New 9-1 GCSEs Factfile

New 9-1 GCSEs Factfile Struggling to work out the new 9-1 grading system? Check out our GCSE Results Day FAQ. With the first results of the new GCSEs coming out, many parents will be concerned about the new 9 to 1 system and how it will affect their child’s grades. This guide may help answer any questions you might have on GCSE results day. Which one is better: 9 or 1? Just remember: nine is fine! For further information about how the grades match up, please see the table based on information from Ofqual, the independent exams regulator. As grade boundaries are always subject to change depending on the performance of a particular cohort, the table may not be 100% accurate but it gives a good idea as to how the new GCSE marking system will match with the previous one. How will I know if my child has passed? As you can see from the table above, to pass in English or Maths your child would need to get a 4, which is equivalent to a low-middle C. Back in February, Education Secretary Justine Greening outlined the difference between a ‘standard’ pass, a 4, and a ‘strong’ pass, a 5. If your child, achieved a 3 or lower then they will have to retake their exams next year if they decide to continue in further education. If this happens, then an English or Maths tutor will be able to help prepare your child for the rigours of the new exams, teaching them sound exam techniques and give them access to high-quality revision resources. However, it is still unclear as to how further education institutions will react to the changes with many setting a 4 in core subjects as their minimum requirement for entry while others are insisting on a 5. As many as twenty percent of HR professionals are reported as still being unsure as to whether a 1 is good or bad. (hopefully, they’ll read this blog and find out!) Which subjects will be affected by the changes? The only subjects that will have a number grade this year will be core subjects Maths, English Language and English Literature. Other subjects including Ancient languages (Greek, Latin), Art and Design, Drama, Food Preparation and Nutrition, Music, Physical Education, Science, Biology, Chemistry, History, Geography, Modern Foreign Languages, Citizenship, Computer Science and Religious Studies will switch from letters to numbers in 2018. Ancient History, Business, Classical Civilisation, Design and Technology, Media Studies and Psychology will follow suit in 2019. This means that up to 2019, students will receive a mixture of letter and number grades with letter grades being phased out within the next two years. What’s the difference between a 9 and an 8? The idea was that introducing a 9 at the top would allow employers and universities to be able to identify the academic elite among high-achieving A* students. This was originally envisaged as the best 5%, however, according to Ofqual’s latest predictions, this could turn out to be very different on results day. The top 3% are predicted to achieve a 9 in Maths as opposed to 7% achieving an A* in 2016 while the best 2% will get the top grade in 2017 for English Language with the top 4% getting an A* last year. The bottom line is it is much harder to get a top grade with only a ‘few hundred’ predicted to get 9s across the board in the three qualifications. Will A levels change as well? Some A levels have been reformed recently with changes made to syllabus and grading criteria, but the letter system of A*-E remains intact and there are currently no plans to change that. How has the new Maths GCSE changed? According to expert tutor and qualified Maths teacher, Beth, the questions in the new GCSE rely much more on the mathematical intuition of the pupil, are more open-ended, and generally more demanding. There is a greater emphasis on problem solving, meaning that teaching to the test is no longer a viable option. Finding the right Maths tutor will ensure that your child has the requisite skills and knowledge to approach the new exams with confidence. There are still Foundation (1-5) and Higher (4-9) tier papers with some topics from the old AS level being included in the Higher exam and many Higher topics now filtering down into the Foundation paper. Overall, it is a more challenging paper. How have the new English GCSEs changed? There is no longer a Foundation or Higher tier paper, but one paper for all where students are expected to be able to understand, analyse, compare and evaluate unseen nineteenth-century fiction and twentieth-century nonfiction extracts. However, many pupils have found it challenging to complete the exam in the time allowed. In English Literature, there is not only a greater emphasis on critical writing style and spelling, punctuation and grammar but there is also much more content to revise including closed book exams on a nineteenth century text, fifteen poems, a modern play/novel and a Shakespeare text. Some pupils might need an expert English tutor to be able to make sense of all of that content and to be able to formulate coherent and convincing essays. Coursework and controlled assessments will not feature in the new qualification as the grades are based purely on how pupils perform in their Summer exams. Students’ speaking and listening ability is still evaluated by their teacher but students merely need to pass the test and the results no longer contribute towards the final grade. Essentially, the main changes are less teacher intervention in the evaluation of grades and higher demands on pupil literacy. What’s Progress 8? This is a new measure being introduced by the government this year to measure the progress pupils make across a range of subjects in individual schools. It has nothing to do with your child’s results this year but it is a good indicator of the effectiveness of teaching at a particular institution for those looking to change their child’s school. Why the new 9-1 system? These are the brainchild of former Education Secretary Michael Gove with the idea being that exams would be more rigorous and that the new 9 grade would help differentiate the top-performing students. However, as to why it had to change from letters to numbers remains a mystery. How can a tutor help? If your child has not gained the qualification they need to get into the college of their choice, then it may be worth contracting the services of an expert tutor who knows the exam system inside-out. An expert tutor in English and Maths would be able to help your child with past papers, difficult concepts and time management, so that they are successful the second time around.

Irvine Tutoring Tips Why Summer School is Awesome

Irvine Tutoring Tips Why Summer School is Awesome Tips from an Irvine Tutor: Five reasons why summer school is actually awesome Many kids attend summer school these days to keep up with stringent educational standards in Southern California. Most view it as something that takes away from their free time during the summer; however, summer school can provide some great elements to a student’s overall education. Summer learning can make the school year easier, help push students towards their college dreams, and allow them to concentrate on one subject theyve been struggling with our private Irvine tutoring will help you succeed in your summer school classes. 1. Create balance Kid’s who get caught up to grade level with academic tasks over the summer have more of a healthy life balance during the school year. Perhaps geometry has been a challenge the entire year, or maybe their reading comprehension skills have been causing extra stress. When students try to tackle a difficult subject, their mind becomes tired, and its harder to enjoy learning other subjects that they excel in. By focusing on these topics during the summer, students create a balance for themselves during the year, so they continue to love learning in general and maintain a high GPA. 2. Get one-on-one attention in a difficult subject Every student has that one subject they struggle with. This can either end up being a detriment to their overall education and cause stress thats unnecessary, or it can be an opportunity to improve. Students can work with a one-on-one tutor over the summer and get extra attention to turn their weakness into a strength. One-on-one tutoring helps students move through the steps to success quicker and easier, so they feel confident once they go back to the classroom in the fall (READ: Why You Should Take an Online Class This Summer). 3. Socialization Some summer school programs offer students an opportunity to work on academics in the morning and socialize in the afternoon. This is a great way to combine summer school and camp allowing kids to get enjoyment out of the summer months. Also, it gives students an opportunity to socialize in a semi-structured environment so they can continue to make friends and improve social skills while they work on academics. Learning to get along with others and maintaining friendships is a big part of any student’s overall educational experience and should be viewed as an important element of growing up. 4. Reaching college goals Many students opt to attend a summer college prep program to achieve admittance into their dream and target schools. These days, applying to college should be an entire subject in and of itself, and the overall process takes up a lot of a student’s time. Students need to prep for the SAT or ACT (or both), they need to work on personal statements and essays, and they need to determine which colleges will be the best fit for them. There are tons of summer prep programs that help students navigate this process and get ready for entrance exams. Students can also work one-on-one with an in-home tutor to determine their strengths and weaknesses. 5. Grades One of the more obvious positive elements of summer school is that it helps students improve their GPA. If a student can tackle core subjects over the summer, theyre more likely to keep their grades up during the year. Of course, its important for students to have time to rest and recharge during July and August but its also important for them to have the academic tools necessary to do well on assignments and quizzes throughout the year. Even a short summer school program helps students improve their grades and feel more confident about their ability to study, organize, and learn. The start of the school year is just around the corner! Get the summer rust off and start the year right with the help of a private Irvine back-to-school tutor. Call us today for more information.

Teach in paradise what you need to know about Hawaii

Teach in paradise what you need to know about Hawaii The islands of Hawaii are a place of dreams for many. With their combination of awe-inspiring scenery, great weather, and a laid-back lifestyle, plus the ease of traveling there for U.S. citizens, it’s not hard to see why. But what if your dream vacation destination could become your actual home? If you’re a licensed teacher (or want to become one) you’re in luck because the Hawaii Department of Education is on the lookout for teaching professionals who want to live and work in Hawaii. Where do I sign up for a teaching job in Hawaii? As the exclusive recruiter for the Hawaii Department of Education (HIDEO), Teach Away has several job vacancies available here. HIDEO also organizes out-of-state recruitment fairs throughout the year. If you are not already a licensed teacher, but you have a degree and are a U.S. citizen, check out Teach Away’s alternative route into teaching in Hawaii here. How to prepare for a move to Hawaii Apart from the scenery, weather, and lifestyle, there are many reasons go to Hawaii. How about unique culture inspired by a diverse population that can be found nowhere else in the world? Or the fact that it’s a paradise for surfers, divers, and hikers? Or all the delicious poke you can eat? This all sounds dreamy but, as you know, moving somewhere is not the same as going on vacation there. As well as ticking items off your tropical island bucket list, a move to Hawaii will also mean some apartment hunting, weekly shops, laundry, finding new friends, andâ€"â€"of courseâ€"â€"teaching! Although these aspects of life are decidedly less glamorous they will be the mainstays of your time in Hawaii and might just prove to be the source of a real and rewarding life in the Aloha state. So, how can you make a move to Hawaii go more smoothly? And what will it be like to teach there? Glad you asked... 7 things you can expect when you move to Hawaii to teach You’ll get into the great outdoors... This factor might be the very reason you’re keen to pack up and move to Hawaii in the first places â€"â€" beaches, ?? sunshine, and ?? good vibes! And you’re sure to find all that. Hitting up the beach after work will definitely be an option and there is plenty to keep surfers, snorkelers, and hikers busy. However, you won’t find as many of the kinds of cultural activities you would in big urban centers in mainland U.S., such as theatres, new restaurants, and big exhibitions. Hawaii also doesn’t really have seasons in the way many other states do. In Hawaii, you’ll experience a hot summer and an almost equally as hot winter. If you’re big into winter sports or enjoy big city culture as a way to relax, make sure you’re ready for a change in pace when you move to Hawaii. You might have to give up some living space Hawaii is made up of six main islands and their resident population is around 1.4 million. On top of that, there are millions of tourists from all over the world who visit every year. While all those people in a relatively small space make for a unique and exciting cultural mix, the reality is that lack of space means you’ll probably have to downsize your living space if you’re moving to Hawaii from the U.S. mainland. Living on an island also means that may have to reduce your travel horizons a little too. If you feel like a change of scenery when the weekend or the school holidays roll around, instead of road tripping to another state the most realistic option is going to be… visiting another Hawaiian island! Again, this doesn’t sound like much of a chore, but a few months into your Hawaiian life you might start to crave a little something different. Keep in mind that there is plenty to explore in Hawaii and each island has its own characteristics. Get ready to spend some $$$ Hawaii is an expensive place, even if you’re not living it up in a five-star resort, and you might find high prices in places you wouldn’t normally expect them. For example, milk can be surprisingly expensive, as well as fruit that isn’t grown on the islands (like grapes) can also cost a lot. This is because food and many other products not produced on the islands are imported by sea or plane, driving the cost of living up to two-thirds higher than the rest of the U.S. You’ll eat plenty of Hawaiian food Hawaiian food can provide a few surprises for new inhabitants on the islands. First up, spam is very popular! In fact, Hawaiians consume more spam than any other U.S. state. You’ll find spam served with eggs, in fast food restaurants and even in sushi! Due to the need to import foods not produced on the islands, staples like pizza or pasta can be harder to find in Hawaii than in mainland U.S. But in their place, you’ll find plenty of Hawaiian food and Asian food that uses tasty local ingredients like fresh fish and tropical fruit . Delish! You’ll make a difference at work Every teacher knows there’s no such thing as an “easy” school. Each classroom comes with its own set of challenges and rewards. In Hawaii, the main challenge is that schools are underfunded compared to other U.S. states. On top of this, teacher turnover throughout Hawaii is high as many teachers only work there for a year or two before returning to their home state. These factors, along with a general teacher shortage in the state, mean that teaching in Hawaii can be challenging. But you are also sure to make a difference in a place that truly needs you. Sign up to Teach Away today for access to the latest teaching jobs around the world. You’ll learn a new classroom culture Teaching in Hawaii also presents an opportunity to get to know a whole new culture through your students. Although you’ll still be in the working in the U.S., Hawaii has a strong cultural identity of its own brought about by its unique history, location, and diverse population. As well as English, Hawaii has its own official language (Hawaiian) as well as Hawaiian Pidgin (or Hawaiian Creole English) which is a blend of expressions from many different cultures that have played a role in Hawaii’s history, namely Hawaiian, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, and Portuguese among others. Social culture is founded on the values of Aloha (acceptance) and ‘ohana (family). The island’s strong Asian influence also means that values such as duty, honor, and non-materialism are prized. These cultural differences are not just something you’ll have to come to grips with in your free timeâ€"â€"you’ll also come across them in the classroom. Formally, the Hawaiian Studies Program and the Hawaiian Language Immersion Program, both introduced in the 80s have aimed to integrate Hawaiian culture history and language into the state curriculum. You’ll find your Hawaiian community Whenever you move somewhere new, it always takes time to find your community and a set of people you can truly rely on. In Hawaii, this feeling is somewhat amplified as it’s such a remote place with a distinctly different culture from the rest of the U.S. This means not only is it physically harder for you to go home or for your loved ones to visit you, but also there may be moments where you feel you stick out like a sore thumb (or a clueless tourist!) in your new home. Making an effort with your local colleagues, getting involved in social groups and paying close attention to the Hawaiian way of doing things should all help you overcome this. Although it’s not always easy, finding friends and adapting to a new way of life will be an enriching experience that’s sure to stay with you for years to come. And if you’re really lucky, whether you teach in Hawaii long term or just for a year or two, you’ll find your own version of the aloha spirit to take with you wherever you go. Feeling inspired?

Level Up Your Language Learning with Spaced Repetition (SRS)

Level Up Your Language Learning with Spaced Repetition (SRS) Remember that time you crammed information for an exam?(Dont worry, weve all been there.)You, like many others, may have spent an all-nighter memorizing every page of your notes and trying desperately to make up for countless days you decided to hold off on studying.While you may have performed well on the exam, think about how much you recalled a few weeks after the test date.How much of that information did you remember?If youre like most humans, the answer is probably not very much. Wait, So Cramming a New Language Wont Work?You can try, but unfortunately you wont get very far if you try to learn  the Spanish subjunctive tense  in one night. Now, you may wonder, if I was able to recall information so well at the time of an exam, why has it dropped from my memory soon after?Well, theres science behind this! Research proves that cramming intense amounts of information into our brain in a short period of time is not an effective way for long-term learning.British author H.E. Gorst mentioned in his book The Course of Education that cramming is what produce[s] mediocrity. Yikes. What he means is that cramming doesnt provide us with the ability to think critically and effectively apply our knowledge in creative ways.Yet cramming is still becoming more and more popular among students of all ages.If Its So Ineffective, Why Do We Cram?Fingers point to improper time management as the number one cause. If we better prioritize our time, we can more efficiently learn new information. By cramming, we may absorb information that can be easily regurgitated the following day. But say goodbye to that information because its going to disappear at an exponential rate as time goes on.Cramming trades a strong memory now for a weak memory later. Unfortunately, we sometimes cling to short-term gratifications and fail to strive for long-term benefits. Before you banish all hope for your memory, theres an alternative method to learning that may give your brain the love it needs.In psychology, there is a theory of memorization and learning called the spacing effect. The spacing effect is the idea that we remember and learn items more effectively when they are studied a few times over a long span of time.Is Frequent Repetition the Solution? Not Quite.Since cramming is out the window, you may think its smarter to study material over and over again. Its crucial to note that, while repetition is important, not all repetition is created equally. Youll want to space out the repetitions between each time you study a set of information.But determining how long to wait in between studying can also be a tricky matter. If you practice too soon, your brain will begin passively remembering information, which will not stick over time. If you practice too late, you will have forgotten the material and have to spend extra time relearning it. Add to this the complexity of individual learning and memorization patterns, and you have a recipe for guaranteed memory loss.Thankfully , there are softwares available today to help us pin-point the sweet spot of optimal learning. Just when our forgetfulness dips below a certain level, these programs jump in and keep our brains on track. How cool is that?Spaced Repetition Software to the RescueSpaced repetition software (SRS) are computer programs modeled after a process similar to using flashcards. Users enter items to be memorized into the program, which are then converted into electronic decks that appear on-screen in a one-by-one sequential pattern.Usually, the user clicks one time to reveal the question or front of the generated card. A second click will reveal the answer or back of the flashcard. Upon seeing the answer, the user then indicates the difficulty of the card by telling the program how challenging it was.Each following cards order of appearance is not randomized. In fact, SRS programs use algorithms to space out the time intervals indicated when each card will appear again on the screen. Cards given easy ratings will appear later than cards given hard ratings, thus allowing users to spend more time studying the cards that are more difficult. The tough ones will show up more often until they are mastered, giving you the chance to actively learn them more efficiently than other learning styles.Using Spaced Repetition for Language LearningTo put this into context, lets pretend you spend an evening studying 100 Mandarin words you didnt know before. You continue studying until youve completely memorized the words. Lets say it takes you an hour to do this.Immediately after reviewing these words, your memory of them will be quite high. However, over time you will naturally begin forgetting the material you learned. And, since it was your first time learning these words, your use-it-or-lose-it brain is more likely to ditch this new material at a faster pace. The new knowledge isnt yet considered important enough to be etched into your brain cells.However, the second time you study the same words, it will take you less time to master the set than it did the first time. Perhaps this time it only takes you 30 minutes to memorize the 100 words. Congratulations! Youve completed your first spaced repetition.So, does this mean youll have to keep repeating the information you want to learn for the rest of your life? Not exactly. While it does require long-term review to keep information fresh on our minds, the time spent on review becomes shorter and less frequent over time.With each successive review, it will take you less and less time to fully recall the information. As you begin mastering a set of words, youll find yourself whizzing through each card. Eventually, information will become so memorable that we know it by heart. This is when you know youre ready to move onto a new, more challenging deck.Get Your SRS Game On!Thankfully, millions of people around the world enjoy using a variety of free applications available today that use spaced repetition learning.AnkiA nki is one of the most popular spaced repetition softwares. Named after the Japanese word for memorization, Anki allows users to create their own decks of cards or download pre-made decks by other users.One popular feature of Anki is the ability to sync decks across multiple devices, allowing users to study online or on their cell phones. Anki also stores your statistics for each deck so that you can track your progress over time.FluentUFluentU is a bit different from the other services mentioned here. FluentU takes real-world videos like music videos, movie trailers, news and inspiring talks, and turns them into language learning experiences. What makes it relevant here is that it has a very robust SRS systemâ€"based on a variation of the SM2 SuperMemo algorithm (like Anki).  What makes it different is that you are able to easily import words, and then you can automatically see images, definitions and example sentences that have been written for each of those words.And thats not al l. You can even see how the word is used in different videos throughout the site. This is all packaged in a smooth feature that tracks your history and provides new and different video clip prompts based on your previous history on FluentU. Its a smooth marriage of spaced repetition and learning through context and personalization. If youre tired of filling up your flashcards and searching for good examples, then FluentU might be what youre looking for.FluentU has a wide variety of videos like movie trailers, funny commercials and web series, as you can see here:FluentU App Browse Screen.FluentU has interactive captions that let you tap on any word to see an image, definition, audio and useful examples. Now native language content is within reach with interactive transcripts.Didnt catch something? Go back and listen again. Missed a word? Hover your mouse over the subtitles to instantly view definitions.Interactive transcript for Carlos Baute song.You can learn all the vocabulary in any video with FluentUs learn mode. Swipe left or right to see  more examples for the word you’re learning.FluentU Has Quizzes for Every VideoAnd FluentU always keeps track of vocabulary that you’re learning. It uses that vocab to give you a 100% personalized experience by recommending videos and examples.Start using FluentU on the website  with your computer or tablet  or, better yet,  download the FluentU app from  the  iTunes  or  Google Play  store.SuperMemoSuperMemo is another learning software that uses spaced repetition learning methods. Electronic flashcards can be self-made, downloaded from a pre-made collection, or in some cases merged together. After users are presented with a card, they must respond and then give themselves a grade that reflects their recall ability. SuperMemo uses this feedback to calculate the interval length for the card to be repeated.Self-discipline Ultimately Trumps AllRemember, while these programs may have wonderful language learning techniqu es, they wont be effective unless you have the self-discipline to use them on an ongoing basis.Make it a habit to open up and use the softwares mentioned above. If you set aside some time every day to do your SRS studying, youll see noticeable results sooner than you might imagine.Frank Macri works with those looking to create off the beaten path lifestyles.

Why Be Smart Tutoring Inc Is So Effective

Why Be Smart Tutoring Inc Is So EffectiveBe Smart Tutoring Inc. is a US based company which specialises in teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) to native English speakers. They have over 15 years of experience in working with an array of students who are all eager to learn and do not mind being around the home tutor as much as they do their parents. They may be young adults, older people, international students, locals or overseas students.It all depends on what their particular language area is and where they were born and where they want to live for the next few years. Some may not mind the amount of weekly English classes that they need to take while others will need the extra assistance from a tutor who is not only willing to be there but does not mind doing things for them and teaching them as well.The reason why this company has been around for so long is because they are very good at what they do. They understand that the children they work with do not speak English as a first language so it is important that they do the best they can with the limited time they have to devote to them. The skills that they teach to the children means that they will eventually be able to use those skills when they are older.One of the things that they do that most other companies simply cannot do is make the children happy. Their philosophy is that the kids they tutors do not have the ability to be able to express themselves in front of the class, so that they need someone who understands them and loves them.Students are very grateful to them for making their lives better. These are the parents of a child who will then go on to become a successful businesswoman. The children of these parents will go on to make a difference in the community and the world.The whole package comes together and when it is put together, the outcome is a very rewarding experience for both teacher and student. It is this experience that makes the tutor and the students feel very satisfied.W ith this in mind, parents can not only teach their children how to speak the language but also teach them to love it and enjoy the experience of being around the home tutor. This can not only improve the language skills of the child but can also help the child develop their social skills as well.
