Tennis Tutor - Getting a Tennis Coach Remote Control

Tennis Tutor - Getting a Tennis Coach Remote ControlIf you are considering getting a tennis tutor model 3 with remote control, it is a good idea to read this article. Not all models of tennis reels are alike, but if you want a good idea of how to choose the right model, you will find this helpful. Your local sporting goods store should be able to help you with your purchase.There are two models available that come with a remote control. The first one is a standard model, where you push a button and the remote has a button on it that you push to begin the motion. The second one is called the trainer model, where the remote has buttons on it that you press to do a number of different things. Each one is slightly different in how it works.One of the major differences between the standard and trainer models is that the remote is different between them. The trainer has a button where you can easily position yourself in the game so that you can see the ball well and also make accurate cont act with the ball. You will find that the remote that comes with the trainer model is slightly harder to use than the remote that comes with the standard model.One of the biggest differences between the trainer and the remote control is the angle of the ball. Many people have the trainer at a 45 degree angle because it is easier to do. In order to use the remote effectively, you need to position yourself at a 60 degree angle.The difference between the standard and trainer models is most apparent when it comes to the feature that the latter has. If you are looking for a tennis guide to help you learn the sport, then you will want to consider getting the trainer model.As you become more experienced, you will be able to use the other features as well. You can switch over to the standard model anytime, as you will soon realize that it is more than just an interactive book. It is an entirely new form of learning about the sport that can give you some very valuable information about your own game.When you are getting a tennis tutor model 3 with remote control, you want to make sure that you can make the most of the remote. If you don't like using the buttons, then you will probably find the user interface a bit cumbersome. Use this information as a guide to help you find the model that is right for you.

Lexies Language Challenge Review (and a chance to win even more ITC!)

Lexies Language Challenge Review (and a chance to win even more ITC!) I did it!  I finished the Challenge! 20 hours of French in 6 weeks! It wasnt easy!  But I did it!  After my very last lesson, I wanted to sit back and reflect upon what I had actually accomplished.  20 hours is no small feat but  like I mentioned in my Week 5 post, as long as you stick to your plan (3 to 4 lessons per week), finishing 20 sessions in 6 weeks actually is not difficult at all! One thing that I wanted to do was actually confirm whether my French had actually improved or not.  I felt it did because I no longer felt nervous or afraid of speaking French but I really didnt have any conclusive proof that it had.  Then I remembered, I made a Public Video Pledge where I spoke some French at the beginning if the Challenge.  As I was making my final video, I decided to edit in my before video of my attempts to speak French and found out that the difference was remarkable. Watch below and judge for yourself! Create a Challenge Review Video and win 300ITC!

Introduce yourself and what language(s) were your learning in the Challenge? Tell us about your italki teacher(s)? What was good about your teacher(s)? What did you learn about learning a new language after completing the Challenge? Do you have any advice for people who are thinking of taking the Challenge in the future? Include some BEFORE footage from your Public Video Pledge (for those of you who made a Public Video Pledge) Repeat the above in the language learned in the Challenge Label the video: “(italki username) completed the 2014 italki New Year’s Language Challenge!” Write a Notebook Entry “I completed the 2014 italki New Years Language Challenge and paste the YouTube/Youku URL. Send the link to your notebook entry to support @ italki.com and youll be entered in a content where you can win 300ITC!  The real reward is the fact that you finished the Challenge after 6 weeks of hard work!  This video simply commemorates that achievement! ** Please note that we would like to use these stories and videos to help  motivate others and let them know it’s not that hard to improve a language in just 6 weeks!

Constructing the Perfect Thank-You Note

Constructing the Perfect Thank-You Note Image via pexels.com Show your gratitude and be genuine about it.   Showing your thanks in a thank-you note goes without saying, but its important to show how grateful you are for the opportunity given to you, even if it was just for the single interview. Being courteous, even over an email, translates well on your character and as a potential employee in the eyes of employers. You dont want to leave the thank-you note at a simple Thank you for your time, but you also dont want to fill the email with desperation or flattery. Express your appreciation for the opportunity and the persons time, what you enjoyed out of the interview, and your continued interest in the job/internship position. These three points  are effective in getting your gratitude across without making it seem forced. Be as specific as possible by referring back to the interview.   A simple Thank you for your time and this opportunity wont do; make the thank-you more personal by referencing points of interest that came up during the interview for the job or internship. If a big chunk of the interview was spent on a certain topic, such as a problem the company is facing and how you could help the company work through it, bring your potential employers attention back to it. By including specific points brought up during the interview, you are directly showing how much you paid attention during the interview and how interested you are by remembering the specifics. Making the thank-you note more specific to the interview will make it less generic, showing your interviewer that you are more genuine about your gratitude than a simple copy-and-paste thank-you note would. Be prompt with your thank-you note.   The purpose of a thank-you note is to both show your gratitude and put the interviewers attention back on you as a potential employee. You dont want to send a thank-you note after a week has passed; it makes the thank-you note near pointless. In that week, an employer could have already forgotten about their time with you, or worse, have already made their hiring decisions. Its best to send your thank-you note within the 24 hour period following the interview for your job or internship position. The shorter the time between sending your thank-you note and the actual interview, the fresher you and your potential will be to the interviewer. With the interview fresh in their mind, the interviewer will be able to tie the thank-you note to your face rather than just another job/internship applicant. Proofread the thank-you note more than once.   Even in your haste to send out a thank-you note, you should spend just as much time proof-reading for any mistakes as you did to type it out. There is no point in sending a thank-you note filled with grammatical errors; sending a thank-you note that lacks coherency or proper grammar will not help your chances of getting hired. Imagine applying for an internship where many of your duties revolve around sending emails or editing documents  but sending your potential employer a thank-you note lacking proper grammar. It can set back any advances made during the interview and lower your qualifications in the eyes of the employers. Sell yourself one last time. Take the opportunity that the thank-you note gives include anything that boosts your potential in the eyes of the interviewer that you may have forgotten to mention in the interview. In the moment, interviews are filled with nerves and youre bound to leave out at least one thing you actually planned on mentioning. Maybe you did mention it during the interview, but you were too nervous to fully articulate the point. Writing out a thank-you note gives you the opportunity to sell your potential one last time, and the opportunity to think out how to do so concisely and eloquently. Some ways to go about this are to bring up past experiences that will enable you to help the company if you were to be hired, or how your specific collection of skills will help you  contribute to the company. Be confident in your ability to fill the position and how you are personally qualified to do so.
