How to Write University Application Essay - Learn How to Write a Good EssayIf you are applying for a university in the UK, there are a few things you should know about how to write university application essays. Writing this type of essay is no easy task and requires considerable time and patience. But if you follow the right steps, it can be well worth the effort.Before you begin to write a piece on a particular subject, you need to decide what you want to write about. This is a very important decision. While most students will have a clear idea of what they want to write about, some students tend to bring up too many issues that they do not feel they can tackle effectively. It is important to only write about things that you are familiar with or that relate to your interests.Before you begin to write, consider what it is that you will want to include when speaking about your abilities in the academic environment. Are you going to speak about your achievements? Do you want to talk a bout your study habits and achievements in particular subjects? This is important to help you focus on the main issue that you want to discuss and not get lost in topics that are unrelated to the one you are trying to write about.Another important thing to consider is the format of the essay. It is best to write a single essay, but you should also ensure that it is short, concise and to the point. Your first objective needs to be to explain why you are applying to this specific school. In this way, you can then start to talk about what you expect from this particular university.You should always look for various reasons why a student would choose to study at this particular school. In order to do this, you should speak to the students and ask them about the reasons that they want to study at this university.Some of the major topics that you should consider talking about include: the benefits of studying here, specific areas of the curriculum that you feel you need to learn more abou t, the area of education you are aiming for and much more. These are all good ideas to bring up in your essay, but remember to keep it simple. Remember that when you are applying for a university, people want to see your academic achievements and not to read an essay full of jargon. If you stick to the basics, people will appreciate your efforts.After you have outlined your curriculum or topics that you want to cover in your university application essay, it is important to focus on writing the paper as quickly as possible. As long as you do this properly, it should be relatively easy for you to finish the task in a few hours.The main purpose of any essay is to communicate and relate information to the reader. In this case, it is important to make sure that you relay information with good clarity. To do this, you should ensure that your grammar is perfect and also that you use appropriate vocabulary.

Understanding What Your Therapist Does

Understanding What Your Therapist Does Student Resources Careers Print Understanding What Your Therapist Does By Lisa Fritscher Lisa Fritscher is a freelance writer and editor with a deep interest in phobias and other mental health topics. Learn about our editorial policy Lisa Fritscher Updated on July 27, 2019 Tom M Johnson/Getty Images More in Student Resources Careers APA Style and Writing Study Guides and Tips In This Article Table of Contents Expand Overview Education and Training Approaches to Treatment Specializations Finding a Therapist What to Expect View All Back To Top Your therapist, sometimes known as a psychotherapist or counselor, is an important part of your treatment team to overcome your phobia or phobias. Overview If you suffer from a phobia, you may see several mental health professionals. Here is a brief look at exactly what to expect from your therapist or counselor. A Therapists Education and Training The level of education your therapist has largely depends on the requirements of your mental health facility and state laws. A licensed counselor or therapist usually holds at least a master’s degree and has undergone a supervised internship and a state licensure exam. However, most states allow bachelors level counselors to practice under the  supervision of a psychologist or licensed therapist. Some counselors have training in fields such as addictions or techniques such as art therapy. Psychotherapists come from diverse disciplines, including psychiatric nurses, social workers, psychologists, and psychiatrists. Approaches to Treatment No single approach defines a therapist or counselor. Therapists may prefer a single school of thought, such as behaviorism or cognitivism, or may favor a more eclectic approach. Many general counselors modify their approach to fit the individual client. Therefore, your treatment plan may be far different than a friend’s, even if you see the same therapist. Therapist Specializations Many therapists specialize in a particular mode of therapy. Art therapy, drama therapy, and hypnotherapy are popular options. These therapists typically work in tandem with more generalized practitioners rather than carrying caseloads of their own, although certain disorders â€" including some phobias â€" may be treated solely by a specialized therapist. Specialized fields of counseling include addictions, community mental health, and marriage and family. Some specializations require additional training and certifications. Others can be practiced by anyone meeting the general requirements for counselors in their state. How to Find a Therapist Finding a therapist can be challenging. In order for the partnership to be a success, there must be rapport and trust. You will need to choose a therapist that shares your beliefs about the nature of phobias and their treatment. Referrals are often the best source, but keep in mind that what is right for your friend may not be right for you. What to Expect If your child needs therapy, it is normal for you to have doubts and fears, particularly if you have never visited a therapist yourself. You may wonder what to expect. A trip to the therapist is very much like a trip to the doctor. You may check-in with a receptionist or just sit in the therapists waiting area for your appointment. The therapist will ask numerous questions to try to pinpoint the problem. At some point, he or she will want to see the child alone. At the end of the session, you will be invited in for a wrap-up of the session and suggestions for future treatment. Divorcing Your Therapist Sometimes, despite our best efforts, the therapist-client relationship simply does not work out. Simple compatibility issues are among the most common reasons for breaking off the relationship. Before you leave, try to work through your issues with the therapist. Sometimes issues such as transference can make you feel like leaving when, in fact, staying is the best choice. Nonetheless, ?divorcing your therapist need not be a painful or difficult process.

Inspiring professors Jamie MacAlister in Uganda

The latest installment of our Inspiring Professors Series focuses on Jamie MacAlister, Professor of Global Strategy on the Hult Undergraduate program and Executive Coach for the MBA, EMBA, and Executive Education programs. Jamie, who has an MA from Cambridge University, an MBA from Wharton, and extensive experience with major companies including PwC and PG, is passionate about facilitating economic growth in Uganda. His approach is two-fold: he is striving to improve both local commerce and education within the region. This year, Jamie will be taking time out from teaching at Hult, and travelling with his wife, Jenny, to help set up a radical new business school with a focus on practical education in Kampala, as well as continuing to strengthen ties for his various trade endeavors. Facilitating world-class education in Uganda Jamie first traveled to Uganda on a charitable mission over ten years ago, when he provided business coaching to local entrepreneurs. And his interest in the region has steadily evolved since then. His hometown church has helped to build and support a school in the Katwe slums of Kampala, made famous recently by the Disney film, Queen of Katwe. Jamie facilitating an Executive Leadership program for local managers in Kampala, Uganda Now, with a vision for establishing world-class business education opportunities in Kampala, Jamie has teamed up with The Clarke Group to improve the quality of business education available. The Clarke Group have already established the International Health Sciences University (IHSU) in the region, and are turning their attention to business education. By providing good quality, practical business education, Jamie hopes the local population will harness this expertise and bring an increase in profitable trade to the region.   In turn, his goal is that the school will eventually attract students from across the Sub-Saharan African region and ultimately the developed world. All this will contribute to transforming the Ugandan economy and making an impact internationally. Jamie is a firm believer in the power of business to bring about positive social change:   Ã¢â‚¬Å"Business is increasingly global in nature. In my view, some of the biggest issues in the world today—poverty, sickness, scarce resources—can be solved through business and an enterprising mind-set.† This is something he considers in detail in his recently published book Risky Strategy. [Tweet Is business destined to be part of the problem, or part of the solution?] Views of Central Kampala from the new school building in the Katwe slum Enabling self-sufficiency— the only viable long-term solution Jamie’s connections with Trade not Aid underline his belief that Uganda would benefit from less dependence on aid and more self-sufficiency in terms of trade and income. This highly fertile and oil-rich region has massive untapped potential, he says, but the skills and capabilities of leveraging it are currently lacking. Interestingly the region has demonstrated the ability to lead global innovation and leapfrog technology in Mobile Banking. East Africa is a world leader in Mobile Money because most people don’t have bank accounts but they do have cell phones. He says that this, combined with the significant health needs of the region, are leading to other opportunities for East Africa to leapfrog the developed world in areas like Mobile Health. [Tweet Mobile diagnosis apps are being developed to enable medical diagnosis based on breath composition.] â€Å"The need for low cost solutions is that much greater here. Big names like Microsoft are investing in the region with an interest in addressing global diseases such as  malaria.† By bringing world-class education to Uganda, Jamie hopes to help equip the local population with the ability to bring success to their own communities. Jamie with a cohort in the Health Technology Business class at IHSU, Kampala Leveraging endemic resources Most recently, another opportunity has landed on Jamie’s entrepreneurial radar: the rich resource of Sub-Saharan health-based agricultural products. Jamie’s interest was piqued when he heard about tree planting initiative Our trees, our future. This organization has already planted over 1 million seedlings in villages around Uganda to help local communities increase their income from fruit. After hearing about this, Jamie and a colleague turned their attention to an undiscovered local health product called Moringa. Jamie describes Moringa as the most nutritious plant on the planet, growing in a few (hot) countries around the world, with the biggest producer currently being India. It is reputed to have positive benefits for diabetes, asthma, and possibly even cancer, and is currently the subject of a number of clinical trials worldwide. Working the tree farm at Jinja, Uganda, on the Our Trees, Our Future project Jamie agreed to help find an overseas market for Moringa. This led him to form a partnership with Aduna—the leading marketer of Moringa in the UK and largest supplier to health food giant Holland Barrett. They also re-export their products to 18 other countries in  Europe, the Middle East, and Far East—remarkable given the relatively small size of the company. Aduna’s vision is to create demand for health plants from the African Sub-Saharan region. And this is the essence of the â€Å"Trade not Aid† idea, explains Jamie—any aid money should be spent on creating demand, rather than growing products that end up getting abandoned because nobody wants to buy them: â€Å"I see an opportunity to connect Aduna with Moringa suppliers in Uganda and create investment in local processing as well as growing.â€Å" Nick Salter—one of the founders of Aduna—was recently one of Jamie’s guest speakers at Hult in his Global Strategy class. He is also passionate in his belief in ‘fair trade not aid’ as the solution. He notes that a lot of aid to agricultural projects fails to deliver sustainable benefits to the targeted economies because it fails to generate demand for the produce. And because they are project-based (ie time-limited), when the money runs out,  the development unwinds – e.g., trees are felled or abandoned. Much better, he argues, for aid to be directed at creating demand in developed economies for these products. This is what Aduna spend significant amounts of their investors’ money on. And they are seeing significant social impact as a result. Hult Global Strategy Aduna Nick Salter, Founder of Aduna, presents to Jamies Global Strategy class So—Is business destined to be part of the problem, or part of the solution? Jamie explains that this question is at the heart of his research into modern slavery, undertaken as part of a team on behalf of Hult, in partnership with the Ethical Trading Initiative. Participating companies included Asda, BA, Coca Cola, Jown Lewis Partnership, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, The White Company, SABMiller, Co-Op, and many others. 77% of the companies surveyed believed that modern slavery could be happening somewhere in their supply chain, due to the chains being so complex. This is a global issue involving NGOs, businesses and Trade Unions. How can businesses go from being a cause of this problem to becoming the solution? Taking Moringa production as an example, Jamie believes that by being more creative at both ends of the supply chain, grave exploitation can be mitigated. For example, enabling the suppliers not just to pick the fruit but to process and package it too, creating more value, more jobs, and fairer rewards for the supplier. Jamie stops off at Bookworld, in the Dubai Mall, en route to Uganda for a book signing Realizing Uganda’s value Jamie sees Uganda as a central and extreme case of untapped potential in Sub-Saharan Africa.   He quotes Winston Churchill, who saw Uganda’s potential over 100 years ago, when he famously referred to the country as â€Å"The Pearl of Africa†Ã¢â‚¬â€a pearl of great price, which in the last hundred years has somehow managed to elude realizing that value. â€Å"Since I first started visiting Uganda over ten years ago,† Jamie says, â€Å"I have been mulling over the idea of an ‘exchange of riches.’ Rather than this western idea that Africa needs ‘rescuing’ mostly with aid I see countries like Uganda have something special to offer the rest of the world. We bring our riches in terms of expertise to help release that. Jenny and I draw from a phrase once spoken about a biblical princess called Esther: ‘For such a time as this’—we feel our skills and experience can be useful to release something powerful!† We wish Jamie and Jenny all the best and look forward to catching up with them later in the year. And, of course, to having Jamie back in the classroom next September to share his learnings and experiences!

Media s Influence On Consumer Behavior - 1189 Words

In the modern society, businesses tend to adopt persuasive marketing communication in consideration of various components, including behavioural economics, sociology and psychology. Most conspicuously, all of these essential elements to successful marketing influence one broad concept: consumer behaviours. Businesses that design their advertising strategies based on consumer behaviours often observe, examine and analyze the psychology of spending in an attempt to stimulate consumers’ interests and facilitate sales growth. In this paper, I will discuss two typical examples of advertisements which represent the power of cultural influences, more specifically, how cultures potentially affect and manipulate consumers’ understanding, beliefs, and spending. 1. Video Commercial: BMO Fanfini. This commercial was published on YouTube by the Bank of Montreal in August 2016. The target audience of this commercial is represented by a culture which includes three aspects: ecology, social structure and ideology. The ecology in this commercial is a developed society with sufficient recourses and internet access. The social structure includes families and individuals living in Montreal, Canada with at least moderate income. The ideology this commercial attempts to grasp includes people who are interested in soccer. According to the three aspects above we can conclude that the target audience for this commercial is people in Montreal who are familiar with soccer games.

The New York Times headline covers the story on the recent resignation from office of the Secretary of Defense, Mr. Jim Mattis, as a way of protesting Trumps administration. The headline used by The New York Times was effective in summarizing the story in a generalized term. The author, Helene Cooper, grabs the readers attention effectively by inducing further reading and stating Mattis decision to walk way was his disapproval of Trumps worldview (2018). Upon reading the article in its entirety, one finds the reason for the resignation was more narrow than that. In particular, the Secretary quit after the Commander in Chief delivered a public message announcing the official retrieval of US military units Syria. Don’t waste time! Our writers will create an original "Jim Mattis Rebukes of Trumps Worldview" essay for you Create order The author of the article, Helene Cooper, continued to explain a series of events that led to the resignation of Mattis to his position in the White House, as the primary adviser in national security matters. The author continues (Cooper, 2018) to detail that Mattis himself carried his resignation, typed in official letterhead, to President Trump on 20th December 2018. The setting for the event was at the White House, Washington D.C. Although there are many underlying factors of disagreements prior to this event, the ultimate reason for the resignation can be summarized by saying that both parties had different agendas and unparelled views on military and defense strategy. Mattis believed that incorporating US relations with allied nations was a strong asset for America and it showed strengh. This explains why his resignation letter reads we cannot protect our interests or serve that role effectively without maintaining strong alliances and showing respect to those allies (Cooper, 20 18). Clearly, the parties had opposing views of how the nation should manage the military forces overseas and which operations were to be supported. Helene describes Mattis as feeling stronghold and upheld his position that providing a strong military presence in certain key locations served to avert the enemies and avoid war, and the withdrawal of troops in those keen locations could bring back the chaos to those areas. This was particularly true in relation to ISIS, whose terrorism was not evident until after the US departure from Iran six years ago. The coalition forces were brough in to Syria to help protect the local citizens from the terrorist force and those efforts significantly diminished their attacks. Furthermore, the news state that most the presidents cabinet, to include Senators Mark Warner and Ben Sasse, along with many other advisers were saddened by the resignation as they saw Mattis as an island of stability around the chaos of Trumps administration. Many White House representations believed Mattis experience and professional advice to the President helped keep the nation safe. This was said to be the most public way of protesting Trumps administration since 1980 when then-Secretary of State Vince resigned over another national security issue to former President Carter. The connection found between the articles selected and what I know about leadership is that one should always stick to his/her guts even when is not the most popular thing to do. As leaders, we are asked to make difficult decisions, and those decisions, may or may not go in accord to our personal beliefs. One should ask: Is it Ethical, Illegal or Immoral? If it is, or if it goes against what the individual believes to be right, then a good leader will make the right decision. I find this article describes many aspects of good leadership and followership. Being in this key role, Mattis stood by President Trump and some of his decisions, even when he disagreed with them. However, Mattis reached a point where he could not, because of his own morals and beliefs, support the Presidents decisions. Being a good leader takes Education and Experience, Honor, Integrity, Decision-Making, and Trust. In this case, it appears Mattis did not feel his professional skills and experience in advising t he president were taken into consideration, which created a lack of trust in the relationship. The story included a link that redacted the resignation letter. It also used historical records, with specific names and dates that added to the validity of the story. I did not find the story was exaggerated to capture the readers attention, and it included a few videos and links the some of the material redacted. These links and videos served as supporting documentation. The link provided to the letter allowed me to read what the letter exactly said versus having only the articles writer perspective.

My Experience With Severe Anxiety - 1635 Words

When I reflect on everything that has happened thus far in my lifetime, I am amazed at how far I have come. I was born on May 31st, 1998. My mom was in college when she had me, and my father worked two jobs to support the family. They worked incredibly hard to make sure that I had a good and comfortable life. They never gave up, even when they were loaded with their many responsibilities, because they cared so much for me and my future. I truly admire them for that. They instilled the value of preserving, and never giving up, no matter how tough your challenges in life are. This value is very important to me, and I believe that I would not be where I am today if I didn’t stay true to this value. This value has been especially important when I have had to deal with severe anxiety. I have dealt with anxiety my entire life. The anxiety became especially intense during my freshman year of high school. It began to severely interfere with my schooling, to the point where I could not even attend school. I many attempts to continue to attend school, but these attempts would often end with me having a severe panic attack. This constant failure to attend school sent me into a bout of depression. All of these factors led to the decision for me to be put into home hospital, where I would do all my schoolwork at home, and work with a teacher who came to my house for an hour each day. This would allow me to focus on receiving professional help with my anxiety.

Male Eating Disorders Essay - 2485 Words

Eating Disorders in Males Eating disorders have traditionally been a â€Å"woman’s problem.† It has not been until recently that we have recognized the fact that males are suffering from these deadly disorders as well. It has been generally agreed upon that anywhere from five to 15 percent of all reported cases of eating disorders are attributed to men. This paper will examine its incidence in males and the physical and psychological aspects associated with having an eating disorder. First lets look at the history of eating disorders. The very first case of an eating disorder diagnosed was actually a male. In 1689, Dr. Richard Morton described a case of â€Å"nervous consumption† in a 16-year-old male and he was prescribed restraint from†¦show more content†¦(Crosscope-Happel, Hutchins, Hayes, 2000) Studies have shown that over one million males are affected with anorexia nervosa yearly. (Crosscope-Happel, Hutchins, Hayes, 2000) Some have suggested that these numbers are on the rise as the media continues to assert a more and more unattainable goal of beauty on the public. The majority of the population suffering from eating disorders is female, so lets look at the general prototype of a patient. She is generally a teenager, from a middle to upper class background and white. She generally excels at schoolwork and extra-curricular activities, and is often times labeled a perfectionist. How does this differ from a male with eating disorders? Not all that much actually, he also does well in school although sports tend to be overemphasized. The family tends to play an important role in the development of eating disorders. Males tend to have very strict, domineering fathers who encouraged development in sports. It has also been recognized that many men with eating disorders may not have had a father figure around at all. (Zerbe, 1992) Their mothers have been described as overprotective and controlling. (Romero, 1994) Adolescent boys with eating disorders relate that parents or siblings are usually on diets as well and there tends to be an emphasis on food a nd dietingShow MoreRelatedMale Eating Disorders : The Silent Struggle1911 Words   |  8 PagesMale Eating Disorders: The Silent Struggle Imagine looking into a mirror and feeling absolutely repulsed with the person looking back at you.
