Little Big Steps is an app to help you achieve your goals by becoming more consistent. It helps you be more consistent by asking you to mark yourself out of 10 each day for effort – for any goal.
Your goal may be to get fit, eat better or start a businesss. Your aim in life may be to stop procrastinating or stop drinking.
A lot of people have big goals but are inconsistent. They need help with becoming consistent and making effort easier; by gradually increasing it at a sustainable pace.
Inconsistency vs Consistency
If you stop waiting for perfection and start rewarding yourself for consistent, imperfect steps, you can quickly see how those little steps add up to achieving your goals in life.
If your goal is to learn more, one chapter a day of a book is dozens of books a year. If your goal in life is to get fit, 10 minutes of exercise a day is 61 hours of exercise a year.
Stop waiting for an imaginary perfect day and start counting the imperfect, consistent steps towards your goals.
Do you have too many zero days?
Would your last month of effort look like this?
Did you get a burst of enthusiasm, have a few good days then slip back into bad habits? Consistency would have been better than enthusiasm.
Did you aim too high then tell yourself you’ll start tomorrow instead? Consistency would have been better than aiming too high.
Did you keep telling yourself “I’ll start on Monday”? Consistency would have been better than waiting.
Was this one of many inconsistent months?
Aim for one step a day – no more zero days!
Don’t let perfect be the enemy of progress.
It’s not perfect but it’s consistent. We’d like to have no zero days but we know they happen.
When we do have a zero day, we pick ourselves back up and start the next day. We don’t wait for Monday and create another row of reds.
The way zero days quickly add up is noticeable. It’s harder to ignore time passing by and life goals going unachieved when it’s laid out infront of you.
Even if we only take 1 step a day, it’s noticeable how quickly we can achieve our goals even if we walk rather than run towards them. It’s better than standing still.
Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not who someone else is today.
Be consistent by focussing on your idea of success, not someone else’s
To be consistent you need to ensure some effort occurs each day. To do this, you only have to answer the question “How did I do today?” each day. No more zero days!
To make this as quick and easy as possible..
No login screen. The app opens straight to your home screen.
You open the app and can immediately score your goals out of 10 for today.
You open the app and can immediately see how well you’re doing today and whether you could try harder.
The steps charts show how well your goals are going this week. Have you taken a big or little step each day? It all counts.
The home screen focuses on today. As should you.
Separate consistency and effort.
Effort will be easier to increase once a consistent habit is formed.
Consistency
To improve consistency you can challenge yourself with ‘no zero day streaks’.
How long can you go without having a zero day for a specific goal?
How long can you go without having a zero day for any goal?
Effort
To improve effort you will be given a target score for your goals each day, as well as for your overall effort.
The app knows if you typically try less on a Friday and will give achievable targets for that day.
It’s fine if you don’t hit the targets. They adjust if you’re not ready.
Let the app handle the calculations and aim to fill those green progress circles!
No more zero months!
Visualise your long-term progress
The stats feature lets you see your goals ranked by effort and consistency. Are you doing really well at learning but less at exercising?
The answer may be expected. It lets you check your historic effort matches your life priorities.
You can see which goals you put the most effort into as well as which you’re most consistent with, letting you think about what exactly needs improving to achieve each life goal.
You can also view progress by day of the week. Do you consistently make less effort on weekends? Do you need to change this to achieve your life goals?
Do you find effort mostly happens on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, then declines on the weekend and stops on Monday?
Seeing your effort laid out by days of the week helps you consider what else in your schedule may be impacting your progress.
To start tracking your non zero days and beyond, take the first step in the right direction:

A small step of one person
Space technology
This image is one of the most famous photographs of the 20th century. It was made on the Moon exactly 50 years ago, on July 21, 1969. It depicts astronaut Edwin Aldrin (Edwin Aldrin). If you look closely, you can see the reflection of Neil Armstrong in Aldrin’s helmet, the first person in history to set foot on the surface of our planet’s satellite.

The Apollo 11 Lunar Module landed in the southwestern part of the Sea of Tranquility on July 20, 1969. After checking all systems and completing the pre-launch simulation procedure, the Control Center allowed the crew to proceed to the surface.
Neil Armstrong walked on the moon at 2:56:15 UT on July 21, 1969. At that moment, he uttered his historic phrase:
“That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.”
The Apollo 11 crew walk was broadcast live in most countries of the world. According to rough estimates, it was followed by 530 million people – about 20% of the total population of the Earth at that time.
19 minutes after Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin also left the LM. In total, the astronauts’ exit to the surface lasted 2 hours and 31 minutes. During this time, they installed an American flag, a memorial plaque, a set of commemorative medals dedicated to the fallen space explorers (including Gagarin and Komarov), as well as a set of scientific equipment consisting of a seismometer and a corner reflector at the landing site. The astronauts also collected 21.5 kg of lunar rock samples.

The maximum crew distance from the lunar module was 59 m. At the end of the surface landing, Armstrong took a walk to the edge of the 30-meter crater “Little West” (Little West). Such a modest distance was due to the engineers’ fears that the spacesuit cooling systems might not withstand high temperatures (the Sun had risen quite high by that time and significantly heated the surface rocks). Therefore, NASA wanted to be able to abort the exit at any time and return the crew to the lunar module.

At 21 hours and 36 minutes after landing, the Apollo 11 Lunar Module took off and docked with the command module carrying the astronaut Michael Collins. Armstrong and Aldrin joined him in the descent vehicle. On July 22, after undocking the takeoff stage, the spacecraft began its return course to Earth. The capsule with the crew successfully splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on July 24, 1969 years old.
It is worth noting that the small flags of 135 UN member countries were also on board the lunar module. They were returned to Earth and, after the completion of the mission, were handed over to representatives of the respective countries. The Soviet flag that landed on the moon is now on display at the Memorial Museum of Cosmonautics in Moscow.
Apollo History
Neil Armstrong quote: It’s one small step for a man, but a giant leap for…
— Neil Armstrong
Add note
That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.
Words said when Armstrong first stepped onto the Moon (20 July 1969) One Small Step, transcript of Apollo 11 Moon landing https://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a11.step.html. In the actual sound recordings he apparently fails to say “a” before “man” and says: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” This was generally considered by many to simply be an error of omission on his part. Armstrong long insisted he did say “a man” but that it was inaudible. Prior to new evidence supporting his claim, he stated a preference for the “a” to appear in parentheses when the quote is written. The debate continues on the matter, as “Armstrong’s ‘poetic’ slip on Moon” at BBC News (3 June 2009) http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8081817.stm reports that more recent analysis by linguist John Olsson and author Chris Riley with higher quality recordings indicates that he did not say “a” . Variant: That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING
“Our boys have been attending Westpark Montessori since they were 2 years old, and we cannot imagine where we would be without this community. Westpark Montessori and now Village Montessori for our oldest son, have continued to create an environment that challenges and encourages our boys in ways beyond what we knew how to. The focus is on the child and that is witnessed in many ways other than just following the Montessori method including: the low student to staff ratio, the biannual assessments for each child in their developmental journey, and at the end of the school year, the teachers gift each family a beautiful memory book of the child’s journey including pictures of the child, their art- all personalized for each child. This school has surpassed our expectations and the staff has become part of our family. The teachers, the assistants, the Directors and the owners truly care about the children and know how important of a role each conversation, each lesson, and each smile makes in our children’s lives. Our family is forever grateful that we found a home with the Westpark and Village branch of Montessori Schools of Irvine.”
Brandon and Keisha Hay
“For the past five years, I have had both of my boys attending the Montessori Schools of Irvine program. We have been fortunate to attend the University, Westpark and Village campuses. Every educator we have interacted with at the Montessori Schools of Irvine family has been amazing. You can tell this by the way your child is greeted each day with a warm smile and small chit chat as they arrive at school. Every teacher knows your child, as they have the opportunity to interact with them during the school day, after school play, nap times, early morning circles or playtime in the atrium. Each hand-selected teacher by the Director Ms. Cheryll truly has your child’s best interest at heart.
The curriculum and methodology that is used at each grade level is superior to none. You will value each of the lessons and jobs your child has the opportunity to work with as they progress through the program. Each task they perform has multi-levels of learning. Each week your child will come home with stacks of paper they have worked on during the school day. As you look over their work; your child will guide you through their day at school. Your child will become an independent learner and will gauge problem-solving. They say “it takes a village to raise a child,” Montessori Schools of Irvine is that village.”
Kevin Akash
“My daughter started University Montessori when she was four months old; now she is in the third grade at Village Montessori. The Montessori Schools of Irvine have provided a nourishing, loving yet extremely stimulating academic environment. The teachers are excellent. Through their experience, passion, and enthusiasm they make their students super excited about learning and self-motivated. Each child learns at her/his own pace enabling each student to reach a full potential. The students excel in science, language, and art. Very importantly, the children are taught kindness, respect to others and nature, and responsibility. My daughter is always excited to go to school, to learn, work with teachers, and meet her friends. Throughout the years we have appreciated the School tremendously; we could not have chosen a better school for our daughter.”
Zuzanna & Raymond Slonena (Zofia (9))
“My children LOVE this school – from the passionate teachers to the amazing friendships they have fostered. Montessori Schools of Irvine provides a curriculum that integrates high teaching standards and develops the child’s passion for lifelong learning. We love this school so much that despite living in Irvine, we are continuing with the elementary program because they understand that it is more than traditional academics. Montessori Schools of Irvine develops the “whole” child from practical life skills to executive functioning. We could not be happier with the teachers and leadership here at Montessori Schools of Irvine.”
Karin and Tim Koch (Savannah (8) and Victoria (3))
“Village Montessori of Irvine is an incredible school that provided both of our boys with a strong foundation academically as well as socially. All the staff in Village is top notch educationally and have many years of experience in their field. The teachers are very patient and nice but exercise right amount of boundaries to teach kids respect and good manners. All the teachers we have had pleasure to have over the years have been very responsive and accommodating towards our additional needs for our boys, which I very much appreciate as a mom. The school’s executive staff has been very transparent in their communication to the parents about all challenges this past year has brought. I like that we get weekly/monthly updates on all the latest developments and about everything that is going on in classes (holidays, celebrations, school updates, etc.). Also, my husband and I really love the school’s curriculum and the style of teaching. My boys go at their own pace in learning something new every day and master the necessary skills. I also appreciate the fact that they have their own chef who puts together a great variety of meals that are healthy and plentiful for the growing kiddos. Overall, I have nothing but positive feelings and thoughts about Village Montessori. We love this school and what it has given our family. Thank you for all you do!!! We really appreciate you!”
Tanya & Tony San Miguel (Andrew (6) and Evan(3)
“From the Infant Room through Kindergarten, UMS creates a nurturing environment tailored to each child, academically, socially, emotionally, and culturally. Our child has thrived at UMS, developing a love and appreciation for math, science, art, and music, devouring books several grade levels up, mastering daily life skills, learning about other cultures and places, and making lifelong friends – all before completing Kindergarten! When you ask our child what her favorite activity is she will excitedly say, “School!” It’s all thanks to UMS and we couldn’t be happier to be part of this family. “
Carolyn
“The Montessori Schools of Irvine are not just a group of schools, but a community. The Director and Founders have made it their purpose to not only support the Montessori mission, but to create an environment that also supports and engages the UCI community. As a UCI staff member and a mom, it has been such a pleasure leaving my child in an environment with people that care about more than just a developmental checklist but works with the community to create and develop initiatives that provide our children with a pathway to success.”
Charlene
“The Montessori Schools of Irvine are a local treasure. Richard and Cheryll have elevated the Montessori mission and created an educational sanctuary for our child to not only learn but thrive. The teachers care for our daughter as if she were their own and have been the best partners in cultivating her development. “
Charlene and Marek
“We joined Northwood Montessori in the midst of the pandemic and everyone here has been so supportive through all of our fears and concerns. First of all, they have safety nailed down to an art here! All of the staff and children (above 2) wear masks, they sanitize and clean the classrooms daily, practice social distancing and are completely transparent in the way they operate. My son is 5 and is in Ms. Lily’s classroom and has just blossomed into loving school. He is always happy to go to school and loves that he can pick which activities he wants to do. He loves to write, paint and has even started to read. The main thing I wanted for my son is to have a love for learning and Northwood Montessori has provided the perfect platform for that. I am so grateful that the teachers take the time to foster that love of learning and curiosity for each and every child. Despite the current situation, the teachers and staff and Northwood Montessori have done a fantastic job at keeping my son happy, healthy and engaged. They go above and beyond every day!”
Amisha
Our family has been part of the Irvine Montessori School system for the past four years. With Ms. Pennee’s leadership there is no other school I would recommend than this one. Ms. Cheryl and Mr. Richard hand select some of the finest teachers for their schools. Many of the teachers in the Irvine Montessori family have been there for years. This speaks volumes for the leadership of the Directors at each school and for the way Ms. Cheryll and Mr. Richard treat them. Each week I have witnessed all the head teachers getting together in Ms. Pennee’s office for a staff meeting. As a parent it makes me feel good, they are collaborating their efforts to better my child’s education. When you walk through school there is a sense of calmness and my child feels they are at home. All the teachers truly love your child. It’s the way they talk to them, know them by name, giving them hugs, cheer them on when they excel and most importantly make them feel welcome. If you are looking for a place your child will flourish, then this is the place!
Kevin Akash
My son has been attending Westpark Montessori for a year now. The teachers are very effective with the children and there is no chaos when you walk into a classroom like some of the other preschools I have visited and research. My son loves going to school everyday and has made great progress in the one year he’s been there.

Here is an example of a good answer to this question – I believe I am the right person for this job on the basis of my previous experience. I have observed how Bank of America provides services, and I have been impressed with the operations which is why I would love to work with Bank of America. Being a customer of Bank of America, I would really like to be a part of this growing team and contribute as much as possible along the way.
3 What can you tell us about Bank of America?
Ans. An interviewer asks this question with the goal of understanding how prepared you are for the interview. Along with that, it will also reflect your interest in their company. Here are some of the facts that you must know about BoA (Bank of America).
Their headquarters are located in Charlotte, North Carolina.
It is one of the first banks in America that initiated the credit card program – BankAmericard (now known as Visa).
Merrill Lynch was acquired by Bank of America in 2008.
In total, there are 4700 retail financial centers & around 16,000 ATMs of Bank of America.
These are a few things that you are supposed to know about the Bank of America.
Good Answer –
Bank of America is one of the most reputable and prestigious banks of the United States of America. It is, in fact, one of the banks that are recognized all around the world for their online banking services. Besides that, BoA is also famous for providing extraordinary customer service. From what information I have gathered, I believe that Bank of America has a welcoming work culture. The more I read about the bank, the more impressed I get.
4 Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
Ans. This is also one of the very common questions that are asked during interviews. This is the question that lets the interviewers sneak a peek in your head understanding how serious you are with your career. Considering this, you need to make sure that you state clearly your interest in the banking line. The best way to prepare for this question is to go to their career page and find out the high-level post and state that you want to see yourself in that position in 5 years.
Good Answer –
I would like to be working with your bank in a managerial position in five years. That is what my plan is. I will love to start the career from the present job role and would learn all the way up the ladder. Apart from this, I am also dedicated to working hard for the ambition I have. I understand how hard this journey will be, but I believe I am capable of handling it.
5 What is your greatest weakness?
Ans. While this is one of the frequently asked interview questions, this is one of the trickiest ones for most of the candidates. This is the question where interviewers tend to find out what kind of personality you have. Nobody is perfect and therefore, you must have an answer to this question. While answering this question, you need to make sure that you focus on the weaknesses that have nothing to do with the job you are applying for.
6 How will you deal with an irritated customer?
Ans. In our experience, this is the most essential question that has to be answered very carefully. It is one of those questions where the interviewer is actually trying to make a decision on whether you are a fit for the job or not. Here, your past experience will come in handy. You should mention any situation in your past when you had to deal with an irritated customer.
Good Answer –
When dealing with an irritated customer, I would follow these steps:
Listen to the customer – This will help them vent out
Show them that you care about their problem.
Never blame anyone – It is neither the customer’s fault nor the company’s. Make sure you convey that to the interviewer.
Try to find out the solution to the problem or issue that the customer is facing.
Never make any false promises.
Never take it personally.
7 What is your greatest strength?
Ans. Again this is one of the obvious questions yet candidates fail to answer it properly. This is the question that is designed to understand the traits of your personality. This is the question where you get a chance to demonstrate how talented you are. Now, we here are not talking about your singing talent. Do not divert. Focus only on the strengths that you believe will help in the job you are applying for. Start by describing your skills and then elaborate on the experiences that you have had in the past.
8 Do you consider yourself to be a team player?
Ans. The answer has to be a yes. There is no company that can function without a team and if you are looking to crack the interview, make sure that you sound sure that yes, you are a team player. You can also answer that by reflecting on any incident that proves that you are a good team player. You should also make sure you inform the interviewer about any tough calls you may have taken in your previous job. This may be a customer-related incident or even an employee-related one. These are the kind of scenarios that will impress the interviewer.

Every company has a different interview process that they follow. BoA also has its own interview process that they follow. To make sure that you get the job, you must go through these tips before appearing for an interview at Bank of America.
First, work on your appearance. The phrase – “The first impression is the last impression” is indeed applicable here. This is why it is important that you dress the part. It is good if you wear formal attire and avoid your casual jeans & t-shirt. This will not just improve your impression in front of the interviewers, but will also reflect how serious you are about this job.
Another tip that might help you crack the interview at Bank of America is to prepare well before the interview. Before appearing for an interview, make sure that you get all the information about the bank. The more knowledge you have about the Bank of America, the more are your chances of getting hired.

Always turn off your phone and bring at least 3 copies of your CV or resume. While interviewing, keep a note that you should not be too fast as it will sound like you are nervous. This does not mean that you can go as slow as you like because that will make you sound boring and the interviewers will lose their interest in you.

Bank of America Interview Questions and Answers
Based on my experience with interviewing candidates for various positions at Bank of America, I chose and analyzed the most common interview questions.
I also analyzed a common role play they use at the bank (especially when hiring new tellers and bankers), and other challenges you will have to deal with on a big day–when interviewing for the job with this banking giant.
Let’s have a look at some questions right now.
Tell me something about yourself
Hint: You should focus on your personality,experience, education and professional interests. On the other hand, it is fine to show your outgoing and honest personality (suitable for many banking jobs), mentioning one or two things that occupy your body or mind while you are not working.
Good answers:
I am twenty years old, like to spend time with all kinds of people and socialize. I am keen to learn more about banking industry and finance in general. I graduated from the Lincoln High School just recently. In my free time, I like to play sports, learn something new, and spend time with my friends.
Hi, my name is Jenni, I am from Toronto. I graduated from City University. Currently I am looking for a job where I can utilize my communication skills and knowledge from my studies. I believe that teller position would be a great start for my career. In my free time I like to read books and walk in the nature.
Why do you want to work at Bank of America?
Hint: You should focus on personal preferences for Bank of America, their vision, culture, working environment, portfolio, etc. You should simply focus on something that distinguishes them from other competitors, something that interviewers should be proud of.
Interviewers understand that most job seekers would be happy to get a job at any bank, not only at Bank of America. However, you should do your best to convince them that Bank of America is your first choice. Research will help you greatly in this case…
Good Answers
I believe that I would fit here, at least considering from what I have observed as a client of this bank. That’s why I prefer to work at Bank of America. Though I submitted my job applications also to other banks, you will always be my first choice.
I really like Bank of America. I, as well as other members of my family belong to the millions of satisfied clients of your bank. I believe this bank offers the widest portfolio of products, services and solutions for their clients. That’s why I would love to work here and would be proud of that.
What do you know about Bank of America?
Hint: You should definitely focus on good things. If you can pay them a compliment, do not hesitate for a second. Speaking numbers and facts, you present yourself as someone motivated to work for them, someone who did their homework. Again, research will help you greatly at this point.
But it is an interview, not a lecture. You shouldn’t speak about the history of the bank or something similar. You should simply focus on relevant things that will clearly show that that you have some knowledge of their bank, and didn’t apply just because you need a job, or couldn’t find anything better.
Good Answers:
Bank of America is the most popular and biggest bank in the US, in terms of assets. It is widely recognized for its leading online banking services, top notch customer service and friendly tellers. I hope to become one of these tellers.
Bank of America is well known with its friendly working culture, good possibilities for career growth and fair system of employee benefits. It’s also my dream place of work. Of course, I read a lot about goals, values and history of your institution, but I believe it’s not something you want to talk about right now.
Why do you think you can be a good [name of the position you apply for]?
Hint: If you have a similar working experience, focus on it. If not, you can mention the strengths and skills relevant for the job. And if this is your first job application, try to convince them that you have the right attitude and motivation, and would do anything to become a great analyst/banker/mortgage consultant/etc with them.
Bank of America provides an excellent training for all new hires, so you do not need to be worried if you lack previous experience. Show motivation and the right attitude to work, and they won’t have any problem hiring you for one of their entry level jobs, or perhaps even for a better position.
Good answers:
I meet the requirements for this role better than for any other you advertise. On the top of that, I had the same job in the past, so I have the experience and I believe I can bring some value to your branch on this position, and that also other employees can learn something from me.
While I have no previous experience with a job in a bank, I am eager to learn, and I am motivated to work hard. I have read wonderful things about your training program, and I am not worried I could not become a great teller. The personality is there, as well as the motivation. I just need some training to see how exactly to do the job in a most effective way.
Where do you see yourself in five years time?
Hint: They try to hire people who want to stay for long, and grow professionally in the bank.
They have a career plan for nearly every entry level job, going all the way up to managerial roles. Therefore, your answer should correspond with the possibilities they offer to the candidates.
Good answers
I would like to have a managerial position in a bank in five years time. Ideal scenario would be to start working here as a teller, improve my skills and knowledge over time, do a good job, and end up working as a assistant manager in five years time. Let’s see if we can make it happen.
I would like to have a senior financial analyst position in five years time. I know I need to learn a lot, and gain experience, but I am ready to commit my time and best effort to this dream. The entry level position in wealth management I am applying for sounds like a perfect foundation stone on my way to the job of a senior financial analyst.
It was easy so far, wasn’t it? It was easy because you saw the hints and sample answers. And I analyzed the most simple questions from the list. Let’s try to answer the following questions, without my help:
How would your former colleagues describe your personality?
How far are you willing to travel/what location do you prefer?
Have you ever worked at a bank before?
Give an example of you dealing with an irate customer and what you did to fix the problem?
Give an example of a time you made a point to go above and beyond with customer service?
Talk about your successful sales experience.
What do you think will be the most challenging aspect of this job?
What did you like and dislike the most about your previous job?
Explain a time when you were very busy and needed to prioritize the tasks ahead of you.
Tell me about a time when you thought it was important to follow a rule. Why was it important to follow this rule and how did following this rule effect others?
Why did you choose Bank of America and not another bank and how does it relate to your career plan?
Why should we hire you, and not one of many other candidates?
….

Twenty days later, I started to work for the bank! Jacob’s eBook helped me to deal with behavioral question and role-play, and to get rid of job interview stress for good.
Angelica, Virginia Beach
I had never received a call back after the interviews. To be honest, I thought it was impossible to land a serious job without having experience, or a good connection at the bank…. Then I submitted my application to Bank of America, bought your guide and here I am with a full time job contract for personal banker. Thank you Jacob!
Brenda, Mesa
I was always afraid of the interviews. After reading your guide I finally saw the things from another perspective, and immediately understood all mistakes I had done in the past, while vainly trying to get a job. I got rid of stress, know what to say, and got a job of a Team Manager in a local banking center.
Carl, Tampa
Anything more to say? Do you have any questions?
Jacob Gates, author of the eBook

It’s just up to you to decide whether you want to sacrifice the money you will make in your new job in one or two hours, to ensure you will get that job at first place, or prefer to let this opportunity slip between your fingers, risking that you would not get any job (and not earn anything).
In both cases, I wish you good luck!

how to pass the interview and what is expected of you
In the eyes of many foreign employers, Russian employees are considered very valuable specialists and a good investment for the company. This is especially true for specialists in technical areas: programmers, engineers, designers, geologists, oilmen and other “techies”. A strong technical school and the prestige of technical education in Russia puts Russian specialists among the best professionals and most desirable candidates for employers.
Foreign employers are now widely represented in Russia, and those companies that have their own personnel departments in Russia are understandable and familiar to Russian job seekers. But many foreign companies do not have HR departments in Russia. In this case, the Russian candidate will need to communicate with foreigners who will conduct an interview in the company of interest to him. In this article, we will look at the main cultural characteristics of interviewing in American companies and the expectations of US employers from applicants for their vacancies. In subsequent articles of this cycle, we will consider the features of these processes in other Western (Germany, France, Sweden, Britain) and Eastern companies (India, Japan, China, South Korea).
American Companies: Interview and Job Requirements
In recent years, it has been common for most large companies around the world to use American personnel assessment technologies. The same is true in the way interviews are conducted. But still, in many companies there are clear national characteristics that applicants should consider in order to create a good impression about themselves.
Let’s start with how interviews are conducted in American companies, and what American employers expect from applicants.
US company interviews
In the United States, each company has its own list of guidelines that determine whether a candidate is suitable for a position. These principles allow you to assess whether you have the necessary knowledge and skills, as well as to make sure that you fit into the corporate culture.
The culture of communication in American companies is probably one of the most friendly. But at the same time, job seekers and employees are expected to be willing to put the company’s interests ahead of their own. For example, in most American companies it is the norm to give work urgent attention at any time of the day and even on weekends if necessary. Some American companies (for example, P&G, Coca-Cola, etc.) maintain a downright idolatrous culture of loyalty to their company. However, this is not unique to American companies. In Japanese and South Korean companies, employees are required even more in this regard.
American Interview Etiquette
Interviews are often stressful, especially for younger job seekers. The main strategy is to make calm and self-confidence: this is what always looks strong.
American managers are usually very friendly, smiling and pleasant to talk to. American companies rarely use stress interview techniques. But, at the same time, Americans in HR are professionals in their field, and they know how to conduct a comprehensive assessment of your abilities. Therefore, you should not expect high marks from them only on the basis of a pleasant conversation.
When answering questions, smile and feel free to think before answering a question. If you are offered water before the interview, take it. A sip of water before answering a question can give you time to think about the answer.
Below are a few more tips to help you perform your best when interviewing at a US company.
Maintain eye contact
For American companies, self-confidence is an important trait of a future employee. Natural and steady eye contact gives the impression of confidence. Therefore, maintaining eye contact with the interviewer is both a sign of interest, respect, and a sign of your self-confidence.
Use positive body language
When you first greet your interviewer, you can offer an open smile and a firm handshake, and it is acceptable to shake hands with a person of the opposite sex. Try to sit up straight and avoid crossing your arms over your chest – you will look closed and defiant. Keep your phone turned off and don’t look at your watch every now and then. Your openness will tell the interviewer that you value time, are interested in the process, and are actively involved in the conversation.
Show your qualifications
In Russia and in many Eastern cultures, odes about yourself are not welcome. But at an interview with an American, on the contrary, it is better to talk about yourself in a positive way, without mentioning troubles. Be proud of the work you have done throughout your career and feel free to share your accomplishments. This will help the interviewer understand what makes you different from other applicants.
Be prepared to provide specific facts and figures about your work that the interviewer will want to know. Don’t be shy about your accomplishments – let the interviewer know what a real contribution you can make to the company.
Use examples with a short beginning, middle, and end
Americans value time. If you are asked to talk about yourself or previous work, be brief. Your answer should include an introduction where you explain the situation, a body describing the problem or task, and an ending where you show how you solved the problem or task.
A good way to help you develop a comprehensive response to interview questions is to use the STAR approach:
Focus on the positive
Some general interview questions require you to explain potentially negative situations, such as when you encountered a problem, how you handled an uncomfortable situation, or why you left your last job. You don’t have the opportunity to speak negatively about a past job or someone you’ve worked with. Your interviewer is trying to understand what you may have learned from negative experiences, your problem-solving skills, and how you can deal with pressure. Instead of showing the negative, focus your response on the positive aspects of the situation—how you overcame a challenge or learned from your mistakes.
US Business Interview Questions
In a successful interview, you should feel that you were able to convey your knowledge and skills and explain how the companies could benefit, as well as successfully demonstrate your personality. The overall tone of your interview should be positive.
As a rule, an interview in American companies takes the form of a regular dialogue and it may seem that there is nothing complicated in it. This is a deceptive prejudice, it is necessary to prepare for it. One of the best ways to prepare is to practice interview questions.
Here are some general questions you may be asked. These are general questions, they may not match what you will be asked in a real interview, but by using them you will get practice in answering other similar questions.
Tell us about yourself.
Your interviewer does not ask you to tell him about the facts of your personal life, and, in fact, he has no legal basis for this, he is interested in information about your previous career. Take this opportunity to talk about your past responsibilities and future career goals. Explain why you have chosen this field of activity and what you are going to achieve.
What are your biggest strengths and weaknesses?
Even if you don’t get this specific question, you need to know the answer to it, it will be useful for answering other questions. For example, if analytical skills are your forte, you can use that to talk about how you were able to use certain data to solve a problem.
When asked to name your weaknesses, the interviewer is looking for examples of how you recognize your weaknesses and work on that basis. Focus your response on your job, not on personal weaknesses like credit card debt or a bad driving experience.
A good example of this would be, “I spend more time than necessary on a task that can be assigned to someone else. Although I have never missed deadlines, I understand that my time could be used more rationally. I tried to set deadlines for myself, only then move on to the next task, and also set specific tasks and deadlines for them for all team members.
This example identifies gaps in management issues and shows the process of solving the problem.
Why are you interested in this position/company?
It is important that you learn everything about the future position and the company as a whole before the interview. Even if you’ve applied for multiple positions and gone through multiple interviews, the interviewer will want to know that you’re interested in the job and that you’ve taken the time to look into the details. You could talk about an article you read about this company that impressed you. Give examples of how you think your skills can be used in the company.
Tell me about a time when you were under a lot of pressure. How did you manage? What was the result?
This is just one example of a behavioral interview question you may encounter. You need to give examples of real behavior in stressful situations. The use of the STAR approach is encouraged. Explain how you handled a stressful situation at work and how you ensured a positive outcome.
What is your greatest achievement?
This question is another example of where you can talk about your accomplishments. This must be done with confidence. Provide a response with a closing statement that goes something like this: “My accomplishment was to save hundreds of hours of work time for my company by developing and implementing an internal tool. ”
Where do you see yourself in five years?
With this question, your interviewer will want to make sure that you are not going to quit this job after a while. Convince them that you are interested in working in the company and career growth in its structure.
Why should we hire you?
This will be an opportunity to explain to your interviewer why you are the best for the job. Give examples from your previous experience, examples of accomplishments relevant to the job you are applying for. It would be appropriate to talk about your readiness to work in a team, organizational and communication skills and motivation. Your answers should be thoughtful, but short enough and linked to company information. Do not rely only on superficial information from the company’s website.
Your Questions to the Interviewer
We’ve written repeatedly about why it’s important that you also ask interview questions. This is especially important if you are interviewing for a foreign company where the culture is different.
Examples might be: “Tell me about the day-to-day responsibilities of this position” or “Can you talk about a problem you have now and do you need someone to help solve it?” You should not ask in your first interview about salary and benefits. In American companies, this issue is usually considered in the process of subsequent interviews.
Summing up the interview
At the end of the interview, don’t forget to firmly shake the interviewer’s hand and thank him for the opportunity and his time. Ask about your next steps in the interview process to show you are interested in the job. Send an email to thank the employer representative again. In the letter, remind about your qualifications and why you are ideally suited for this position.
The first interview can only be the first step in important meetings to get the job of your dreams. Stay positive. Regardless of the outcome of this interview, you are gaining valuable experience. The interview process may not be easy, but you are stronger and have already done a lot.
In general, American companies, in our opinion, are leaders in terms of people management, technology HR and management. And the American management culture is spreading all over the world, including in Russia.
We believe that the key to success in getting your dream job is preparation. Spend 4-5 days on quality preparation: write a competent resume and cover letter, prepare for job tests and interviews, and you will get the job you want. Good luck!

How to make an appointment for an interview at the US Embassy
The first thing to do is to pay the consular fee using the link
http://www.ustraveldocs.com/ru_ru/ru-niv-paymentinfo.asp. The B1/B2 tourist visa fee and the F1 student visa fee is $160. However, it is paid in rubles at the current consular rate. You can pay for it online by bank card or in cash at specially equipped offices of the Russian Post. Download receipts for payment by mail (pdf)
When obtaining F1 student visas, an additional SEVIS fee is paid.
Citizens of certain countries (see Department of State website http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/fees/reciprocity-by-country.html for more information) may be subject to reciprocity fees for issuing a visa after it has been approved. For citizens of the Russian Federation, this fee has been abolished.
Only after paying the fee can you proceed to the next step – filling out the DS-160 application.
Recommendations for filling out DS -160 here (until I wrote a recommendation, this sentence can be temporarily deleted).
After paying and filling out the DS-160, an appointment for an interview at the US Embassy will be opened in about a day. The date is chosen by any of the proposed.
If you do not have a created profile in the system yet, then click the “New user” button and follow the instructions.
List of required documents for obtaining a visa to the USA
Although your motivation is more important for the consul, how you behave during the interview and how you answer questions, but, nevertheless, you should not neglect the list of documents for obtaining a visa in USA. Therefore, we recommend that you prepare it conscientiously and in advance. Detailed list here.
How to behave during an interview for a US visa
Passing an interview at the embassy requires elementary rules:
First, check the address of the Embassy in advance, get an idea of how long it will take you to arrive at the Embassy on time. Take time with a margin (40 minutes – an hour, at least), with the expectation of traffic jams and ignorance of the area. The interview is possible in 4 cities of Russia: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg and Vladivostok. In Ukraine: in Kyiv.
Don’t take too many things with you.
Be prepared for a long queue, which you will definitely find outside the American Embassy.
Dress warmly so you don’t appear in front of the Consul as blue ice.
Look natural, not provocative. No need to dress up in formal attire (no need to wear a suit and tie). It is better to do without flashy colors, short skirts or dubious things. Clothing should be moderately modest, strict, neat and tidy. The best option is to dress the way you walk in everyday life.
Be aware that your belongings, as well as yourself, will be searched by a metal detector.
Be prepared to be asked to turn in your phone and other equipment.
Get ready to go through 3 queues: 1) for registration 2) for the prints of all 10 fingers 3) to receive a ticket and proceed to the queue for the interview itself.
Be sure to rehearse at home in front of a mirror or with friends possible questions and answers.
The room where visa interviews are held is somewhat like a bank: many windows, an electronic queue and a crowd of people.
Another question many tourists/students have in mind is “What language is the interview at the US Embassy in?”
Officers speak both English and Russian. Depending on your purpose of travel and the type of visa requested, the officer will select the language of communication. It is logical that if you are going to study at a university or work, you must be proficient in English. In this case, the officer will want to check your level of English proficiency.
If you are traveling to the USA as a tourist, you are not required to know English at all, in which case the interview is conducted in your native language. True, all officers have different levels of Russian proficiency, someone does not speak it perfectly, so speak slowly, clearly and in short phrases. On average, the interview itself at the US Consulate lasts from 1 to 5 minutes.
Basic rules when communicating with an officer:
Be natural, calm, smile (but if you can’t smile naturally, then it’s better without forced smiles).
Look directly at the consul, even when he is not looking at you, but at the computer.
Respond loudly, clearly and, most importantly, adequately only to the questions asked by the consul. Don’t talk too much, don’t interrupt.
It is clear that there is excitement, but even if you are nervous, try to behave with dignity and confidence (but not insolently and impudently), answer everything as it is, tell the truth. Don’t fawn.
If you misunderstood or misheard something, politely ask again or try to formulate the answer to the question as you understood it, adding: “Did you mean that, if I understood you correctly?”
Show patriotism and strong ties to your homeland. You must convince the consul that you have somewhere to return: you have a well-paid job or a favorite study, family, friends, your beloved grandmother’s anniversary is in two months, and you just love Russia, a country with a rich culture, history, with the greatest outstanding figures (be prepared to give specific names and surnames). The most important thing is to convince the officer of the absence of immigration intentions.
US Embassy Interview Frequently Asked Questions
Download Frequently Asked Questions with persuasive answers in English here.
What exactly is asked at the interview?
All types of questions can be divided into several parts:
The first block of questions: basic questions on the topic:
Purpose of your trip to the USA. Tourism, study or work?
For tourists:
Why do you want to go to America?
What cities are you planning to visit?
What caused the interest in the country, what do you know about America?
How many weeks are you coming?
Students:
If you are going to study, why do you need a language course? Where are you going to apply the learned language? It is necessary to show a clear and inseparable connection between the knowledge that the student is going to receive and their application at home.
Why did you choose this particular educational institution. It can be answered that the school has a good reputation, is accredited by the educational organizations ACCET (Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training) and English USA, which has a lot of positive feedback about the school and the quality of education. You must have an invitation from the school with you so that you can present it to the officer on demand. Know the address where it is located, be able to give details about the school.
Accommodation reservation is not required. But if you already have it, take it with you, it is advisable to remember the address, the names of the host.
Questions about your life in Russia: full name, occupation (where do you work, what does your company do, what are your responsibilities) and other personal information.
The officer may also ask clarifying questions on the DS-160 application form if he notices errors.
If you followed the above advice and answered convincingly and adequately, then, as a rule, the interview at the US Consulate will end successfully.
The second block of questions: unexpected and tricky questions
Sometimes an interview can take unexpected forms. You will notice that the officer talks to you longer than usual or asks some tricky or strange questions. Don’t worry, there are several reasons for this:
Officers are people too, and it’s simply boring for them to ask the same questions day after day that are already written in the subcortex of their consciousness. They want to diversify their working day.
The officer liked you, and your story aroused his sincere interest, so he asks you clarifying questions, because he is really curious, and this does not mean that he is “digging” and trying to “fill you up”.
The officer found something in your story illogical or suspicious, he wants to dispel his doubts. Even under such a set of circumstances, do not worry and continue to behave naturally and with dignity. Tell the truth. Even if the “rehearsed truth”
I will give some examples of non-standard questions
“How many legs does a chair have”, “how many legs does a horse have”;
Sing a Russian folk song or anthem – yes, yes, and this also happened in practice! – most importantly, do not get lost, but be resourceful, flexible and, most importantly, spontaneous.
Birthday of your parents;
What is the name of your teacher in economics/literature, etc.
What was the last topic in Biology/English, etc.
How many rooms are there in your flat?
What did you eat for breakfast today?
What color is your T-shirt?
Who is the Minister of Finance of the Russian Federation?
If you are not married, is there a serious relationship now?
And others
Mistakes at the interview at the US Consulate
Cannot:
Be late.
Be arrogant, be rude to the Embassy staff, talk loudly with other students, violate discipline. If the rules are not followed, students are taken out of the Embassy without giving a chance to be interviewed.
Unnecessarily fuss, twitch, freak out, get confused in their answers.
Take e-books, wires, headphones, tablets, laptops and other equipment with you. If you are traveling from another city to Moscow just for an interview, leave these things in advance in the luggage room at the station, or give them to friends who are waiting for you outside.
For girls: no need to wear 20 cm high heels, neckline, short skirts and bright make-up. For men: no need for expensive watches and suits.
Tell an officer that you are going to stay in America, that is, to immigrate, marry an American, or just to earn money.
To say that you don’t like, or even worse, “hate Raska” – God forbid you say this, with 90% certainty – you will be denied a visa.
Lie to an officer, be sure that he will feel it. And if you lie, then lie confidently and rehearsed so that there is no discrepancy in versions.
When it comes to summer exchange programs (for example, Work and Travel) or summer holidays, you should not sign up for a visa interview right up to the date of departure. Since behind the scenes there are limits on the issuance of such visas, and ambassadors are becoming more selective and harmful. And it is better to choose the morning time, while the consuls are full of energy and in a good mood. Didn’t have time to get tired or God forbid that the students / tourists in front of you did not spoil the mood of the ambassador.
Final Interview: How do you know if a visa has been approved?
How do you know if you have been granted a visa or not? It’s simple – if the officer took the passport – then the answer is yes. Wait for him with the coveted American visa, which will come via Pony Express. The waiting time for a passport after an interview is from 1-2 days to a week.
True, there are exceptions here, about them separately here.
If you are less fortunate, the officer will return your passport along with the official visa denial document. Do not try to beg him to change his mind – this will not help, also do not try to threaten or show your displeasure. Make a heroic decision and direct all your energy into a second attempt, which will be more successful. You can undertake it literally immediately, though you will have to pay the consular fee again. Sign up for a second interview, take into account your previous experience and tune in for a positive answer.
Case stories and testimonials
Student A of the Faculty of History, who traveled under the Work and Travel exchange program, was asked about the year the Great Patriotic War began – she did not answer, perhaps because she did not understand the question, since I did not expect to hear such a non-standard question. They didn’t let me in, they refused a visa. Since the officer’s logic is: You are a good student, the future elite in your homeland, this should be seen in the student’s appearance, intellect and answers. Such an ideal student, in the understanding of the officer, does not skip classes and clearly understands his specialty or, at least, should be able to answer elementary questions from his field. Such a student already knows where he will work (even if he is still in his first year).
Journalism student B easily got his visa, as he convinced the officer that he simply needed to go to America, as he was collecting material for an article about America, which would form the basis of his term paper, and then become part of his thesis.
Another student was rejected because she spoke English too well. The officer felt that she had no reason to go to the United States.
Student G was interviewed at the US Embassy on May 10th. She was asked about holiday 9May, why he is important to her (if at all important, and he, of course, is important, and nothing else) and how she celebrated the holiday. And then a story followed about the great feat of the Russian people, about the fact that this is the greatest pride for our country, as well as the mention of military songs. Thank God they didn’t force her to sing.
Student D was not given a visa, because she indicated in the questionnaire that she had no relatives in the United States, the officer decided to double-check this information and again asked the same question in person. And then the student could not lie and admitted that her sister lives in America. The visa was denied. Since the officer regarded it in such a way that when filling out the application, the student deliberately tried to deceive the Embassy and gave false information about herself.
Student E was asked what other skills he had. He said he knew German. The ambassador asked him to demonstrate this. After successfully saying a couple of phrases in German, the visa was approved.
We wish you good luck with your interview. The devil is not as scary as he is painted. Be positive and yourself and consider that the American visa is almost in your passport!
How do I get a US visa interview?
Get an education at one of the prestigious American universities, travel around a country that is so different from Russia, get a job. Or maybe you were invited by friends? There are many reasons to travel to the USA. But we all have one thing in common: you need to get an American visa – official permission from a consular officer. And here many questions arise: where, how?
“Experts” assure that it is almost impossible to do this: the American authorities see an immigrant in everyone and impose a taboo on obtaining a visa. Oh, and it’s impossible to catch a free window for an interview.
But this is not entirely true. It is important to do everything consistently. We offer step by step instructions. Move on it. And everything will depend on you, on attentiveness and responsibility.
Let’s just say it’s important to be as honest as possible when filling out the questionnaire and at the interview. So you will not be nervous, and there will be no doubts about your profile. More precisely, according to your intentions.

What you need to know before passing the interview for a visa
We begin to carefully prepare for the interview. This is the first step towards obtaining a visa. Pay close attention to each item.
Pay the consular fee (you need to print a receipt from the official website of the Embassy, fill it out and come to the Russian Post office, where you need to pay in rubles at the consular rate of $ 160. Be sure to save the receipt).
Take a photo (photo 5×5 must be in digital JPG format, take a flash drive with you to the studio or ask to send a photo to your mail; a paper photo is needed for an interview). You can not be photographed in glasses, with a scarf, in a hat. The photo must be in color on a white background. Please check the visa photo requirements to be sure.
Fill out the form (form DS – 160, please approach it responsibly. This is an important part of the application for a nonimmigrant visa to the United States. DS – 160 is an electronic form that must be completed by every applicant for a US visa, including children of any age. Questionnaire completed and submitted electronically).
Sign up for an interview (it takes place in Moscow, Yekaterinburg or Vladivostok). To record, register on the website of the US diplomatic mission and set the time and date of the interview online one day after payment and filling out the questionnaire). Interviews cannot be avoided even by green card holders.
How is the interview at the embassy?
The second step is perhaps the most important. This is an interview at the Embassy. So you go for an interview. Check again against the list of documents. Make sure you take:
A) Acting and previously issued passports,
b) receipt of consular fee,
c) A printed letter with an invitation to an interview,
) Printed confirmation of confirmation of the application of the application ds- 160,
e) 1 photo in compliance with all requirements,
f) any evidence of a close connection with Russia (a Russian passport is required).
Make sure you work through the answers to possible questions (see examples below), rehearse them in front of a mirror or with friends. Do not forget to find out in advance the way to the Embassy and the travel time to it. You must come to the interview fully armed. Of course, you can’t be late. At the entrance to the Embassy you will be asked for a Russian passport. You will need other documents later.
Be prepared to line up at the Embassy to be searched with a metal detector. These are the security requirements – nothing can be done. Don’t bring cell phones, smartwatches, laptops, and oversized bags. There are no left-luggage offices at the Embassy, and you cannot take them with you to an interview.
After the checkpoint in the first hall, present the prepared package of documents. Your fingerprints will be taken in a separate room. Now go to the waiting room. Don’t be afraid to get lost – the staff speaks Russian. They are always ready to help. There is an electronic scoreboard in the waiting room. Wait for the number assigned to you to light up. It’s printed on the ticket.
In the meantime, calm down. During the interview, be friendly, smile naturally. You are ready! Come to the window with a smile, say hello. Give the officer a passport and confirmation of the completed application form. Now calmly wait for questions, even if the pause is prolonged. The Embassy employee is a professional psychologist, the moment of communication is important to him, not the documents.
The interview lasts 2-3 minutes, so speak clearly and concisely. The officer finds out the intentions and reasons for the trip to the United States, visa history, your financial situation in Russia, and is interested in the place of work. The interview should take place in a calm atmosphere, do not fuss and do not twitch. Answer questions, smile and look at the officer.
Depending on how the interview went, you may or may not get your passport back. Not returned – hurrah! So the answer is positive. Issuance of a visa – in 2 – 7 days. Its validity period is at least one year.
No time to put off learning English! Complete the Conversational Marathon from English Show to feel at home abroad. In 2 months you will learn how to place an order by phone, call a taxi, explain the way, buy tickets / food / souvenirs – in general, you can solve any problem without a language barrier!
Can I get a US visa without an interview?
Yes, you can. The design of 2020 largely depends on the situation with the coronavirus in the world and the measures taken. Today, a visa without an interview is issued in case of repeated application. The applicant must meet the requirements: have a valid entry permit or within 24 months after its expiration. Absentee visas may be allowed for children under 14 years of age.
What questions are asked in a US visa interview?
Asked questions can be any, sometimes even tricky. But no matter what they ask you, be sure to show that you are a patriot of your country. You feel good in Russia: here are your relatives and friends, study or work. You can say that your mother’s birthday is in a month, and you want to bring her a gift from the trip. The officer must make sure you don’t want to immigrate.
You are worried and justified. Before a responsible business, we are all worried. Look at these questions and rehearse the answers to them. This will help you calm down and confidently go to the interview. In parentheses is the answer. Do not think that this is the only correct one. Choose your answers.
Why are you going to the US?/What is the purpose of your trip? – What is the purpose of your trip to the USA?
(I am going for tourism purposes. – I am going for the purpose of tourism.)
Where will you stay in the US? – Where do you plan to stay in the US?
(I will stay at … . – I will stay at … .)
How long will you stay in the US? – How long do you plan to stay in the US?
(I want to stay for . .. . – I want to be there for … .)
Who are you going with? – Who are you planning a trip with?
(I’m going with my … . – I’m going with … .)
Have you visited the United States previously? – Have you been to the USA before?
(Yes/No – Yes/No)
What level of English do you have?/What is your English level? – What is your level of English?
(I speak English fluently. – I speak English fluently)
Who is going to sponsor your visit? Why? – Who pays for the trip and why?
(My … is going to sponsor my visit. – My trip is paid for by my … .)
Why do you want to travel to the USA? – Why do you want to visit the USA?
(Statue of Liberty is so amazing, so I dream to see it with my own eyes. – The Statue of Liberty is very impressive, so I dream of seeing it with my own eyes).
These are such simple questions – but remember that we answer sincerely and honestly. This is very important in this situation. Do not forget that your answers are a direct road to the coveted visa.
How to quickly improve the level of English for an interview for a US visa?
Finally, the third step is your relationship with the English language.
The interview can take place both in Russian and in English. It depends on the purpose of your trip. If you want to study at a US university, it would be strange that you do not speak English. The visa officer will expect convincing arguments from you that you know English at a sufficient level to feel free in a foreign country.
No need to assure an officer of a brilliant knowledge of English during an interview, Americans do not like this.
But it is important to be fluent in English for the trip. Only in this way will you feel comfortable in America. Pull up your conversational, go to courses. There are many offers, but you need to choose the best. Try English Show (@english_show) Why? See what you get:
lots of free video tutorials to see if this training is right for you,
convenient online format – no need to go anywhere,
learning via zoom – you see your teacher, who adapts to your pace of work,

access to lessons at any time convenient for you – so time zones are not a problem,
C1 and above teachers who know how to teach you how to speak,
communication with native speakers – confident knowledge of spoken English is provided to you.
Knowing English is an investment in your future. It is the most far-sighted. Language skills can come in handy for more than just traveling to the US. Many employers are looking for specialists with knowledge of English. You can also read, listen to music, watch movies.

What Are the Duties of a Unit Secretary in a Medical Environment? | Work
By Ashley Donohoe Updated August 24, 2018
A unit secretary – also known as a unit clerk – handles clerical tasks for a specific department or floor of a medical facility. The role involves making patients feel welcome, verifying information for insurance companies, helping medical staff with transcription and records requests, and responding to messages and calls. These unit secretary duties are similar to what receptionists and medical administrative assistants do; these duties require basic office skills, an understanding of medical terminology and competency with computer software. Career prospects for unit secretaries are good because of the booming medical field, although your earnings potential will depend on the type of medical environment you work in, your location and your work experience.
Job Description
A unit secretary job description focuses on helping the medical facility’s unit or department with administrative tasks, along with providing customer service to patients. Some common unit secretary duties include paging staff, meeting with patients and their families upon arrival, handling incoming calls about appointments, making requests for patients’ tests, and updating patient records with information from doctors and nurses. This role can also require that you help prepare for meetings, handle the daily mail, keep records of visitors and verify patients’ charts to ensure that the data is correct and that it meets insurance requirements. Computer skills are necessary, since unit secretaries use electronic medical-record systems and software for working with spreadsheets, databases and word processing documents. The medical environment can be fast-paced, which makes the ability to juggle a variety of tasks and to work with multiple people a high priority in this field.
Education Requirements
In addition to a high school diploma, unit secretaries need some experience or training in medical concepts and software, which they may obtain on the job or through a school. While usually not required medical unit secretary and medical office specialist programs exist at community colleges. These may lead to a certificate or an associate’s degree, and often provide classroom and clinical training. Often, they teach topics such as medical records management, customer service, productivity software, medical transcription, medical terminology, medical coding and basic anatomy. After completing a training program, the option exists to take the Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) exam, which some employers prefer for unit secretaries.
Industry
Unit secretaries usually work in medical centers, general hospitals and also in specialty hospitals that have many departments. For example, a hospital unit secretary might cover the emergency room, the intensive care unit or radiology department. Usually, this role reports to nursing managers and staff nurses, along with a unit or department director. In addition to working at a front desk, a unit secretary can expect to walk through the unit often, where she will receive assignments and provide patient support. Part-time and full-time positions in medical settings exist, with varying shifts and some weekend hours. Some unit secretaries work three 12-hour shifts a week, which is similar to shifts of many nurses, while others work standard, eight-hour shifts. Some hospitals also offer weekend-only shifts for those who need to be off during the week.
Years of Experience and Salary
Based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ May, 2017 salary data, the median pay for medical secretaries is $34,610 annually, indicating lower earnings for half and higher earnings for half. Pay ranges from less than $24,240 for the bottom 10 percent of medical secretaries to more than $50,340 for the best-paid 10 percent of medical secretaries. Wages vary by medical environment and location. For example, average wages are $35,820 for outpatient care centers, $36,310 for general hospitals and $38,290 for specialty hospitals. In addition, the District of Columbia, Massachusetts and Connecticut offer some of the top earnings, while Louisiana, Arkansas and West Virginia are among the lowest-paying states.
PayScale also shows some small changes in unit secretary salary ranges, based on experience and tenure. As of August 2018, the progression looks like this:
0 to 5 years: $19,724 – $44,550
5 to 10 years: $22,590 – $44,985
10 to 20 years: $23,022 – $44,185
20 or more years: $26,088 – $47,297
Job Growth Trend
The BLS expects that unit secretaries and other medical secretaries will benefit from a high 22-percent rate of job growth between 2016 and 2026. This will add an estimated 129,000 jobs for medical secretaries over that period. Strong demand for medical services leads to a much better outlook for medical secretaries than for administrative professionals working in other settings, such as law offices and executives’ offices. Having an education in or a certification in administrative medical assisting, along with experience working in a medical environment, can provide an advantage when seeking work.
Job Description for a Hospital Unit Secretary | Work
By Ashley Donohoe Updated August 10, 2018
Hospital unit secretaries assist patients who are entering and leaving the facility, and they also ensure that the staff has access to the medical records, patient information and supplies that the staff needs. The duties of hospital unit secretaries include updating patients’ charts and files, setting up appointment and referral requests, relaying information to medical professionals and assisting with medical billing and insurance. This clerical role is a good fit, if you have an understanding of medical terminology and you have strong computer skills. Although you may earn lower wages than do most clinical medical professionals, hospital unit secretaries are in high demand, resulting in good job opportunities.
Job Description
Managing physical and electronic medical records, refilling supplies, welcoming guests and handling clerical tasks for doctors and nurses are all part of a hospital unit secretary job description. These medical secretaries take appointment requests, assist with patient discharge, answer phone calls and emails, and take notes for medical professionals. Other unit secretary duties can include making copies, backing up files, paging hospital personnel and directing patients to their rooms. Frequent interaction with patients and staff requires unit secretaries to communicate clearly and have good people skills. The hospital environment often keeps unit secretaries busy with multiple tasks, making it crucial to stay organized and prioritize what is most important.
Education Requirements
Hospitals look for unit clerks with a high school education, computer skills and some medical terminology knowledge. Unit secretaries should know how to use productivity software such as Microsoft Office, work with electronic medical record systems and coding software, and use accounting applications for medical billing duties. Some vocational schools offer short-term diploma programs for aspiring medical secretaries that can help you meet requirements. These often cover common software applications, medical terminology and practices for medical transcription, billing and coding. Hospitals often provide additional training on the job as well.
Industry
Hospital unit clerks can work in general hospitals and specialty hospitals. Some of these hospitals may specifically assist children or the elderly, help people with psychiatric conditions or addictions, offer acute care or treat certain medical conditions. They work closely with doctors and nurses to offer help with clerical. While most time is spent at a desk, they also go to patients’ rooms and other locations to interact with staff. Most hospital unit clerk jobs are full time and can require irregular hours since hospitals need staff available around the clock.
Years of Experience and Salary
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports a median wage of $34,610 for all medical secretaries, as of May 2017, with half earning higher wages and half earning lower wages. For the lowest-paid 10 percent, annual wages were below $24,240, while the top 10 percent of medical secretaries earned over $50,340. The type of hospital affects what a unit secretary salary looks like. On average, they make $36,310 in general hospitals and $38,290 in specialty hospitals.
A hospital unit clerk salary rises somewhat with experience. As of August 2018, PayScale shows this average pay progression for unit clerks at different career stages:
0 to 5 years: $27,000
5 to 10 years: $29,000
10 to 20 years: $31,000
20 or more years: $33,000
Job Growth Trend
Although secretarial jobs overall are expected to decline between 2016 and 2026, the BLS expects a 22 percent increase in medical secretary employment over that period. Adding 129,000 jobs, this is considered very strong growth, compared to the 7 percent growth projected for the total number of occupations. Hospital unit secretarial job prospects are very good, because of the healthcare industry’s overall growth in serving the aging population. In addition, unit clerk jobs in hospitals will open up, because of retirement and career changes.

I have been working and studying in the medical field for more than 10 years. I am CPR and First Aid certified, I’m well-experienced at taking care of children. Having worked in a daycare center facility and having 5 children of my own. I am proud to say 2 of my children have graduated high school and are off to college and the other is an honor-roll student. I decided to stay home with my son who are 7 and 2 years old. They are wonderful and friendly and likes to play with other children. My daughter (24 years old) will be assisting me while she’s taking early childhood development courses at a local community college and she’s also a CPR and First Aid certified. Our facility is designed like homey atmosphere with a playroom area and a backyard for the kids to play outside and get some exercise.
Our daily activities are singing, arts & crafts, playing games, learning all while having fun. Depending on the weather we are also going outside for fun activities and for walks (Buggy ride) in the summer. I am very meticulous with cleaning and keeping my home as clean as when I worked in the hospital. I love taking care of children and believe that they deserve individual attention and care. Allow us to give that attention and care your child deserves. We are licensed by the state of Michigan.

Principles of operation of kindergarten No. 4 “Magic Land”
The principle of entertainment. It is used to involve children in purposeful activities, to form in them a desire to fulfill requirements and aspirations to achieve the final result.
The principle of novelty. Allows you to rely on involuntary attention, causing interest in work, by setting a consistent system of tasks, activating the cognitive sphere of a preschooler as much as possible.
Dynamic principle. It consists in setting goals for the education and development of the child, which would be constantly deepened and expanded, since unreasonable duplication of the content and tasks of classes is one of the reasons for the decrease in children’s attention and interest in learning.
The principle of complexity. The solution of any training, developmental and educational task must be planned taking into account the interaction of all factors: the state of health that affects performance, the complexity of the task, the time, form and intensity of the lesson.
The principle of humanization. “First love, then teach” – the rule of educational work with children. Individually differentiated approach in the system of developing education.
The principle of democratization. Includes the democratization of the management of the institution, the organization of the educational process on the basis of the curriculum and regimen of preschool educational institutions, taking into account the interests of children in the organization of joint activities.
The principle of cooperation. Allows you to create an atmosphere of goodwill during any activity. Provides for the presence of a “free pedagogical space” for the manifestation of the personality and individuality of educators and specialists of preschool educational institutions. It includes close cooperation with the families of pupils with the aim of a unified approach to the upbringing and education of children.
Main objectives of the Institution:
Protection of life and strengthening of physical and mental health of pupils;
Ensuring the cognitive-speech, social-personal, artistic-aesthetic and physical development of pupils;
Education, taking into account the age categories of pupils, citizenship, respect for human rights and freedoms, love for the environment, Motherland, family;
Implementation of the necessary correction of deficiencies in the physical and (or) mental development of pupils;

FAQs
AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED
We’re so proud!
Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.
SCHOOL-READY
What Learning Looks Like
Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.
Severna Park KinderCare Programs
Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)
Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.
Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)
Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.
Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)
This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.
Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)
This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!
Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)
When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.
Before- and After-School Programs (5–12 Years)
You can count on us to provide reliable care for your school-ager while you’re
at work, with safe transportation from our center to your child’s school and
back! Whether your child wants to start a drama club, build a volcano, or
create a comic book, they will have a place to follow their dreams. Your child
will start and end the day with a whole lot of fun!
School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)
Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.
Participating Child Care Aware Center
KinderCare partners with Child Care Aware® of America to offer fee assistance for
Active Duty military families and flexible support to fit their needs when care at a Child
Development Center on the installation is not available.
Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program
Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)
In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!
Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)
KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
way of learning the foundations of music.
Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)
Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)
Spanish
Spanish Adventures provides young learners with a foundation for later success with
the Spanish language. Music, games, children’s Spanish literature, and other tools give
children multiple opportunities to hear, practice, and see Spanish language to develop
vocabulary and conversation skills. Curriculum includes lessons on greetings, numbers,
colors, animals, family, body parts, and pets, as well as how to engage conversationally
during common scenarios at home, a restaurant, or at the zoo.
STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)
You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
amazing things!
Our Teachers
We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.
Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!
A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH
An Artist’s Heart
“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.
We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.
Family Stories
Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!
We moved to Severna Park in March 2018 and transferred our two boys to Severna Park KinderCare in May 2018. We absolutely love it here! Our two-year-old is in the Discovery Preschool class and is learning so much. We are amazed every day to hear all the things he is learning; he counts to 20 by himself, recites colors and shapes, and even sings songs that he’s learned. He is also learning how to interact with other kids and I’ve noticed a difference in how he interacts with his younger brother!
Our 10 month-old is in the infant classroom and just loves it at school! We get daily reports of his progress and even photos that just make our day (he is always so happy at school).
We truly value and appreciate the teachers and leaders at KinderCare more than they will ever know! Thank you so much for teaching our boys!
Jessie M. – KinderCare Parent
We really enjoy our boys attending Severna Park KinderCare, ages 1 and 2. They are very happy here. The staff is amazing and truly enjoy their kids. I’ve been amazed at how much they have learned here. We always get updates on their day, from activities to their feelings. It’s even hard to get my 2 year old to leave the center at times because he enjoys the attention and center so much. The Director, Colette, is great at answering our questions and concerns and the entire staff is very friendly. It has been a great overall experience.
Thank you staff for the great care provided, and always with a SMILE.

We strive to be as inclusive as possible. To that point, we provide a vegetarian option at mealtime, take care to not serve common allergens and can adapt menus based on your child’s food sensitivities. If your child has additional needs, we’ll work with you to figure out a plan.
Are meals included in tuition? Can I choose to send my child with lunch?
We provide nutritious meals and snacks developed by a registered dietician to meet the needs of rapidly growing bodies and minds. If your child has special dietary requirements and you would prefer to bring in their lunch, please make arrangements with the center director.
Does my child need to be potty-trained?
Every child begins toilet learning at a different age. Until your child shows an interest in toilet learning, we’ll provide diaper changes on an as-needed basis. When your child shows an interest, we’ll discuss how to work together to encourage toilet learning.

Severn Park – The Cure for Everything read online Mary and Horace were smoking raw cigarettes after taking a break from work when a truck full of jungle Indians appeared from Ipiranga. She heard the truck before she saw it, roaring its way through the Xingu Forest Preserve.
“Are we expecting anyone?” she asked Horace.
Horace shook his head, scratched his lean beard, and squinted into the woods. Diesel exhaust floated along with the smell of pitted earth and cigarette smoke. The truck roared louder and drove heavily through the main gate of the Xingu Assimilation Center.
In addition to the details of the characteristic face painting, the Indians behind the low sides looked like all new arrivals: tired and frightened, looking somehow stoic, huddled on narrow benches, and everyone is holding something – a child, a drum, a pan. Horace waved the driver to the right, up the hill towards the reception. Maria looked at the Indians, and they looked back, as if she were a three-armed freak from a booth.
“You scared the shit out of them,” said Horace, who was director of the “Projeto Brasileiro National de Assimilacia de Indio”. “The Indians will think that there are spirits here.”
“They should have called first,” Maria said. “I’d hide like a good little ghost.”
Horace stamped his cigarette into the thin soil of the rainforest. “Get down in the AV trailer,” he said. “I’ll call you in a couple of minutes.” He made an attempt to smooth his coarse hair and followed the truck.
Maria took a last puff and headed in the opposite direction to the Audio/Video trailer where she could watch what was going on in the ER without being visible herself. Horace spoke the major Amazonian dialects fluently: Tupi-Guarani, Arawakan, and Ge, but Maria had an innate understanding that he did not have. She remained a distant voice in his ear, murmuring advice into the microphone as he questioned one refugee tribe after another. She paid attention to the nuances of the language, accompanying him during conversations like a conscience. Or like a spirit. She glanced over her shoulder, but the Indian truck was already out of sight. No matter where they come from, however, all Indians have some idea of \u200b\u200bwhat white and black people look like, but you might think that they have never seen an albino in their life. Her strange eyes, her pale, translucent skin on the African features. For most of them, she was an unknown and somewhat terrible magical creature. To her… well… most of the Indians were no more, but no less, polite than any other person she had ever met.
She stopped to stamp her cigarette into the dirt, then listened. Another engine. But this time it’s not the heavy growl of a truck.
She turned back towards the gate. In the treetops behind the scattered slate roofs and chain-link fences of the Xingu Reserve, the monkeys squealed and swept through the branches like a visible wind. Headlights flashed between the trunks of thick undergrowth, and a jeep rolled out from behind the trees, waddling. On the hood was written in bright red letters: “Project Hiller”.
Maria waved the driver to stop. He and his passenger wore bright red jackets with the same “Project Hiller” slogan on the front pocket. The driver had a broad, almost Mexican face. The passenger was black to a deep blue, as if he had just stepped off a ship from Nigeria. He gave Maria an interested look, and she understood. He, too, had never seen an albino.
“We’re following the truck from Ipiranga,” the black man said in Portuguese. His name was embroidered over the heart: Nlikley.
She pointed to the dirt road, where the overhead spotlights pierced the approaching dusk. “The front desk is over there,” she said in the same language. “You should have called first. You’re lucky we have room for them.”
“Thank you,” said NLickly, and the driver changed gear.
“Hey!” Maria said as they drove off. “What is Project Hiller?”
Another culture rescue group, she reasoned, but the black one gave her another interested look. She did not understand this look, and did not react. The jeep rolled on, swaying on the rutted road.
Maria reached into her pocket for another cigarette, pulled one out of the pack, then pushed it back in. And instead of going to the AV trailer, she followed them down the hill to the emergency room.
She found NLickley and the driver inside with Horace, arguing in Portuguese while four Xingu Indians stood and listened, expressionless under their various colors, wearing Xingu T-shirts and khaki shorts.
“These people must be isolated,” the driver said. “They need to be isolated, or we’ll lose one half to measles and the other half to the flu.”
He seemed obsessed with the matter, although Horace nodded in agreement. Horace turned to one Indian, explaining what to do in his native Arawakan. “Take them to Site C. It’s far away, so go to Vaura’s camp. ”
“No,” NLickly said. “We’ll take them ourselves. You just show them where they can stay for the night.”
Horace raised his eyebrows: “For the night?”
“We’ll leave in the morning,” N’Likli said. “South of here, we’ve made a permanent home for them in Shawantin.”
Horace got up. “Since they’re in Xingu territory, they’re our responsibility. You can’t just dump them and then take them somewhere else. This isn’t a damn motel.”
The driver took out a stack of documents from his jacket pocket and spread them out on the table. All were stamped with official seals, and at the top of each page were the red letters “Project Hiller”. “I have the appropriate authority.”
“Like me,” said Horace. “And the corresponding part of a big fat grant from Brazil’s Plano de Desenvolvimento Economico e Social.”
The driver looked at his friend.
“Let me call,” N’Likli said. “We’ll sort it all out.”
Horace snorted and waved towards Maria. “She’ll show you where the phone is.”
“Here,” Maria said.
Not that Horace wanted to field the Indians, since the escorts had no authority. He’ll put up Project Hiller first, and hold the Indians back until he finds out where they came from and what they were doing in the back of the truck. Indians across Brazil are being evicted from their villages as an act of mercy before the last tribe is wiped out by pastoralists, rubber gatherers or gold miners. Xingu’s big fat grant was a sugar pill that the “Plano de Desenvolvimento” gave with one hand while destroying a thousand-year-old culture with the other. Horace understood this. Yes, everyone understood that.
N’Likli followed her across the compound, between swirling columns of mosquitoes, to the cicadas in the evening. The phone was on the other side of the reservation.

Toddlers

Children begin to transition from high chairs to sitting at a table for meals and snacks and are given ample opportunity for exploration.
We recognize that children at this age may be at very different stages of development. Some may have just started walking, while others are already exploring the many other facets of their emerging development. Our teachers create fun and rewarding activities that address each child’s developmental needs. Our toddlers also enjoy learning about letters, sounds, and animals with Zoo-Phonics.

Routines begin to take a definite form and children are mastering important skills that will enable them to be independent. There are a variety of age appropriate choices throughout the day to address major areas of child development including social and emotional, fine and gross motor skills, cognitive thinking, and language and literacy.

Silwan or Silwan (Hebrew Shiloah, Greek Siloam) is a predominantly Palestinian area of East Jerusalem. Adjacent to the Old City from the Kidron Valley. In ancient times, there was the sacred pool of Shiloah, known by the name of the Siloam font, mentioned in the Old and New Testaments. Jewish pilgrims who came three times a year (on the holidays of Pesach, Shavuot and Sukkot) to the Temple on the mountain, bathed here, and then climbed the Great Staircase leading to the Temple Shiloah and Kidron Valley

St. Elias Mar Elias Monastery is located at an altitude of 817 m above sea level, halfway from the Old City of Jerusalem to Bethlehem, east of the ancient road that linked the two cities. In Syriac and Palestinian Arabic, Mar Elias means “Saint Elijah”. According to legend, at this place Elijah the Prophet stopped to rest, on the way to Mount Horeb, where he fled from Samaria, fleeing the persecution of the godless Queen Jezebel.

It is the third holiest site in Islam after the Al-Haram Mosque in Mecca and the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina. Islam associates with this place the night movement of the Prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Jerusalem and his ascension to heaven (miraj).

Life in Cupertino.
Illustrated story / Habr
I work for a company that is engaged in offshore projects and is looking for those who are ready to go as a contractor to the states. I must say right away that the fate of a contractor is not at all sweet, and many at the first opportunity come back, or get a job full time. And some are sent back because the project suddenly stopped needing contractors. I will try to briefly share my most vivid impressions of life in the valley. There will be no technical details, because, unfortunately, they are not interesting. I have not yet found the project of my dreams and have not come up with it.
Cupertino
Why Silicon Valley
Microprocessors and other computer chips were developed here, which are just a silicon crystal – metal is deposited on a silicon substrate and a multilayer semiconductor circuit is obtained. The Intel Free Museum has an interesting story about this.
Corporate qualities
Important corporate qualities here are proactivity and self-presentation.
Proactivity is when a person does not sit and wait for instructions, but solves his own and not only his own problems, communicates with colleagues, finds out how to cope with certain difficulties and himself offers new solutions even where he was not asked .
And self-presentation includes not only the ability to talk about your current work and achievements, but also to share knowledge, make presentations for colleagues, write sensible letters and be very polite with everyone.
As Albina Yitzchoki from Netflix said, you have to give 150%
Girls
Some people leave because they can’t find a partner, some find them, some come with their wives or husbands. I have quite a few female colleagues. The wives of programmers, if they do not work in IT themselves, usually start by learning English, and then find a job. Some are at home with their children. It happens on the contrary that the wife gets a job in IT, and the husband travels with her on a spouse visa.
Children
Kindergartens here are paid, primary school is free, and then everything is paid again. I heard that student loans take decades to pay off.
Car
(The headline is pronounced in Yakubovich’s voice.) Life here is not very good without a car. Even the store is hard to get to, let alone travel. Uber is noticeably more expensive than in Russia, you can get from SFO airport to Cupertino for $100, and from San Jose for $50. A lot of Tesla drives around the roads. Some of my colleagues learned to drive here, it is believed that it is easier. I still don’t drive, I’m waiting for self-driving cars to appear (just kidding). The corporate apartment that I was rented for the first time is an hour’s drive from work. If you get into a morning or evening traffic jam, the road can take an hour and a half. For cars with more than one person (carpool), there is a dedicated lane.
Housing for rent
Housing is rented unfurnished. I not only bought a table, but also a second table, chairs, a bed and dishes. And when my visa expires, it will be necessary to somehow get rid of all this in order to free the room. Well, at least there is light, many have to buy floor lamps and it’s still dark. I pay 2 tons per month for housing. The agreement is concluded for at least a year, or for six months, if you’re lucky. You do not need to go to a notary, just sign a piece of paper.
The houses here are mostly two-storey unless you rent an apartment. Made of thick chipboard boards and covered with a thick layer of plaster. Inside the air conditioner, it is also a heater in winter. The audibility is very good, you can hear the neighbors sneezing, calling each other by name, shouting at Google and at the dog, breathing on the simulator. A Chinese couple lives behind my fence, they play the violin, keep geese and chickens. Someone else behind the fence is playing a drum set.
Many of my colleagues rent apartments in special complexes, there is a swimming pool, gym, yoga room, barbecue area and other amenities. Some apartments do not have washing machines, they are in the common area for a fee. My landlord installed a washing machine, a dryer, a dishwasher, a microwave oven, a non-working TV and even a jacuzzi.

English
My English is pretty average, locals don’t understand me well, and I understand them even worse. The social circle is mostly Russian-speaking and this is wrong, don’t do it. Russian speech is often heard around. There are Russian-speaking groups on Facebook where you can get good advice about life here.
Health insurance
My insurance company is called Blue Cross. We were offered two types of insurance: cheaper (HMO) and more expensive (PPO). The principle of copayment is widespread: the patient pays $10 for a visit to the doctor, and the rest is paid by the insurance company.
Separate company insures dentistry and separate eye care services.
I have never taken advantage of the insurance, although I once had a case. I somehow twisted my leg powerfully, running around the lake and not noticing the squirrel hole. He was limping for a month, and in the first week he could not walk at all. But I didn’t go to a neighboring city for an appointment, I just used an elastic bandage that a colleague bought for me.
Insurance for me and my wife is partly paid by the employer, and partly by myself from my salary. Now $400 is taken from my salary every month, before it was $166 for me alone and on a cheaper plan.
Technologies
Bank checks are still in use here, which must be signed like in films. Mobile communication is expensive, I paid $50 for one number, now I pay almost $90 for two. On highways between cities, the phone does not always catch.
Waste management
Separate waste collection is developed here. Most plastic from cafes and corporate canteens is biodegradable. Moreover, it is truly biodegradable, and not like bags from “green” stores in Russia, which break down into microplastics and can ruin the batch collected for processing. Biodegradable spoons, forks, and plates can be tossed into compost bins along with leaves, food scraps, and other organic matter. All clean (washed) plastic, glass, tin and paper are thrown into another container for recycling. It doesn’t need to be divided into factions. (I heard that this is also the case in Moscow now.) And everything else is thrown into the third container, which then goes to the trash.
When buying a drink in a plastic bottle, a tax of 10 cents is charged, then you can somehow return it if you return this bottle, but I have never done this and I don’t know how. There is also a tax on the disposal of mattresses, which is usually added to their cost. There are containers for clean clothes and shoes on the streets.
There are special bags for dogs in the parks, and their owners regularly use these bags.
upd: Here in this video they say (in English) that everything is not as good with biodegradable plastic as we would like: https://youtu.be/AKJSIl63DJw
Climate
I like the climate here most of all, although it may be a bit hot for some. A taxi driver once jokingly explained the high prices here as a tax on the sun. Here you can run almost all year round. And just now I was sitting in the backyard in shorts and a shirt and admiring the red Mars and the bright Jupiter. During the day in my room it happens to be 80-90 F (Fahrenheit), which is 26-32 C, and sometimes 69 F, which is 20 C.
Unfortunately, every year forests and nearby houses burn here. This year, I received an evacuation message on my phone (from the nearby city of San Mateo). And last year, due to forest fires, the electricity was cut off for one day in the canteen at work.
In a month and a half, the rainy season will begin, and all the scorched grass will turn green again. It will be beautiful. I did not see snow in the valley.
San Francisco tends to be cooler than the valley, and there is a chilly breeze on the bayfront.
Palm trees grow here, but I think they are all planted. And endemics are various sequoias, redwoods, oaks, birches and other coniferous and deciduous trees. There are bears, earth squirrels, mountain lions, deer, hummingbirds, sparrows, pigeons (in much smaller numbers than in Moscow), fur seals, elephant seals, lions, gulls, otters.
Pfeiffer beach
Travel
California has an incredible number of beautiful places that you should visit at least once in your life. Unfortunately, many of them are difficult to get to without a car. But, fortunately, I have many Russian-speaking colleagues, with whom we saw a lot of interesting things. My favorites are Yosemite, Point Lobos and Big Sur, San Diego and Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.
What I dislike the most is the sheer number of homeless people on the streets of Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Jose. They often live in tents, for example, under bridges or in downtown. Obviously, it’s not their fault.
You can take a surf lesson in Santa Cruz, which is quite fun. In Monterey, you can watch whales from a boat, it’s also interesting, but it’s very seasick.
Los Angeles
Contractors
Contractors are such second class people. We are not allowed to corporate events, to the gym, we are not entitled to a corporate discount and something else.
We have a different attitude, because we are temporary people who will leave for another project in six months or a year, and there will be some other contractors instead of us, so there is no point in building long-term relationships with us.
You can lose a project at any time, including for reasons beyond the developer’s control. Such a developer is either transferred back to Russia, or they try to find him another project here, if the visa still allows. My stay here was almost reduced by one and a half times in this way. With a fright, I began to answer everyone in a row in LinkedIn and even passed an interview at an Indian competitor company for a higher salary. After that, they swore to me not to send me back ahead of time, and I stayed.
“Mentality”
Here it is customary to be very polite and decent with people. Here, for example, is such a story.
On my first day of vacation, they decided to interview me for another project. At this time, we were driving to the hotel by car and did not have time to start the interview. In a completely agitated state, I galloped up to the hotel employee. In broken English, I tried to explain that I had an interview and I urgently needed Wi-Fi. But he was not at all interested in my problems, he had a procedure, a questionnaire, signatures and other things.
I behaved in a completely unrestrained way, which inexpressibly offended the hotel employee. He said that he would not tolerate such an attitude and I did not receive any Wi-Fi, as well as a place in a hotel. The manager later explained to our friend that he was protecting his colleagues from inadequate visitors in this way. But I think he just freaked out.
In Russia, I got away with such behavior, for example, in relation to subway employees who take away backpacks and feed them to the shaitan machine.
Corporate Ethics
At work, it is also customary to be very polite. Even if a colleague wrote a completely useless document, he should be praised and encouraged, otherwise he will go to his boss and complain.
Asking a person on his birthday how old he is is also not worth it.
And if someone is dissatisfied with a colleague, then the colleague will most likely find out about it from the authorities. No one directly reports such things, even the team leader. At least that’s what happened to me.
Perhaps there are really many people in the valley who are not afraid to fail and are ready for it. At least, Yuri Dud and Ilya Strebulaev spoke about this. But in practice, I had a colleague who, in my opinion, was very afraid of failure and intrigued against members of his team. I have a feeling that this is a misunderstood culture of leadership, competition and individualism. At least, it doesn’t look like a team spirit at all. I believe that team spirit is the most important thing for a project. In the end, my colleague lost and was forced to move to another team, much to my relief.
At the beginning of work in a client company, everyone is suitable for an online training about harassment for two to three hours. And also a training about security, which, in particular, says that the name of the client company cannot be mentioned in social networks. On this occasion, they even asked me to remove the video on YouTube, but now my project has ended with them. I think that’s how they protect themselves from social engineering.
How much do you earn?
Contractor salaries are trifling by local standards. I don’t know any contractors who make more than $150K a year. Of course, you have to pay taxes on this. Some turn to tax consultants, some deal with online services. I had difficulty filling out the declaration due to the fact that my wife had not yet moved at the time of filling out the declaration, and she does not have an SSN.
I make less than 150K but was offered this salary by an Indian company. I did not take risks and lose a warm place. Some of my colleagues complain that in Russia they felt much better off and could save more money. Many people leave for these reasons.
On the other hand, college teachers earn the same amount, for example.
Protests
I live in Cupertino and have not seen any particular protests here. Only the boarded-up windows of one of the supermarkets, and then not for long. Another girl with a “Beep if you are against racism” sign and one of the neighbors has “Black Lives Matter” and ACAB signs. Recently I met another neighbor with a cute poster about love.
In Washington, on the fence of the White House, I saw a spontaneous anti-racist exhibition and a lot of police nearby. I also saw spontaneous monuments like the Nemtsov Bridge, dedicated to the murdered African Americans. And at the Russian embassy I saw agitation against amendments to the constitution (I came there to vote).
BLM @ Cupertino
Coronavirus
As you know, the states are in first place in the number of cases of covid and death from it. We have been working from home since March, we wear masks in the store, we keep our distance on the street. To come to the office, you need to measure the temperature and report that you do not have symptoms of SARS. State museums are closed. Movie theaters, basically, too. The beaches are open, and in cafes you can take food with you, or sit on the street, now there are a lot of tables. Public transport runs, you must wear masks in it, even if you are alone in a carriage or bus. At the same time, half of the seats on buses and at airports are not available. After arriving in some places, it is necessary to observe quarantine for 15 days. For example, Hawaii. You can fly from Russia to the States, for example, through Turkey.
After I filled out my tax return, I received a paper check with my name for $1,200 in coronavirus relief. And a week after I cashed it, I received a letter that I had no right to it and should return the money.
upd: Elections
In our village, the intensity of pre-election passions was not noticeable. Near many houses there were signs stuck in the ground for various candidates for the city council and agitation for some proposals for California laws. On the election day, the voting point worked, there was no day off, it was possible to vote by mail and in advance.
Vegan paradise
Santa Cruz, Monterey, and Los Angeles have quite a few vegan cafes and shops. Cupertino doesn’t have one, but regular cafes often have something vegan. For example, curry (sometimes called curry), or burger (impossible food or beyond meat). The canteen at work also had a vegan option every day. Usually Asian or Latin. And cafes are most often Indian or Thai, but there is also a European restaurant. Large chain stores always have a vegan shelf. This is called plant based here. To be honest, I like Moscow and St. Petersburg vegan cafes and shops more.
Crime
Neighborhood watch, No Loitering, No Trespassing signs are quite common here. I assume that they are addressed to the homeless, of which there are indeed many. For the purpose of robbery, my colleague’s glass was broken in the car in the parking lot of the supermarket. And we recently stole a bike near the supermarket.
Apparently, bicycle parking turned out to be a convenient backdoor, which was known to some of the industrialists. She was in an area where there is no video surveillance. Be that as it may, no one is going to eliminate the vulnerability.
At the same time, my neighborhood is rather carefree. Not everyone’s mailboxes are closed, although they can send a credit card, a check, and an SSN (a local analogue of a TIN, which you can get to do some kind of fraud).
Police
Several of my acquaintances were attacked by people with weapons. The police come to the call very quickly if they think that there may be a threat to life. In all other cases, the criminal case is unlikely to be investigated, at least no one will look for a bicycle.
Churches
Cupertino has a wide variety of churches. Most of them are Christian, but belong to a wide variety of communities. There are even Jehovah’s Witnesses. Nobody here considers them sectarians or extremists, unlike Russia. As you know, many of our witnesses are imprisoned or have emigrated.
Cupertino
upd: Details about the drama at work
At the request of readers – details. In general, it so happened that the employee, to whom I was attached at the very beginning, considered me some kind of stupid fool, I don’t know why. He shared this opinion with my project manager (like a team leader), she talked to EPM (also a girl) and then went to the manager of the employing company. She began to ask him to remove Misha somewhere and change him to another contractor, because she doesn’t even know what this Misha is doing. Apparently, it never crossed her mind to discuss this topic with me.
The manager of my company was not a bastard, and said that this is not how things are done, and a week ago Misha suited everyone. So let’s give it another month to work for you, and then we’ll see. At this time, my beautiful colleague stood up for me and everything was settled.
Subsequently, my project manager turned out to be very nice and several times reminded me of the day off, which she herself offered me after (voluntary) processing. And the conclusion is simple: your team leader must definitely know what you are doing, and if he does not know this, then this is your problem, not his. And you should not wait until the opinion of a colleague about you will correct itself, it may be too late. Do not forget about self-presentation and proactivity.
A similar story happened to me at Auto.ru, when it was already a division of Yandex — I was suddenly called into a meeting room, where they said that I was bored in the project and therefore parted with me. Before that, no one had said a bad word to me. Perhaps the team leader was simply uncomfortable to tell that something was wrong. I still don’t think decent companies do that.
How to Reduce or Stop Your Child From Drooling by Chicago Speech Therapy
Depending on your child’s age, drooling can be something that he or she is a temporary side effect and byproduct of teething. If your child has already begun teething and isn’t able to stop from drooling, there are a few things you can do to help him or her exercise the oral muscles and gain control of this area. While your child’s oral function may be underdeveloped, you can still use exercises to enhance and teach oral muscle function.
A Few Practical Tips
Take away the pacifier, or at least reduce the time during which your child is using it. Preferably only allow your child to use it before bed to help put him or her to sleep. Pacifiers may have a poor effect on children’s speech and oral control. However, you do not have to do away with pacifiers altogether; only use it when absolutely necessary to calm down an aggravated child. When you use a pacifier, pair it with a blanket or pillow so it will be easier to wean them off of it later.
Stimulate your child’s oral muscles with an electric toothbrush. This is a popular technique to engage children with oral sensations. Start slow by touching it to the child’s lips and cheeks when it is turned off. Then move to the child’s tongue, gums and teeth. *Note: Do not do this when a child is teething, he or she will most likely not respond well to this.
Upgrade from the bottle to a sippy cup. Bottles have the same ill effects as a pacifier if used for too long. Each step to a new cup further promotes different muscles used in the mouth.
After the sippy cup move on to using a straw. Most children who use straws often solve their drooling issue when this skill is mastered.
Activities to Strengthen the Oral Muscles
Allow your child to learn how to suck, chew and bite on different textures. The straw and sippy cup can aid in teaching your child how to suck. See who can blow the most bubbles, or blow a feather across the table. Teaching him or her to use the mouth in different ways strengthens different oral muscle groups. Encourage playing with food by licking yogurt or applesauce from their lips or off of plates. Picking up cheerios with their mouth and other food play will help them shape their tongue and lips to not only keep the drool in their mouth, but articulate words as well. When they’ve graduated to different foods, give them fruit leather, dried fruit, or breakfast bars to chew on. This will help their oral muscles exercise and grow.
If these techniques have little or no effect on your child’s drooling problem, there may be other variables causing it. If your child is a mouth breather, has restless sleep or chronic sinus congestion, he or she could be suffering from allergies to food or even respiratory problems.
The best decision when you notice something seems wrong is to contact your speech pathologist to perform an assessment. It is better to check and be wrong, than let something continue to fester, undiagnosed.

Is it necessary to kiss children on the lips – sexologist Olga Kareneeva explains | 72.
ru
Olga Kareneeva told how kissing in childhood affects the sexual education of children One of the stages of this development is touching and kissing. T Yumen sexologist Olga Kareneeva tells why she is against kissing children even by their parents. We publish her opinion below.
— Do you kiss children? “Of course! After all, this is my treasure, and through a kiss I show him how much I love him! some say. “No! The lips are an erogenous zone, and when kissing her, the child develops sexuality ahead of time, ”others say. “No, it’s unhygienic. Children’s immunity is not strong enough, and kissing on the lips carries a high risk of infectious diseases, ”say a third.
Of the three options, I choose only hygiene. Touch language is the first language that the baby learned to speak in the womb, so kissing and touching parents is an indispensable part of the healthy development of the child. But let’s look specifically at kissing on the lips.
The child’s body is his personal territory. There are intimate places that they must strictly understand as the personal boundaries of the body. Parents, without realizing it, form a “victim” in the child who cannot manage their personal boundaries and cannot say “no”. And it turns out that the child becomes a passive object in front of adults actively penetrating his territory. This is if we talk about pedophilia, rape and child molestation. But we always think that this happens somewhere in the news and scary stories on the Internet, but this will never happen to us.
I myself saw a girl of 5–6 years old who hugged and kissed someone else’s uncle on the lips in the store just because he gave her something or said something kind. It was an acceptable way for a girl to show warm feelings of gratitude. Mom spread her hands, uncle went nuts, and I imagined that my uncle could actually have an erection…
Let me give you one more argument not in favor of kissing children on the lips. A child between the ages of 3 and 6 begins to explore his sexuality: exploring the difference between boys and girls, showing love to a parent of the opposite sex, then to peers, first interpersonal emotional experiences, and so on. During this period, it is important that parents not only adequately respond to the manifestations of sexuality in their child, but also set certain limits and restrictions.
If kissing on the lips is habitual for a child, he will easily try to kiss other children or adults, and he will not develop a special difference between boys and girls. And at a transitional age, when hormones are, to put it mildly, naughty, a kiss on the lips will not carry any sacred meaning, but will be a natural phenomenon. Well, if you inflate it a lot, then you can imagine that the ease of a kiss in adolescence can already lead to arousal, which will continue with sexual intercourse, which will end in pregnancy, which will become an abortion, which will lead to infertility . .. Creepy, but understandable. ⠀ I think that no matter how much a mother or father loves their child, it is impossible to kiss a child on the lips after a year. A kiss on the lips is the prerogative of adults in love with people of the opposite sex! ⠀ Ask the child if he can be kissed. The child should be comfortable. So that later, in adulthood, he would not recall with horror the slobbering lips of all his relatives, after which he had to dry himself as soon as possible.
Hug, kiss on the top of your head, forehead, cheeks, hands… Think of other places to show your love. In no case should you gently bite or tickle.

A boy with ASD grabbed her hair and tried to hit a classmate. Now the whole school is against him
In one of the Moscow schools, a 12-year-old boy tried to hit a classmate who was teasing him. Fortunately, the teacher intervened in time, and the conflict seemed to fade away.
But when it turned out that the boy had autism, not only the whole class, but the whole school opposed him. Now the parents of other children, and with them the director, demand that the mother remove the uncomfortable child from this class and school.
About the expert
Elena Okhonskaya is a teacher and mother of a young man with autism from St. Petersburg. Applied Behavior Analysis Consultant at the Center for Inclusion and Social Projects “June 1”, member of the Association of Behavior Analysts RusABA.
Has several educations – correctional teacher, psychologist, Montessori teacher. Elena has hundreds of cases of working with children with autism and other developmental disorders, experience in supervising several resource classes, and experience in managing an ABA therapy and inclusion center. Her motto is “What a joy it is to deal with children and not with adults!”
Inclusion is when no one is a victim to anyone
– Is it possible for everyone in an ordinary class to be comfortable, including a child with special needs?
– Yes, of course. Inclusion is when no one is a victim to anyone. No one should sacrifice their interests for the sake of a child with special needs. Conversely, a child with special needs should not sacrifice anything.
No one should suffer, including adults. It should not be that the teacher was alone for 25 children, among whom there is another difficult one. This will not benefit anyone – not the child, not the class, not the parents, not the teacher.
And of course, when we introduce a child with disabilities (disabled health) to school, teachers must be ready: to understand what the student has, how to cope with them and prevent breakdowns. Such a child cannot be restrained. If he could, he wouldn’t be special.
– The mother of a boy – a participant in the conflict was just accused of having a badly brought up child .
– It must be understood that problems with self-regulation of such a child are connected with physiology, and not with education. He has an exhausted nervous system, an altered sensory system – the child deciphers the signals of pain, noise, discomfort in a different way.
Children with disabilities are already at a higher level of stress all the time, because their nervous system cannot cope with the load. Teachers should be aware of this and be able to prevent escalation of workload. Using techniques, you can build the learning process so that everyone is happy.
Yes, such children in the classroom require more resources. And, as a rule, their curriculum does not coincide with general education. They go through the educational material longer, and some parts of the program for a student with disabilities will be held in a different mode, possibly with invited specialists.
What is needed is not a tutor – an assistant in studies, but a moderator of relations
– Where to find such specialists?
– The school must find them, according to the law it is their duty to create adapted learning conditions. This is spelled out in Article 79 of the Law on Education.
Special conditions are prescribed for a child with special needs in any school – for example, he needs a defectologist and a speech therapist. Yes, it is often said that there are no such specialists. There may not be a comprehensive school, but the city budget of the education committee provides funding for the work of such specialists.
If the school cannot take them on staff, it must make an agreement with the rehabilitation center where they are available. The director’s task is to submit a request to the district unit or education committee with a request for additional funding. There are times when directors are not aware of such opportunities.
If nothing has been done, the responsibility passes to the school management, which did not inquire about this issue.
– According to the mother of the boy, a participant in the conflict, the child was denied the services of an individual tutor, explaining that the tutor’s functions include determining the educational route, and not controlling behavior. How legitimate is this?
– In this case, we are talking about socialization. I think that here the child needs not so much a tutor – an assistant in his studies, as a moderator of relations.
One of the teachers, a class teacher or a psychologist can act as such a moderator, but he will definitely need additional help. And we need to work more with the class. It is impossible to put a child with special needs and healthy children on the same bench and hope that they will adjust themselves.
Resource classes work great in a general education school, but only when a lot of time is devoted to preparing the school staff so that there are no such incidents.
Healthy children are easily set up for sympathy and help
– Why is such a conflict situation more typical than unique?
– Bullying is an animal behavior that is also characteristic of humans. Makes you gather in flocks and quarrel with someone who is not like you.
Children are not violent in and of themselves, but they can learn and practice a pattern of abuse if they are exposed to such system settings – for example, in school or, more broadly, by the education system.
There are settings that, on the contrary, allow you to format collisions in a safer way and lead to civilized agreements.
In general, it is easy to tune healthy children to sympathy and help, and then an accepting atmosphere will be created. In classes where these settings are present, we see not only a careful attitude towards special classmates and a willingness to help them, but also a change in the style of communication between normotypical children for the better.
This is not just my observation, there are statistics and studies. One of the effects of inclusion is improved relationships in a normotypical environment. Not only between children, but also between students and teachers, communication becomes more friendly, and in the school teaching staff itself – warmer.
And in educational institutions where these settings are not built in the school policy, such conflicts occur regularly.
“It’s like offering a one-legged one – we’re jumping here, and you’re jumping too”
– Parents of normotypical schoolchildren seek to get rid of uncomfortable children who, from their point of view, can interfere with the educational process. Does that mean they’re doing it for nothing?
– There is a very important social aspect here. The guys who grew up in a well-built inclusive environment are more mature personalities, more adaptive, more secure. They have an arsenal of social skills, including self-help and mutual help.
They know how to deal with emotional overheating – their own and others. They are not afraid of special people, they can help both them and those around them if they do not understand what is happening. In the future, they will not be lost in a socially difficult situation.
– After the conflict, parents of children with disabilities are offered to transfer their child to a class for children with mental retardation. Can’t you agree to this?
– In this case, the family is faced with a dilemma – either adapt to us, be like ordinary children, or leave. It’s just impossible to adapt. It’s like offering a one-legged – we’re jumping here, and you jump too. Or go where everyone is one-legged. This dilemma is completely unethical. Because nobody wins.
If the family chooses the worst conditions, then the child is doomed to poor educational conditions. But those who are on the other side – the teaching staff, the rest of the children in the class – will not receive a very important social experience. Separation never leads to a friendly atmosphere.
According to the law, in practice and in my experience, the school is primarily responsible for setting the communication settings correctly. And, of course, in no case should the level of the child’s program be reduced.
Also, when our schools don’t know what to do with special children, they “drop” them off for home schooling.
Poor development of social skills in the children’s team – a broken fate
– Why is home schooling bad? After all, it often gives even a higher level of education?
– A child with disabilities who is homeschooled loses contact with his peers. I have had occasion to communicate with people with autism with excellent higher education. Despite this, they had the highest level of anxiety and inability to work in one place.
At one time they did not get this experience – immersion in the children’s subculture, where you need to learn how to find friends for yourself, understand who will not be your friend and build a distance, go through moments of teasing, secrets, friendship, loyalty, maybe even betrayal. Pass and survive.
It is like a necessary inoculation for the future life, without it a person is not able to control his social relations. For him, those around him are extremely unpredictable, as there was little practice.
The lack of social skills in the children’s team is a broken fate. Adults, from an ethical point of view, are simply obliged to provide the child with this part of life at this particular age. And this is just about competent inclusion.
Be patient, we form humanity in your children
– If parents of other children oppose a child with special needs in the class, what should be done?
– I understand very well parents who, for various reasons, do not want special children to study with their children. They just don’t know how it will be. They also need to be enlightened – fears, myths, prejudices like “my child will adopt bad habits” or “here the slobber sits and will pull the class back” should be removed.
Parents need to be convinced that their children’s education will not suffer, and not to talk to them only in the spirit of “be patient, we are developing humanity in your children.” All children will learn at the level of complexity that they are supposed to, inclusive methods allow this.
– It turns out that when defending the rights of children with disabilities, it is much more productive for parents not to force the school to provide services, but to show what the school will receive with such a child?
– Even among healthy children no two are alike, and there are difficulties of their own. And now there are many children who are conditionally healthy with behavioral difficulties. So in the end, teachers with similar experience and competencies will find it easier not only with special children, but also with ordinary children.
