Can I Get Back to the Exam Center After My Chemistry Semester 2 Exam Review?
Can I Get Back to the Exam Center After My Chemistry Semester 2 Exam Review?If you are an enrolled Chemistry student, a common question is if you can find your way back to the Exam Center after your Chemistry semester 2 exam review. Yes, you can, but here are some things that will help you along the way.One of the best ways to get back to the Exam Center is by arranging a meet up with a friend. Chances are you will be on vacation. No worries; you can just attend the meeting together and spend the time being friends. If you aren't already at your destination, this is a great way to make sure you both have a good time together.The second important thing is to bring along a notebook. This will make it easy for you to keep track of everything during your Chemistry semester 2 exam review. Keeping a list of things that you may have forgotten about can come in handy when you are trying to figure out what you might have missed.The third thing you will want to do is check with your professor to see if there may be any discussion on test taking strategies. You should also ask them what tips they would offer for your Chemistry semester 2 exam review. If your professor doesn't offer any advice, chances are you need to re-think the strategy you use for your exams. It is important to remember that your professor isn't testing you on how much you know, they are testing you on how well you do your homework and take the tests that are given to you.Another good idea is to speak with your professor about any other tips they might have for Chemistry semester 2 exam review. If you get this right you should be fine. Remember, you will still be working towards getting into one of the four chemistry schools.Last but not least, you will want to ensure that you put all your homework away after your Chemistry exam. This is because you will want to work on them and get them turned in to avoid missing out on important material during your Chemistry semester 2 exam review. If you have too m any things to read then you are probably not as focused as you could be. This is especially true if you had a lot of problems on your exam and had to do it over again, this is why it is important to study and practice in advance before your exams.As you can see, there are a lot of things you can do during your Chemistry exam review. You will need to learn how to assess your current skill level so that you can make better decisions about what tactics you are going to use for your next exams. Practice and study are keys to helping you get through your exams and get to where you want to be.

How to Maximize Your High School Extracurriculars
How to Maximize Your High School Extracurriculars This post is part of a week-long series to help new high school and college students prepare for their freshman year. Throughout this week, visit the Varsity Tutors blog for advice, tips, and tricks for this critical transition. High school poses a great opportunity to simultaneously expand your interests while strengthening your college applications through extracurricular activities. Each school varies in its offerings, but youll typically encounter a plethora of options, varying from student council to robotics club. As a high school freshman, though, how do you make the most of your involvement? You can maximize your high school extracurriculars by understanding the requirements of each, stepping out of your comfort zone, and connecting with your peers. Maximize your high school extracurriculars by being reasonable with your time Estimate how much time youll realistically have after school and on weekends for extracurricular activities. Be careful not to overestimate your free timestarting high school can quickly become overwhelming. It takes some adjustment, and your grades are of the utmost importance. If your grades start to suffer because your time is taken up by too many activities, youll need to reassess your priorities. Even if you have the time, it might be overwhelming to have an activity for hours after school every day. Be intentional with how you spend your timeremember that you only have so much. When you do select the appropriate number of activities, the time you dedicate to them will be more meaningful. [RELATED: 4 Things to Know Before Starting High School] Maximize your high school extracurriculars by understanding requirements Clubs and teams have differing requirements and commitments. Before joining, ask an upperclassman or the activity adviser the following questions: Whats the general time commitment for this activity? Will I be required to dedicate weekend time? Who is involved in both participation and advising? If youre about to start mock trial, for example, youll want to know how much practice time will be required leading up to the competition. If youre on a sports team, youll need to know when youll be traveling and what extra equipment youll need. Its much better to know the requirements at the start, rather than later on in the process. Maximize your high school extracurriculars by stepping out of your comfort zone The beauty of starting a new school is that you get to try new things. Maybe youve always played basketball, but youre also interested in art club. Take this opportunity to analyze any interests you may have, and see what your school offers. Trying something new gives you a chance to grow, meet new people, and develop new interests. [RELATED: 5 Qualities of Outstanding High School Leaders] Maximize your high school extracurriculars by getting to know your peers A great benefit of extracurricular activities is the ability to expand your social circle and connect with other students who share your interests. You may meet an entirely different group of people in these activities than you have in your classes. Spend time getting to know the other members of your group to learn about their interests and additional opportunities on campus that they may be involved in. High school can be intimidating, and having a good support system can make things easier. [RELATED: What Does It Mean to Be a Well-Rounded Student?] Extracurricular activities are a chance to learn and grow with your fellow classmates.

What You Should Expect from a Private Tutor 25 Rules (Part 3)
What You Should Expect from a Private Tutor 25 Rules (Part 3) Improving Academic Performance In our previous two articles, we discussed what to expect from a private tutor before and during tutoring sessions. We covered communication, logistics, planning, and specific tutoring strategies and techniques. In this article weâll finish our series of 25 rules by covering rules 21-25 by exploring what to expect after a tutoring session. After the Session The tutoring experience doesnât end when the clock turns off on the session itself. How you interact with the tutor after the session is important and can help make for a positive or negative experience. Immediately following the session, the tutor should summarize quickly the key learnings and takeaways from the session and how it fits into the broader âstudy planâ being followed. This helps reinforce the material in real-time and can take various forms. If the tutoring session was about preparing for the GMAT, as an example, and this was the first diagnostic session with the tutor, the student may not have decided whether or not to continue with the tutor. Still, the tutor should be able to offer some real-time thoughts on, if this relationship were to continue, and even if it doesnât, what the student should be focused on. If the tutoring session was related to a specific subject, like geometry, then the tutor should have some thoughts about what topics are likely to be coming next, how what they discussed today relates to those topics, and how to prepare. An important best practice is for the tutor to send a written summary of the session to the student (and perhaps parent) summarizing what was covered and how it fits into the broader study plan. If this was the first tutoring session, then the written summary could and perhaps should be an actual written study plan documenting how the tutoring relationship will be approached. It is very important to document in written form the plan being followed so a student can reference it and orient themselves to where they are in the tutoring process. In some cases, the tutor may need to do a little research to find online tools or practice problems (i.e., reviewing certain elements of Kahn Academy) to help build a studentâs skills in a given area. If appropriate, you might find a tutor spending some time to research online tools or practice problems to help a student build skills in weaker areas. This is sort of an âextra creditâ best practice. If a student is really struggling with something, there are often web-site or additional materials that can help, and an expert tutor can help identify and direct a student towards those resources. The tutor should include in his or her summary email details on scheduling for the next month or so. Neither party should be surprised that someoneâs schedule has changed or that someone is going on vacation. It is important to be highly structured around scheduling and logistics. At MyGuru, some of our best tutors were unfortunately not strong when it came to scheduling and organization more generally. We had students express that the tutoring sessions themselves were excellent, but getting confirmation of times and dates for future sessions was like pulling teeth. Weâve worked hard to address this. The tutor should be available to respond to simple, easy questions via text or email as part of an effective long-term tutoring relationship. Obviously, âoff-lineâ interaction needs to be kept to a minimum and be within reason. The tutor isnât being paid for this time, after all, so his or her time needs to be respected. That said, the tutoring relationship should not just exist within the confines of the 1-2 hour tutoring sessions. In some cases, more extensive off-line QA sessions via email or text can be a productive part of a tutoring relationship, and something for which weâve charged students at discounted rates. Summary Working with a private tutor is a significant investment. And at the end of the day, itâs on the student and/or parent to âownâ the process and put in the work to extract value out of the experience. At the same time, it is right to expect a lot from your tutor in terms of communication, planning, and, of course, instruction. Hopefully these 25 rules have you thinking about how to get the most out of a tutoring relationship.

2019 Math Perspectives Summer Institute A New Resource Series! - Heart Math Tutoring
2019 Math Perspectives Summer Institute A New Resource Series! - Heart Math Tutoring 2019 Math Perspectives Summer Institute: A New Resource Series! 2019 Math Perspectives Summer Institute: A New Resource Series! August 6, 2019 Earlier this month, we had the opportunity to join educators from around the nation in a week-long training with Kathy Richardson and the Math Perspectives professional development team here in Charlotte. We had the chance to collaborate and encourage one another in creatively and effectively serving our students. As we prepare for a new school year, we are excited to continue growing and strengthening our approach to math instruction. While the training was geared towards teachers, much of what we learned can be implemented by a tutor at any level, strengthening the level of student support during the tutoring sessions. Weâve summarized several learnings below and will expand on each topic in the coming months as we gear up for another great year of tutoring. Check back soon to learn more! The Power of Curiosity We know that children respond honestly when they believe that others are interested in what they have to say, and we know that our students can intuit whether we are pushing for a specific answer or sincerely interested in their thinking. In order to help our students remain inquisitive about the world of math, we need to stay genuinely curious about their learning! Letâs shift our questions away from, âAnd what did you get?â to, âHow did you get there?â If we stay inquisitive about math, our students will too! Get Out of the Way! âWe have to get out of the way of a childâs learning.â Kathy continued to return to this theme all week, consistently emphasizing the importance of discovery and exploration in a childâs development of authentic math understanding. It makes sense, right? When we think of our own mastered skills, how did we get there? In most cases, we gained mastery through our own individual experiences. We need to give students those same opportunities, allowing them to explore which strategies work the best and make the most sense. Defining Mastery What does it mean to master a skill in math? Kathy explained that true mastery looks like a student using a skill, internalizing it to the point that he or she wonât forget it over the summer. She encouraged us to, âKeep practicing until they can do it no matter what, no matter where, no matter when.â Ultimately, we want our students to be able to make sense of numbers and move through the world of mathematics flexibly, efficiently, and accurately. What would it look like if thatâs how we defined mastery? Making Room for Confusion As tutors, I think many of us have experienced that tense feeling when our student is trying to figure out a problemâ¦and gets a little confused. This week, Kathy challenged us to change our view on confusion. She challenged us to begin embracing it as a natural sign of learning rather than interpreting it as failed attempt. If we jump to correct or rescue a child from a confusing situation, we could in fact be denying them an opportunity to discover a strategy or relationship on their own. Thank You, Kathy Math Perspectives Team! â" A Note from Our Executive Director Several from our team had the privilege of eating dinner with Kathy Richardson and her colleagues. Her passion shines through brightly as she reminded our group of how she began to love teaching math in the first place: it was through seeing what happens to students once they realize that they are good at math. Understanding math and numbers helps students understand some things about themselves â" that they count; that they can figure things out; that they are important; and that they have a place in the world. Over 3,000 Heart Tutoring students to date have benefitted from the powerful (and empowering) one-on-one assessment interviews written by Kathy Richardson and Math Perspectives. What an honor, and what fun, to have her in the Queen City for a week! â" Emily Gaffney, Heart Tutoring Executive Director
Algebra Puzzle ~ Climb the Pyramid
Algebra Puzzle ~ Climb the Pyramid Today, I have two algebraic puzzles for all the algebra buffs among you: Climb the Pyramid and Label the Fractions on the number line. But before we jump into it like to mention May Kacharava who usually writes a post each Monday. Today, May is on her well deserved summer vacation. While she relaxes on the beach, I like to pick up on her article campaign labeled cute geometry she created so masterful back in May and June earlier this year. Now, lets have some algebraic puzzle fun! Climb the Pyramids In this algebraic puzzle you need to combine the like terms in the pyramid found below: Start with the empty field on the 2nd row and walk your way all the way to the top. To give you a hint, the missing field on right-hand side at the 2nd row can be found by combining the 3rd and 4th fields from the bottom row. That is: (3x-2) + (x+2) = (3x+x) + (-2+2) = 4x + 0 = 4x Simple, or what? Fractions on the Number Line There are six number lines each missing one label as shown in the picture below: Your task is to deduce the missing label from the already existing labels. Note the length of the number line is in each case 1, or more precisely the interval from 0 to 1. Lets find the missing label on the first number line together. 1/3 is given, there is only one more label in the middle between 1/3 and 1. Thus, the missing label has to be 2/3. Should these two algebra puzzles be too hard, ask one of our algebra tutor for help. They are smart and good-hearted tutors. Give them a try!

Guest Post Summertime Tools to Keep your Mind In Shape
Guest Post Summertime Tools to Keep your Mind In Shape Summertime: Tools to Keep your Mind In Shape During Holidays (Guest Post) Summertime: Tools to Keep your Mind In Shape During Holidays (Guest Post) When you have heard you have finally passed this semesterâs exams, you will be more than ready for a vacation to rest your mind and take your thoughts away from the rigors of the last few months. It probably wonât be long before you find that your mind is looking for another challenge. Fortunately, there are many activities out on the web just suited to keeping your mind in shape. Here is a list of tools to keep your mind in shape. 1. Online courses at Coursera Online courses are available, at little or no cost, that cater for the student like you who is on a long vacation. Coursera, for instance, is a website that acts as a face for many colleges and universities. It lists on its website 4-week long courses that take place at holiday time. The range of specializations is vast, from almost any language to business courses, all types of computer science specializations and courses from the sciences, mathematics, the humanities and practical arts disciplines. A typical 4-week course offered in July by the University of Maryland at College Park is called âDeveloping Innovative Ideas for New Companies: The First Step in Entrepreneurshipâ. This is a great introduction to the budding entrepreneur who wants to kick start a business after graduating. The University of California in San Diego puts on a summer course that is suited to students who believe they havenât fully mastered learning techniques. It is called âLearning How to Learnâ and its aim is to provide the potential learner with powerful mental tools that will assist in the mastering of tough subjects. 2. Online Couses at UdaCity If you have the time available a great way of keeping your mind in shape is to complete a mini online course. At UdaCity, you will find what the website calls ânanodegrees. These are quite long and can take 6 months or more but are in an exciting range of subjects and may be complementary to what you are studying at college or university. 3. Writing skills with Penzu Do you usually spend some of your leisure time writing a personal log or diary about events in your life and your current thoughts? Are you sometimes afraid that someone may get their hands on this very personal document? If you want to have a bit more fun and create an online personal log that is secret, you can sign up with Penzu for your free journal creator. It has some useful features such as the ability to search for past entries which is so much faster and neater than using the old fashioned paper journal. If you are the sort of person that would love to remember to write entries regularly but you forget, Penzu sends you gentle reminders by email. You can compile a journal for different aspects of your life such as a food log or one describing the dreams you have as well as a study log. Penzu provides templates but you can customize the whole layout yourself. 4. Online plagiarism checker made easy with Unplag Now, letâs move on to the subject of next semesterâs essays. When you are collecting and compiling long essays for assessment, there is always a large amount of information accessible on the internet. It can be tempting just to copy and paste large chunks of information straight into your essay. Universities donât allow this, for good reason, as itâs not your personal work. Most essays are checked carefully for plagiarism, and you will be penalized if your essay contains a significant amount of copied text. Fortunately, there is an online plagiarism checker called Unplag you can use at a minimum of cost that can check your essay for plagiarism. You simply load your essay into the box and click. Within a few seconds a report is returned to you highlighting all the parts that have been plagiarized. Using the online plagiarism checker report you can make some quick adjustments so that the sentences are broken up or rewritten sufficiently that your next run through Unplag returns no plagiarism at all. You can send this report with your essay direct to your tutor. 5. Reading skills with Goodreads and LibraryThing How about catching up on some reading? There are some great websites available such as goodreads and librarything that provide information on the latest books and can make recommendations if you input your preferences. They also provide forums for avid readers to share their views on books. It lets you know what people of your own age group like to read. 6. Online video tutorials You can also spend some mind time watching and learning using online video tutorials and lectures such as http://bigthink.com/, https://www.youtube.com/education and https://www.reddit.com/r/lectures/. All in all, summertime is a time you can pick and choose what you do. Itâs all up to you, but there are plenty of ways you can keep your mind in shape and give you a head start when you return to formal study after the holiday is over. Author Bio: Lynn Usrey, a newbie essayist and freelance writer. After graduation from University of Florida at 2013 she has been working as a freelance editor and proofreader. Also she runs a writing course in Orlando, Florida. Visit her LinkedIn page. In addition to this list, stay sharp over break with the help of a private San Diego summer tutor.

6 Comedians College Students Love
6 Comedians College Students Love Photo Via: pixabay.com 1. Chris DâElia Perhaps best known for his interpretation of drunk girls, Chris DâElia is a college favorite, and for good reason. While his stand-up is a bit on the vulgar side, he is a comedian that speaks best to the millennial generation, as his routines are young, fun and upbeat. That being said, he is currently touring and has tickets available for sale, so if youâre looking for a new comedian thatâs likely to speak his mind, this is your guy! 2. Iliza Shlesinger A newer comedian growing exponentially in fame, Iliza Shlesinger brings the female voice to comedy in letting her viewers in on the inner workings of the female brain. Spoiler alert: thereâs a lot going on there. For a preview, check out her comedy album âWar Paint,â and youâll probably get the idea. She has incredible impressions/voice gimmicks that set her stand-up aside from similar female comedians, and itâs her relatability that really resonates with her audience. Again, Iliza is currently touring so tickets are now available for all looking for a good laugh! 3. John Mulaney If youâre going to watch one bit, and one bit only, of John Mulaneyâs, I strongly suggest the Salt and Pepper Diner. And once youâve seen that bit, thereâs no doubt that youâll want to watch the rest of the stand-up that Mulaney has to offer. The Chicago native has had several specials on Netflix, still available for your perusal, and is currently on tour as well, which means that you can see him live. And trust me, youâre going to want to. His super relatable, self-deprecating stand-up routine is going to have you in stitches, without a shadow of a doubt. Youâll fall in love with his dog, Petunia, and youâll fall even harder for his stand-up routine. 4. Amy Schumer One of the biggest names in comedy right now, Amy Schumer has starred in several films, performed stand-up in more cities than you can count and still manages to maintain a semi-normal, relatable and understandable personal life. Schumerâs voice is offensive as much as it is full of heart, which sets her stand-up in a league of its own. She isnât afraid to offend anyone just as she isnât afraid to be herself, whatever that means. If youâre looking for honest stand-up that will have you laughing (and likely cringing as well), this is the person to see! 5. Kevin Hart While currently under a bit of a magnifying glass due to past comments that have taken him out of the running for the Oscars hosting gig, his stand up is still one of the best acts that comedy has to offer. Kevin Hart has sold out stadiums with his stand-up routine, and for good reason. Hart is certainly self-deprecating, but he also has that charisma and natural stage presence that keeps you enthralled from the beginning to the end of his routine. Hart pokes fun at himself, his celebrity friends, money, love life, kids: anything you can think of, he has probably made fun of it. And you can bet itâs hilarious, no matter what! 6. Gabriel Iglesias Known more commonly by his fans as Fluffy, Gabriel Iglesias is the first to tell you that he is not a Hispanic comedian. Heâs just a comedian⦠that happens to be Hispanic. Iglesias can use his voice in ways that are unrecognizable, makes people laugh with his stories of fame and fortune as well as those of his personal, very normal life. Really, Iglesias can make just about everything funny, and after watching just one of his stand-up specials, you will definitely find yourself in love with the comedian. They say that laughter is the best medicine, which holds true in the world of comedians. So while you may have found yourself at the brink of stress throughout the entirety of the past month, itâs time to finally relax and have a good time and, of course, laugh. When it comes to having a good laugh, these six comedians will have you clenching your stomach in fits of laughter, guaranteed. So whether youâre gifting tickets to a friend, family member or roommate, or simply treating yourself to a night on the town full of laughter, these comedians all put on quite a show.
?? 7 Simple Ways to Encourage Your Children to Eat Healthier
?? 7 Simple Ways to Encourage Your Children to Eat Healthier 7 Simple Ways to Encourage Your Children to Eat Healthier Sometimes, children need a little bit of extra encouragement to eat their fruits and vegetables, and if youâre cooking for some particularly fussy eaters, your job can be just a little bit more challenging. Here, youâll find the top seven ways to encourage your children â" and the rest of your family â" to eat better.Jane Rylands from kitchen appliance retailer Belling shares her top tips for encouraging your children to eat healthier1) Use alternative ingredients to create great tasting healthier optionsIn a recent survey, we carried out, 21% of people said that they were unsure how to amend recipes to cater to different tastes and diets. But, one of the simplest ways you can encourage your children to eat healthier and to prepare healthy kid-friendly dinners is to swap some of their favourite ingredients for more nutritious alternatives. For example, consider using sweet potatoes instead of regular ones to make mash, chips and baked potatoes. Cauliflower also makes a great al ternative to potatoes in curries and stews and can be a great substitute for rice. Use a spiraliser to make healthy vegetable versions of noodles and pasta using courgettes and carrots. You can gradually ease the kids into eating these healthier alternatives by mixing them in with your usual noodles. For dessert, you can swap cream and ice cream for yoghurt â" just mix it with berries for a vitamin-packed alternative to a classic ice cream sundae. You can even make your own ice lollies using fresh fruit juice and smoothies. Children need to eat every 3-4 hours, so youâll need snacks. For healthy snacks for kids, try swapping sweets and chocolate bars with small packs of raisins or a banana. Chopped up melon is also a great alternative that children will love. 2) Hide fruits and vegetables in other foods to encourage a healthy daily dietAnother simple way you can get healthier foods into your childâs diet is by âhidingâ it in other meals. This can be as simple as grating vegetables finely and adding them into pasta sauces or soups, adding fruit purees to their morning porridge, or even mixing them into your usual cake mix â" this method is particularly effective in order to make healthy meals for picky kids. 3) Be creative to make healthy food more appealingOne of my best tips to encourage your children to eat better is by making the food more appealing to them. Try cutting fruit into fun shapes, or making pictures using vegetables. To encourage fussy eaters to try new things, consider having them rate their vegetables during each meal. This way, you can keep track of what they do like so you can make more of it. You could even try dedicating your weekly meals to a different fruit or vegetable, working together to come up with creat ive recipes that incorporate that weekâs ingredient. You can then vote on your favourite meals at the end of the month so you can make them again in the future. 4) Bring them along during the weekly shopWhen doing your weekly food shop, bring your kids and ask them to select which fruits and vegetables they want this week. This will let you know which foods they do like, and theyâll be more likely to eat them if they know that theyâve chosen it themselves. This is also a great way to slowly introduce new foods to them5) Grow your own at homeTo get kids excited about eating healthy foods, you could try growing your own fruits and vegetables at home. This is both more environmentally friendly and can help to cut the cost of your weekly shop. Plus, your little ones will be more likely to eat the food theyâve worked hard to grow with you.If you donât have a garden or growing your own produce would be difficult, why not take the kids fruit picking? Itâll give you the opportunity to talk about where their food comes from, and theyâll enjoy eating them after theyâve had a fun day out gathering them all. 6) Ask them to cook with youTry asking children to lend a helping hand when youâre preparing vegetables for dinner. If theyâre too young to hold a knife, ask them to pass you certain vegetables as youâre chopping. Just like growing your own food, knowing youâve both worked hard to prepare the meal together will encourage your children to eat better. Just holding the food in their hands for a while can increase their familiarity with different types of fruits and vegetables, and they may be less reluctant to try them.Allowing children to assemble their own plates or âbuild it yourselfâ meals such as fajitas and sandwiches can also work really well! Simply set out a selection of healthy options and let your kids do the rest. 7) Encourage your children to eat healthily with rewardsTo encourage your children to make these kinds of decisions on their own, reward healthy behaviours with praise. This could be as simple as verbal praise, or you could make a healthy eating rewards chart. For particularly fussy eaters, reward them with a point every time they eat a full serving of vegetables. When they reach a certain number of points, celebrate with a fun family day out to keep the behaviour going. By following these seven simple tips, you can easily encourage your whole family to make healthier food choices.
Tennis Teacher Vs Silent Partner
Tennis Teacher Vs Silent PartnerIn the world of coaching, one thing is certain - you should never be competing with your tennis tutor. Coach-vs-teacher is a clear indication that you are not living up to expectations. But when it comes to tennis, you will be competing with your silent partner (your coach) in a very different way. It is important that both sides understand that they need to work together for a common goal.We have all heard the adage, 'You are what you eat', and that is true for tennis as well. If you are constantly striving to improve yourself, then you will improve with your coach. If you do not pay attention to the coach, then you will never improve. But by doing exactly what your coach tells you to do, you will eventually be able to improve on your own.Here is a tip for anyone seeking a good tennis coach. Look at them through a more critical lens. Instead of just watching them play, let's look at them through their eyes. There will be times when they can help you w ith something, and there will be times when they will not.A good coach understands that you cannot do everything. I don't mean that he is too hard on you, but that he understands the fact that you do not have all the answers. If your coach was not in a position to see you as a student, then he or she would probably ignore you completely. Instead, he or she is genuinely interested in helping you improve your game. They want to make you better.Your coach is your silent partner. There is a lot of hard work involved, but they take pride in their work. It is their job to improve your game. At the same time, they also want to improve their own game. If your coach and your partner are not on the same page, then the outcome could be disastrous.If you are going to play tennis, you must continue to coach yourself. There is a lot of work involved, but you do not need to hire someone else to do it for you. Keep up with your program and build on it. It may be impossible to get all of your skills to be where you want them to be, but you are definitely capable of getting them to a place where they are worth working toward. You must know that your coach has a specific path to follow, and that they are committed to sticking to it. So you better start paying attention to how well they have followed through on it.Teaching your coach how to be a silent partner is much easier said than done. But once you get started, it will become second nature. You will both be enjoying each other's company and you will both be improving your game.
