Tips On Applying For Arizona Department Of Education Accredited Public School Programs And Schools

Tips On Applying For Arizona Department Of Education Accredited Public School Programs And SchoolsThe purpose of this article is to give you a few tips on what to do and not to do when applying for Arizona Department of Education (ADE) accredited public school programs and also schools in your local area. This is a great place to start if you want to give your child the best chance possible to get a good education. Especially in Arizona, where it seems like every other student is enrolled in a public school, there are many different options to choose from, so make sure you take a look at them all.Of course, I must start off by telling you that most students who attend a public school or in a private school do not really need tutoring. Many people think that because they are in public school, they should get whatever tutoring they need to prepare them for life in the real world. Most students do not have the time to devote to doing homework and often feel overwhelmed and stressed out by the demands of school. In reality, public school students really don't need any extra help.Getting the right education in the first place is the most important thing for your child, but you want to do it in the most effective way possible in the long run. One tip is to choose a good tutor, but that's not the only thing you have to take into consideration. The people who work at the schools do more than just teach math and reading, they are trained to do a lot more than that. So be sure to ask about their training, especially if you're looking to get a job, they will most likely be able to help you find a teaching job in the future.There are also other aspects of the job that you might want to look into. You can ask what type of job placement services are offered by the school you would like to attend. One of the most popular is mentoring, but it can be hard to find one that works for your particular needs. You want someone who is willing to go the extra mile to help you succeed.A nother tip I would like to give you is to find out if the tutoring is offered free or if it is a fee based program. Free tutoring is a little more expensive, but it gives you a chance to actually be involved in a real-life classroom environment and see what your kids are really like. There are also some private tutoring companies who will charge a fee if you choose to hire them, but they can give you some great material as well. Remember, it is always better to pay for quality than to pay for quantity.Finally, one thing to remember is that a good school will have many different types of programs for different grades and subjects. Make sure you read all of the requirements on the application, so you can find the right school for your child and pay the best price possible.So take a look at the advantages of an excellent school, don't rush into choosing one without taking some time to figure out the facts about it. Good luck!

What I Wish You Knew About Borderline Personality Disorder

What I Wish You Knew About Borderline Personality Disorder Image via: Unsplash This happened two years ago and honestly, I feel no closer to reaching peace with my condition. As a matter of fact, it took every bone, muscle, and cell of courage to write this article. After all, I am very passionate and serious about mental health and eliminating the stigma associated with it. I was inspired by a friend of mine who created a social media campaign to educate others about Borderline Personality Disorder and decided that my condition was nothing to be ashamed of. Its a part of me. It may not be the best part of me, but Im choosing to turn my struggle into education and support for others forced into silence out of fear of judgment or ostracization. So, buckle your seat belts and get ready to learn more about borderline personality disorder and things that those who have the illness wish you knew. Lets get started. What is Borderline Personality Disorder?   The medical definition of Borderline Personality Disorder is a personality disorder that typically includes the following symptoms: extreme emotional reactions, impulsive behavior, and history of turbulent or unstable relationships. To be diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, you must demonstrate at least five of the following symptoms: Distorted and unstable self-image Intense and highly changeable moods Chronic feelings of emptiness and/or boredom Inappropriate, intense anger, and/or issues controlling temper Intense and stormy relationships Extreme and/or inappropriate reactions Impulsive and typically dangerous behaviors, such as drug and alcohol addiction Chronic suicidal behaviors or self-harm Borderline personality disorder got its name in 1938 and the term was used to describe patients who were thought to be between, or on the borderline, so to speak, of psychosis and neurosis. In other words, Borderline Personality Disorder is a very difficult disorder to diagnose and an even harder illness to treat. Image via: Pexels The worst part of Borderline Personality Disorder, besides the symptoms and the occasional inability to separate your emotions from symptoms, is the stigma surrounding it. I can count the number of people who know about my condition on one hand, as a matter of fact. I created this article in the hopes of changing how people view Borderline Personality Disorder, otherwise known as BPD. Its an extremely misunderstood and widely feared condition. One of the first things people ask when I disclose this information is typically Didnt Jodi Arias have that?  or As long as you dont brutally murder me, were cool.  Comments like this are hurtful and made me afraid to have such a serious condition, even though people made those comments in joking. So, lets leave stigma, misconceptions, and judgment at the door. Here are things I wish you knew about Borderline Personality Disorder*: People with Borderline Personality Disorder Arent Monsters Lets get one thing straight right off the bat. Borderline Personality Disorder is not an inherently violent condition. In fact, people with BPD are much more likely to be a danger to themselves than anyone else. Yes, intense anger and other emotions are a part of BPD symptoms, but that doesnt mean that theyre at risk for hurting someone else. The key word of BPD tends to be self-destruction, meaning that those with BPD are more of a danger toward themselves than they are to those close to them. People with Borderline Personality Disorder Feel Things Very Deeply Imagine for a moment if you were born without skin. Imagine how intense every single sensation would be. Now, imagine being punched in the gut. Sounds pretty agonizing, right? Emotionally, people with Borderline Personality Disorder have no outer shell to protect their emotions from triggering events and upsetting news, whether its a breakup or a last minute cancellation. Unfortunately, its easy for someone with Borderline Personality Disorder to interpret any change of behavior as abandonment. Imagine being terrified (like, life or death terrified) of your significant other breaking up with you. You now have some insight into what it feels like to have a BPD brain. People with Borderline Personality Disorder Are Not Manipulative Theres a really horrible myth that people with BPD manipulate others and seek attention for the fun of it. However, there is nothing fun or enjoyable about this condition. Actions that appear to be attention-seeking or manipulative typically originate from fear of separation or abandonment from those that they care about. This behavior isnt malicious in the slightest; rather its an attempt to seek relief from their anxieties about abandonment. People with Borderline Personality Disorder Dont Threaten Suicide/Self-Harm for Attention This is important, so Im going to write it twice. Here we go: Always take suicide threats seriously. Did you hear that? Let me say it again: ALWAYS TAKE SUICIDE THREATS SERIOUSLY. Often, people assume that suicide threats and self-mutilation are attempts to get attention or manipulate others into doing what they want. However, this is not the case. Statistics reveal that 10% of people with Borderline Personality Disorder will commit suicide and many more engage in self-mutilating behavior, like cutting, burning, and more. Even if you feel like someone is holding themselves hostage for you to come to the rescue, you must take any and all suicide threats seriously. Bipolar Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder Are Not the Same Conditions   A common misunderstanding people fall into is thinking that Borderline Personality Disorder and Bipolar Disorder, when this is the furthest thing from the truth. First off, one is a personality disorder and the other is a mood disorder. Both are very different types of mental illnesses.   Bipolar disorder is characterized by alternating episodes of depression and mania that can last for days, weeks, or even months. Borderline Personality Disorder is characterized by mood swings caused by interpersonal conflicts and can last for minutes, hours, days, and weeks. Remember that the abbreviation for Bipolar Disorder is BD, while the abbreviation for Borderline Personality Disorder is BPD. People with Borderline Personality Disorder Are Not All the Same I found a very sweet post on Reddit that someones boyfriend wrote about their girlfriend who was diagnosed with BPD. After scrolling a little further, I found a post that broke my heart. A young man made a post about a new girl he met with BPD and if she would be worth dating. Of course, being the Internet, people had nothing nice to say. Some of the comments that stood out to me were: They dont have personalities. Theyll steal yours and make you fall in love with them.   Run for your life. Shell ruin your life.   Of course, I found these comments to be incredibly painful to read. So, I feel the need to put it out there that  not everyone with BPD is the same.  Sure, there are genuinely cruel people out there, but just because someone has been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder doesnt inherently make them evil or out to ruin your life. As a matter of fact, people with BPD are typically considerate, caring, loving, and loyal people. This brings me to my next point People with Borderline Personality Disorder Are Not Unlovable or Unbearable   Okay, lets be real. Its a challenge to live with or be in a relationship with anyone who has any kind of disorder or illness, whether its mental or physical. While its a challenge, its not impossible to learn how to live and function in a healthy, happy way. So, to call people with Borderline Personality Disorder unbearable, unlovable, or unworthy of love is a strong, not to mention cruel, generalization. Every person is different and has their own set of issues to deal with. People who have Borderline Personality Disorder tend to find success and inner peace with the help of medications, therapy, and DBT therapy. Image via: Unsplash People with Borderline Personality Disorder Can Never Be Cured   This statement is both true and false. With that being said, unfortunately, there isnt a cure for Borderline Personality Disorder, but with the right treatment plan, those with BPD can find peace and happiness. A cure for Borderline Personality Disorder means the ability to tolerate distress and regulate emotions. Someone who has been cured of Borderline Personality Disorder is serious about treatment and improving their situation. There isnt a cure that will make BPD completely vanish, but there are ways to make life enjoyable and worth living nonetheless. I hope that I achieved my goal of educating you about Borderline Personality Disorder and getting rid of some of the myths about the condition. I received my diagnosis of BPD two years ago and Im nowhere close to finding my own cure, but I know with hard work, persistence, and treatment, I will find peace. If you have Borderline Personality Disorder, no matter where you are in your treatment plan, you are strong and you will make it. *These are things that I, personally, wish other people knew about Borderline Personality. Every person with this condition is different in their own way and struggles with different issues.

What To Study In Bond Polarity?

What To Study In Bond Polarity?If you are planning to get a BSc or BEd in organic chemistry, you have to remember that most of the courses offered by universities are geared towards organic chemistry. This is because organic chemistry is required to teach students about the role of organic chemistry in society and its production. So if you really want to take this course, you should also do your homework well.It's important for you to consider Bond Polarity or molecular orbital binding as the first step in organic chemistry. Now, if you have taken a course that focuses on the bonding between carbon and hydrogen atoms, then you might not have to worry about this part. However, if you have taken a course that focuses on the bonding between atoms of different chemical species, then you should be familiar with this step as well. Otherwise, you may not be able to effectively introduce the topics in your own study.The next step in the right direction is the Bond Polarity. This step helps y ou understand the link between bonds. When you can understand and focus on this step in organic chemistry, you will be able to assess the strengths and weaknesses of your knowledge. It will help you make a decision on which topics to study. You will also learn how to interpret data and how to use equation when solving a problem.In this step, you will learn about the nature of the interaction that takes place between two different groups or molecules when they are forced to interact ionic field. Then, in your next course, you will learn about the antisymmetric symmetry that will allow you to understand the nature of electrochemical bonding. If you have not taken a course on the symmetry group, you should do so now so that you will be familiar with the common terms used.After the Bond Polarity, you will study the proton and electron. A proton and electron are referred to as the B-Electron and B-He, respectively. With this, you will also learn about the orientation of the electron in a molecule. Here, you will learn the physical mechanism of the conduction process and the structure of a molecule. The energy level at which the electrons are found will help you determine the charges of the atoms.You will learn about the electronic states of the different functional groups. In this process, you will have to use the protons of atoms to find the state of the electron. After this, you will learn about the various aromatic rings and what these molecules are capable of doing. You will also learn the function of oxygen in the formation of an alcohol. At this stage, you will be introduced to the synthesis of an organic molecule.The last step in the right direction is the Bond Polarity. Once you know the right understanding about it, you will be ready to undertake a Bachelors or BEng in Organic Chemistry. Make sure that you take your time and make your own plans to study this course, otherwise, you may be disappointed in the end.

How to find the lyrics and chords for your favorite songs

How to find the lyrics and chords for your favorite songs Megan L. When youre learning to play an instrument, sometimes its tough to get motivated to practice especially if you’re playing songs and exercises that don’t really excite you. When you start playing your favorite songs, though, you might find yourself able to get into your music a bit more. There are many ways to find the lyrics and chords to your favorite songs, but not all of them are simple, and sometimes you might end up more frustrated trying to track down lyrics or chords than you would be practicing music that youre not listening to on your stereo regularly. There are two main options for finding song lyrics and chords. One option is to go to your local music store and ask if they have the sheet music for the song youre looking for. This is fairly easy, as the salesperson can point you in the right direction. The other option is to go online and try to find it. While you might be able to find more obscure songs this way, you also run the risk of finding music that has been transcribed improperly and wont sound like your favorite song regardless of how well you practice. Thats never fun! Heres how to make your search easier: Consult Your Private Instructor When youre trying to find the lyrics and chords for a specific song, make sure to ask your music teacher for advice. He or she may know of a website or a local music shop that can provide you with just what youre looking for. And if you stumble upon the music for that elusive song but it doesnt quite sound the way you want it to, your teacher can definitely help you determine what needs to change in order to make it sound like the original recording. If youre playing guitar, for instance, you might come across a song that is actually played with a capo on the third fret, but the chords youve found do not call for a capo and instead show a fair number of inverted chords. While the general structure of the song will be the same, youll likely find that you can never completely duplicate the same guitar sound as in the recording. Your teacher can help you discern these differences and help you transpose the chords so you can use a capo and sound just the way you want it to. On the other hand, if youre playing piano, you might find that the music youve found is missing a few parts of the chords that make the difference between sounding close and sounding exactly like the recording. Again, your private teacher will be able to hear which notes each chord is missing and help you fill in the gaps. Often music that is transcribed will be slightly simpler to play than what the original arrangement was, to make it easier for a wider range of piano players to practice it. While this is a good idea to start learning songs, if youve practiced the same melody for months and it still doesnt sound the way it does coming through your stereo, the frustration will be back in spades. Working with a good private instructor to help you find the differences between your arrangement and the original recording is key. Tips for Finding Music Online There are many sites out there that offer guitar chords and tablature, as well as sheet music and lyrics for piano. You may find that the more lyrics and chords you search for online, youll keep coming back to the same few sites and settling in on a couple that have the proper arrangements and selection of songs that you want. Here are a few guitar sites that have a great selection of lyrics and chords to get you started: Ultimate Guitar: This website has over 800,000 songs of chords and tabs. If its a hit song from a major recording artist, chances are you can find it here! Guitar eTab: With around 200,000 listings, this site is another great resource. Chordie: This site is even more expansive than the other two combined. The only drawback is that most of the songs on here are not completely accurate, so use this as your last resort. If youre trying to find lyrics and chords for a specific song online, make sure to be as precise with your search as possible. Use the name of the artist and the name of the song when you are searching. If the artist has multiple recordings of the song, such as a studio version and a live version, also use the name of the album for the specific recording youre looking for. Click through the first few results of your search, and browse around the website a bit before deciding which arrangement to start practicing. A good site will have a huge selection of lyrics and chords available, as well as possibly a key to deciphering any specific nomenclature of the music they have. This is always good to have in case theres a notation that you arent familiar with. Of course, your private instructor can help you decipher these things as well. Good luck, and have fun!
