What is it Like to Attend Wheaton College in Illinois

What is it Like to Attend Wheaton College in Illinois The tutors behind Varsity Tutors are not just here to teach theyre sharing their college experiences as well. Noah graduated in 2008 from Wheaton College in Illinois with a Bachelors degree in Chemistry. He currently tutors in Chicago, specializing in Algebra tutoring, Essay Editing tutoring, Accounting tutoring, and more. Check out his review of his alma mater: VT: Describe the campus setting and transportation options.How urban or safe is the campus?Are there buses or do you need a car/bike? Noah: The campus is tucked into a quiet residential area a few blocks away from the downtown. It is only 40 minutes from downtown Chicago, but you would never find it unless you knew to look for it. The whole campus is centralized, and you can walk from one side to the other in less than 15 minutes. Most students walk around campus, and on the coldest winter days some drive. You can find an occasional skateboarder or even a rogue scooter weaving its way through foot traffic. There is also a campus shuttle available to students for the extra long walks between the far edges of campus. Bikes are an option, but cars and bikes arent necessary. Freshman cannot have a car on campus, though sophomores and up can have a car. The campus is probably one of the safest in America, and the community and the college have a very good relationship. VT: How available are the professors, academic advisers, and teaching assistants? Noah: The professors and staff are incredibly friendly and accessible. I always felt welcome to come in during office hours and talk about anything on my mind. They were available for meals in the cafeteria also! The professors and TAs would always respond to phone calls or emails as well. Thanks to the small class sizes, there was a tight community even between students and staff. With such a small student body, you could choose to have the same professor multiple times throughout your college coursework if you chose. VT: How would you describe the dorm life rooms, dining options, location, socialization opportunities with other students? Noah: The dorm life was one of my favorite parts of Wheaton College. Freshman dorms usually had between 25-40 people on a floor. The standard setup was either to share a bathroom between two roommate pairs (4 people) or to have a large centralized bathroom on the floor. The RA was responsible for creating a positive social setting on the floor, and most friendships seemed to be centered around the dorm living situations. The rooms are small, shared between 2-3 people, but there are shared community spaces on the floor and in the dorm that can be used for socializing and studying. There is one dining hall located in the center of campus. In the past few years it has been ranked the #1 college cafeteria in America! I enjoyed the food enough to get the maximum meal plan available all 4 years of college. There are also two cafes on campus that sell food all throughout the day for those who prefer something other than the cafeteria. The Stupe is the cafe where many students get their studying done, but since its also the social hub of campus, you usually go with friends and dont get much done other than hanging out with friends. Since the campus is tucked away from standard social options (mall, movie theater, etc), the students spend a lot of time together on campus. The college provides a lot of organized social activities also. Downtown Wheaton is a short 20 minute walk down the road, and the Metra Union Pacific West train station is located right at the edge of campus, taking you straight into downtown Chicago. There is mandatory all-school chapel time for 45 minutes every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and the college does a great job of making this a valuable time to grow personally and spiritually. Its also a nice chance to connect with friends and as a community since the whole campus gathers in one place so often. VT: Which majors/programs are best represented and supported?What did you study and why? Did the university do a good job supporting your particular area of study? Noah: Wheaton has a strong business program, and has a well-regarded Music Conservatory. The natural and social sciences seem well-represented as well. I studied both Chemistry and Theology as a double major. The Chemistry degree was part of my Pre-Med studies. Both my father and grandfather got advanced degrees in Chemistry, so it seemed like a natural choice for me. Wheaton College requires all students to take a minimum number of Theology courses, so getting the major wasnt that big of a stretch. Wheaton College has a Theology Graduate program, so the professors mix back and forth between teaching the graduate and undergrad students. I had to take advantage of the opportunity to learn from such amazing professors! I had a very small group of students go through the Chemistry track with me, so I got to know the professors and students well. I felt like I had a very personal academic experience due to all the support I received in both my majors. VT: How easy or difficult was it for you to meet people and make friends as a freshman? Does Greek life play a significant role in the campus social life? Noah: I didnt know a single person when I arrived on campus for the first time. The college has an amazing welcome week for freshman, and I had plenty of opportunities to meet new friends and connect with people. The dorm life provided the setting to build some of the closest friendships I have to this day. I feel like the dorm setting, dorm life, social activities, and the Community Covenant all combined to create an atmosphere that allowed great community to happen. The Community Covenant is a set of guidelines all students agreed to and signed, with commitments to treat everyone as you want to be treated and restricting alcohol use and certain other behaviors. There is no Greek life on campus, though being in such a tight-knit underclassmen dorm made me feel like I was in a fraternity. VT: How helpful is the Career Centerand other student support services?Do many reputable companies recruit on campus? Noah: The Career Center is very active on campus and provides a variety of helpful services, including resume review, mock interviews, career direction, internship searches, and referrals. Many reputable companies active in the Illinois area and the Midwest recruit on campus. VT: How are the various study areas such aslibraries, student union, and dorm lounges? Are they over-crowded, easily available, spacious? Noah: There is always a place available to study. Some of the most popular places are the library, the Stupe cafe, and various hidden study rooms spread throughout the campus. I never felt like I couldnt find a quiet place to focus. VT: Describe the surrounding town. What kinds of outside establishments / things to do are there that make it fun, boring, or somewhere in between?To what extent do students go to the downtown area of the city versus staying near campus? Noah: The campus is right in the middle of a quiet suburb, so the pace of life may be too slow for some. The downtown area closes early in the evening, and a car is needed to go to most places off campus. That said, downtown Chicago is a quick/direct train ride away, and students find plenty of fun things to do within the campus community. A lot of time is spent in organized activities, like intramural sports and campus groups. Since most people stay on or near campus, I never felt like I needed to go off campus to connect with people or have fun. Its rumored that Wheaton has the most churches per capita in the US. I dont know if thats true, but most students were actively involved in a church nearby. VT: How big or small is the student body? Were you generally pleased or displeased with the typical class sizes? Noah: The student body is relatively small, around 2,000 students in undergrad. I loved that the class sizes seemed tiny at times, with a little too much attention on you if you missed class or fell asleep! My Chemistry classes ranged from just 5 students to around 30 students. In general, I felt like 20-30 students per class was standard. This meant the professor was very available to students, both in and out of class. VT: Describe one memorable experience with a professor and/or class. Perhaps one you loved the most or one youregretthe most. Noah: Chemistry labs werent my favorite part of college in general, but I remember having a lot of fun in my advanced Biochemistry Chemistry lab. By this point in college, I had been with the same group of Chemistry students for a few semesters, and we were a pretty tight-knit group. Even though the lab was way too early in the morning, we found a way to have our fun (while still getting the assignments done). I guess this is a reflection on the second half of college in general, that after going through tough courses together with the same small set of people for two years, you really develop a bond that makes college that much more enjoyable.

Cool Songs to Learn on Guitar How to Play Breathe

Cool Songs to Learn on Guitar How to Play Breathe Suzy S. Ready to learn a cool song on the guitar? Here, Lowell, IN teacher  Blake C.  shares his guide to the acoustic version of Anna Nalicks Breathe Looking for cool songs to learn on guitar? Youve probably seen the typical suggestions, such as Black Dog by Led Zeppelin or Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne, but there are a lot more to learn. But theres no point in just listing them outinstead, in this article I will discuss a somewhat unsuspecting cool guitar tune that is fun to play and even more enjoyable for your audiences to listen to, even if your audience is limited to your family. The song Breathe by Anna Nalick is probably not a song that comes to mind when considering cool songs to learn on guitar.  However, the acoustic version of the songI especially like the Rhapsody Originals live version on YouTube performed with one guitaristhas several nuances that spice up the simple guitar part. For the purpose of this blog article, I will review the chords used and some of the nuances that add flavor to the tune. First, listen to the song below. Now well get into learning the chords. The version of the A Major chord played during the verses, as illustrated in Figure 1, is not the initial version of the A Major chord learned by beginner guitarists, but is even easier to play than the usual second fret version of the A Major chord. The chord name is normally written as an A chord without the term Major included in its title. In this version of the A Major chord, the 1st and 5th strings are played open, which creates resonating notes that nicely connect this version of the A Major chord with the next chord played, the G chord. However, like the version of the A Major chord played, the variation of the G chord played is not typically taught to beginner guitarists, but is even easier than the usual G Major chord played on the 2nd and 3rd frets of the guitar. The G chord used in the song requires the guitarist to simply move the A Major chord from the 5th fret location to the 3rd fret, creating a G6/9 chord. Okay, I may have exaggerated a bit about the simplicity of this version of the G chordif played how the guitarist plays the chord, your thumb will play the G note located on the 3rd fret of the 6th string. Playing the G note located on the 3rd fret of the 6th string is not essential to achieve the intended feel of the song, but it is one of the “cool factors” for this version of Breathe. If you struggle with placing your thumb on that note, skip it for now, but make it a goal and continue to work on it. Many transcriptions of this tune are available on the internet, but more often than not are written using the A Major and G Major chords located within the first three frets of the guitar in the place of the A Major and G 6/9 chords used for the version above. A closer listen reveals the resonating 1st and 5th strings in both the A Major and G 6/9 chords. These resonating strings within both chords create another “cool factor” for this tune. It may be simple, but it sounds terrific! Next, the version of the D Major chord is the same version typically taught to beginner guitarists, as illustrated in Figure 3. Then the guitarist plays the A Major chord on the 5th fret as illustrated in Figure 1, but then adds “coolness” to the guitar part by placing his 4th finger  on the 7th fret of the 3rd string to create an Asus4 chord, as illustrated in Figure 4. Before he starts the musical phrase over, he plays a resonating Aadd9 chord by removing the 1st and 4th fingers, which leaves his 2nd and 3rd fingers in place while he strums the all strings from the 5th string to the 1st stringthe Aadd9 chord is illustrated in Figure 5. Once again, simple, but the Aadd9 chord nicely emphasizes the end of that phrase leading to the next phrase. For the pre-chorus, the chords used are A Major, B minortitled as Bm in the chord chartand the same D Major chord illustrated in Figure 3. The B minor chord, which is not necessarily a beginner chord, is played as a barre chord on the 2nd fret, as illustrated in Figure 6. Once you develop your hand and finger strength along with fretboard balance, barre chords are often easier to play than some open position chords. Conversely, the version of the A Major chord played in this section of the song is the same version taught to beginner guitarists, which is located on the 2nd fret of the guitar and illustrated in Figure 7. After the A chord, the guitarist moves to an E Major chord in 1st position as illustrated in Figure 8. Leaving well enough alone would be easier, but not as coolthe guitarist embellishes by hammering the 4th finger onto the 2nd fret of the 3rd string and then individually picking the remaining higher notes of an Esus4 chordm as illustrated in Figure 9. This is subtle, yet extremely cool.Finally, the chorus of this acoustic version of Anna Nalicks Breathe begins with a relatively standard G Major chord, as illustrated in Figure 10. Although this version of the G Major chord is not always taught to beginners, it offers better balance than the usual versions of the G Major chord. The standard version of the open D Major chord, as illustrated in Figure 3, is played which leads to the version of the A Major chord illustrated in Figure 1. The little nuances of this version of the song  are somewhat typical in the world of guitar, and  are definitely worth working on until you can effortlessly insert them into this tune as well as others.

For one, it’s a place with a lot of big personalities that will often clash heads. The tutor will often play the role of an intermediary, like the icing holding layers of a cake together.A tutor will need to know their subject better than the professionals. (Source: Free-Photos)This is why getting a tut or in to train the workforce is a great idea to improve their skills and get them to work together better. Learning about a particular topic, which doesn’t necessarily need to be academic like a Spanish or physics class, can be very rewarding and good for staff.In some cases, the classes can focus on a very specific topic related to their line of work.Of all the reasons to teach private tutorials in a business, some of the best include:Being able to monitor each studentTeam buildingThe unity found within a businessEncouraging progress from adult studentsA higher level of teachingHigher skilled studentsWorking in the heart of a businessEtc.As you can understand, there are plenty of reasons to teach private tutorials in businesses. Teaching private tutorials in businesses is vastly different to teaching exam prep or revision lessons to school children.From the tutor’s point of view, the business is somewhere they can really show off what they can do with specific courses. The empl oyees should already have a good knowledge of how to do their jobs and the field they work in and are probably just looking to get an edge. This means the gap between the tutor and the student is reduced.Teaching in businesses is a distinct way of teaching private tutorials. It’s a thousand miles from teaching tutorials at the student’s home, working with teenagers studying for their GCSEs and A Levels, or helping university student to improve their French.The Particularities of Teaching Private Tutorials in a BusinessTeaching private tutorials in a business is nothing like teaching school students or other private students at their home. While it may be used to supplement your income, it’s definitely not some simple summer job. In fact, the tutor needs to be impeccably trained at knowing their subject like the back of their hands.There are plenty of different classes that could benefit employees. (Source: mohamed_hassan)This is the first main difference when it comes to tutor ing in businesses, your students are already well-versed in their field. If you’re teaching language classes to a group of bankers who do a lot of business overseas, they’ll probably already be familiar with a lot of banking terms. This means that your students won’t feel lost when describing complex terms.An academic support class, be it French, physics, chemistry, or maths, only involves a working relationship between the student and the tutor. When you work in a business, you’ll need to take into account the age of your students when considering your teaching methodology.In fact, you’ll need to adapt your speech to talk to adults while remaining in charge, all without making them feel like children. When you provide private tutorials in a business, you have to establish a sense of trust between the two parties.On the one hand, the tutor is going to teach lessons and be paid for them. On the other hand, the students have to listen, take notes, and learn. This exchange of services reinforces the bond between the two parties and legitimises the teaching.The act of teaching benefits both parties with the tutor earning money and the students gaining knowledge. The business’ workforce will benefit in a way that they wouldn’t otherwise in a typical academic support tutorial, intensive tutorials, or your usual tutoring provided by agencies. However, despite all these advantages, there are also a number of disadvantages to teaching in this way.The Limits of Tutoring in BusinessesWhen you’re hired as a freelancer to teach within in a business to provide the workforce with new skills or knowledge, it isn’t all fun and games. In fact, teaching private tutorials within a business can be difficult for a number of different reasons:It’s not like an academic support tutorial, home tutoring, or teaching someone to play the guitar, you need to be meticulous in your planning and an absolute expert of your subject.You’ll need to have previous experience i n tutoring which you can build upon.Employees at certain businesses are often very confident and sure of their own skills, meaning that they don’t really feel the need to be tutored by an outsider who’s shown up to tell them how to do their jobs.Employees can feel threatened by the arrival of a tutor who’s telling them that they can improve. The staff might feel like they’re being treated like children with the arrival of a teacher. Thus, you have to pay particular attention to not treating them like children while ensuring that they do pay attention to your lessons.And a number of other disadvantages.The world of business can be stressful, but workplace tutorials can help. (Source: StartupStockPhotos)In fact, teaching adults at their workplace isn’t as simple a task as it may first seem. Every kind of student can quickly lose respect for their tutor. You’ll need to carefully consider the limitations of teaching this way.Tutoring is an admirable profession as you need to be in control and an expert of managing conflict and contention. However, teaching private tutorials to students at their place of work is a great way to share knowledge to a team that’s already very good at what they do, as you’d expect from professionals.Don’t forget that tutorials at businesses are often training for the staff. Staff members are often forced to attend training courses and tutorials and probably won’t be too thrilled about having to be dragged away from their work in order to learn how to effectively do a job they feel they’re already very good at.The tutor may end up teaching students who are very unwilling to learn, have no interest in being there, and be as unruly as schoolchildren would be. That said, they’re there to improve as workers, learn new skills, and get better at their jobs, not to pass their GCSEs or A Levels, catch up with their school work, or get into university.Learning from a private tutor in a business can be a very useful thing f or workers and help them in their daily lives. However, like everything else, it has its pros and cons.If you teach in businesses, the way you conduct yourself is going to have to be more professional. (Source: Free-Photos)If you're interested in providing tutoring services, then you should consider making a profile on Superprof. Whether you're offering one on one tutoring, academic tutoring, or online tutoring, you can create a profile detailing what you teach and where you teach it so that when potential students want to find a tutor, they'll find you.You can offer tutorials in any subject from traditional scientific subjects like mathematics (including calculus, algebra, geometry, etc.), chemistry, physics, and biology, humanities like English, history, and things like learning how to play musical instruments, fitness instructors, artistic subjects, study skills.Of course, if you're going to work in businesses teaching adults, they're probably not going to be looking for a chemis try tutor or an English tutor but rather someone specialising in economics, teambuilding, or maybe even foreign language skills like a French tutor.With a bit of preparation, professional development and confidence, an experienced and qualified home tutor can start looking for tutor jobs at businesses or tutoring companies, become an online tutor over webcam, or provide private tuition to undergraduate and postgraduate students before their exams from the comfort of your own classroom or in a library. The choice is yours!
