Obviously your introduction bio should vary according to what group you are addressing. An introduction in front of the Securities and Exchange Commission would be different than the bio introduction used for a speaker about to give a high school commencement address, even though it is the same speaker presenting. But another consideration is how long your bio should be for a particular audience. Different audiences who are listening to you in different formats need different lengths of a bio.I was delivering a media training teleseminar recently and had emailed the bio off of my web site that is appropr

Did you know that the pooper scooper cruise are actually in the arena 20 to 50 times longer than the bull rider?So being on the back of the pooper scooper with your company logo makes a whole lot more sense than advertising in let's say the silly yellow pages, which know it uses a more. In fact yellow page advertising has declined over the past few years due to the Internet
Once you’ve been working in the international education sector for a while, you’ll soon come to realize there are international schools and then there are ‘international schools’. Some international schools are international in name only, some schools have student bodies that are populated heavily with the children of privileged, local families, so that you end up teaching in what is essentially an English Speaking School.
Teachers love to talk! In fact, one of the reasons I accepted the position I currently hold is because teachers I met at the international teaching job fair I attended recommended the school to me. I now keep a list of schools that have great reputations, and another list of schools that I know I definitely don’t want to work in. I base my list on what I’ve heard from teachers that I work with or meet at professional development events.

Laser pointers are useful when used at a business meeting to point out areas of interest on a chart or graph, and very amusing when the kitty chases them around the floor. But, innocuous as they seem, even the weakest of laser pointers can do damage if the eye is exposed to them directly for a length of time.Visual disturbances and sometimes damage of the retina or cornea can develop from exposure to a laser pointer. Though it may seem silly, eye protection may be necessary to avoid injuries that arise from exposure to laser pointers. There is nothing funny about loss of vision caused by ‘playing’

Most people follow their uplines so-called advice and have absolutely nothing to show for it. Chances are great that you are one of them! Sure they may give you a temporary high by repeating some motivational quote he read in some success book, but how motivated are you REALLY when you have no money to show for it?You probably feel that there is something wrong with you and that you are not trying hard enough to talk to enough prospects. But have you looked at it in another perspective?I know you have listened to all those tapes that your upline shove down your throat, but have you considered t

Paper shredders are machines that allow the shredding of any paper to tiny pieces or very fine strips. Paper shredders are commonly used by individuals or groups that need to destroy classified documents that may prove to be of danger to themselves or to their group. These documents are cut into tiny pieces so that no one attempting to read them will succeed in doing so. Experts in the field of privacy will often advise individuals to destroy some of their personal documents like account statements, bills or other important files that cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of anyone.1.

Once you have identified which schools will suit your needs by talking to colleagues, peers and doing some research, you’ll need a strategy for landing a great teaching position with them.
First Contact Plus
I have dubbed this strategy ‘First Contact Plus’ because the first contact you make with a school you want to work for may not result in employment being offered. The key to this strategy is persistence and making yourself known.
This strategy comes into its own when you do not have a fixed time-frame in which you need to see results. It might take years for this strategy to pay off. I know of one colleague who has been using this strategy to woo a particularly desirable school for several years, and only this year have there been any real rewards.
How does the strategy work? Well, it starts by you sending your application pack to the recruiter in question when the recruiting season starts. Do not wait for your desired school to post vacancies.
