Halina's English Tutoring

Private Tutor Halina
There are many ways to learn English but the best way is to have a private tutor.
It is clear that a non-native who knows how to teach is way better than a native who doesn't know how to teach.
You need someone who can motivate you, can help you learn how to enjoy studying English as well as speaking it.
Someone who can answer your questions, develop your skills, and design a learning package that meets your needs in English.
With English Coach, you can learn English from the comfort of your own home or from your office, at a time that suits you.
Communication in English nowadays is a MUST.

The future of learning In this talk, Sugata Mitra will take us through the origins of schooling as we know it, to the dematerialisation of institutions as we know them. Thirteen years of experiments in children's education takes us through a series of startling results – children can self-organise their own learning, they can achieve educational objectives on their own, they can read by themselves. Finally, the most startling of them all: groups of children with access to the internet can learn anything by themselves. From the slums of India, to the villages of India and Cambodia, to poor schools in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, the USA and Italy, to the schools of Gateshead and the rich international schools of Washington and Hong Kong, Sugata's experimental results show a strange new future for learning. - See more at: http://iatefl.britishcouncil.org/2014/sessions/2014-04-05/plenary-sugata-mitra?utm_source=09+April+2014&utm_campaign=ConstantContact+26+March&utm_medium=email#sthash.LfTv1D2R.dpuf

Nasty People on the Internet Your Guide to Knowing Your Digital Enemies

In 2014, cyberstalking is more common than physical harassment, according to the researchers at Bedford University in England. Imbalanced individuals who obsess over others now have dozens of convenient online means by which to follow and attack their prey. Using email, sexting, Facebook, Twitter, FourSquare, and other social hubs, cyberstalkers can track someone's personal life quite easily. Cyberstalking is a sad and disturbing part of modern society, and things will only get worse before they get better.
 

The Future of the Web

http://webtrends.about.com/od/Social-Media-Evolution/a/The-Future-Of-The-Web.htm
Now that we live in an information age with zettabytes of data available, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to dig through all of it to find the useful chunks of information we might need. Thanks to Web 2.0, we’re now all content creators adding useful pieces of data every second through our tweets, our Facebook updates, our YouTube videos, photo uploads, our blog posts, our comments, our conversations and everything else we put online. As that big pile of data continues to grow, the problems associated with processing it within an ideal amount of time grow as well.

How You and Your Peers are Using Technology and What You Want to Learn More About

How You and Your Peers are Using Technology and What You Want to Learn More About
 If educators, particularly in the latter stages of schooling, don’t see the connection between the modern workplace, technology, and the skills being taught in the classroom, then how are students supposed to learn how to succeed in their professional lives?
It’s also rather unfortunate that many educators don’t see technology as a tool to practice reading and writing, given the fact the it is increasingly the platform on which reading and writing are done (as opposed to paper). Am I missing something in this interpretation?

Picture a world without technology

Picture a world without technology

It is said that technology is simply the use of knowledge, tools, materials, and processes to alter the natural world in order to satisfy human requirements and needs. Humans use technology to design, problem solve, invent, and innovate solutions to everyday problems. Captivating and monitoring nature continues to be a vital purpose of technology.

Is it possible to learn / teach without new technologies? Technology has changed the way we do things and it will continue to influence change.  We are willing to continue to learn and grow communication skills.

Is our everyday conversation changing?  I am sure, during my great-grandmother’s days  conversations went somewhat like this; “did you hear about…” My grandmother was from the generation of listening to the radio and then verbal communication took over again with family and friends passing along what they heard.  The conversation would have been “I heard on the radio that…”  When television came along, we all felt immediately connected even though some news took longer to report. The conversation may have started by “did you see on the news that….”or “did you read in the newspaper…..”  So how are our conversations today?  How many times do you hear today “I saw on-line that…”? Instead of introducing yourself we tend to say  ”why don’t you Google me “.......
