindsey, part 2

Teacher QA Exploring Abu Dhabi public schools with Lindsey, part 2 Abu Dhabi public schools offer incredible opportunities, great salaries, and extensive benefit packages for teachers. This post contains the second half of my interview with Lindsey, who taught in Abu Dhabi public schools for five years. Make sure you check out part 1 here first. What were some of the largest differences between Abu Dhabi public schools and North American ones? Did they pose challenges for you personally? Lindsey: There are many differences and similarities. Kids are kids no matter where they grow up. However, the school climate can be very different. A personal challenge of mine was getting over my Western-centric attitude. Most Westerners suffer from this without even realizing it. What I mean is that I had to remind myself constantly that there is no right way, or superior way, or better way. There are different ways to do things and one is no more right than the other. Once I accepted this concept, school life became a lot easier for me. Other things I found challenging was the language barrier - not so much between my students and I, but between myself and the staff. I am a social person by nature, so it was difficult when I would try to communicate with staff, especially because I was one of two female teachers in my entire school when I first arrived. To help solve this problem, I asked some of the Arabic teachers to teach me Arabic basics in return for English basics from me. This was a great way for us to find common ground and build a relationship. Another major difference I found was the lack of recess for students. Students get an average of 20 minutes of total break per day due to the fact that the school day is packed into only five hours. What are the resources and support systems like for educators in Abu Dhabi public schools? Lindsey:The Abu Dhabi public schools are going through an incredible reform, which means that year by year, sources and support systems are improving. There are plans that have been designed by ADEC to support students and educators. Also, I felt support by other teachers and the administration at my school. I find that most Emiratis see value in the education reform and are therefore are very open minded. How did you positively handle problematic classroom behaviour from students? Did you need new strategies? Lindsey:I watched a lot of teachers struggle, including myself, with student behaviour. As a fairly junior level teacher, it was a lot to take on a class of 28 grade 2 boys that had not only never had an English-speaking teacher, but that also had never had a female teacher either. I think reflecting back on the experience, this helped me grow as an educator. I was able to use trial and sometimes a lot of errors to try different techniques. In the end, the most successful method was reinforcing positive behaviour. I implemented a class tracking system and only rewarded students for good deeds done. The students started to intrinsically motivate themselves to make good choices. With the UAE’s education reform in place, what subjects are taught in English? Did you teach any of these? Lindsey:English Language Arts, Math, and Science are all taught in English. I taught all three subjects. What level of English could the students speak? Lindsey:There was a wide spectrum of English speaking ability. Some students were fluent English speakers, readers, and writers. Other students could speak English but could not read or write. Other students had no concept of the English language. Teachers have to be comfortable with different skill levels and understand how to meet the needs of the students in their classroom based both on ability and learning style. How was your experience with communicating with parents? Lindsey:Some parents were very approachable, easy to speak with, gracious, and supportive. Otherparents were more challenging to speak with because of their limited English ability and my limited Arabic language ability. In these situations, I would rely on my Arabic partner teacher for translation. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience with the parents of the students I taught. Did you meet other new teachers when you arrived? Were there onboarding or orientation events and activities for new staff? Lindsey:I met so many new friends when I arrived! Everyone is in the same situation as you are and therefore very open and friendly. I found teachers that had already been living there extremely helpful and willing to offer assistance to help me settle in. There was a week long orientation that I participated in. Representatives from the schools went through major processes and curriculum. They briefed us on living in the UAE, dos and don’ts, and helped familiarize us with where to go and what for. They also helped us set up a bank account and a cell phone. They were very helpful and patient. During orientation, which took place in Abu Dhabi City, we were placed in hotels. When I started, there wasn’t a Head of Faculty position, however, when I was a Head of Faculty one of my duties was to welcome new teachers to the school and help them get adjusted to the school climate as well as answer any questions they may have. How did you get along with other teachers at your school? Lindsey:I love getting to know all different types of people. I worked in a coed staff, which is rare in Abu Dhabi. The advantage was that I had colleagues from all over the world and I could learn from their teaching methods to expand my own professional growth. The teachers were very kind, welcoming, and inviting. What is the number one reason a teacher should experience teaching abroad? What is the number one reason a teacher should experience teaching in Abu Dhabi public schools? Lindsey:The number one reason a teacher should experience teaching abroad is for the overall professional and personal growth experience. Teachers should experience teaching in the Abu Dhabi public schools because it is an amazing opportunity to be on the forefront of a unique and ambitious education reform. Most teachers at home never see the big picture. Their students pass by year after year and it’s hard to feel that “I’m making a difference” satisfaction. In Abu Dhabi it’s totally opposite. Teachers can experience the difference they are making first hand! They are helping to re-shape the educational climate in the country, on the front lines and can see the incredible growth and of their students. It is very professionally satisfying work. What would you say to other teachers considering teaching abroad? Lindsey:Just do it! It’s a scary thing to consider, but the pros FAR outweigh the cons. I fell head over heels in love with living abroad! Everyone should have this experience of a lifetime! I can see myself going abroad again if the right opportunity presents itself.
