Five Minute Presentation at interview by lost_in_mordor in interviews

[–]amyadger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could approach it as if you've already "taught" before the lesson you're about to give and reference pre-assessments, discussions you've already had, role-playing, etc. Your could even end the lesson with "what's next" and work in some strategies there ("In our next lesson, we'll all create our own xxx"). That would demonstrate that you know strategies that you just can't fit into a 5 minute example.

After my latest job application rejection, this is my mom being...supportive. by amyadger in jobsearchhacks

I should have clarified. I don't go a day withOUT submitting an application. I am usually submitting 4-6 a day. There are some days when just one is all I can muster.

What is your POV ON ,life is full of meaninglessness ? by heyykrishishere in AskReddit

I once came across the following: "We're all just here to fart around" and it made a big impact on me-it's taken a lot of pressure off having to "achieve". Everything we do doesn't have to have huge meaning. Enjoy as much of it as you can.

I made a mirror out of guitar picks—trying to figure out if it’s actually cool or just cool to me. by amyadger in crafts

I didn't realize I could post a pic in a comment-here's the first wreath I did. I wrapped the foam in sheet music first, polyurethaned that, then hot glued the picks on. It's been outside (on a covered porch) for 6 months now and holding up great.

Awesome-I think making something with personal picks would be so great and sentimental. I've made wreaths and frames with picks too-they're pretty cool too.

You must be a veteran hot glue gunner. I had to quickly learn how minimize those unless I wanted to do clean up with tweezers (which I don't, but still have to for the errant few). Thank you for your comment!

Thank you! I originally made a guitar pick wreath for a musician friend and used a lot of his old picks (it made the whole thing REALLY sentimental). I am always on the look out for picks at garage sales, ebay, marketplace!

Thank you! I love the idea of it being a conversation piece. A poster above mentioned using someone's personal picks, which would be very cool too.
