Which Mode Of Travel Will You Take?

How much should I charge for teaching English to my pig farm coworkers? 

And what other tips and advice might you guys have for a new ESL teacher

The (possibly) helpful details.

I taught English classes at my workplace. My students are coworkers and mostly collage graduates from Central America usually from Mexico. This past fall I had about 10-17 people show up. About half of the students are just beginning in English and the others are more or less at a conversational level. When I start teaching again I plan to meet once a week for so many weeks and then take couple of weeks break and repeat. When I started last it was a trial run for me and the students and the company. The classes are free for the students and I was paid my salary for an hour of my time. But now that I passed the trial run I am submitting an invoice like a independent contractor and would like to change for my prep time. Most information I see online is for people working in institutions which doesn't seem helpful to me.

Any help will be appreciated thanks in advance future friends and strangers

I'm 90% white like the government and society considered me white and nobody treats me like a Native American (fortunately) but I'm not a Nazi or anything of the kind. Would you be willing to have someone not Brown joining and listening in? I would be interested in coming to a greater understanding of the unique challenges of writers with different colors of skin then my own

most people that will see this know this already, but here we go.

i joined a writers group that ended up being full of racism and nazi imagery. so I decided to make a writers of color discord server, as a safe community for all non-white writers.

anyone who is a writer and non-white can join, no restrictions.

This is actually a pretty hilarious setup

You’re the city’s superhero. Your greatest enemy is the city’s supervillain. However, you’re secretly brothers. This isn’t tragic, though, because your whole destructive rivalry is just a massive prank on your older third brother - the mayor.

History is weirder than we remember.

Humans Are Weird

So there has been a bit of “what if humans were the weird ones?” going around tumblr at the moment and Earth Day got me thinking. Earth is a wonky place, the axis tilts, the orbit wobbles, and the ground spews molten rock for goodness sakes. What if what makes humans weird is just our capacity to survive? What if all the other life bearing planets are these mild, Mediterranean climates with no seasons, no tectonic plates, and no intense weather? 

What if several species (including humans) land on a world and the humans are all “SCORE! Earth like world! Let’s get exploring before we get out competed!” And the planet starts offing the other aliens right and left, electric storms, hypothermia, tornadoes and the humans are just … there… counting seconds between flashes, having snowball fights, and just surviving. 

Centuries into a generation ship’s journey, the ship has a constant plethora of tiny issues and malfunctions overlooked by most of the crew’s mechanics in favour of the larger issues. In your off-time, you decide to start fixing some of these minor issues and discover some interesting functions.

I wondered why green is so associated with hope and then I remembered being 8 and seeing a little plant sprout after a few days of waiting and. Yeah. I get it now.

Long time no art!
