I have gone in deep understanding while I have read different articles on the Net. As an international student I have found Goggle and other Net search engines as the best tool to success in my classes. If I have the hard time understanding different words or articles from my classes I have the online friends of Ask.com to help me out and millions of articles to gain a deeper understanding.

The student that has a calculator always keeps it on top of his table, and the paraprofessional is constantly reminding him to use it. The students who have answers recorder sit at the same table; they are also next to a computer station where they can type their responses and print them out.

She makes it her mission to help them and maybe help them finds way to overcome the scars that they have. Castellanos explains, “ I teach in a totally non-traditional way. I use every trick in the books: lots of positive reinforcement, both oral and written; lots of one-on-one conferences. I network women with each other, refer them to professor friends who can help them; connect them to graduate students and/or former students who are already pursuing careers” (pg 348).
I love helping my kids with their homework. While helping them with their homework there is a lot of things that I learn that I never knew.
