How to End Your Summer Internship on a Good Note
How to End Your Summer Internship on a Good Note Image via Isorepublic.com Good things to do before you leave your summer internship Here are a few things you should do before the last day of your summer internship to help you finish off on a good note. Letâs discuss some of those things! Set up a meeting with your supervisor Before you finish your summer internship, it is extremely important that you meet with your supervisor. In fact, you should schedule a quick meeting with them to touch base and to tie up any loose ends before you leave. This meeting is a good opportunity to leave your supervisor on a good note. During this meeting, let them know what you have accomplished throughout your time at the company. Of course, donât brag while you do this. Let them know the state of your project, and what the next steps will be (in other words, what tasks will your successor be responsible for?). You could also ask your supervisor to evaluate your job performance. Itâs a good idea to ask them if there is anything you can improve in. You can keep their answer in mind when you prepare for your next internship or job. For example, your supervisor might tell you that you need to pay more attention to detail. With this information, you now know to pay attention to detail in your next internship. Further, if you have any questions about their industry, or the next steps you should take to prepare for a successful career in their industry, now is the time to ask them questions. You will regret leaving their office with questions unanswered! If you meet with your supervisor before you leave, you will be able to tie up many loose ends and finish your internship on a good note. Ask your supervisor for a letter of recommendation Another question you can ask during your meeting with your supervisor is if they are willing to write you a letter of recommendation. This is especially important if you will be applying to graduate school, medical school, or jobs within the next year. Nowadays, hiring managers and admissions committees are putting more emphasis on letters of recommendation, so it is imperative that your letters are outstanding. If your supervisor has seen you work hard, they could be a great candidate to write you a strong letter for these applications, because they can attest to your strong work ethic. Even if you wonât be applying anywhere for another year or two, it still wonât hurt to ask! When it comes time for you to apply to these positions, youâll be relieved that you already have at least one person who will write you a letter. Asking your supervisor for a letter of recommendation is a great thing to do before finishing your summer internship. Touch base with your co-workers Similarly, you should touch base with your co-workers before you leave your summer internship. Just as you did with your supervisor, you should let your co-workers know whatâs happening with your project. More specifically, tell them about what you have done so far and what needs to be done next in regard to your project. Of course, if youâve become good friends with them, you could go out to lunch one last time and talk about non-work stuff. You can exchange numbers and social media handles if you havenât already, as keeping in touch with them is very important! You can even start discussing who will pick up your work where you left off (in other words, your successor). This brings me to my next point⦠Infographic by Alyssa Laffitte Offer to train your successor If you were involved in a big project during your summer internship, the company will likely want to continue this project. However, you wonât be there to continue it. This means someone else will have to take over your project. Before you leave, you could offer to help choose your successor. This way, you can help choose someone who can gracefully pick up where you left off. You can suggest a co-worker that you know is capable of doing what you did. If your successor has already been chosen, you can also offer to train them. You should tell this person what you have been doing, and what they will be expected to do once you are gone. This will make their new responsibilities much less overwhelming for them, since they will already know what to expect. At the very least, write up a quick report to detail what youâve been doing for your project and what your successor will need to do to keep it going. Before you leave your summer internship, try to have a successor in place to take over your project, and you can even offer to train them. Complete any remaining work Your project might still have some loose ends that you need to tie up before you leave. For example, have you finished all your reports? Are there a few documents left for you to review? Take advantage of your last few days at your summer internship to make sure these final things get done. Your supervisor will not be happy if you leave some work unfinished, so try your best to tie up those loose ends and get everything done before you leave on your last day. This is important if you want to leave your internship on a good note. Turn in any paperwork Of course, this will vary from workplace to workplace. But before you leave, make sure you donât have to turn in any extra paperwork. In some workplaces, you might need to submit a formal letter or report before you leave. (Personally, for my summer internship, I needed to finalize a few documents before I left. It would have been bad to leave without doing this!) In other words, turning in any final, remaining paperwork will help you finish your summer internship on a good note. Clean up your workspace A clean workspace is a good fresh start for your successor. For that reason, it is common courtesy to leave your workspace neat and tidy when you finish your internship. Before you finish your summer internship, please take a few minutes to clean up your workspace. Throw away any water bottles you might have left on your desk. Tidy up the organizational spaces. Put things back where they belong. This will make it easier for the next person to move into your office once you leave your summer internship. Good things to do once you have finished your internship Even after the last day of your summer internship, there are still a few things you should do before the school year starts to help you get the most from your internship experience. Letâs discuss some of those things! Send a thank-you note This may seem like an old-fashioned thing to do, but sending a thank-you note to the people from your summer internship is a great way to wrap up your internship. Thank-you notes are a wonderful sign of appreciation and respect (Bonus points if you hand write an actual card!). Once you finish your internship, handwrite a card and send it to your old workplace. Your supervisor and co-workers will be very touched to receive it! (And they will definitely remember your short note when itâs time for them to write you a recommendation letter!) Sending a thank-you card to your supervisor and even your co-workers at your internship is a fantastic way to end your internship. Update your resume and your LinkedIn profile Unfortunately, many college students donât touch their resumes or their LinkedIn profiles until itâs time for them to look for a job or an internship. This is a bad habit that you should not fall into! Instead, get into the habit of updating your resume and your LinkedIn profile often. If you update your resume and your LinkedIn often, you will not have to scramble to update them the night before an application is due (which will make you more likely to leave out something important!). Try to update these documents whenever something important happens. Your resume and your LinkedIn will always be up to date if you do this! For example, update them when you join a new student organization. Update them when you finish an internship. Update them when you graduate. Update them when you receive a new honor. These things are important, and will make your application stand out. (Another advantage of updating your LinkedIn right after you finish your internship is that you can ask to â connectâ with your co-workers from your internship!) Once you finish your summer internship, update your resume and your LinkedIn profile! Reflect on your internship experience Now that youâve finished your internship, take a few minutes to think about your experience. What did you like about it? What did you not like? Could you see yourself working full time in that kind of career? Is there something you would have done differently? Reflecting on these questions, and your answers to them, can help guide you as you prepare for your career. If you realize you didnât like your internship, now is the time to realize it and to correct your course to help you prepare for a career you WILL enjoy. The wonderful thing about internships is that they give you the experience of a job you might want to have in the future. You will have a much better idea of what a career in your dream field is like after an internship. In other words, an internship gives you the opportunity to âtest driveâ a certain job, because as an intern, you are working as if you have the job. Because of this experience, you might realize you donât like the job you have been dreaming about. Next year, you can choose a different type of internship, until you find something you truly love. On the other hand, you might realize you love the job after interning for a few weeks in the field. It will make you more confident about your career path. Thatâs the whole purpose of an internship, to help you discover what you love! When you take the time to reflect on your internship, you will get to know yourself and your professional goals better. Image via Isorepublic.com Stay in touch with the people from your internship Have you ever heard the phrase, âDonât burn bridgesâ? This phrase tells us to not cut ourselves off from our old friends, school, workplace, or supervisor. I recommend you donât âburn the bridgeâ you built during your summer internship. Keep in touch with your supervisor and with your co-workers. Make sure you have your supervisorâs email address and phone number. Keeping in touch with them doesnât have to be awkward. Send them a quick email when something important happens in your life. Write them a congratulatory note if they get a promotion. Visit them if you are ever in the area. These things will help you stay in touch with the people you met this summer. You never know if someone there will be a helpful connection for you, or if you will be a helpful connection to them! For this reason, itâs important to stay in touch with the people you met during your summer internship. Summer internships are great ways to expand your skill set and to spend your summer productively. They are awesome networking and learning opportunities. But now that your summer internship is coming to an end, consider my tips to help you finish off your summer internship on a good note.
Step by Step Choosing a Personal Tutor
Step by Step Choosing a Personal Tutor Ok, youre embarking on the journey of learning something new. Youve been taking courses, online seminars and reading up on Wikipedia, among others. Probably, youve started exercising your mind as early as kindergarten and improved your knowledge throughout your life. But the most effective way to study is with personal guidance specialists who are ready to teach the subject individually; tutors offer these services. The key to a successful educational experience with a tutor, and the resulting knowledge development, is to understand if the chosen tutor will fit your requirements and satisfy your knowledge necessities. Your tutor should possess a number of qualities: ability to plan an optimal studying schedule, sufficient experience in the field of study, and the skill to tailor the lessons to the individual needs of each student. This ultimately will make the tutor become an authority in the eyes of the student. Despite the large number of people offering tutoring services, there is a limited number of professionals capable of providing high-quality tutoring services. Therefore, choosing a tutor is not an easy task. Tutoring is offered by many people, ranging from high-school students over post-graduates to university professors. Surprisingly, few of them are able to provide an adequate level of training. Inexperienced tutors with lower skill levels can easily be distinguished from others in the same field. As a rule, these people offer services of training for all ages. A higher level training is typically provided only when a tutor teaches in a narrow set of subjects. The hourly price is also an important point to evaluate a tutors services. The hourly rate of a tutor should be the same irrespective of whether one or a group of students are being taught. And if the tutor offers a free trial lesson, you should be careful about him or her. The offer tends to resemble a promotional sale. Also, you better not trust a tutor who promises very quick results or A-grades in a very short period of time. To find a tutor, get a recommendation from a family member or friend. Should that not be an option the Internet has become a great resource of tutoring. You can try to analyze the candidate based on the following requirements: ⢠It is a good idea to define your target. What result you are expecting to obtain from a tutoring service; why do you need a tutor? If you want to study the subject deeply, you better look for university professors and instructors with a robust academic background. If you need to bring up a childs academic performanceâ"or learn the basicsâ" feel free to choose a student as a teacher. ⢠It is advisable that your teacher has previous tutoring experience. You will be able to identify that by looking at how confident he/she manages the class, does he/she inspire interest and desire to keep on studying? The selected tutor should not deliberately blame for mistakes, and he or she must bring original, memorable examples; this shows a good knowledge of the subject. ⢠Try asking your tutor a basic question. In any case, a good tutor will patiently and clearly explain the answer. He or she would not make you search for the answer in books or the Internet. After all, a good tutor must have the ability to explain clearly and understandably a challenging concept, he or she must have at his or her disposal a number of different techniques, and these techniques must be used on a regular basis to enhance the learning experience. A person looking for knowledge with the help of a tutor needs to understand that, in any case, the responsibility for studying lies on the student, not the tutor. Thus, students need to prepare themselves in advance so that the tutor can use the time efficiently, thus maximizing the students value. Ultimately, a students scholarly success rests on his will and hard work. In summary, a tutor can be a valuable guide on a students way to ace the course or get accepted in that Ivy League university. Selecting the right tutor for your needs is important. Choose a tutor that has sufficient qualifications and excellent tutoring skills and one that feels right.

5 tips to learn Latin quickly!
5 tips to learn Latin quickly! How to Learn Latin Quickly! Chapters1. Learn a little bit of Latin Vocabulary2. Create Mental Pictures to Learn Latin Quickly! 3. Mobilize the Theory of Multiple Intelligences4. Use the Spaced Repetition Method to Learn Latin Rapidly! 5. Finding Mnemonic TechniquesIf you are fascinated by Roman civilization, history, geography, the ancient world of Greece and Rome and by ancient languages, choose the Latin option in secondary school. Making this decision will drastically help you if you are learning other Latin-based languages such as French or Italian. A common trend among Latin students is that after they have finished their last classes and years go by they have completely forgotten what they learnt. All those late hours of studying go completely wasted!Once a vast empire, Roman culture still continues to fascinate people all over the world. Learning Latin has never been so cool! (Source: Visual Hunt)This may have to do with the teaching you received in High School, Latin is mostly taught in a way that you have to remember things by heart; reciting each word with the first Latin declination and learning the cases (nominative, accusative, vocative, genitive, dative and ablative), without understanding the purpose of why you are learning Latin. At 15 years old, we may lack the motivation to play with Latin words and, for example, establish a bridge between the numerous European languages which Latin has birthed. We may not realize that learning Latin will help us better understand the syntax and grammar of Spanish and other Latin-based languages.In addition, dead languages, such as ancient Greek or Latin, may lose peoples interest in comparison to other subject matters or spoken languages used today. This can result in making learning Latin, boring, soporific and uninteresting. It is impossible to learn Latin quickly if you have those prejudgementsâ¦For experienced Latin students, teaching the exploration of classic Latin letters results in the interest of familiarizing yourself with ancient Roman texts written in the past and reading more about the history of literature, these strategies result in creating better students. Therefore, here are 5 tips to learn Latin quickly.Remembering all Latins nouns, irregular verbs, qualifying adjectives or prepositions can seem like a bit of a headache especially for those who do not a visual memory. With Latin being a dead language, it is not spoken commonly as a mother tongue and is merely found in books.However, it is once again being taught in schools!With that being said, it is much easier to learn Latin when you base your studying on written works rather than audio files. In the mother tongue of Cicero and Seneca the Younger, there are many grammar points that can be easily confused: where to place the supine, how to determine the accusative from the dative, how to conjugate the verb to be, how to remember each declination?Creating a mind map, or in other words, a heuristics diagram can be a great help.This method con sists of putting down on paper a visual diagram that ranks the English words or each word form in Latin. Itâs a very well known technique used in cognitive science to summarize a book, prepare for an exam or learn a new language. For example, we draw in different colours the superlatives issimus, errimus and illimus in a shaded box in the middle of a page, then we associate with each one the radical of the adjective, writing down expressions or comparisons for each relation. This helps to retain more clearly the relative superlatives and the absolute superiority: doctus (the wise one) becomes doctissimus which means, âthe wisest one.â Soliciting the efforts from both sides of the brain and establishing links between ideas, the student will go directly to learning the most essential Latin and will create a shorter circuit to ease their memorization.4. Use the Spaced Repetition Method to Learn Latin Rapidly!There is nothing more boring and pointless than endlessly reviewing page s and pages of Latin theory and conjugation tables. When we read texts in an intensive way, âit goes through one ear and out the other.â Swallowing a colossal mass of Greek and Latin vocabulary during one sitting is frankly impossible and is the recipe for a learning indigestion! Our brain does not work in a photographic mode to maximize its retention of knowledge, it needs to take little bits of information and repeat, ruminate, revise and then repeat again. Thatâs the reason why it is preferable to take language classes at a balanced rhythm that contain regular, spaced intervals. This will make learning a lot more entertaining.The spaced repetition method was theorized by philosopher Allemand Hermann Ebbinghaus (1850-1909), who was considered being the father of experimental learning psychology. In fact, to avoid being overloaded, our brain sorts selects and in an exceptional way constantly forgets information that it judges not to be important. Now with this theory, the r epetitions of Latin phrases or quotations, the infinitive or subordinate proposition of a Latin grammar point, will diminish the impact and the time of forgetting and we can, therefore, increase the time between each revision session.Thatâs the forgetting curve put into practice by H. Ebbinghaus during the process of learning.Carefully spaced classes about Greek and Roman civilization, mythology or Latin literature (Ovid, Horace, Pliny the Elder, Pliny the Younger, etc.) will anchor each piece of information in the mind and create automatisms that will enable us to bring out the idea naturally.Taking your time is, paradoxically, the greatest method that can win you precious time.To learn Latin in a quick and practical way, it is better to do 10 sessions of revision for 20 minutes each time spread across one to two weeks, than an intensive two-hour session. 5. Finding Mnemonic TechniquesLearning the Latin language comes a little bit easier for those who are living in Latin-based co untries such as, France, Italy, Spain, Romania, Portugal, Switzerland, Belgium, Quebec and the Latin American continent, than those who speak Germanic languages or even worse for those who speak Asian languages. Therefore, your mother tongue does play a key role. If you speak a Latin-based language, the etymological roots and Latin origins will come easier because it is as if your linguistic ancestors were from ancient Rome itself. To memorize the morphologic skeleton or this Italic language, mnemonic techniques need to be used in order to simplify and facilitate the learning process.
