...English Practice Speech Think of a world where your voice is trapped and held back from societal norms and your identity is only defined by your role and not your character. (Pause) Like a mirror, these poets reflect on their isolating experiences from these expectations. As esteemed by both Browning and Owen, we explore the power of poetry to affirm or challenge these concerns of their time. The first poem, Porphyria's Lover, is a Victorian-era monologue where Browning affirms the contextual concerns of gender inequality between men and women and stringent societal norms of men objectifying women to be a certain way. During the Victorian era, domesticity was a woman’s primary role and the man was the “breadwinner.” Women's rights were extremely...

...Carroll L. Banks English 1010 Christina Norman June 27, 2013 Learning to Swim Learning to swim is something every person needs to know. It can be challenging and frightening. Some are afraid of getting in the water. Swimming has many benefits: fun in the water, boating, fishing, and an excellent exercise routine. Swimming is one of the best work-out for the entire body and uses all of the major muscle groups. It improves your cardiovascular and circulatory systems. Physical Therapists use it as an exercise for knee patients. Learning to float is essential to controlling the body motions. Children master this technique easier than adults because of the fear factor. Getting comfortable in the water is the first step. Start out in the shallow end of the pool. Using slight movements, such as holding onto the edge while walking around, lowering your body into the water, and learning to hold your breath above and below the water. Doing these exercises for 3 hours (two one and a half hour sessions) will make trainees comfortable and eliminate stressful fear. The dead man’s float is easier for beginners. Relax your body; stand in waist deep water with your stomach pulled in. Stretch or elongate the neck and tuck your chin back. Take a deep breath; hold it in and lean forward, putting your face in the water while you extend your arms forward. Allow your legs to float to the surface one at a time while looking at the bottom of the pool. Stay relaxed. Being tense will not keep...

Hired to work for Monica Carrolls, Operations Supervisor, these new potential employees require training on company policy, being oriented to the organization, and screened for drugs. Carl himself is behind on their training, has not completed all the required processing, in addition to the fact that some of the employees haven’t even completed applications, nor have submitted transcripts. Orientation needs to be arranged somewhere other than the original location, due to double booking conflicts. The training material also needs to be reviewed and confirmed for the employees prior to the seminar. Mr. Robins is quickly falling behind, so he needs to formulate a plan of action, and implement it concisely. ------------------------------------------------- Background Having successful hired 15 new people in early April, Carl had plenty of time to prior to June 15th in which to organize everything, but procrastinated until it became a scramble to handle everything at once.

...CASE STUDY: THE VETERINARY PRACTICE Background. Simon Harrison has run a successful veterinary practice for many years from a large Victorian semi-detached house in a smart suburb of a large English town, about 30 miles from London. The practice caters for small animals. There are two qualified vets in Simon and his son Joe, who joined the practice a few years ago, and is now a partner. There is a senior veterinary nurse Ros, and two trainee nurses Rukia and Kath, plus Simon’s wife Anna, who, as a qualified nurse herself, plays an active role part-time. All the nursing staff have to act as receptionists too at times. There are two consulting rooms, one operating theatre /X-ray room, a drugs storeroom, a reception /office area, and a small waiting room. One problem at the current location is that vehicle parking by clients is very difficult in the busy, congested street. Simon is nearing retirement age but does not want to fully retire yet and would like to become part-time, with his son playing a larger role and the practice taking on a younger, more recently qualified vet. Joe is keen to do this but, as we will see below, has more ambitious plans, and if Simon were to agree, there are a number of aspects and activities of the practice that could be altered and improved at the same time. Even though veterinary services can be very expensive, the demand for them in the area is growing quite rapidly, as more people have pets and more people take out insurance for...

...Practice Teaching English at High School Teaching a foreign language may be one of the most challenging jobs. Many teachers receive their B.Ed. from colleges, where they get the chance to practice their teaching while studying. In particular, EFL teachers get exposed to a variety of teaching techniques which make their teaching exciting and effective. At each stage, teachers need to adopt their teaching to meet the students' needs. However, it's the most challenging when they practice teaching EFL at high school. It is an enriching experience since student teachers are exposed to different settings, acquainted with new teaching styles, and deal with teenagers. Experiencing a variety of classroom settings is one of the advantages in practicing teaching English at a high school. For example, classes in a high school are divided according to students' levels: advanced, intermediate, and weak ones, in addition to their specializations. Whereby in each level, student teachers are required to choose the suitable material that meets the students' needs, the thing that differs from other stages, in which various levels of pupils learn in one class at the same time. Besides, weak classes are also divided into classes with special learning needs, in which teachers should be more careful about students' backgrounds. These weak classes are also divided into small groups, which help teachers to focus on students' weaknesses in order to develop their English. However, strong and intermediate...

...An organization needs to have training programmes to achieve certain objectives that the company needs to progress in the direction to reach the company’s goals that it has set. The training has to be systematic so that it will be effective. The purpose of a systematic approach to training and development is to access if the training and development has met the training objectives. The other purpose is also to determine if the organization managed to get their return on investment in the training and development.

...Article Critique Training is the Answer…But What Was the Question The author’s main objective of this article is to ask the question of whether training really works or not. Mr. Rosner looks at how managers were being trained in order to develop the employees that they managed. This article also speaks about the mindset of personnel that attend training. Rosner states, in the words of Bob Pike, president of Minneapolis-based Creative Training Techniques, “Most people come to training with one of four mindsets: as a learner, a networker, a vacationer or a prisoner” (Rosner, 2009). These mindsets that people possess can make the training better or worse for the people attending it. If they come in with a learning mindset then they tend to more focused on what they are about to learn. They are more involved in the training and understand what they are there for. The networker mindset person is there for learning but they want to network with other people within the class. They are looking to make connections in order to have more connections for a later date, maybe for a better job or for something they may need in their current company. The vacationer mindset person is there to get away from everything not to learn. They want to get away from the office and enjoy their time away. The prisoner feels as if they were forced to be there and they come in mostly with a closed mind about the training they are attending. Rosner also speaks about some problems that people have within...
