Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Parents are the first teachers a child interacts with, from age zero to around three or four years when the child is exposed to early childhood education at schools. The parent role at this point is very critical for educating the child in; the culture of the society, religion of the family, the first language of the family and educational mentors among the family. Infants at this age are normally very keen on the happenings on the surrounding, and so they tend to model the behavior of the parents or the caregivers. Parents can help the infants feel secure and protected by playing with them. Infants can learn to build social connections when the parents let them be held by other people when they are around.

Natasha Shetty Teaching Ideas Regardless of whether we’re topmost executives or businesspersons, students or teachers, striking a proper work-life balance is extremely important. While everyone strives to strike this essential work-life balance, our success is usually limited. That occurs because other tasks on hand- either at work or home- steal precious time that was intended for our families. And if you’re a teacher, balancing work and family can become a real circus. A teacher has to be alert and conduct classes in a manner that every student learns. Hence, you need to be well prepared for the next day’s classes, take time to relieve stress, and ensure you have adequate rest. What can teachers do in such scenarios, to balance work and family life? Follow these simple tips....  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences As a child, my mother dropped me off at school every morning before she goes to work. I would go throughout my day at school and stay in the after school programs until my mother picked me up late in the afternoon.

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Is it useful to read stories to my 3-years-old students?

For starters, stories grab visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners’ attention when seeing the images and connecting words and feelings. It is also worth considering that books enrich readers’ vocabulary and strengthen their language skills. Last but not least, readers are motivated, influenced, and inspired when the stories can relate to what they experience in real life and develop life skills. Stories...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Child development is a series of changes that occur from conception to the initiation of adulthood. It is a normal sequence of development where the child undergoes physical changes, emotional/ social growth and advancements in the ability to communicate with others using signs and language.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Family, in general, has a main role in affecting a child's early childhood, growth, development, and most importantly education.

Elizaveta Pachina TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas In education, intelligence is not the only factor but maybe one of the most important ones. Regardless, many factors affect the children's education, such as financial situation, social structure, and even whether it is a developed country or a developing country. However, the role of the parents can not be ignored as it is essential as intelligence. Because children like to imitate what their parents do, parents should be more aware of what they are doing to avoid negative situations. For instance, if parents do not interest in their children's case at school, children will realize this and they begin not paying attention to their education as their parents do. Unfortunately, this will bring failure, and this failure...  [Read more]
