The Best Tip for Traveling to Spain Isnt What Youd Expect

The Best Tip for Traveling to Spain Isnt What Youd Expect Suzy S. Planning a trip to Spain? Theres so much to explore and see! And if youre on a budget, you can still have an amazing experience. Learn more in this guest post by Carmichael, CA Spanish tutor  Joan B... Are you planning a trip to Spain? Whether you want to cross the must-see destinations off your bucket list, or get off the beaten path and check out some of the hidden gems in Spain, there is so much to explore. Moreover, there are tons of websites out there devoted to offering tips, hacks, and recommendations for making the most of your trip and sticking to your budget. But outside of doing your due diligence to find the cheapest (yet still reputable) hotels, do you know the simplest travel hack of all? This one thing can help you save money in Spain, while helping you have the best experience possible. That trick? Actually learning Spanish!  While you can certainly get by finding tour guides and translators who speak English, a lot can be said for learning the language of the locals. Keep reading to learn all the ways that Spanish will enhance your experience and help you save money in Spain. 1. Impress the Locals Spaniards are fiercely proud of their language, and showing them that you have an appreciation for the Spanish language and have worked to communicate with them in their mother tongue can make a huge difference. Whether its the local shopkeeper who throws in some extra goodies, the owner of a bed and breakfast who gives you a discount, or any other local merchant, you will find that simply by speaking Spanish, others are more likely to be helpful and give you a better deal. 2. Make New Friends When you can converse socially and make someone feel comfortable speaking to you in their language, you can develop long-lasting and meaningful friendships.  Building friendships with locals is one of the best travel tips for Spain, because it will allow you to experience a side of the country you might not otherwise see. They can recommend local places, set you up to stay with friends, and more. With this unparalleled cultural experience, you can save money at the same time! 3. Avoid Confusion at the Register When youre traveling, lots of transactions are made, big and small. Speaking Spanish is very useful in this case because not every clerk and merchant you encounter will speak English. And even if they do, confusion can still occur. Speaking Spanish will save you money because in addition to giving you the ability to read sign descriptions and prices, it will allow you to clear up potential confusion and make sure youre paying the actual price instead of an inflated one for tourists. A common place where this is useful is at the train station. Not every clerk speaks English, so speaking Spanish will ensure that you buy a ticket at the correct price, with the correct departure time and destination. An incorrect ticket can result in lost time and additional fees. SEE ALSO: The Most Common Spanish Phrases for Tourists 4. Stay on the Right Path Another thing that happens often when traveling is that you may rely on the advice and suggestions of people in the street, whether its asking for directions or a suggestion for a cafe or restaurant. Whom you meet often determines where you go, and subsequently, how much you pay. Speaking Spanish ensures that locals can lead you away from overpriced tourist traps, and instead point you in the direction of cafes and restaurants that are frequented by locals. In addition, the act of conversing in Spanish instead of English means that the locals you encounter might be less likely to think of you as a typical tourist and recommend more authentic (and probably better-priced) options. 5. Bargain for a Great Price Bargaining is another area where speaking the native language will come in handy if youre visiting Spain on a budget. If you want to go to places like El Rastro in Madrid (a giant flea market) to pick up souvenirs and gifts, speaking Spanish will allow you to be a more compelling and effective bargainer. You will be taken more seriously and the merchants are  more likely to give you the price you want! Lodging is another point in traveling where cost matters. A common choice in Spain is a pension, a type of local and independent bed and breakfast. Because these are often run by a single person or a couple, you have a chance to interact with the owner. Speaking Spanish will quite possibly net you a lower price in addition to creating a stronger relationship with the person, which could lead to more individualized and customized recommendations for things to do and places to go. Additional Travel Tips for Spain Looking for more travel tips? We recommend checking out these guides: Nomadic Matts Spain Travel Guide Rick Steves Guide to Spain Travel + Leisures Spain Travel Guide Its clear that there are endless ways to save money in Spain by learning Spanish. Many of the problems that come along with being a tourist, such as price inflation, occur because of a lack of savviness. Speaking Spanish will make you a more informed and capable traveler, and it will be obvious to those with whom you interact, as well. So get started today!

Should I Go to Drexel University

Should I Go to Drexel University Emily earned her bachelors degree in psychology from Drexel University. She specializes in English tutoring, biology tutoring, and a number of other subjects. Below, she shares her experience at Drexel University. Describe the campus setting and transportation options. Emily: Drexel University is situated in the heart of Philadelphia. The campus and the city are very walkable, and public transportation is accessible and easy to use. Campus security has a strong presence at the university, and because Drexel sits right next to the University of Pennsylvania, students seem to feel safe. Like at many urban campuses, however, street smarts are emphasized and helpful safety tips are taught during freshman orientation. Since the city and campus are so walkable and public transportation is very easy to navigate, a car is not necessary and a bike is optional. How available are the professors, academic advisers, and teaching assistants? Emily:I can mostly speak from the perspective of the psychology and anatomy departments, but for me, professors were readily available during their office hours or by appointment. I found them eager to answer questions and help any student who needed extra assistance. Teaching assistants were typically seen at the introductory course level and were, more often than not, seniors who had done well in the course and enjoyed teaching. This makes for a nice intermingling of students from different years. The teaching assistants tend to act as mentors to the younger students and are quick with advice. How would you describe the dorm life rooms, dining options, location, socialization opportunities with other students? Emily:The dorm rooms, especially within the freshman dorms, are typical of an urban college campus. The rooms are small and are typically two-person rooms. Each person has a desk, bed, wardrobe, and dresser. Since Drexel is an urban campus, dining options are extremely varied if one is willing to venture off campus. On campus, there is a dining hall, restaurants, and coffee shops. Many clubs are very active at Drexel and bring students together. Many students also tend to meet in their freshman dorm and in classes. Which majors/programs are best represented and supported? Emily:Drexel is very well known for their engineering, computer science, business, and health sciences programs. I chose to major in psychology. I also took a number of anatomy and physiology courses with the nursing students during my four years at Drexel. I found the psychology department to be warm and welcoming and very willing to get to know its students individually. I was unsure as to what I wanted to do long-term; as such, psychology opened many doors for me and left me flexible to take a number of different paths. I ended up taking a health professions path and made this decision during the spring of my sophomore year. How easy or difficult was it for you to meet people and make friends as a freshman? Does Greek life play a significant role in the campus social life? Emily:I found the freshman dorms and my classes to be the place that I initially made friends. It was relatively easy for me to make friends, as everyone was in the same boat freshman year. After freshman year, I met people through classes and clubs. Greek life does not play a very significant role at Drexel. I didnt join Greek life and didnt feel like I was missing out. How helpful are the Career Centerand other student support services? Emily:The career center is extremely helpful and very present on campus. Drexel is famous for its co-operative education program. Co-ops are essentially six-month-long internships that allow students real-world, paid, job experience before they graduate. Students can choose from either a four year, one co-op option or a five year three co-op option as their plan of study. Many well-known companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Johnson Johnson, Merrill Lynch, and Childrens Hospital of Philadelphia recruit for co-ops on campus. Drexel has a very high post-college hiring rate due to the co-op program. Some students choose to leave the Philadelphia area for one or more of their co-ops. There are also many international co-op opportunities available. How are the various study areas such aslibraries, the student union, and dorm lounges? Emily:The student center is typically used for club meetings and performances. The honors lounge is also housed in the student center, and many students in Drexels Pennoni Honors College make good use of the space. The library is small for the number of students who are typically there. During exam times, it feels cramped. Drexel has been building new study spaces over the past couple of years. Students who live in the dorms tend to use their dorms common room to study in groups. Describe the surrounding town. Emily:Drexel students tend to really explore the city of Philadelphia. Many students spend their off-time enjoying the city and getting involved in volunteer projects and programs. There is always something to do downtown, and the hustle of city life means that things never get boring. From festivals to parades to sporting events, there is always something to do on or off campus. How big or small is the student body? Were you generally pleased or displeased with the typical class sizes? Emily:The undergraduate population is about 15,000 students. It is a good size, such that I continued to meet people well into my senior year, but small enough that I saw many friends walking around campus on a daily basis. The typical class size (except for introductory classes) is about 30 students. Many of my courses within the psychology department were much smaller than that, with the average class size around 15 students. I really enjoyed this small-class feel and it catered very much to my learning style. Describe one memorable experience with a professor and/or class. Perhaps one you loved the most or one youregretthe most. Emily:I have never been a math person. I have always struggled with numbers, and may or may not still use my fingers at times when asked to perform mental math without paper and a pencil handy. That being said, when I began a statistics course during my sophomore year at Drexel, my hopes were not high regarding my success. I am here to say that I was very wrong with my initial thoughts about the course. I had a fantastic professor who was finishing up her PhD in psychology and statistics. She broke down the material so that every concept was like learning a baking recipe. If I followed her clearly defined steps, I would come up with correct answers every time! Over the next two years I took higher level courses that she taught, and loved them. Who knew that I would come to really enjoy statistics? I sure had no idea!

Examples of Linear Equations

Examples of Linear Equations Linear equation is basically defined the linear characteristic of the function in this case the function varies linearly. Examples of linear equation are given below:- Y = x + 4 Y = x Y = 3 x The above defined examples are one of the suitable examples of linear equation. These examples can also be defined by the graphical representation. In short, linear equation helps us to understand the graph of linearly function. Generally linear equation are of two types, one type is linear equation in one variable other is linear equation in two variables. This can be clear by following examples. Question 1:- Find the value of x if 3x + 4 is equal to 10 Solution 1:- Given, 3x + 4 = 10 Firstly we need to subtract 4 from both sides 3x + 4 -4 = 10 4 3x = 6 Now to find out value of x, divide both sides by 3 3x/3 = 6/3 So x = 2 Question 2:-Find the value of x if 4x + 6 is equal to 10 + 2x Solution 2:- Given, 4x + 6 = 10 +2x So 4x 2x +6 is equal to 10 2x + 6 = 10 Firstly we need to subtract 6 from both sides 2x + 6 - 6 = 10 6 2x = 4 Now to find out value of x, divide both sides by 2 2x/2 = 4/2 So x = 2

What is it Like to Attend Rice University

What is it Like to Attend Rice University The tutors behind Varsity Tutors are not just here to teach theyre sharing their college experiences as well. Michelle is a Houston-based tutor and a senior at Rice University. She is a History major with a minor in Poverty, Justice, and Human Capabilities. Michelle specializes in many subjects including ACT prep tutoring, SAT prep tutoring, and Spanish tutoring. Check out her review of Rice: VT: How easy or difficult is it to get around on your campus? Is it hilly, do lots of people bike, are there buses, etc. Michelle: It is really easy to get around on my campus. It isnt hilly, and were a small school, so it is only a fifteen-minute walk across the whole campus. Many people bike around campus. There is also a shuttle service that goes around the whole campus every few minutes. VT: How helpful are the academic advisors? Michelle: The Office of Academic Advising is great here at Rice. Since we are a small school, it is really easy to get an appointment. During Rices orientation week, about half of the time is dedicated to academic advising and registration, making sure that everyone is comfortable with his or her schedule before the first week of classes starts. VT: How would you describe the dorm life? Michelle: The social life on campus is oriented around the dorms. We have eleven dorms that we call residential colleges. These are similar to the houses in Harry Potter. We live there, eat there, and many social events are held there. We also compete against the other colleges in friendly campus wide competitions. All of the colleges host a party at their dorm each semester. Because of the campus culture and social life, many people want to live in the dorms all four years. VT: Which majors/programs are best represented and supported? Michelle: Rice has a reputation as a science and engineering school, but we also have a lot of great programs in humanities and social science. I am a history major and have gotten a lot of support from the humanities school. Rice has a disproportionately large number of pre-med students. VT: How easy or difficult was it for you to meet people and make friends as a freshman? Michelle: It was so easy to make friends as a freshman. Rice has an orientation week that is a big deal. Students have an entire week to meet their roommates, their orientation week group, as well as some upperclassman the week before classes start. The residential college system also makes it very easy to make friends. VT: How helpful is the Career Center? Michelle: The Center for Career Development is also very helpful. They set up on-campus interviews for seniors, but they will also meet you and help you starting your freshman year. I have gotten help there on my resume, which was great. VT: How are the various study areas? Libraries? The Student Union? Dorm lounges? Michelle: The dorms have a lot of good study areas. Fondren Library has six floors to study on. The Student Union is small, but thats not too big of a problem since there are always classrooms around campus that are open. VT: What is the surrounding town like? What are the best local attractions that make it unique? Michelle: Houston is an amazing place to live as a college student. It is such a big city, which is great because there is so much opportunity. There are a ton of restaurants and shopping right near campus. The campus is also located in the museum District/Medical Center area. There is so much culture, and the hospitals are great for internships. Lots of concerts and other events come to Houston. The job market here in Houston is one of the best in the country. This is great for summer internships and employment after graduation, especially considering the stellar reputation that Rice students have in Houston. VT: How big or small is the student body and how does that affect your experience? Michelle: The student body is about 3,500 undergraduates. This is a really good size. It is big enough that there are a lot of resources and opportunities here, but small enough that individual students can really take advantage of all of the opportunities. VT: Describe one memorable experience with a professor and/or class. Perhaps one you loved the most or one you dreaded the most. Michelle: I took an English class that was workshop based. We wrote personal essays about our life experiences. In the process we became very close as a class. I became a better writer, and I bonded with my professor and the other students in the class.

Three Tips for GMAT Sentence Correction Comparison Questions

Three Tips for GMAT Sentence Correction Comparison Questions GMAT MBA Admissions Blog GMAT sentence correction questions are part of the verbal section of the GMAT. As you probably know, with these questions, you are presented with a sentence, part or all of which is underlined. There are five answer choice options, and each one is a different way to replace the underlined part. The first answer is always the same as the underlined portion, but next four are different. You must pick the answer choice which reflects the best way to complete the sentence. GMAT sentence questions test your ability to use the English language accurately, effectively, and as concisely as possible. We previously wrote a blog article that covers eight major concepts that are often tested on in GMAT sentence correction questions. One of those concepts concerns how to appropriately use and write about comparisons. Navigating through questions about comparisons are likely to be a major element of your journey through the GMAT sentence correction section. The video above offers a simple approach to effectively managing comparison questions. It recommends the following steps: Set up your scratch pad with the answer choices for process of elimination purposes Draw a line where you’ll articulate the issue within the sentence as written Read the sentence with an eye towards articulating the issue within the sentence as written (in this case, the issue is an odd or illogical comparison, which is why we call this a comparison question) Note â€" steps 1-3 apply to all GMAT sentence correction questions, while 4-7 are specific to “comparison” questions. By identifying key phrases, in this case “unlike,” underline what is being compared, as well as what it’s being compared to. Determine whether the current comparison makes sense? Can you compare the two things or not? Go through each remaining answer choice, without focusing on the sentence in its entirety, and just consider whether the answer choices compare things that can in fact be compared. If not, eliminate that answer (the trick is to just focus on the two things being compared in the text as written) Once you have vectored in on an answer that compares two things appropriately, sub in the new underlined information into the sentence and re-read it to check for overall flow and meaning, just to ensure you didn’t miss something.
