The main difference between it and electric guitars, folk guitars, and electro-acoustic guitars is that the strings are nylon. Classical guitars play quite differently to folk guitars. (Source: josealbafotos)The three highest-pitched strings are made of nylon while the three lowest strings are made of nylon wrapped in metal. Similarly, there are 12 playable frets on the neck.The neck of a classical guitar is thicker than that of a folk guitar and there’s more space between the strings so your fingers will be farther apart when playing.Classical guitars are often also known as Spanish guitars.Why Spanish?Because the classical guitar was invented in Spain and is designed with flamenco music in mind.  Flamenco guitars are very similar to classical guitars but they have a thinner and lighter neck.  The sound is also very different. An Andalusian flamenco or gipsy guitar will have a brighter sound than a classical guitar with a sound that approaches that of a folk guitar.The strings are also very close to the fretboard which allows the guitarist to quickly move around the neck.  A lot of guitarists play classic al guitars as soloists and there are plenty of musical genres that can be played with these types of guitar.These acoustic guitars were invented at the dawn of the 19th century.Find out more about playing the guitar.What Is a Folk Guitar?A folk guitar is usually larger than a classical guitar and has six metal strings. The higher strings are often made of steel while the lower strings are wrapped in bronze. Folk guitars sound different from classical guitars. (Source: delahaye)The neck, unlike a classical guitar, has 14 playable frets. There are 7 more frets on the body.  Folk guitars have a thinner neck than classical guitars and are usually easier to play.On the other hand, this type of guitar is still quite difficult to play for beginners. After all, metal strings can hurt your fingers if you haven’t developed callouses.Folk guitars are acoustic and include several different types of guitar:Dreadnought guitarsJumbo guitarsElectro-acoustic guitarsManouche guitarsDreadnoughts are huge, imposing guitars with a big sound.  They’re often sold to beginners.Jumbo guitars are rounder with richer bass tones.Electro-acoustics are folk guitars with mics or pickups allowing you to plug them into an amp.  You can use them to play acoustic guitar at home and perform on stage with a PA system or amp.  The steel strings are good for contemporary music like pop and rock. It should be noted that t he strings provide a different sound to classical guitars.You can get different sound boxes, necks, and bridges can all provide different sounds on folk guitars.The Differences Between Different GuitarsIf you’ve never played the guitar before, you might struggle to tell the sound of two guitars apart. You’ll soon get the hang of it. Different guitars are suited to different types of music. (Source: analogicus)Each instrument has a different sound. The differences between classical and folk guitars will help you decide on which is the best for you to buy.  They can affect the comfort, playability, sound, and look of the instrument.A more experienced guitarist might even take the wood of the body and neck into account. The tone of mahogany is different from spruce and a rosewood fingerboard feels different from a maple fretboard.The NeckA classical guitar has 19 frets with 7 of them on the body. Its neck is shorter than a folk guitar.  The width of the frets makes finger placement easier, especially for beginners.A folk guitar neck, on the other hand, has 21 frets and is longer from bridge to nut.  Its neck is closer to an electric guitar’s neck than a classical guitar’s neck. There are more playable frets than on a classical or flamenco guitar. This makes them better for beginners to play.I recommend you opt for a cutaway guitar as you’ll have more accessible frets. This allows you to play the 15th to 21st frets on the guitar.The StringsThe strings on a classical guitar are made of nylon. They’re more flexible and easier on your fingers than metal strings and are recommended for beginners.  Nylon strings offer more nuance to players as you get more control over them when playing your guitar.Folk guitars have metal strings.  They can hurt your fingers if you don’t haven’t developed callouses yet.  Folk, jazz, or electro-acoustic guitars are often played with a plectrum and used for rock, pop, gipsy jazz, or blues music.Learn about the different ways to hold a guitar.Which Instrument Should You Choose to Start Playing the Guitar?So how can you choose the right guitar for the style of music you want to play?The first things to consider when buying a guitar:ComfortValue for moneyThe type of music you want to play (classical, flamenco, rock, pop, jazz, blues, etc.)Physical fitnessThe techniques you’ll be using (picking, strumming, fingerpicking, etc.)The soundWhether or not you’ll be using an amp. Think carefully about the type of music you're going to play and how you're going to play before you get your guitar. (Source: agnessatalalaev0)You should choose an entry-level guitar if you’re just starting to play. There’s no point in getting an expensive Ibanez or Gibson thinking you’ll immediately be able to play like Hendrix or Pink Floyd.In terms of sound, you can play also any type of music with these two main types of guitar.  You need to remember that classical guitars have a softer sound.  They’re good for flamenco, classical music, tango, and bossa nova.The sound of a folk guitar is more percussive. It’s better for barre chords and music like rock, blues, country, pop, manouche, etc.  At the very beginning, it can seem easier to play than a classical guitar.To learn which guitar you should get, we recommend that you go to a music store.You need to feel comfortable with the neck and the size of the body. Similarly, the body shape can affect the playability, especi ally when you're sitting down. There's a big difference between sitting with a Fender Stratocaster to a Gibson Flying V, for example.You also need to think about the weight of the instrument, especially for younger guitarists.Don't forget to keep your guitar clean.Have you chosen your guitar?Next, you can look at the wood used, the length of the neck, and the music you want to play with it.If you'd like to learn more about how to play the guitar, there are plenty of useful resources online. You can find tablature sites to show you how to play certain songs as well as video tutorials on sites like YouTube. However, if you prefer to be taught how to play, you should consider getting in touch with one of the many talented and experienced guitar tutors on Superprof.There are three types of guitar tutorial available: face-to-face, online, and group. Each of these come with their pros and cons and it's really up to you to choose which one works best with your learning style and your budge t.Generally speaking, face-to-face tutorials are the most effective as they're just between you and your tutor. Your tutor can focus all their time and energy on you during the tutorial and also plan the tutorials with you in mind. However, this bespoke service comes at a cost and while guitar tutors don't tend to charge a fortune, face-to-face tutorials are usually the most costly type of tutorial available.Online tutorials are similar to face-to-face tutorials in the respect that they're just between the tutor and the student but their main difference is that the tutor won't be there with you in the room. Instead, they'll be teaching you remotely via webcam and video conferencing software. While these types of tutorials tend to be cheaper than face-to-face tutorials, they do have the disadvantage of not being as effective for hands-on subjects.Finally, there are group tutorials. With several students in a single tutorial, you won't get as much one-on-one time with your tutor and t here's no guarantee that the tutorials will be tailored to you; there are other students that need to be taught, after all. With all the students footing the bill, these tutorials tend to work out the cheapest per student per hour.

Getting Around Marrakech

Getting Around Marrakech Transport in Marrakech ChaptersTaxis in MarrakechBuses in MarrakechRenting Cars in MarrakechGetting Around Marrakech in a CarriageWalking Around MarrakechOther Transportation in Marrakech“If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.” - Lewis CarrollBe it Casablanca, Tangier, Agadir, Ouarzazate, or Marrakech (or Marrakesh), millions of tourists are discovering Moroccan culture each year. Tourism is an important contributor to the Moroccan economy. In 2017, 532,000 people worked in the tourism sector. Similarly, the transport sector is recruiting.  To get travellers around the country, transport companies have also developed.So how can you get around Marrakech, one of Morocco’s most popular cities?From the airport to the souks in the city centre via the Palmeraie, there are plenty of ways to get around the city. Be it on a camel, in a bus, shuttles, etc. you’ll need to think about the best mode of transport for getting where you’re going.Ready to go?

But to get from A to B, taxis are the most recommended type of transport. From the new town to the Atlas Mountains, taxis provide a valuable service. Taxis in Marrakech are so affordable that you can use them to travel all over the city. (Source: hichamaarkoubi)Unlike taxis in the UK, the taxis in Marrakech are cheap. You can get around town for just a couple of quid. But before you get in a taxi, make sure they have a meter and that it’s running when your journey begins. This is the best way to ensure that you’ll get a fair price. Similarly, make sure you ask how much it’ll cost for the journey and nicely ask the driver to start the meter.There are two types of taxis in Marrakech. There are small or big taxis.The small taxis are beige. Generally, a driver can accept two or three passengers. Any more than that and you’ll need to look for a bigger cab. A typical trip will cost between 10 and 20 Dirhams (around £1 or £2) but the minimum price will never be less than 6 Dirhams. You also need to know that the cost of the trip is increased by around £1 in the evenings. These small taxis are a practical way of getting around Marrakech.To get out of the city and visit the Majorelle Gardens or the Palmeraie, you’ll need to opt for bigger taxis.  You can often find these bigger taxis waiting for passengers at the airport or outside hotels and they’re looking to pick up tourists. They don’t have a meter so you’ll need to negotiate your price before getting in. Similarly, the drivers are immediately going to have an idea of your budget based on whether you give them directions to luxury hotels, boutique hotels, hostels, or a guesthouse so you might want to check rates and the lowest prices to get into the city before telling them exactly which hotel in Marrakech you want to go to.Before you know it, you can be enjoying mint tea and some Moroccan cuisine on a roof terrace with a view of a beautiful minaret but keep in mind that you can’t expect the same rates as with the small taxis. However, the bigger taxis can take you outside of the city to places like the Agafay Desert and the Ouzoud Falls or a nother city like Essaouira, for example. Since these taxis can take up to six people, they’re good for taking larger groups out of the city.  For example, a trip from the airport to the city centre will cost around £10. If the driver suggests more, refuse and try to negotiate.If you have any problems with a taxi driver while in Marrakech, you can always get in touch with the Tourist Police and in some cases, the mere mention of them will sort out any conflicts.Find out more about visiting Marrakech.Buses in MarrakechThe buses in Marrakech aren’t great for tourists since taking the bus is quite complicated. While there are bus stops, they’re not very well indicated and it’s very easy to get lost. This is why most tourists opt for taxis or walking around Medina. Other than the sightseeing bus, we wouldn't recommend getting the bus around Marrakech; you rarely have any idea where they're going. (Source: GregMontani)If you want to take the bus, it’s cheap. There are around 30 different routes and a ticket will cost you around 30p.  Most of the stops can be found near Jemma el-Fna. Lines 1, 3, and 8 go to the bus station and train station.The Ikhlass Card is a good idea for those spending a few days in Marrakech. It costs around £5 and can be topped up with a balance to be used for bus journeys. These trips cost less and paying for individual bus tickets.Just like most other touristy cities, there’s also the bus tour. This bus can be used to see all of Marrakech’s tourist sites for around £10 a ticket. You can get on and off the bus as you please throughout the day.Find out more about the cost of visiting Marrakech.

The freedom of being able to go wherever you want without having to wait for public transport is the biggest advantage.Renting a car from a local company tends to be the cheapest and you can pay between £10 and £25 a day, not including insurance. With insurance, this can add up to around £30 to £40. If you decide to go with an international care rental company, you’ll find the prices are more expensive and you’ll be paying closer to £60 a day for a comfortable car.However, driving in Marrakech is no picnic. You can’t drive in Medina, which is why most tourists walk around the neighbourhood and driving in Morocco isn’t like driving in the UK. If you’re not used to it, you can quickly have problems with scooters nipping all over the place.On the other hand, renting a car could be a great way to visit outside of Marrakech. However, you can always do a day trip to other cities like Agdal or Rabat or trips to the High Atlas Mountains, the Sahara Desert with a travel guide rather than driving around yourself.Check for the best Arabic courses here.Getting Around Marrakech in a CarriageCarriages are an unusual way to get around Marrakech. You'll see them in front of a lot of big hotels and they’re an interesting way to see the city. The horse-drawn carriages are an interesting way to travel around the city. (Source: ggulik)Unlike the small taxis with their meters, you can negotiate a price for a ride around in these carriages. You can get a short trip to Medina for around £2 or £3. Generally speaking, you should expect to pay between £7 and £10 an hour. If you plan to ride around in a carriage for a few hours, it’s easier to negotiate a lower rate. Carriages are a good way to travel around the Palmeraie or the city walls. This way, your feet won’t get tired and you can get the most out of the countryside.Walking Around MarrakechTravelling by taxi to your destination and then walking around is one of the best ways to discover Marrakech, the hustle and bustle, the Berber and Moorish influence and architecture, and the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Since cars aren’t allowed in the historic centre of Marrakech, you need to walk around Medina.However, there are always 2-wheeled vehicles driving around. Walkin g around is a great way to find new places and interesting side streets which will probably happen because it’s almost impossible to find an accurate map of Medina. In some parts of the city, it's a good idea to just walk. (Source: Jonny_Joka)If you get lost, you’ll have to ask the local merchants where you need to go. You can also ask passers-by but they won’t necessarily be from there and some people will probably ask you for money in exchange for help.Enjoy a souk, kasbah, terraces, tombs, palaces, Moroccan style architecture, some nice couscous, while walking around the city. It's the best way to get the most of the city. There are apps and maps you can use to get around the city without too many problems. The app Maps.me is useful because you can use it offline.If you're looking for accommodation and hotels in Marrakech, be it a luxury hotel, boutique hotel, rooms and suites in the Four Seasons Resort, find out more about places to stay in the city.Other Transportation in MarrakechWalking or taking a taxi aren’t the only ways to get around Marrakech. Here are a few other ways you can effectively travel around the city.Renting BikesTo discover Medina, there are bikes you can use to easily cycle around the old city. There are cycle lanes in certain parts of the city. To rent a bike, you’ll need to pay between £8 and £10 for the day. Avoid cycling too far out of the city centre.Tuk TuksThis Asian style of transport is quite common in Medina. A driver will take you from one end of the neighbourhood to the other if you’re sick of walking.So are you ready for a little tour of the city?

Confused by a section on the spring 2014 SAT

Confused by a section on the spring 2014 SAT If your student took the SAT recently, he or she may have noticed that one section on the test seemed very different from the others.  This section may have included  math, reading, or grammar content in a different format from the rest of the SAT.  For instance, the reading section might have asked the student to justify his answers, or the grammar section possibly included longer paragraphs with underlined phrases or sentences that needed editing.We wanted to respond to some parents concerns and let you know that  these SAT sections were most likely experimental.   Each SAT includes one experimental section which doesnt count towards students scores and is used by the College Board to gather data on students responses to the problems.  In the past, the experimental section has had the same format as the rest of the test, so test-takers havent been able to tell which section is experimental.  However, now that the College Board has announced the redesigned SAT to be released in spring 2016, it appears that new question formats are being tested on the experimental sections of current SATs.Its important for students to realize that any section on the SAT with a drastically different question format they havent encountered before likely will  not  count toward their score on the test.  Of course, we encourage students to take every section seriously and not to try to guess which section is experimental.  But its almost certainly the case that  an unusual section will not affect their score, and students shouldnt let it distract them from a strong performance on the rest of the test.The redesigned SAT will first be administered in the spring of 2016, so it will primarily affect current rising sophomores and younger students.  For more information about the SAT redesign and sample problems, please take a look at the College Boards site  Delivering Opportunity.Rest assured that AJ Tutoring is staying abreast of the latest updates on the SAT, and well be upda ting our materials to reflect the changes to the test in 2016.  Were currently monitoring the College Boards SAT information releases, and our directors and tutors are taking the actual SAT to preview the upcoming changes.  Well keep you updated on the SAT redesign as more information becomes available, but for the next academic year (2014-15), the SAT will keep the same format.If you have any questions about the experimental section or the SAT redesign, or if your student would like help reviewing for the fall SAT or ACT, please reach out to us at (650) 331-3251 or via email at info@ajtutoring.com.

Five Student Participation Tips

Five Student Participation Tips If theres one thing all teachers feel would make their jobs easier, it is student participation. Your job is to engage your students in learning, after all. That task is much easier when they are willing to share their ideas and ask questions. How can you get more students to participate? Here are a few tips: Set the expectation. If you havent already, let your students know that you expect them to contribute to the class dialogue. You can certainly make participation part of their grades, but express your desire that they ask questions and offer their input and ideas. Get to know your students as individuals. The more you know about your students and their learning styles, interests, and motivations, the easier it is for you to get them involved and excited in class. Use technology. Todays generation of students is accustomed to using digital tools and apps to augment their learning. They expect that their teachers will integrate those things into their educational experience. Lecture only when you have to. The more you talk at your students, the less involved they feel in the learning experience. Try cooperative learning techniques that get students participating, or flip your classroom and do activities in the classroom (vs. having students do them on their own at home). Break students into groups. Some students are more likely to open up to their peers. Small group work is a more comfortable setting for some students who feel intimidated speaking up in front of you and all of their classmates. You set the tone for good participation in your class, so keep working on it. When you cultivate this type of environment, your students benefit greatly from that positive energy and encouragement.

How to cope with exam stress

How to cope with exam stress There is no getting away from it - exams are stressful. They involve hours of revision and studying and can leave you feeling exhausted and stressed to the hilt. Just one reason why you need to learn how to manage what you are feeling and find ways to cope. While a certain amount of exam stress is healthy (and even good for studying) it's very easy for small worries to spiral and become overwhelming. If you are experiencing any of the following you need to take action. 1. Crying because you are worried about failing 2. Finding it hard to sleep or focus due to anxiety 3. Feeling unwell with headaches 4. Not eating or overeating to cope with stress 5. Not able to think about anything but exams 6. Feeling high levels of anxiety Strategy one: talk to someone Friends are great, but sometimes they can make you feel worse, which is why a tutor or teacher needs to be your first port of call. Unlike your peers, they will be able to put your fears into perspective and help you to tackle the areas that are stressing you out the most. Common areas a tutor can advise on: 1. A revision plan or lack of it 2. Fear of failure 3. Exam nerves 4. Anxiety about taking the exam Strategy two: relaxation techniques Knowing how to handle your stress with proven techniques can also help you to feel more in control. Award-winning apps like Headspace and Calm can help you to switch off and manage your anxiety via breathing and mindfulness techniques. A good routine around revision, with breaks, will also help. Make sure you have a break every hour and that you stop revising at least an hour before bed. This way, you have time for your brain to unwind and relax before bed. Finally, get at least 7 hours of sleep each night. Rest is a powerful mechanism for both remembering information and lowering your stress levels. Too much or too little sleep will have the opposite effect. Strategy three: tackle your stress/study trigger points There will always be certain aspects of exams that will cause you more stress than others. Talk through what's bothering you the most so you can tackle this head-on and lower your stress levels. If it's lack of revision, talk to a tutor/teacher about where your knowledge gaps are and the most effective way you can catch up. If you are worried about forgetting everything on the day, work with past papers, so you feel comfortable with how exam questions are asked and graded. If you are worried that nerves will get the better of you trust yourself. When we get nervous, we all doubt ourselves and begin to question even the most obvious answers. If this happens, give your mind a few minutes to absorb the information before you answer. Finally remember you are not alone. Many students feel a considerable amount of stress when it comes to exams. The key to remember is that exams, as vital as they are, are just one of the stepping stones you need to get to your goals. For more on revision and exams see our blog posts on revision, GCSEs, mocks and more.
