If you've ever felt stuck in your head, unsure if you're doing the right thing, or quietly wondering, “Am I actually cut out for business?”, this episode is for you. I sat down with the lovely Hayley Grant, a teacher and tutoring business owner, to talk through what was really going on behind the scenes before things started to shift. We kept it real, talking through the mindset traps, the emotional side of business, and what helped Hayley stop overthinking and finally start moving forward with more clarity and confidence. In this episode, we chat about: ✔ How Hayley's self-doubt was showing up (and what helped her shift it) ✔ Why things felt like a “slow grind” in the early stages ✔ The difference support and structure made to her confidence ✔ Letting go of perfection and giving herself permission to go at her own pace ✔ How she's showing up in her business now and feeling proud of it ✔ The power of being in a room with other tutors who get it This one's for you if: → You're second-guessing your offers, pricing or whether you're “doing it right” → You're holding back from putting yourself out there → You feel like you're doing it all on your own, and it's getting heavy → You're ready to build something that actually feels good ** Hayley completed my start-up course for tutors: Tutor Bootcamp and is a current member of The Profit Pathway, my 6-month program for tutors who want a real plan, real support, and a business that works (without working 24/7). Want personalised support for your business growth? Let's map out your next steps together. Book a free 1:1 strategy call and we'll chat about where you're at, what you want, and how I can help you get there.

Ever wish someone would text you every day to make sure you stuck to your goals? That's exactly what Adam Gilbert built — first for fitness, now for business. He's the founder of My Body Tutor and DoneDaily, two remote coaching services powered by daily accountability. I invited him to share how he turned simple check-ins into a multi-million dollar company. Adam Gilbert was a personal trainer who was frustrated by seeing clients not follow through on the diet and exercise programs they committed to. So he offered to be their accountability buddy by text. The service he created, My Body Tutor, was profitable from its first month and continues to generate millions 18 years later. His latest company, DoneDaily, offers a similar accountability and coaching program for entrepreneurs.

El 90% del temario es previsible y debe estudiarse a fondo, dejando las dudas difíciles para momentos de menor concentración. Organiza el estudio según tus horas pico, dedica más tiempo a temas complicados y usa herramientas como Anki con moderación.

In this episode, Kevin sits down with Vida Williams, Chief Data Officer at Stride, to explore the promise—and risks—of artificial intelligence in education. From personalized tutoring to curatorial learning, they dive into how AI is reshaping what it means to teach, learn, and build trust in a digital world. They discuss how AI can reduce teacher overload, personalize instruction, and expand access—but also unpack why how we build it matters as much as what we build. And in a world where machines are getting better at guiding student learning, they ask a fundamental question: What's the role of the human in the future of education? If education is a shared journey, should machines walk with us? This might be what you want to know.

In this episode Justin again examines Romans 6:14, highlighting the distinction between living under the law and under grace, and explains how the law serves as a tutor leading to Christ, while grace, embodied by Jesus, teaches believers to live righteously. Referencing Galatians and Hebrews, Justin contrasts the households of law (under Moses) and faith (under Jesus as the high priest in the order of Melchizedek), underscoring that believers are sons, not slaves, in the household of faith. He critiques modern "greasy grace" teachings that reject tithing, repentance, and righteous works, clarifying that grace empowers righteous living, not just forgiveness. Using Titus 2:11-12, he illustrates how grace trains believers to reject ungodliness and live uprightly, urging listeners to practice righteousness as evidence of their faith, and concludes by encouraging immediate application of these truths for spiritual growth.

Research shows that repression can lead to both radicalization and deradicalization. When does it drive groups to pick up arms, and under what conditions does it foster disengagement from violence? To answer these questions, it is important to trace tactical changes over time, and to parse the factors that push groups toward or away from violence. Through an examination of four case studies—the Muslim Brotherhood and Al-Gama'a al-Islamiya'a in Egypt, and Darul Islam and Jemaah Islamiyaa in Indonesia—Ioana Emy Matesan establishes a framework for understanding what leads groups to escalate towards violence, or to renounce it. Matesan breaks down how escalation occurs into ideological, organizational, and behavorial escalation, giving us a nuanced and systematic approach to examining the complex nature of Islamist groups and providing a structure for analyzing other social groups that engage in violent tactics.

Archetypal Symbols panel about the “4° Cancer New Moon Karmic Readjustment”. 4°'08' Cancer New Moon cosmic energies on 25 JUNE, 6:32 am EDT Washington DC; & 11:32 am UT Greenwich UK“Days following the Summer Solstice, the Jupiter and the Sun in Cancer join the moon ruling both in Cancer. Actions for securing what nurtures and protects us undergo great transforming karmic readjustment. Clear thinking using discernment helps to define what alliance supports power versus none,” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of the weekly show. “However the new moon in Cancer involves a myriad of emotional stories, perspectives, and voices to perceive. A very personal new moon in Cancer, we have the opportunity to begin internalizing consequential choices as the moon processes continual phases of development.”Archetypal Symbols integrate each New Moon's astrology, numerology, tarot, the Jyotish Nakshatra, with Sabian Symbol system of mystical imageries created in 1925 by spiritualist medium Elsie Wheeler and astrologer Marc Edmund Jones.Joining Sue Rose Minahan of Kailua-Kona, Big Island HI are Justin Crockett Elzie of Port Angeles, WA, and Elizabeth (Liz) Muschett of Camano Island, WA.

It's the summer of 1588, and all is not well in England. Citizens are plotting to betray their Monarch for Spanish gold, and the dreaded Armada is coming closer and closer. It's up to the Queen’s Sea Dogs and navy to stop them, but will they succeed in convincing Queen Elizabeth that such action is necessary? And when the Spanish ships finally arrive, what will happen to the Virgin Queen and the citizens of London? And how will this affect the exploration, settlement and colonization of North America?

In this episode Justin continues a discussion on the role of the law in Christian theology, emphasizing its purpose as a tutor that reveals sin and condemnation, ultimately pointing people to the need for a savior in Jesus Christ. He contrasts two ministries: the law, which brings death and condemnation by exposing sin, and the ministry of the Spirit, which brings life and righteousness through faith in Christ. The law's role is crucial, as it convicts individuals of their sinfulness, preparing them for redemption through Christ’s death and resurrection, and warns against teaching a false gospel that promises the benefits of a resurrected life without acknowledging the necessity of dying to sin. Referencing Galatians 3 and Romans 7, Justin underscores that the law remains relevant for those who are not yet born again, as it tutors them in their need for salvation, while grace becomes the tutor for believers, guiding them toward righteousness.

Zu Recht, denn der Nachwuchs müsse mit den KI-Tools umgehen können, findet Bernadette Spieler, Professorin an der Pädagogischen Hochschule Zürich am Zentrum «Bildung und Digitaler Wandel». Computer und Tablets hätten im Schulunterricht nichts verloren, entgegnet Ralf Lankau. Sie würden den Schülerinnen und Schülern mehr schaden als nützen. Ralf Lankau ist Professor für «Mediengestaltung und Medientheorie» an der Hochschule Offenburg. Erstsendung: 20.11.2024

Speedlearning - die Erfolgstechniken für Beruf, Schule und mehr
In drei Monaten kann man eine neue Sprache auf einem soliden Niveau lernen, wenn man systematisch, regelmäßig und mit echter Motivation vorgeht. Dabei kommt es nicht nur auf die Lernzeit an, sondern auch auf die Methode und die Art des Kontakts zur Sprache. Zu Beginn ist es wichtig, sich ein klares Ziel zu setzen. Will man einfache Gespräche führen, Texte verstehen oder beruflich kommunizieren können? Je nach Ziel sollte der Lernplan angepasst werden. In den ersten Wochen geht es vor allem darum, die wichtigsten Vokabeln und Strukturen zu lernen. Etwa 500 bis 1000 Wörter reichen aus, um einfache Unterhaltungen zu führen. Diese sollte man am besten mit einer bewährten Methode wie Karteikarten oder digitalen Vokabeltrainern wiederholen. Gleichzeitig lernt man die Grundgrammatik: Satzbau, Verben, Frageformen und die wichtigsten Zeiten. Regelmäßigkeit ist entscheidend. Täglich etwa 1 bis 2 Stunden Lernen bringt mehr als gelegentlich lange Einheiten. Ein guter Mix aus Lesen, Hören, Schreiben und Sprechen sorgt dafür, dass die Sprache im Gedächtnis bleibt. Podcasts, Serien oder Lieder helfen beim Hörverstehen und bringen ein Gefühl für Sprachmelodie und Redewendungen. Sprechen sollte so früh wie möglich geübt werden. Das kann mit einem Sprachpartner, in einem Kurs, mit einem Tutor oder auch alleine durch lautes Nachsprechen geschehen. Fehler sind normal und gehören zum Prozess. Wichtig ist, dass man sich traut, die Sprache aktiv zu benutzen. Nach etwa einem Monat kann man beginnen, einfache Texte zu lesen und kleine Texte selbst zu schreiben. Tagebucheinträge, E-Mails oder kurze Dialoge helfen, die Sprache aktiv zu verarbeiten. Es ist sinnvoll, sich dabei korrigieren zu lassen, etwa durch einen Sprachtrainer oder eine App mit Feedbackfunktion. Im zweiten und dritten Monat geht es darum, das Gelernte zu festigen und zu vertiefen. Man erweitert den Wortschatz, lernt häufige Redewendungen und beginnt, flüssiger zu sprechen. Durch Konversationen, Filme, Bücher oder Nachrichten in der Zielsprache kommt man der Alltagssprache näher. Auch das Denken in der Fremdsprache kann geübt werden, indem man innere Monologe oder Beobachtungen auf dieser Sprache formuliert. Wichtig ist auch, die Motivation aufrechtzuerhalten. Ein fester Zeitplan, kleine Erfolgserlebnisse, Austausch mit anderen Lernenden oder ein bevorstehender Sprachaufenthalt können helfen, dranzubleiben. Nach drei Monaten intensiven Lernens ist es möglich, einfache bis mittelschwere Gespräche zu führen, Texte zu verstehen und sich im Alltag gut zu orientieren. Die Sprache wird noch nicht perfekt sein, aber funktional. Mit weiterem Üben kann darauf aufgebaut werden. Wenn du Interesse hast, in einer Gruppe von Gleichgesinnten unter Anleitung eines polyglotten Speedlearning Coaches in 3 Monaten deine Zielsprache zu lernen, dann schreib uns unter: info@speedlearning.academy
New Series Alert - all about students In the kickoff episode of Series 12, Dan and Ray set the stage for a deep dive into AI from the student's perspective. Why are students confused about AI? How are they actually using it - and how should they be using it? The hosts explore the idea that AI can act as a tutor, a teacher, or a shortcut (a "cheater") and reflect on how this plays out in real classrooms and learning experiences. They also caught up on plenty of news this week - transdisciplinary learning models, new AI education policies from countries like China and the UAE, and how major tech players like Microsoft and Google are adapting their tools for younger learners. The episode also highlights a new meta-analysis on ChatGPT's effect on student learning. UAE AI Curriculum Changes China AI Curriculum Changes Microsoft's new announcement on Microsoft 365 Copilot for students 13+ The meta analysis paper is The effect of ChatGPT on students' learning performance, learning perception, and higher-order thinking: insights from a meta-analysis Finally, there's two things we ask you, the listener, for in this episode: If you haven't already, pop into your podcast app and give us a rating and review Help shape this season by connecting the podcast with students and researchers who can share insights into real-life student experiences with AI Have feedback or want to get involved?

Let's be real. If your tutoring business has started to feel overwhelming, unpredictable or just bloody hard… you are not alone. In this episode, I'm getting a bit ranty (in a loving way) because I see way too many brilliant tutors building businesses that are burning them out, and not paying them properly. If you're spending hours chasing payments, running sessions, answering messages, doing late-night admin… and still wondering, “Why am I not getting ahead?” This is your wake-up call. I'm sharing: Why more students won't fix your business (and what will) The 3 simple systems that changed everything for me - and will change things for you too! How to move from overwhelmed and underpaid… to clear, confident and actually profitable Why being “just a tutor” is not the problem, but winging it is And the real reason so many people stay stuck (even when they're working more than they did in the classroom) This episode is for you if: → You're booked (or busy) but not paying yourself properly → You're second-guessing everything and stuck in the day-to-day → You know things need to change — but you don't know where to start You've done the hard bit. You've started. You've built something. But now it's time to clean it up — and build a tutoring business that actually works for you. Links that I mentioned in this episode:

Sign-up for my free 20-day devotional, The Word Before Work Foundations, at http://TWBWFoundations.com--Series: Five Mere ChristiansDevotional: 5 of 5[Jesus said,] remain in my love...I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. (John 15:9, 11)The search for joy was the dominant theme of C.S. Lewis's life. And he sought it apart from Christ in all the usual (and some unusual) places: alcohol abuse, an alleged affair with his dead best friend's mom, and perhaps most relatably his career.In 1925, after years of professional disappointments, Lewis landed his dream job as Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Magdalen College in Oxford. In an induction ceremony that had all the pomp and circumstance a 467-year-old college can muster, Lewis knelt before the president of Magdalen College, who dramatically met his gaze and declared, “I wish you joy.” Lewis then rose and proceeded around the room, stopping in front of each new colleague who echoed the refrain: “I wish you joy,” “I wish you joy,” “I wish you joy.”I guarantee you that in that moment, C.S. Lewis believed he had finally found joy in the ultimate. He had achieved his vocational dream! But by God's grace, Lewis came to learn what every successful professional inevitably does: that without Christ, even a dream job will eventually turn into a nightmare. It is only by remaining in Christ's love that “your joy may be complete” (see John 15:11). Here's how Lewis himself said it years later: “God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.”Is it wrong to find joy in our work? Absolutely not! God created us to love our jobs (see Genesis 1:26-28 and Ecclesiastes 2:24). But Lewis's story and today's passage remind us that we mere Christians glorify God by finding our ultimate joy in Christ and not our work.Is your mood perfectly correlated to whether you're winning at work? Do you spend less time with the Lord when things aren't going your way? Are you unable to enjoy God's gift of rest from your work? Take it from someone with loads of experience in this area: If you answered yes to any of those questions, you're probably looking to your work to provide you with the ultimate joy that can be found only in Christ.If that's you, let me encourage you to do three things right now: Confess your idolatry to God and other believers Meditate on the gospel Ask the Lord for his power to enjoy the good gift of work without turning it into an idolatrous ultimate goodIn doing this, you will be glorifying God as you work today!

Das klingt nach einer echten Herausforderung – aber mit maximalem Fokus, Speedlearning und richtigem Mindset kann man in 3 Tagen zumindest eine solide Basis in einer neuen Sprache schaffen. Nicht fließend, aber funktional: verstehen, einfache Sätze bilden, erste Gespräche führen. So können wir das gemeinsam schaffen: Bevor's losgeht: Was genau willst du können nach 3 Tagen? - Alltagssprache? (z. B. reisen, Smalltalk) - Berufssprache? (z. B. Meetings) - Nur passives Verstehen oder auch aktiv sprechen?
The new presidential administration brings with it a fresh approach to cryptocurrency regulation and enforcement, with regulatory experts predicting greater collaboration between the SEC and industry leaders and a more tailored enforcement agenda focused on fraud and retail issues. This episode of In the Public Interest features a timely conversation with co-host Michael Dawson and WilmerHale Special Counsel David Tutor about the current state of the cryptocurrency landscape. Before joining the firm, Tutor spent seven years as senior counsel in the Division of Enforcement at the SEC, where he was a member of both the Cyber Unit and Asset Management Unit. Throughout the episode, Tutor comments on the latest developments coming from the SEC and key areas he expects the Commission to focus on under the Trump administration. He also discusses his time in government service and how it impacts the counsel he gives to clients today.Related ResourcesCrypto Currently: Crypto News CenterSign up for the Crypto Currently Weekly Digest NewsletterThe State of Meme Coin Regulation: SEC Staff's Statement and Other ConsiderationsSEC Announces New “Cyber and Emerging Technologies Unit” and Signals Return to First Trump Administration Fraud- and Retail-Focused Enforcement Priorities
Episode 165In today's guest episode it is a very welcome return to the podcast for Darren Freebury-Jones. Darren appeared previously to discuss his book ‘Shakespeare's Borrowed Feathers' and I asked him back on this occasion because his earlier book ‘Shakespeare's Tutor: The Influence of Thomas Kyd' is now published in a paperback edition by Manchester University Press, making it a much more accessible resource for any enthusiast of early modern theatre. In our conversation about the book Darren mentions a few points, like the detail of verse structure and characters like Robert Greene and Thomas Nashe that we discussed in more detail in our earlier encounter. If you would like to listen to that again it is still out there on the podcast feed as episode 126, that's season six episode thirteen.Dr Darren Freebury-Jones is author of the monographs: Reading Robert Greene: Recovering Shakespeare's Rival, Shakespeare's Tutor: The Influence of Thomas Kyd, and Shakespeare's Borrowed Feathers. He is also Associate Editor for the first critical edition of The Collected Works of Thomas Kyd since 1901. He has investigated the boundaries of John Marston's dramatic corpus as part of the Oxford Marston project and is General Editor for The Collected Plays of Robert Greene, also published by Edinburgh University Press. His findings on the works of Shakespeare and his contemporaries have been discussed in national newspapers such as The Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Observer, and The Independent as well as BBC Radio. His debut poetry collection, Rambling, was published by Broken Sleep Books in 2024. In 2023 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society in recognition of his contributions to historical scholarship.Amazon UK link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Shakespeares-Tutor-Influence-Thomas-Kyd/dp/1526182610/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0Amazon US Link: https://www.amazon.com/Shakespeares-tutor-influence-Thomas-Kyd/dp/1526182610/ref=sr_1_1?Manchester Universty Press link: https://manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526182616/Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Jeremy and Sarah have a daughter who's a sophomore in high school. She has all As and Bs, except she's failing her math class. Sarah wants to get her a tutor over the summer so that she never falls behind in math again, but Jeremy is more laid back. He says it's obvious that their daughter won't be an engineer, so it's not important that she focuses on math - she should focus on the subjects she excels in! Whose side are you on?
Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Catherine of Aragon (1485-1536), the youngest child of the newly dominant Spanish rulers Ferdinand and Isabella. When she was 3, her parents contracted her to marry Arthur, Prince of Wales, the heir to the Tudor king Henry VII in order to strengthen Spain's alliances, since Henry's kingdom was a longstanding trade partner and an enemy of Spain's greatest enemy, France. For the next decade Catherine had the best humanist education available, preparing her for her expected life as queen and drawing inspiration from her warrior mother. She arrived in London to be married when she was 15 but within a few months she was widowed, her situation uncertain and left relatively impoverished for someone of her status. Rather than return home, Catherine stayed and married her late husband's brother, Henry VIII. In her view and that of many around her, she was an exemplary queen and, even after Henry VIII had arranged the annulment of their marriage for the chance of a male heir with Anne Boleyn, Catherine continued to consider herself his only queen.With Lucy Wooding Langford Fellow and Tutor in History at Lincoln College, University of Oxford and Professor of Early Modern History at Oxford Maria Hayward Professor of Early Modern History at the University of SouthamptonAnd Gonzalo Velasco Berenguer Lecturer in Global Medieval and Early Modern History at the University of BristolProducer: Simon Tillotson In Our Time is a BBC Studios Audio ProductionReading list:Michelle Beer, Queenship at the Renaissance Courts of Britain: Catherine of Aragon and Margaret Tudor, 1503-1533 (Royal Historical Society, 2018)G.
