$100,000 in Scholarships Awarded to 10 Bright Students Through GoFundMe Program

$100,000 in Scholarships Awarded to 10 Bright Students Through GoFundMe Program Image via Pexels In a world where college tuition is at some of its highest rates ever and more college students are finding it increasingly difficult to pay off their student loans, a bit of good news in the field can be encouraging. On October 20, 2016, GoFundMe, the largest social fundraising platform in the world, announced that it was giving away $100,00 in educational scholarships to 10 promising young men and women. Each student received $10,000 to put toward their college expenses, according to a recent press release. Last month, GoFundMe shared details about the first scholarship program and revealed how parents, teachers, and students have turned to the crowd funding site to help realize their college dreams. All in all, it has been reported that over $100 million has been raised for college tuition and related educational expenses on the site. Qualifying for the scholarship was simple. Each student created a campaign page on the site to share their stories with potential contributors. Some of those stories included an undercurrent of challenges involving loss, grief, abandonment, sickness, and being the first in their family to go to college. Using the hashtag #GFMScholarship, each student shared what winning the scholarship would mean to them and how it would help them achieve their goals. In only a week’s time, over $200,000 had been raised to go towards college expenses. Image via Odyssey Rob Solomon, the CEO of GoFundMe, said in the release, “We’re proud and excited to help these remarkable, determined students achieve their educational dreams. All of us here have been touched by the stories shared by the scholarship winners, and we can’t wait to see how they’ll continue to give back to their communities.” The 10 GoFundMe scholarship winners come from a variety of backgrounds. From Aubrianna, who lost her father to cancer and became homeless with her mother to Sandy, who was abandoned by her mother at age six. From Mayia, who was diagnosed with OCD and Tourette’s as a young child to Alan, who turned away from gang life to be a bright student. Each of these students have one thing in common: receiving the best college education possible. This GoFundMe scholarship helps them get one step closer to reaching their dreams. Here are the winners of the 2016 GoFundMe Scholarship program: Born in the Philippines, Bezaleel (Bez) Balan, grew up in Guam. Her family moved to San Francisco and worked many odd jobs to help her pay for her undergraduate studies. She is now in her final year of graduate school at the UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture. Along with working multiple jobs, she has designed an elementary school in Sudan and orphanages in Haiti. Amir Fluellen’s father has been incarcerated for a long time. Raised primarily by his mother who recovered from cancer, he will start his college experience at Salisbury University. The financial burden that his mother’s illness placed on the family limited their ability to help him pay for college and thus he turned to GoFundMe to reach his goal. As a kid, Alan Gonez loved school but after getting involved with a gang and grieving the loss of his friends to gang violence, he chose to turn his life around. He raised his GPA from 1.8 to 3.8 during high school and then obtained a 4.0 and made the Dean’s List at Cerritos Community College. He is currently attending UCLA and giving back to his community. Moving from Mexico to America at the age of 6 only to be abandoned by her mother, Sandy Gonzalez knows too well the fight for immigrants to become permanent citizens. Her grandmother worked hard to become her legal guardian. Sandy is the first person in her family to attend college. In three years she will be able to apply for U.S. citizenship and plans to obtain a PhD in Psychology. As a single mother, Emettra Nelson is fighting to complete her degree in agriculture, food and natural resources at Michigan State. With only 19 credit hours to go, her financial aid decreased and she turned to GoFundMe to help her reach her goal. After her father died of bone cancer while she was in the second grade, Aubriana Mency and her mother were left homeless. Without the stability of home, Mency promised her parents she would work hard in school. She received a scholarship from Hampshire that will pay her first full year. Pauline Muturi entered the U.S. from East Africa. She is currently studying at Florida State University. While she works two jobs and works hard to maintain her good GPA, she worries whether she will be able to complete her studies as she is not eligible for federal student aid. Diagnosed with Tourette’s and OCD in the 3rd grade, Mayia Vranas fought through her disability to maintain straight As. She is now studying physics at UC Berkeley. While she cannot maintain a job and go to school, she will need to take an extra semester of courses and she plans to receive her PhD in the same field. Excited to attend Virginia Tech this fall, honor student Alyssa Wray always placed a high importance on her education. But when her sister contracted a flesh-eating bacterial infection, her family’s focus turned to helping her sister recovery. With medical bills mounting, Alyssa turned to GoFundMe to help her with the college’s first year tuition. A childhood emergency in which he was airlifted from his remote Navajo reservation helped Thayne Yazzie realize he wanted to dedicate his life to giving the Navajo Nation access to healthcare. He graduated from Western Washington University, moved back home to teach, and is now attending Eastern New Mexico University working towards his flight certification.

Teach Away Telegram - November 2014

Teach Away Telegram - November 2014 Join us for a Twitter chat with one of our Placement CoordinatorsWe’re very excited to announce that on Thursday, November 13 from 8 - 9 pm GMT, we’ll be holding a live Q&A on Twitter with our Placement Coordinator, Alexandra Capistrano. She’ll be taking over the @teachaway Twitter account for 1 hour.Alexandra has been working as a Placement Coordinator with Teach Away for just over a year. Before that, she was teaching abroad herself at a conversation school in Okayama, Japan, and was an Assistant Language Teacher at a private high school in Matsuyama, Japan. She loves to travel and has been to the UK, Ireland, Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Morocco, South Korea, and the Philippines. As one of our Placement Coordinators, she is currently working with private schools in Abu Dhabi, Macau, Saudi Arabia, and Kazakhstan. When she’s not finding the best candidates for teaching positions overseas, she’s either assuming her duties as the resident Teach Away DJ or sharing cute dog p hotos with the office.Our Twitter Q&A will be your chance to ask Alexandra anything to do with teaching overseas in one of the countries she focuses on, or about her own personal teaching experience.To participate, all you have to do is tweet us your question by including the hashtag #askteachaway. Alexandra will retweet the question before she tweets her answer, that way everyone can follow the Q&A.If you’re not on Twitter, click here to sign up. Once you’ve signed up, or if you already are, just follow @teachawayMake your next Skype interview a successThe Teach Away job board currently has more than 100 jobs posted for both ESL and certified teachers that reach every corner of the worldâ€"and for a number of these jobs, the schools have requested at minimum a remote interview with candidates. If you’ve never had a remote interview before, you may make the rookie mistake of thinking that because you’re not meeting in person, you don’t have to put the same amount of though t and preparation into it. Make no mistake: Skype interviews require the same effort. Here’s how you can make a great impression, even from a distance.Clean up your surroundings and minimize distractionsBefore your interview begins, make sure you’re going to be in a quiet room that’s free of distractionsâ€"for both you and the interviewer. Pick a room with a door so that you can minimize interferences from other family members and can shut out other household noises. It’s also important to let everyone else who lives with you know that you’ll be participating in an interview and need to conduct a distraction-free meeting.Set up your computer so that the wall behind you is clutter-freeâ€"a neutral background is best. A clean, organized space will show your interviewers that you too are an organized and thoughtful person.Keep a professional profileThough you might think that with a Skype interview, your first impression will involve you, you’re wrong. Before you connect fo r your video interview, your interviewer will be seeing your Skype username and your profile picture. Before you provide your Skype details, make sure that you’ve chosen a profile username and picture. If not, create a new one. Skype is free afterall!Dress the partAs we mentioned, many people interviewing for a teaching position abroad might be inclined to dress casually. Don’t! Psychologically speaking, getting dressed up professionally from head to toe for an interview makes you feel more professional. There's lots of evidence that shows the way we dress affects how we feel not only about ourselves but about our work, so stepping out of pajamas for an hour will help get your mind in a more professional mode. Go the whole nine yards: wear more professional slacks as well, even if you think your interviewer will have only a waist-up view of you.Practice makes perfectIf you’ve used Skype to visit with long-distance friends or family, you’re likely familiar with the awkward qu estion of where to look. This will be no different during your interview. The best thing for you to do is just practice your interviewâ€"better yet, record it if you can. Observe where you’re looking as you play the recording back for yourself, and try to train yourself to look at the camera instead of your own reflection on the screen.Show your interviewers that you’re presentWith long distance interviews, giving signs of life are sometimes necessary. Technology isn’t always perfect, and sometimes with slower internet connections Skype has video lags, so showing your interviewers that you’re still actively listening and participating through more verbal cues is helpful. Try to use simple words like “yes”, “right”, or even an “mhmm” to let everyone know that you’re still tuned in.Make yourself a cheat sheetIf you think you’ll feel more comfortable or prepared with notes in front of you, go ahead and make yourself a short cheat sheet with some point form notes . You can keep these in front of you but out of the way of your camera to refer to if necessary. But don’t fall into the trap of reading aloud verbatim: familiarize yourself with what you’d like to say in general, and make sure your notes are easily scannable so you don’t have to spend time studying them during your interview.Prepare to problem solveTechnology can be tricky, so be prepared to address any technological glitches like a weak connection, or interference or feedback. The chances are, if the problem is annoying you, it’s likely that it’s annoying your interviewers as well, and you don’t want to risk answering the question inappropriately because you didn’t hear the question in the first place. Although you might be nervous to draw attention to the problem, being quick to acknowledge the problem and find a solution shows that you’re a problem solverâ€"always a desirable quality in a teacher!Manage classroom behavior with ClassDojoThe creators of ClassDojo a ptly named their tool after a formal training place. Well-suited for any K-12 classroom, ClassDojo helps teachers improve classroom behavior through a comprehensive award system that awards merits or demerits in real-time to students for various behaviors.Since statistics show that teachers spend on average more than 50% of class time managing behaviors, ClassDojo aims to inject more instruction time back in to lessons by engaging students in behavior management.Students can earn points for demonstrated good behaviors like working hard on a specific task, asking thoughtful questions, and being cooperative or helpful with other students. When they’re awarded points, a pleasant noise lets them know so. Bad behaviors such as time wasting and class disruption lose students their earned points and a different, less harmonious noise lets them know. Whatever device teachers have available to them can be plugged into speakers for the rest of the class to participate in the process. Report s can even be generated and shared with parents to engage them in the process.ClassDojo works with any classroom, any device including regular web browsers, and is free for teachers. Try it today!City spotlight: Astana, KazakhstanAstana, the capital city of Kazakhstan, is known as “the city of the future,” though only 15 years ago, it barely existed. With little surrounding development for 1,200 km, Astana was quickly developed to look like something from a science fiction novel, with a skyline that boasts many futuristic structures.With so many remarkable buildings in one city, you’ll have no shortage of sights to visit. Architect Norman Foster designed many of these structures, including the Baiterek Tower, nicknamed “chupa chups” by locals because of its resemblance to a giant lollipop. Standing at 100 meters tall, it’s a great site for city views, and also houses an aquarium, a restaurant, and an art gallery. Another must-visit location is the Khan Shatyr, the worldâ €™s largest tent at more than 10 football stadiums in size, which features a giant shopping mall, an amusement park, an indoor beach, and even its own monorail.With a climate of extremes, having an indoor city like the Khan Shatyr proves helpful. In the summer, typical days can reach up to 30 degrees Celsius, while the winter months, the temperature can reach as low as -40 degrees Celsius, making it the coldest capital city in the world.Astana wasn’t always the capital of Kazakhstan though. Seven years ago, President Nursultan Nazarbayev decided to move the capital from Almaty, a city in the southeast, to Astana, which was previously home to not much more than a gulag prison camp for Soviet traitors. This allowed for a lot of modern development to be erected quickly, and the population has more than doubled to reach 750,000 since 1997.As a nomadic nation, Kazakh people appreciate wide open spaces and congestion isn’t such a concern in the city. For hundreds of years, Kazakhs her ded sheep, horses, and camels. This nomadic way of life has influenced their cuisine as well since herders relied on these animals for transportation, clothing, and food. Meat in various forms has always been the primary ingredient of Kazakh cuisine, and traditional cooking methods rely heavily on boiling. Local tastes do allow for variety though, and everyone will find something to enjoy when going out to eat.  If you are looking for a new international adventure that will take you off the beaten path, but still like the comforts of city life, Astana might be the place for you. Explore the largely unexplored and have a look at our open positions in Kazakhstan.

Unit 5 Chemistry Test Answers - How to Read Them

Unit 5 Chemistry Test Answers - How to Read ThemUnit 5 Chemistry tests may be hard to pass. In fact, you could have a test taker looking over your shoulder trying to guess what the answer is for each question. Well, to find out the answer to this one test question, you really need to know how to read a test and how to read the answers.Here's a helpful tip that will help you in getting the correct answer, and in saving yourself the frustration of knowing that you are going to have to re-take the test when you fail the first time. Most tests are turned in at the end of the day, and therefore you have to get the test back and start over from the beginning if you have a failing grade.Fortunately, there are several different forms of tests that are taken at each level of the testing, and so the format of the test will usually be the same. These include the Genethis series of tests, which consists of ten basic subjects and there are two more complex tests, a no-pre-test and an elective tes t. The test section on unit 5 Chemistry will consist of three sections with a section for each question.At the start of the test, you will be given a set of questions, and then the answers for each question. It will generally consist of some sort of multiple choice or fill in the blank types of questions, and you should then be given the option to change the answer to the incorrect question.So, the first section will be on the different elements that make up our body. This is called the First Form of Chemistry Test, and it will focus on different topics that are important to the basic human anatomy, and the structure of the body. The second section will be on how to control fire, and the third section will be on the Second Form of Chemistry test.Now, with all these new questions, you will need to find out what the answers are, but you will also need to get answers to the correct questions in order to pass the test. If you have a failing grade, you will be given the option to change your answer, and this will likely include changing your choice to the correct answer. The good news is that if you do get it wrong, you can simply get it correct the next time you take the test, which will help you save some time.I would recommend taking the test a few times, and getting a guide to reading the test, and the answer choices that you have available. This will ensure that you do not have a problem in terms of failing the test and having to take a new one.

Heterocyclic Chemistry

Heterocyclic ChemistryHeterocyclic Chemistry is a subfield of chemistry that are concerned with a class of compounds that contain more than one chemical element, and it can be subdivided into two major types. These are I) chemistry of h- and ii) chemistry of p- compounds.Chemistry of h- is the only type that is considered a branch of science, though not all of the scientific community considers it that way. This type of chemistry is focused on the development of compounds that contain an aryl ring. Many of the compounds produced in this field have properties that are similar to those of the substance that the aryl ring is supposed to replace.Heterocyclic Chemistry as a subject, however, is different from other chemistry because it focuses on individual substances and their properties that can't be found in any other compound. The focus of this type of chemistry is generally more restricted to the process of creation rather than the individual substances that are used in it. Chemists usually find that it is best to create compounds that have very little to do with each other.The process of creating a compound that is unique is usually accomplished by using a particular kind of laboratory apparatus known as a cyclohexane-adiabatic column. This column allows for the addition of small molecules to the surface of the sample in a controlled manner so that the ratio of those molecules can be altered in a certain way.Because the mixture of different molecules must be manipulated, they must be prepared correctly or else the whole experiment would fail. When trying to make a compound that has properties that are different from the ones of another substance, the manipulation of each of the ingredients is done at the same time. The properties of the compound is altered to match the properties of the rest of the compound. This usually results in a compound that is more stable than the original compound.The only thing that separates the methods used to make a compound from t hose used to create a single compound is that the former require much more time and effort than the latter. Although, since this method is a fairly expensive one, many chemists prefer to focus their energies on making a series of compounds instead of a single one.Heterocyclic Chemistry as a subject has always been one of the oldest branches of Chemistry. It was one of the first ones to be categorized under a single branch of Chemistry, which is what makes it a much more difficult area to get a grasp on. Chemists from the Victorian era up until today still consider it one of the hardest of all subfields of Chemistry.

Easy Guitar Songs Learn to Play Like David Bowie

Easy Guitar Songs Learn to Play Like David Bowie Maile Proctor The best way to celebrate the life of music legend David Bowie is to remember his impact and play his songs. Here, guitar instructor Matt K. teaches you  to play five easy guitar songs that Bowie made famous...   The recent passing of rock n roll icon David Bowie  sent a shockwave through the world. Bowie’s music and message meant so much to so many people. He had the talent to remain relevant within the entertainment industry since his big break with Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars in 1972. He created 27 full-length albums, appeared in over 20 films and television series, and was a part of countless collaborations. He also wrote the famous “All the Young Dudes” for Mott The Hoople, just because he liked the band and they needed a hit to prevent them from breaking up. From Life On Mars to Lazarus, his music is a major reason why many, including myself, picked up an instrument and began to play. You can find the rest of the tab here. Ziggy Stardust Ziggy Stardust was David Bowies alter ego that catapulted him to success in 1972. This was when the American public was first truly introduced to David Bowie.
