Tampa, Florida stands for Phosphates, Tobacco, Sunshine and Education

Tampa, Florida stands for Phosphates, Tobacco, Sunshine and Education The city of Tampa, Florida is much more than many people associate with: sunshine, tobacco and hurricanes. Tampa also means phosphate industries, cigar-makers, film, guava fruits and many educational facilities anchored in the fascinating history of Florida. The modern history of Tampa starts with the Spanish explorer Narváez who landed near present-day Tampa. But the expedition was ill-fated and had to be rescued by the Hernando de Soto party. Ruled by Spain for the most part, the United States purchased Florida from Spain in 1821 in order to eliminate the southern refuge for renegade slaves. In the 1880s, Tampa became boom town when phosphate was discovered in the Bone Valley Tampa region. Today Tampas port still ships millions of tons of phosphate annually; the term phosphate capital of the world was coined. Besides phosphate, Tampas other capital of the world label was for tobacco. Nearly 12,000 tabaqueros (cigar-makers) were employed in 200 factories. Ybor City produced an estimated 700 million cigars a year at the industrys peak. Some largely unknown facts about Tampa are worth knowing and quite interesting. Tampa Bay is a popular birding site. The breeding population of the region totals 35,000-45,000 nesting pairs annually at more than 20 sites. Besides its names originating from phosphate and tobacco, Tampa is also known as the Big Guava. Guavas are yellow, pear-shaped tropical fruits found in Tampa. Ybor City guava delicacies include guava jelly, guava paste, guava turnovers and pickled guavas, which are usually displayed in the areas guava cooking contests. The film industry loves sunshine, infrastructure and scenic sites all of which Tampa has a plenty. There is a large number of films (or portions of it) which were shot in Tampa Bay, including China Moon, Cocoon, Edward Scissor hands, Lethal Weapon III, My Girl, Wilder Napalm, Parent Trap II, Once Upon A Time In America, and Oceans 11. Education is another area when Tampa Bay resident can be proud of. For example, Hillsborough High School is one of the Souths oldest high schools. Later, due to the increasing high school population in the Tampa area, a second high school was founded and named after the third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson. A third high school deserves mentioning: Freedom High School in located in New Tampa. It was named in honor of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. Tampa high school students can choose from three specialized programs: Technical, Architecture Environmental Design, or Health. These three programs are also indicative of the importance of how to make a living in modern day Tampa. The Tampa Bay area boasts dozens of higher education institutions and universities. Foremost the University of South-Florida, also known as USF, is a member of the State University System of Florida and a public research university. USF is the fourth-largest public university in the state of Florida, with a total enrollment of 47,646 as of the 2012â€"2013 academic year. The University of Tampa (UT) is a private university in Downtown Tampa which recently celebrated its 75th anniversary. UT offers over 150 undergraduate degree options, along with 12 masters degree programs in accounting, finance, business administration, education, marketing, nursing and creative writing. For the seventh year in a row, UT has been named by The Princeton Review as an outstanding business school for its 2013 edition. Going hand-in-hand with the plethora of educational facilities are the many fine tutors of Tampa some of which are found on TutorZ.com, for example, Tampa economics tutors, Tampa History tutors,  Tampa Psychology tutors and Tampa Algebra tutors. While being a major city of the world, one thing though puzzles me about Tampa is a law that unmarried women in Tampa, who parachute on Sundays, may be jailed.  Can anyone explain this curious fact?

Know the Science of the Applied Chemistry

Know the Science of the Applied ChemistryAs a science student, I am taught about the various facets of applied mathematics as taught in the 'Sec Chemistry' courses I had taken. This course is offered by several organizations like the IITs, IIMs and other top ranked institutes. In these courses, students are given great exposure to different aspects of Chemistry and its applications.Let me briefly explain how the Sec Chemistry classes work. After selecting an institute, one has to choose a subject, be it a particular branch or discipline. Then, one has to select a teacher who can help him in understanding the same. One has to pay for admission into this course and if he chooses a department, his room and board charges would be paid.As a student, I had two such courses; one in my first year of the BTech and another in my second year of the BTech. Both of these courses were great and taught me a lot about the world of Chemistry. One of the major advantages that I got from the course was that the subject was not too difficult for me to understand, even though there were various aspects and concepts involved.Apart from understanding these subjects, the subjects covered in the course also included various topics such as organic chemistry, protein chemistry, chemical engineering, flammability and so on. The subjects were so comprehensive that I could master all the subjects in the course within a span of four months. The duration for each subject was usually a little over two weeks and this meant that I had enough time to learn a lot about the subjects. The course was organized and taught by experts and this meant that I had a lot of time for my own interests.My favorite subject was materials science and its applications. It was highly engaging and I could study from anywhere. The subject was taught in an interactive format and had several modules that one could do depending on his preference.I am sure that I have experienced various thrill when I had been assigned th e super capa to make a tour around the laboratory and see what the big guys were up to. It was never boring, it was always full of excitement and with the help of the guide, I could understand everything much better.The course made me more interested in science as a career prospect. I was able to see all the changes happening in the field and that made me feel as if I was in the lead. A few years after this course, I was accepted to a PhD program and it was the best decision that I ever made.

3 Middle School Science Experiments to Try At Home Today

3 Middle School Science Experiments to Try At Home Today Middle school is an exciting time to try newactivities in STEM. From dropping an egg from varying heights to making a working model volcano, there are many DIY middle school science experiments to try at home. Here are just three: Middle school science experiment #1: balloon rocket To create a balloon rocket, you will need a balloon, a piece of string or thin rope that is at least 10 feet long, a plastic straw, and tape. Youll also need two posts, which could be actual poles, doorknobs, sturdy chairs, etc. First, secure one end of the string to one post, and then insert the string through the straw. Tie the other end of the string to the other post, pulling it taut. Blow up the balloon, and secure the air inside by pinching it with your fingers or clamping it gently with a binder clip. Then, tape the straw to your balloon, making sure the balloons end is facing you. Let the balloon fly along the string, from one end to the other. For further experimentation, try varying the size and shape of the balloon, utilizing different types of string, or changing the angle of the string. [RELATED: 4 Ways Parents Can Help Middle School Students Succeed] Middle school science experiment #2: fruit battery For this experiment, youll need a citrus fruit, a copper nail, a zinc nail, and a holiday light. For the holiday light, use wire strippers to cut one working light from a longer string, making sure to leave two inches of string on either side. Also be sure your copper and zinc nails are about two inches long. Since this experiment involves electrical work, make sure to have adult supervision. Once youve gathered your materials, soften the fruit with your hands or by rolling it on the table. This will help the juices loosen up and allow the circuitry to flow better. Then, push the nails through the fruit skin at least two inches apart. Next, carefully cut the plastic coating from the light strands so youre able to wrap the strand around each nail. The fruit will now begin acting like a battery and power the light. For future experimentation related to this project, explore different hypotheses, such as: Do different citrus fruits make a difference? What if you use a non-citrus fruit? [RELATED: How Parents Can Help Students Setand AchieveAcademic Goals] Middle school science experiment #3: the milk trick Gather a flat tray, food coloring, whole milk, and liquid dish soap. For best results, use three or more colors of food coloring. First, youll want to pour some milk onto the tray, just enough to cover the bottom. Next, add several drops of different food coloring into the milk; you can do this in different spots of the milk, or drop your different colors next to each other. Then, add a few drops of dish soap directly onto the food coloring, and watch as the milk reacts with the dish soap. If youd like to extend this project, try different types of dish soap and record your results. Some middle school science experiments can be done within the span of an afternoon, while others might take up to a week to execute. Find a safe place to store your project and notes, and if youre curious, check out videos online to see how others experienced the same experiment. Lastly, dont forget to share your findings with friends and teachers! [RELATED: 4 Benefits of STEM Studies] Any topics you want to know more about? Let us know!

(Source: Verge Magazine)That’s the difference between classes at school and hourly private tutorials:At primary school or secondary, a certified teacher creates a uniform set of lessons to fit a group of around thirty students.They have to follow a strict schedule, often something like a chapter every four or five hours of class time, meaning they don’t have time to go at the speed best suited to struggling students.Getting an in-home private tutor or an online tutor provides personalised support, time to catch up and understand concepts that the student may have otherwise found difficult. In fact, private tutors also provide academic mentoring.During their tutorials, the teacher is looking to improve the student’s understanding of the subject.A tutor needs to be calm, listen to their student, and employ useful teaching tools in order to take the best pedagogic approach.Whether maths, physics, chemistry, English , French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, or Russian, there is a standard teaching model that every private tutor should adopt:Read every exercise, text, or statistic clearly.Give your student time to think.Work from general ideas to specifics: start by asking general questions before beginning an exercise.If an exercise is difficult, work towards the answer by asking related questions before reaching the original answer.Encourage your student, give them positive feedback when they do well.Give them real-life examples of complicated concepts.If necessary, simplify technical terms by explaining them in everyday words.Private Tutorials: Support TechniquesIn-home academic support and music tutorials (such as jazz piano, guitar, or violin tutorials, for example), allow for a different approach to typical schooling.Learn to learn. Teach a man to fish... (Source: Observer)Weekly one to one tutorials are the time for the tutor and the teacher to work together on a particular topic, s ubject, exam, or set of exercises.This means the student can perfect their approach, learn study skills, work on an assignment, or get homework help. A home tutor will give them everything they need in order to succeed in their progress tests and exams.If you're struggling with your approach, bringing ideas together into concrete and structured plans, scheduling your private in-home tutor or finding a tutor online may be the best way to help you to get ahead.How?By training again and again. And again.Here’s a great technique to help students perform better in essay exam questions for GCSEs and A Levels:Provide students with an essay question from a past paperAsk students to brainstorm everything that comes to mind when they think about the task (ideas, authors, theories, etc.)Create a rough draft paraphrasing the central concepts to highlight the main argumentsOrganise these main arguments into an essay outlineBuild upon the points of the argumentAsk your student to put together a n excellent introduction, reminding them to start with a hook, provide background information, describe the topic, define the terms of the subject, the issue, and outline the objective of the essayDraft the conclusionFlesh out the content of the essay, with an argument, an example, a source, and evidenceDon’t forget to correctly cite referenceNever move on from a point without having clearly explained it and never give a personal opinion (make sure you’re neutral)Of course, this approach can’t be used for solving maths or physics problems, but for subjects like English, French, Spanish, history, or geography, it’s great for essays.The tutor needs to make sure that academic support helps the student form habits and break their harmful old habits.If you’re looking for private tutorials to improve your own approach to studying, now’s the time.Private tutoring is great for students from primary school through secondary school and at university.Private tutorials provide stude nts with personalised teaching that works for them.

This is what private tutoring is all about.It’s a bit like renovating a house:Every topic is like a room and they have to be fixed up before the deadline (which is usually the exam date).You need to regularly check on the progress of the work (provide feedback on progress tests to the parents), there may still be a few cracks in the plaster (gaps or difficulties), and it might take longer than expected (intensive classes during the school holidays may be necessary).During in-home classes, the private tutor works for their learner.On the one h and, they love teaching their students and they’re delighted when their student does well and they're happy when the parents are happy.On the other hand, students are also their livelihood and the private tutorials make up their income.Even with a tutor you can feel stressed by exams, check out our tips  to go through them more easily.Use a Private Tutor to Get Ahead and Get Your Confidence BackFinally, a private tutor is a personalised academic advisor for your child. Academic tutoring is the reason the best tutors decide to become a tutor in the first place!Like during a match, your tutor is like a coach whose sole purpose is to help you succeed. (Source: peakpx)But they do so much more than just pushing them: once your child is struggling in school, they’ll start to get frustrated. Feelings of disappointment can even demotivate students who are academically brilliant. Their teacher’s job as a motivational coach is to lead the student on a path of guided discovery that leads to academic success.An in-home tutoring programme allows the tutor to both fill in any gaps in the student’s knowledge and also improve their understanding of the learning process through regular study.Of course, the student’s grades will improve and then they’ll get their confidence back.Academic coaching can give the student confidence in their tutor which can help motivate them: a satisfied tutee will ask for even more work so that they can progress even further.It’s the key to success!Not convinced by the benefits of private tutorials?
