Past Perfect and Non-Continuous Verbs in English and the Octopus
Past Perfect and Non-Continuous Verbs in English and the Octopus The other day, I was teaching an English class, when a student said something like:Today has been the first day that my children went to school alone.I corrected him, saying that it should be, Today was the first day that my children went to school alone.Why? He asked. I tried to get away with the reasoning that the first instance just sounds really bad, and no native English speaker would ever say it that way. This student is tenacious and inquisitive, however (hes probably looking up tenacious right now).We continued talking about it, and the fact that these sentences are possible:This has been the first time a man has walked on the moon.Today has been a terrible day.So what makes Today has been the first time wrong?Accept the octopus as a pet, or follow this guide to English present perfect usage.I couldnt figure it out during the class, and told the student Id get back to him on the reason. In exchange, he gave me a handy new Spanish phrase that translates to something like, Im g oing to have to accept the octopus as a house pet. This is a great way of saying that, as ridiculous as something seems, youre going to have to take someones word for it (remember, its a Spanish phrase).So, I discussed it with my wife, thought about it, and did some reading. Turns out that has been is a Non-Continuous verb in a perfect tense. What does that mean?A Non-Continuous verb refers to an abstract idea, usually something you cannot see. Been is the past participle of To Be, one of the most abstract verbs there is. In the Past Perfect tense, it looks like this:I have been | We have beenYou have been | They have beenHe/She/It has beenIn the Past Perfect, non-continuous verbs tell us that something started in the past and continued up until now.Examples: Your octopus has been in the house for two weeks.The octopus has been attacking the dog for ten minutes.This octopus has been eating the neighbors cats.So, this octopus has been causing problems that have continued at least unt il the moment the sentences were written. However, when my students children when to school for their first time, the action began and ended, essentially, when it started.But, I can already hear my student asking, why is it OK to say This has been the first time.'Heres what Ill say, although I cant find any texts to back me up. If someone is saying This has been the first time my children have walked to school alone, the context, for it to be correct, would have to be two people talking about it as it is happening. In other words, the action of them going to school for the first time is still happening as the sentence is being said. Still, it doesnt sound quite right. If in doubt, I recommend using the simple tense.Online English Classes | Cursos de Inglés | Aulas de Inglês

Meet the teacher ESL Instructor, Stephanie, in Chiba, Japan
Meet the teacher ESL Instructor, Stephanie, in Chiba, Japan Stephanie, an ESL teacher from Maryland, began her Teach Away placement at the Berlitz Japan Inc. school in Chiba, Japan, teaching English about four months ago. We caught up with her to learn how sheâs enjoying her teaching abroad experience so far, and see whether she has any advice for others who are interested in teaching in Japan. What initially interested you in teaching abroad? I've always desired the experience of living abroad in another country for cultural immersion and exploration, and also to learn more about myself, including my strengths and weaknesses. ESL seemed like an attractive option because it allows me to work directly with individuals living in Tokyo, and also exposes me to Japanese culture in a more authentic way. Why did you decide on Japan? Honestly, I was open to going to virtually anywhere around the world. My application with Berlitz moved quickly, and I accepted their offer and decided to give Japan a try! Did you have any concerns before you left? One of the major concerns I had about leaving America to teach abroad was leaving my friends behind. I had been living in D.C. for a long time, and grew comfortable there, but knew I wanted a life change. Another concern I had was about securing housing abroad before I left. This one was a challenge for me, as I had to be flexible and revise my housing situation once I got to Japan, but it all worked out in the end. Describe the school that you teach at and what a typical workday looks like for you. The school I teach at is a private language center where students attend according to their desired schedule. Class sizes are mostly small, either one-on-one or with a few students at most. This individualized or small group setting gives students more attentive teaching time and allows me to focus more individually on their learning needs. I tend to work the afternoons and late evenings during the week, and full days on the weekends. Typically, I learn who I will be teaching for the day when I arrive at the school for work, and the students vary everyday. Weekends tend to be the most busy as clients often have the most availability over those two days. What have you learned about life in Japan from your teaching experience? Japan is a country that greatly values its cultural identity, traditions, and customs. The people here are respectful, courteous, hierarchical, and disciplined. Due to small living spaces, people are economical and aware of their surroundings and how they affect them. Public transit is safe and convenient, and many people walk or bike everywhere, which is refreshing! What is youf favourite meal that you've had? I am a fan of Japanese comfort foods. I love Oyako-don, which is a traditional sweet and savory chicken, egg, and rice bowl dish. Also, freshly made ramen soup (not the freeze-dried type!) in Japan is always delicious. The noodles are slightly al dente, which makes it fun to eat and slurp. Slurping your ramen is considered good manners in Japan as it is a sign that you enjoy your food. What's your neighborhood like? I live in a quiet residential neighborhood with convenient access to the city, where I work. I'm just a quick 10 - 12 minute walk to the local subway station and everything that I need is close by. Where would you like to go next? I am open to many places. We'll see what happens! Do you have any tips for teachers who are looking to apply to teach abroad? Be flexible and adaptable regardless of where you go. There are natural ups and downs during the adjustment process, but just remember to be yourself and do things you enjoy to help you feel grounded! Inspired by Stephanie's experience? Take a look at our current teaching jobs in Japan here.

What Students Love About Taking Online Classes
What Students Love About Taking Online Classes via Pexels Online classes are flexible. One thing that many college students probably dislike about traditional, in-person classes is that theyâre inflexible. Whether you have a Monday-Wednesday class, a Tuesday-Thursday class, or what have you, there is usually a specific schedule you need to follow and you must attend the class in person. By contrast, online classes are much more flexible. They donât require you to attend class at a particular time, which means you have the opportunity to do your work whenever you see fit. Of course, this comes with a possible disadvantage if you arenât the best at managing your time. However, if you are efficient at managing your own schedule and getting your assignments and studying done in a timely manner, then online classes are a great option for you. Whatâs more, if your entire program is online (e.g., if youâre pursuing an online masterâs degree), this affords you a lot more flexibility than if youâre attending traditional university classes. Especially if you happen to have a part-time or even full-time job at the same time, you will be able to get your work done for your online classes on your own time whether in the evenings when you come home from work, in the mornings before work, on the weekends, and any time in between.

After all, the costs of a college education definitely add up when you consider expenses for not only class credits, but also perhaps on-campus housing, textbooks, meal plans, and other fees. When it comes to online classes, however, you donât have to worry about all those extra expenses. Youâll just be paying for your course credits AKA, only what you want to pay for which will save you a lot of money in the long run (and not only when it comes to school fees, but also for other expenses such as gas money, since you wonât need to be commuting back and forth all the time). As a result, online classes may be a good way to go if youâre looking to go down a more affordable route. You may be able to easily access your textbooks.
