The Advantage of English in the Work Place
The Advantage of English in the Work Place
By: Janice Nonato
Ragay
How
important is English in our daily lives? Well, as we all know, English language
is very useful in our daily conversation, giving instructions, and even in job interviews.
If you have less skill in English, you will find it hard to look for a job and be
career competitive in the modern world we are now living. English serves as a
second language around the world for non-native English speakers. It helps us
understand and conquer the challenges that we encounter every day. If you are proficient
in English, you would absolutely be ready to attain the highest quality of life
and get your desires. English is definitely important nowadays because all companies
in different industries require applicants and even employees to be literate in
English. For example, in a call center, all employees should have fluency in
speaking, writing and following instructions in English. A teacher should also
have better skill in English in all aspects, since English is used as their methods
of instruction. All subjects or courses that we study in school are being
taught in English. Fast-food employees are also required to speak in English in
serving their customers. Secretaries of different companies are also required
to set an appointment, send reports, and answer phone calls in English. English
also helps in connecting different people of various races
to understand each other. See the advantages of the English language in our
journey in life? You must do your part now if you think you are not good in
English. Study, practice and use English as your second language. It can be a
great help for you.

Toe Rings - Fashionista
"If you think that your jewelries are not enough to cover the entirety of your physical self then a toe ring should be added to your jewelries. It's intended to adorn and bring attention to that tiny little thing in you, which could instead be decently covered with a shoe but due to the fashionistic way of displaying your body you need to polish every inch of it." - by Janice Nonato Ragay

Decision-Making Tips for Parents on Children Attending College
Written by: Janice
Nonato Ragay
Parents play an important role in
their children’s education. They are the persons who take responsibilities and
they are also concern on whatever problems and situations their children might
encounter. They should be aware of their children’s needs and what would be the
best thing they can do to make their children feel comfortable in their college
life. Every parent needs to consider
things that could possibly happen to their children especially if their
children are away from home. So parents should be careful and should plan every
decision they have to make.
The first thing that a parent
should do is to check on what university
or school they are going to send their children and know what will be the field
of study they are planning to take up. Be the first to know the information
about the future environment of their children’s journey for four or more years.
Parents should always bear in mind that when their children are starting to
enter a university, they are getting into the age of legality where more
personal issues and concerns or even making decisions for themselves are taking
part without the presence of their parents. Talk to your sons and daughters.
Discuss with them some sensitive issues like sex, money, pregnancy, party,
drugs, drinking, smoking, etc. These are uncomfortable to talk about, but be
natural! It is going to be awkward, but let them face the reality. You can help
them realize to do what is right and avoid the consequences if they are
planning to do one of these things. Next, make a plan and let them know. Decide
how often are you going to communicate with them while they are away from home,
when are you going to visit, and when will they come home. Give them freedom,
but let them know their limitations without suffocating them. Always give them
advice. They still need you. Whenever your child will encounter problems while
they are away and you received phone calls about it, try to ask a couple of
questions and let them explain why it happened. I believe parents want to
rescue their children and they can solve the issue, but
if you think they can solve it by themselves, let them find the resolution. Don't be so quick to fix the problem yourself. Teach your student how to get out and fix the
problem by himself or herself. This is your time to move on and treat them like
adults. But it does not mean you can now stop from being a parent to them.
Always listen to them and be a shoulder for your children to lean on whenever
they feel like they can no longer carry the stressful path of their journey in
college life. Be a friend, be a comforter and above all be the first to reach them
out. A parent will always be a parent.
In Choosing the Right Major
Written by: Janice
Nonato Ragay
When you were in high school, you
were so excited to be in college and wanted to experience college life. You
were always imagining how exciting and challenging your life would be. College
life is not as easy as what you think and definitely not a joke, so you have to
keep everything planned and certain.
First, think of what aspect you are
good at, what subject in high school do you excel, and what do you want to do
in your future life? Choose a profession that you want to be. It will help you
decide what field of study you are going to obtain. Always consider things that
interest you the most. Also ponder the factors that are part of the journey
that you want to pursue. Select a major that interests you the most and can
provide the information and training that you can use in the future. Financial
aspects, family, and environment can also be a great factor in this matter. It
is good to study if everything goes smoothly with your resources and your
emotional and physical wellbeing. In choosing your major, try to answer these
questions; “Why are you interested on this particular field or major? Will you
really have the chance to succeed if you are going to choose this major?”
Analysing these kind of questions make you think deeper and do careful steps in
choosing your major since a lot of factors will be affected if you fail to
decide for the best.
If you think you already chose a
major that you are going to study to build your career, be confident and be certain
on the next step that you have to undergo. Be the best and answer the interviewer
with full of guts and be knowledgeable in answering the questions that are
being thrown at you as part of your admission examination in the University
that you want to enrol. Always remember that the major you have chosen is
really the desire of your heart, not just because your parents wanted you to
choose. This is just your first step in a challenging path that your about to
travel in developing the foundation of the kind of life will you have in the
near future. The main challenge is when you pursue knowledge on the field of
study that you chose and also in discovering important things and ideas on the
said scope. It is necessary that you study not just because you want to gain
something but instead accepting and embracing the future career that you are
going to build out of the major that you have chosen. Apply every single thing
and idea that you have learned in your everyday life so that you will be able
to use it when the right time comes.
