Innovative Ideas for Teaching English

  Rohit Pithauria    | INDIA TODAY ASPIRE In the world of global citizens and the ever-growing competition in the job arena, it gets imperative to be equipped with an education that has enough teeth to make you climb the ladder of success. Many students opt for an education abroad that not only comes with a brand value but also provides exposure to the foreign education system and industry mechanisms. The process of choosing a course and a college is long-drawn and requires comprehensive planning. The first step requires making an informed decision about the course one decides to pursue. Students should not get swayed by the popular choices and follow the decision of others and their career path.  You must consider your future educational or professional goals and personal interest before zeroing in on a course.

By Mark Dummett, BBC News, Haridwar The key to healthy living, according to Baba Ramdev, is knowing how to breathe. It is a simple message that has won the yoga teacher, or guru, from a poor north Indian background, fame, fortune, an extraordinary self-confidence, his very own Scottish island, and a platform for some strong and controversial opinions. He has now embarked on a campaign against corruption, the big issue in India at the moment, and he says he will launch his own political movement in June to contest the next election. He may not stand much of a chance of actually winning anything, but as I discovered on my trip to his headquarters near the Hindu holy town of Haridwar, he is not a man to ignore. He claims to keep no personal wealth for himself, but the organisation he runs is hugely rich. Baba Ramdev's base, immaculately clean, decorated with ornamental trees and filled with piped religious chanting, is spread over 500 acres. It is home to a university, a...

हर वर्ष हम नववर्ष की शुरुआत दूसरों को खुशी और समद्धि की शुभ कामनाएं देकर करते हैं। समृद्धि का सही लक्षण क्या है ? समृद्धि का लक्षण मुसकराहट है। समृद्धि का लक्षण संतोष है। समृद्धि का चिह्न है- मुक्ति , मुस्कान तथा जो कुछ भी अपने पास हो , उसे निर्भय होकर आसपास के लोगों के साथ बांटने की मन:स्थिति। समृद्धि का लक्षण यह आस्था और आत्मविश्वास है कि जो कुछ भी मेरी आवश्यकता है वह मुझे मिल जाएगा। 2011 का स्वागत एक वास्तविक मुसकराहट के साथ करें , एक ऐसी मुसकराहट , जो भीतर से हो। कैलेंडर के पन्ने पलटने के साथ-साथ हम अपने मन के पन्नों को भी पलटते जाएं। प्राय: हमारी डायरी स्मृतियों से भरी हुई होती है। आप देखें कि आपके भविष्य के पन्ने बीती हुई घटनाओं से न भर जाएं। बीते हुए समय से कुछ सीखें , कुछ भूलें और आगे बढ़ें। आप लोभ , घृणा , द्वेष तथा ऐसे अन्य सभी दोषों से मुक्त होने की कोशिशकरें। यदि मन इन सभी नकारात्मकताओं में लिप्त है , तो वह खुश नहीं रह सकता। समझें कि नकारात्मक भावनाएं भूतकाल की वजह से हैं। वर्तमान जीवन के अनुभव को आपका भूतकाल नष्ट न करने पाए। बीते हुए समय को क्षमा नहीं कर ...

You might be a self-motivated worker and even a team player, but writing these on your resume does more harm than good to your chances of getting a job. There are five popular catch phrases that should never make it into your resume, reports CBS News . Talking on The Early Show on Saturday Morning , career adviser Liz Ryan, CEO of AskLizRyan.com , spotlighted the things you shouldn't call yourself on a resume - at least, not without backing up the description with concrete examples. In fact, she said that those examples could speak for themselves, without your actually using the terms you should avoid. Ryan said that the underlying idea in writing a resume is to stand out, and using terms everyone else does hardly accomplishes that. Revealing some of the typical or cliche phrases used in resumes, Ryan said: "'Results oriented professional' is probably the biggest one used, and it's meaningless!
