🍎 #TeacherAppreciationWeek Highlight 🍎 Today, we're highlighting Maryana Boatenreiter, communications manager with ECS! Prior to joining ECS in 2020, Maryana taught English composition to undergraduate students. When asked what advice she would you give to those who are looking to become teachers, Maryana said: "I’d tell future teachers to identify early why they’re interested in being teachers so they can revisit that when times get hard. I’d say, give yourself grace and know that developing as a teacher is a career-long process that has many ups and downs. ... Finally, I’d say, listen to your students. Gather feedback from them, check in on how your methods and practices are working for them and do your best to recognize a variety of different learning styles, experiences and needs." #EducationPolicy #HigherEd

Absolutely! Teaching is more than a job; it's about passion and inspiring our students! 📚 Flashback 12 years: I was a new English teacher in a CBSE school, just starting out. 🍴During lunchtime chats with colleagues, we discussed why we chose teaching. 🤓 Unexpected Confession: Shockingly, out of 8 teachers, 6 admitted they were in it to escape in-law pressures and chores. 🙍🏻♀️ Their perk? Keeping an eye on their kids and enjoying school holidays. 🤦🏻♀️ This hit hard. Passion was missing, and worse, they criticized their own students. 😐 It made me realize that education quality was suffering because some weren't genuinely passionate about teaching. 🥺 Teaching is a responsibility to nurture future generations. 🌱 Don't you think passion is crucial to developing knowledge and excellence in our students? 🤷🏻♀️ Share your thoughts! 👇 #PassionForTeaching #QualityEducation #InspireFutureGenerations

The following conversation with Dr. Tony Allen, president of Delaware State University, was adapted from a Kaplan webinar. In it, he shares how the university is accomplishing its vision of access for all. When asked how Delaware State University is infusing career readiness into the student experience, Dr. Allen says, "At Delaware State, we're doing a couple of things. First, we're deepening the talent pipeline. It's very important that you start early, particularly for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. At Delaware State, we have an early college school. It's a school we chartered about nine years ago that starts in the seventh grade and students stay with us through the twelfth grade. When they’re in high school, they can earn up to 60 college credits before they're ever admitted into any university." He adds, "We respect career readiness and that's an important piece for us too. I tell companies a lot it is not acceptable for you to come see our students in their rising junior and rising senior year in the same way. Many of my students are first-generation college students." Last year, Delaware State University signed up for Kaplan's award-winning All Access license, which provides all of the school's undergraduate students with free test prep courses for graduate-level admissions exams, including the GRE, GMAT, LSAT, and MCAT. This partnership builds upon Delaware State’s focus on affordability, graduation, retention, economic mobility, and innovation. "Our University's vision is to be the most substantively diverse, contemporary and unapologetic HBCU in the country. Central to that vision is equitable access for our students, particularly those who are first generation and/or from low-resource communities. Our earnest belief is that there should be no barrier to the pursuit of their dreams, financial or otherwise,” said Dr. Allen, at the time of the partnership announcement. “Kaplan’s All Access is not just good for our students and their preparedness in professional and necessarily licensed disciplines, but it also reflects a commitment to a more inclusive, connected global community in every field of human endeavor."

암기, 주입식 교육,시험용 영어 수학, 한국 교육열에 반대하여 IB DP 프로그램을 가져와서 또 다시 주입식 시험용으로 만들어버리면 우리 아이들이 갈 곳이 없습니다. 부끄럽지 않나요? 정치를 교육에 이용하고 이 시스템에서 모두가 이익을 창출하고 계속해서 반복한다면 더 이상 미래는 없습니다. Why I'm Changing the Way We Teach Refusing to Teach to the Test Since starting in 입시, 시험영어 education back in 2018, I’ve seen something troubling in Daegu, students are great at memorizing and scoring high, but when it comes to understanding, there’s just silence. They can pass tests with flying colors but can’t apply what they've learned. It’s clear we’re missing something important. Time for Change! It’s time to rethink our goals. Education should be more than just good test scores and college admissions. It should be about helping students think for themselves and get excited about learning. We need to value their growth and ideas more than their grades. Let’s Speak Up Together If you’re worried about speaking out, I’m here to help carry that voice. Let’s push for an education system that builds real skills and creativity, not just test-taking abilities. Let’s prepare our students for real life, not just exams. Your voice is important. Let’s make real change happen together.

📜 Struggling to write your LLM Personal Essay to a Top Russell Group University? Here are some important questions to ask yourself while writing your mini-essay to your chosen university:- 1) Why you want to study x degree at graduate level? 2) Why you want to study x degree at this University? 3) What particularly attracts you to the chosen course at this University? 4) How your academic and professional background meets the demands of this challenging programme? {*making this connection is crucial!} 5) Where you would like to go professionally with your degree? You are advised to strictly adhere to these points. Ensure that you carefully craft your statement based on these explicit points. 💡 Very Important Tips to Remember: A. The personal statement should ideally be 2 pages long (word limit: 1000-1200 words) B. Follow British English NOT American English while drafting your LLM Personal Statement to a UK University. C. Avoid mentioning your extra-curricular activities in the starting of the personal statement, specifically if those activities do not relate to the programme you intend to pursue (Eg: Dancing and singing do not relate to your motivations for pursuing a corporate LLM from a Russell Group University). D. The main focus of your statement should be on the core subject area you intend to take up. E. Briefly discussing the current trends/challenges taking place in the news that relate to your area of interest is encouraged. F. Do not talk about your family background in explicit detail-this is a “personal” statement, it should be about your achievements and not the achievements of your family members. ☎ To know more, schedule a free consultation with our UniMentors today! team@unimentoracademy.com or comment on our post below. #collegeessay #collegeadmissions #llm #lawupdates #lawschools #ukuniversities #essaywritingservice Follow us on: https://lnkd.in/dGn2RPww
