Can you still teach abroad without a degree?

I seem to get an email with that question almost every week. The answer is a ‘qualified’ yes…for now. More and more countries do not grant work/teaching visas to anyone unless they have a degree. Some countries are more bureaucratic than others. Here is an example:

In Thailand, where I taught for 14 years, three ministries are involved in the process: Education, Immigration and Labor. You can’t officially teach without all their stamps of approval. Suppose you receive a job offer from a school in Thailand. What you need to do then is go to the nearest Thai embassy or consulate and get a 3-month B non-immigrant visa. The ‘B’ allows you to travel to Thailand and work while your documents are verified and processed. You should also get a letter from the local police department stating that you are a good person and not on anyone’s wanted list. Once you arrive in Thailand, your school should be able to do most of the legwork for you…whether you’re going to work for a government, private, or international school. Some employ so many foreign teachers that they have a specific department to process visas, renewals, etc. They send their papers to the Ministry of Education. Until that ministry approves them, you cannot get your work permit. Something that all aspiring teachers should be aware of is that Thailand and some other countries now require their original documents: degree, transcripts and diplomas. If you only bring copies, you will face delays, so always find out exactly what you need to bring. In South Korea, you can bring copies certified by the nearest South Korean embassy or consulate.

By the way, Ministries of Education are aware of diploma mill degrees, so don’t even think about trying that route.

In some countries, there are still ways to teach without a degree.

Option 1: If you don’t have a degree and want to teach, there are opportunities in countries like China, Vietnam, and some Eastern European countries. I think they will eventually adjust their requirements as well, but at the moment, there are still opportunities, although perhaps not in the larger centers. These change all the time, so you’ll need to find out from your nearest embassy or consulate. Most of these would also be online. Having a TESOL or TEYL Certificate will help your cause.

Option 2: You can try to find a teaching position in a corporation. Almost all companies want their managers, supervisors and anyone who has to deal with customers, suppliers, headquarters, branches, visiting dignitaries, etc. abroad, can communicate in English. While many send their people to local English schools, some find it more profitable to hire in-house trainers. If you’re lucky enough to land a corporate teaching job, you take a different route to government approvals, being added to their staff as a ‘specialist’ and a degree, while helpful, isn’t always a prerequisite. Having a TESOL certificate (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) or a TEFL certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) will definitely help. It shows that you have real training that will benefit you in modern classrooms.

How would you find these opportunities? You can search the internet or take a trip to the country and explore while you’re there (presumably as a tourist). If you found a position while you were there, it could involve traveling out of the country and entering on a different visa. Get ready for it. Countries vary considerably in their requirements. If you are given an interview, make sure you ‘dress the part’. I look like a teacher. Have your resume ready, tidy, grammatically correct and with a photo (required abroad). Foreign teachers usually wear a suit and tie. Knee-length skirt and a conservative blouse for ladies.

Option 3: Do you have specialized knowledge that a particular school might need? This could be an aeronautical technician, for example. If a company needed someone with your knowledge and skills, this would be another way you could be hired as a ‘specialist’ with a special dispensation to work/teach in the country.

Option 4: Get in touch with organizations that are looking for volunteers to teach in certain countries. See what their education requirements are and ask for their advice. Maybe you can get along with them and see what happens while you’re abroad. As a volunteer, you would not normally be paid, but accommodation and meals would be covered. Who knows what teaching opportunities might arise?

Not options: I mention them because some people try to circumvent the law by entering a country on visas such as Tourist, Education or Retirement. None of these allow you to work/teach… at least not in Thailand. Some of these visa holders want to stay longer than their visa allows, or their budget allows, so they look for schools where they can teach and earn money so they can stay longer. Some schools are less interested in regulations than bargain-priced teachers. These may be willing to hire teachers willing to work for less than the going rate because their qualifications are not high enough or they are a friend of a friend. They would not be listed as teachers on the school payroll and would be paid in cash under the table. I know this happens, but I don’t advocate using this plan. Claiming ignorance of the law is not enough. You could end up being jailed or deported.

I recommend that you find a way to earn your degree. If you are lucky enough to find employment, you can earn your degree online over a period of time. Even many of the old established physical institutions now offer degrees online. If you are serious about teaching, you must also be serious about advancing your education. I believe that. In my experience, the best teachers are lifelong learners, and I hope you become one.

In addition to your degree, I mentioned earlier that having a TESOL or TEFL certificate is good. Many schools are requesting one of these now in addition to a degree. There are also other valuable teaching certificates:

CELTA – Certificate in Language Teaching to Adults (British)

TEFLA – Teaching English as a Foreign Language to Adults. (similar to CELTA)

TEYL – Teaching English to Young Learners

These three are specific to one age group and are therefore excellent as supplementary qualifications. Initially, you need a broader certificate: TESOL or TEFL. Why do I say that? Many schools specifically ask for one of these two qualifications and although their aim may be to “teach adults in Europe” for example, the reality is that most schools will be looking for someone who can fill a position in primary classes or secondary. . FYI: Western Europe is difficult for new teachers to penetrate and schools generally want British qualifications. It’s fine if you have them, but I always suggest that you “fish where the fish are.” In other words, look for a teaching job where there are many openings. You have a much better chance of finding a position and if you don’t have all the qualifications that other places would require, you have a better chance where supply and demand are tilting in your favor. Look at it as an opportunity to a) find out if you enjoy teaching, b) gain practical experience, and c) work towards your degree. Once you are hired, you will find opportunities to teach adults who are offered to work at night or on weekends if you wish. Take it. It is more experience for you and a step towards your ultimate goal. All the money earned by moonlight could be deposited into a special account for that elusive degree.

Every week I post a new ESL job listing on my ESL job board and China leads the pack with over 200 jobs to fill most weeks.

Final thoughts…

As a teacher, you want your students to respect you. If you’re teaching them and you don’t even have a bachelor’s degree, are you going to earn that respect? There are many reasons why people don’t go to college immediately after high school. Many cannot afford it. A four-year college can cost up to $100,000 or more and leave you with a lot of debt to pay off. Not a great way to start your working life, right? I didn’t get my bachelor’s degree until I was forty. While teaching abroad, I went on to complete my Masters and then my Ph.D.

So can you teach abroad without a degree? In some countries you can still do it, but the opportunities are getting scarcer. My best advice is to get your TESOL or TEFL certificate first. This is a qualification that schools look for. Then find one of these teaching opportunities so you can quickly find out if teaching is for you. Once you have your certificate, go to Google, Yahoo, or Bing and search for “Teaching Jobs in ____.” (try China or Vietnam first). Send nicely worded inquiries to schools with a one-page resume extract. Make absolutely sure that you use proper English in your cover letter and resume. Remember that you are applying for a position as someone qualified to teach English. Your query letter and resume should reflect that! Spelling errors will quickly get your application rejected. Tell schools that you are working to complete your degree. Once you get hired and start working, you can do it, even if it takes a few years to complete like mine did. You will feel much better about yourself. You will be a good example for your students. Self-respect is good to have and will reflect on your students as you encourage them not to drop out of school or be satisfied with a high school/high school diploma. Your degree will also open many more doors to better jobs, so I urge you to do yourself and your future students a favor and work towards a degree. Become an inspiring teacher and a lifelong learner. Thousands of students are waiting to learn from you.

Does cheating on the candida diet take you back to ground zero?

In this article, I will show the effects of cheating on the candida diet or the yeast free diet, based on a request from my friend. He has cheated a bit by eating mustard that contained vinegar and a dish made with soy sauce. However, he has never cheated with sugar or yeast, as he considers them the worst things to have. The times he cheated with the small amount of fermented food, he didn’t notice any ill effects. He also wonders what would happen if he ate something like nut butter, which is allowed on the diet, and then had a reaction. Does he essentially start over?

I can say that the little tricks add up. Cheating all the time is not a healthy approach. Recognize that some things are better than others. For example, a little bit of fermented stuff is better than pure carbs and sugar for fuel. Stay away from anything that gives you a reaction that you can identify, and know that some reactions are internal things that you won’t even notice.

Does cheating get you back to ground zero? It probably isn’t. It could, but if you’re making constant improvements, it’ll just slow you down a bit. Look at it this way. If you are nearly successful in eradicating a yeast problem and then feed that yeast, it will repopulate because it is already weakened. So while he might have been one down and fifteen to go, now he’s back at sixteen. However, I think it is more complicated than that. They may have recovered from the attack and are energized to deal more damage.

It is an individual decision. A huge chocolate chip cookie eases his despair in a way no security team can. And since it would also set you back, you should live healthier and try not to cheat as much as you can.

Attack boy! Choosing a dog for your active lifestyle

If you’re a runner, jogger, or just an outdoor enthusiast, you may be looking for a dog to fit your active lifestyle. While most dogs love to be outdoors, certain breeds are always up for a very active lifestyle (while, just like people, there are some sedentary dogs). Doing your research before making a final dog selection can help ensure that you and your canine companion have many happy, active hours together. Here’s what you need to know about choosing a dog for an active lifestyle:

Be realistic about your lifestyle. One of the most important things to keep in mind is to assess your lifestyle realistically and not ideally. It really won’t work to have a dog as a jogging partner if he hasn’t started jogging yet. Breeds that need large amounts of exercise tend to become destructive when bored, and a bored dog with natural athletic abilities can generate horrendous masses. Taking on one of these active breeds means accepting that your dog needs to work hard and providing that encouragement. Jogging buddies, hiking buddies, and dog sports candidates are high-energy breeds that need active people. Herding and co-working breeds fall under the high-energy heading and need a great deal of daily exercise to keep them content. Individual breeds within other groups can also be high-energy, such as some of the Sporting, Terrier, and Hound breeding groups.

Examine your circumstances. While there are active dogs in all shapes and sizes, many of them are at the larger end of the scale. If you’re an apartment dweller with little space to spare, choosing a large, high-energy dog ​​may not be the best option for you. On the other hand, if you are a family of four and are looking for a companion to match your active lifestyle, this animal may be perfect. A dog’s size, exercise requirements, friendliness, assertiveness, and compatibility with children should influence your final decision. Also, you need to be aware of any weather restrictions your new dog might have. Certain breeds can do well in high temperatures, while other breeds, despite their energy, would not. In contrast, certain breeds do not tolerate cold, so if you enjoy outdoor activities in the winter, you will want to choose a dog that does as well.

Learn about the different breeds. How do you find out which dogs have the qualities you’re looking for? The key here is having the information you need to make an informed decision. You can learn about dogs online and through books and then visit the animals at the shelter and talk to an adoption counselor for guidance. It’s important to note that dogs generally fall into one of two categories: purebreds or mixed breeds. Most animal shelters will have plenty of both. The only significant difference between the two types is that of Thoroughbreds because their parents and other ancestors are all members of the same breed and are similar to a specific “breed standard”. This means that if you adopt a purebred puppy, you have a good chance of knowing how big it will grow and what general physical and behavioral characteristics it will have. This can be especially important if you are considering adopting an active, high-energy dog. Of course, the size, appearance, and temperament of most mixed breed dogs can also be predicted fairly accurately. After all, mixed breeds are simply combinations of different breeds. So if you know the ancestry of a particular mongrel puppy or can identify what kind of dog it is (eg: terrier mix), you also have a good chance of knowing how it will turn out.

How to find your dream home in Belize

Buying property in Belize is not as simple a task as might be initially expected!

First of all, real estate agents as we know them do not exist! The real estate brokers out there are likely to be unlicensed, unregulated, and certainly not trained or insured.

Secondly, most (and I mean most) of the properties for sale are not advertised!

But as property prices remain affordable, the quality of available properties is attractive, the weather is beautiful, the people are welcoming, the quality of life is incredible, and the opportunities in Belize are abundant, more and more people need know HOW they can achieve their dream. house in Belize.

This article should cover the tips, tricks, and important points for your consideration, and go some way towards helping you locate and purchase your ideal real estate property in Belize!

First part: house search.

As mentioned, many properties that are for sale are often not advertised.

Sure, there are occasional ads in the San Pedro Sun or Belize City newspapers and there are some real estate agents who keep up-to-date listings, either available on request or through their websites, but seriously, most properties that are for sale are not advertised – and I’m talking about at least three quarters.

The only way to find out what is really available is to travel to Belize and spend time there among the locals and expats.

You see, properties that are for sale are usually offered by their owners, and they often choose to bypass the middleman: the real estate broker. So, with no middlemen and no signage, the only way you’ll learn about what’s on the market is to meet the locals and expats in the particular areas you’re interested in, and word of mouth you can start hearing about. what is actually available.

As soon as word gets out that it’s on the market, chances are you’ll be inundated and have more properties and deals to choose from than you can handle! Be prepared and do not accept the first opportunity that comes your way!

Second Part: Real Estate Brokers.

Because anyone in Belize can be a real estate broker, the quality you come across will vary greatly!

So be warned: no license, no insurance, no experience, no training is required to become a real estate agent: so what you’ll typically find are expats, hoteliers, shop owners, and taxi drivers as real estate agents. .

Yes, there ARE some professional agents who are honest and knowledgeable and whose agency business is legitimate, but there are also those who make a quick killing selling anything and everything to unsuspecting tourists.

Listen to the experiences of others and if a trusted advisor recommends someone, all the better.

If you buy through an agent, commissions in Belize are typically 7% on residential property and around 10% on land transactions, at the seller’s expense: and in some cases, as a buyer, you may be charged to view the property if it is remote. and requires the disbursement of travel expenses. Make sure you know what charges you may be responsible for up front.

Third Part: Property Prices.

Despite a steady 20-year appreciation in Belize real estate prices, property remains attractively priced, especially when comparing similar real estate prices for sale in the United States or Western Europe.

There are still plenty of deals available in this beautiful Central American country. But it’s not so much what you know as who you know when it comes to getting the best deal for your money.

There’s a common sentiment among the expat community in Belize – something like “the second house you buy or rent is twice as big as the first and costs half as much” – so don’t part with your money until you’re totally there! sure you know what you’re doing!

Get ready to spend time in Belize and get ready to spend time meeting and making friends with local people, any influential lawyers and business people and also the local expat community. It is through these people that you will find the best real estate at the best prices.

Another point worth considering is that Belize is a country where there are two prices: the local price and the foreign price. Yes, from an expat point of view this is unfair. But from a local’s point of view, the ‘rich’ foreigner who is paid much more for his work in his country than a Belizean in Belize for the same work, may simply pay the highest price.

One way around this is to ask a Belizean friend to ask the price and negotiate for you! Easy!

And yes, negotiation is key: property prices vary wildly from region to region, city to city, and provider to provider. There really is no set valuation structure that someone can base the price of a property or land on.

This means that it is difficult to say exactly how much real estate is worth and how much property prices have actually increased in recent years. It is even more difficult to say what a real estate investor in Belize could expect year after year in terms of the appreciation of any real estate asset. So much so that the saying “you almost always make your money when you buy, not when you sell” goes doubly true in Belize.

As a very general guide to property prices, they are highest in Belize City, Ambergris Caye and Placencia, and lowest in more remote rural areas.

House prices range from $15,000 for a basic traditional home in a small, undeveloped town to $500,000 and up for luxury beachfront villas in, say, San Pedro.

Any agent or vendor you speak to is likely to talk about the possible returns on an investment in property or land in Belize, this is only natural! But what you need to keep in mind is that:-

a) the economy of this country is tied to the US economy and

b) the time it takes to sell a property in Belize can be very long and drawn out (I mean years, not weeks or months) which is something to keep in mind when considering buying a property that you someday want/need to resell

This shouldn’t necessarily put you off; After all, you can still buy a lot more for your dollar, pound, or euro in Belize than you can in the US, UK, Mediterranean region, or Western Europe, but it’s important to take a realistic view. of the real estate market in any country in which you are considering investing or moving. That way you walk in with your eyes wide open…it’s always better to be a smart shopper!

Part Four: Foreign Property.

Belizean authorities are open to and in fact accepting of foreign investment, which means that they impose very few restrictions when it comes to foreign ownership of real estate in their country.

In Belize, it is even possible for non-nationals to freely purchase prime beachfront property. There used to be a license requirement for a foreigner to purchase land larger than 10 acres or 1/2 acre in a major town or city, but this requirement has been revoked.

The only rules and restrictions are:-

The foreign purchase of any island must have the approval of the Government through the Ministry of Natural Resources.

In certain coastal and key protected areas, the purchase of land and property by non-locals must be approved by the local village council.

Fifth Part: Legal and Financial Considerations.

I always suggest that people seek qualified legal advice when it comes to such a large and far-reaching undertaking like buying real estate!

Belize is no exception!

In fact, in Belize, lawyers are generally seen as well-connected and trusted pillars of the community with real power. And their fees are typically around 2% of the purchase price…this should cover title searches and drafting of transfer documents.

In terms of allowing you to fulfill your real estate dreams, the responsibility is going to fall on you! It is extremely difficult for non-residents to obtain mortgages from banks in Belize, therefore most buyers are either in a position to pay cash for their purchase or have financing from a financial source outside of Belize.

However, some new developments with mortgages attached by the developer are emerging; real estate developers are often the first to notice a potentially untapped market.

Basically, the terms that are currently available to buyers of such properties are:

The developer retains title to the property until the buyer has fully paid for the property.
The buyer makes a 10% down payment and the remainder is repaid over 10 years at 10% simple interest per year.
Terms will, of course, vary from this to say 50% up front and the remainder payable over three to five years at 12 to 15% interest.

However, keep in mind that the best prices will be for cash offers.

You’ll need to factor in an additional 12-15% on top of the purchase price for fees and costs.

It has the property title transfer fee which is also known as “stamp duty”. This is a mandatory 5% for each purchaser, regardless of their nationality, with an additional 5% payable by non-Belize citizens, making 10% in total.

Apparently this will increase to 12% in the near future.

If you have become a resident of Belize through the Retiree Incentive Program, you are exempt from the 5% second stamp duty for non-citizens.

Then you should have your lawyer’s fees, which will be around 2% of the purchase price.

Finally, you will have property taxes that actually vary from area to area based on the type of land or property purchased. In general, expect to pay around 1% per year of the value of undeveloped land…but talk to your attorney for more exact figures related to the property or land you’re interested in buying.

Top NBA prospects for 2010

March Madness is over, as are the college careers of many of its most talented entrants. Several freshmen (with more to follow) have already declared for the NBA Draft in June. Of course, some will change their minds and return to school after receiving information about their potential draft spots.

Here is my list of the top ten prospects for the 2010 NBA draft (list excludes international players):

1. John Wall, PG, Kentucky – Kentucky point guard leads nearly every 2010 mock draft out there. His combination of size, athleticism and explosiveness are off the charts at his position. Wall also possesses versatility and incredible basketball instincts. SEC Player of the Year – Wall is still very raw and has a lot of room to grow. The ceiling on him at the next level is unlimited, where he will be unstoppable if he develops a reliable jump shot. Wall gets a thumbs up from my No. 2 prospect, Evan Turner, because point guards with his kind of ability don’t show up very often.

two. Evan Turner, SG, Ohio St. – In my opinion, Turner is hands down the smartest of the 2010 NBA prospects. There isn’t much this 6’6″ shooting guard can’t do on the court, as evidenced by his 20-9-6 average this season. Turner has the prototypical NBA shooting guard size to go along with his amazing versatility and court knowledge. He may not be in the explosive mold of Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, but he is more than capable of scoring 20-plus while showing the complete game that made him the player of the year in college basketball this season.

3. Cousins ​​DeMarcus, PF/C, Kentucky – Of the post players in this year’s draft, Cousins ​​is the most ready to contribute immediately. He has an NBA body, excellent post footwork, soft hands and great touch around the basket. Early issues with attitude and maturity would seem to be a thing of the past, as Cousins ​​emerged as the most consistent weapon on a Kentucky team packed with NBA prospects. If Cousins ​​can answer questions about his work ethic and defense, he could be a dominant post in the NBA for a long time.

Four. Derrick Favors, FAQ/C, Georgia Tech – Favors was rivaled only by Wall in fanfare coming out of high school. While Wall flourished in Kentucky, Favors’ season was somewhat disappointing. He showed glimpses of his elite talent, but struggled with consistency throughout the season. In Favors’ defense, the guard play at Tech was downright atrocious at times this season, especially his ability to feed the post and create chances for a very talented front line. Fortunately for Favors, his physical tools were tailor-made for the professional game. His athleticism and explosiveness around the rim can’t be matched by the other bigs in this draft.

5. Wesley Johnson, G/F, Syracuse – The 6’7″ junior is a long athlete who can defend a multitude of positions. Johnson will be 23 years old when NBA training camps open for the 2010-2011 season, making him the most mature of the top prospects in the NBA.He has a solid shot from the outside and is a very good rebounder at his position.However, his ballhandling and ability to create off the dribble will need to improve.

6. Al-Farouq Aminu, SF/PF, Wake Forest – Very long forward who went from raw athlete with potential to more skilled offensive player this season. Although his face at the basket game showed great improvement, he still has a long way to go. Incredible wing spans and excellent lateral movement make Aminu a potential defensive nightmare for next-level offensive players.

7. Greg Monroe, PF/C, Georgetown – Monroe is an incredibly skilled big man with soft hands and solid footwork. He is a great post passer and really seems to have a great sense of the game. On the downside, Monroe isn’t particularly athletic, and motivation can be an issue. He can also use some work on his weak hand.

8. Ed Davis, P.F., North Carolina – After showing great promise as a freshman for a National Champion, expectations were high for Davis as a returning sophomore. Unfortunately, the season was a disappointment for both Davis and his Tarheels. His offensive game is still pretty limited, as he’s primarily a finisher around the rim. He will need to expand his offensive repertoire a lot, but his ability is undeniable.

9. Xavier Henry, SG, Kansas – Most mock drafts have his teammate – Cole Aldrich going ahead of him at this point. But I like the ideal size of Henry for NBA 2 and the hitting from the outside. He will definitely need to improve his dribbling scoring ability, but he will be very effective off screens. Explosiveness may not be ideal for an SG, but he possesses enough athleticism to get the job done.

10 Ekpe Udoh, PF/C, Baylor – Udoh came into his own in his youth campaign when he led Baylor to the Elite 8. He has great potential as a defensive player with superior shot-blocking ability. His offensive skill set is still emerging, but he has plenty of promise as a post scorer.

5 Great Barbados Hotels

I was going to call this article the “Top Five Hotels in Barbados”, but then decided that “best” is subjective, and there are many excellent hotels in Barbados. So I settled on “Five Great Barbados Hotels”.

Each hotel is unique and if you stay in any of them you will surely be more than satisfied.

1 Crane Beach Hotel

After landing at Grantley Adams Airport, take the road less traveled and drive east, you will come to a place that could be paradise. At the end of a long drive, and on the famous Crane Beach, a beach that Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous recognizes as one of the ten best beaches in the world, is the first hotel I stayed in Barbados.

The Crane Beach Hotel is a grand coral mansion, with the main villa dating back to 1790 and the resort itself, the oldest continuously operating resort in the Caribbean, dating back to 1887.

Luxurious yet relaxed, the Crane’s rooms and suites feature four-poster mahogany beds, marble bathrooms, coral walls, and balconies overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. If you can stray from the luxury of your room, L’Azure is just steps away. White tablecloths, candles and a soft guitar complement the culinary delights prepared by your Michelin-starred chef.

If you prefer something a little more exotic, head to Zen, where Thai and Japanese chefs serve sushi, while you sit in front of a glass wall and watch the sea lapping against the rocks 50 feet below. Or, if you just can’t leave your room, you can have breakfast served on your own private balcony.

If you never want to leave, and you certainly won’t be the first, you can now take ownership of the newly developed residences. Own for a week, a month, or outright and with less than seven residences per acre and over a half mile of beautiful ocean frontage, you may never leave this tropical oasis again.

2 The Bougainvillea Beach Resort

The Bougainvillea Beach Resort is the second hotel in Barbados that I have stayed at. It is a luxurious all-suite beachfront resort, with 138 spacious suites, including studios, one- and two-bedroom deluxe suites, and penthouse apartments. It is in a stunning location on one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, surrounded by lagoon pools, waterfalls and lush gardens.

3 Fairmont Royal Pavilion

The Fairmont Royal Pavilion is one of my favorite hotels in Barbados. Fairmont always manages to create elegant yet friendly hotels. The hotel is primarily a couples resort during high season (November 1 to April 30). Children are welcome from May 1 to October 31. Each of the 72 beachfront rooms is decorated in a relaxed Caribbean style, with private patios or terraces. There is also a three-bedroom villa tucked away in the lush gardens.

Located on a beautiful beach, the hotel feels like a luxurious country home, combining old world charm with modern conveniences, you won’t be disappointed if you stay here.

4 The Barbados Hilton Hotel

A five-star resort with 350 rooms overlooking the sea. All rooms have private balconies, separate showers, high-speed Internet access, and cable television. The hotel is built on the peninsula of Needham’s Point and has two great beaches. A large complex of pools and hot tubs, a fitness center, three tennis courts, and a ‘Kidz’ clubhouse make this a great place for families. The complex has a number of restaurants and bars, ranging from a beach bar to a gourmet restaurant.

I stayed in the old hotel, which has been demolished. The old hotel left a lot to be desired but the beaches were spectacular. The beaches remain the same, and now the hotel is just as impressive as the beaches.

5 small bows

I can’t think of a better place for a romantic getaway than Little Arches. This privately owned, ten-room boutique hotel is an adults-only hideaway just steps from Miami Beach. King beds and air conditioning are standard, and oceanfront suites feature oversized private Jacuzzis and terracotta terraces.

Meals are served in the room, poolside, or alfresco at the rooftop restaurant. The hotel’s Café Luna is Zagat’s top rated choice for best hotel dining experience, number one rated Mediterranean food and number 3 pick for best overall food in Barbados for 2006/7.

Security Management Series – Self-Directed Coaching Model – DECIDE

The interesting thing about humans is that we have a wonderful talent for often achieving what we set out to do. Our determination throughout human history has shown that if we set a goal and have a plan, we often end up where we want to be (or at least somewhere close).

Sometimes that journey requires us to have help and other times we can achieve the goal on our own. Either way, it’s essential that you know where you want to be and have a plan to get there. Yogi Berra’s famous quote comes to mind:

“If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll end up somewhere else.”

So let’s move on to a method of developing a goal and plan to get where we want to go with our enhanced skills and knowledge. Let’s decide to achieve our goals!

1. Detail a description of what you want to know or be able to do.

has. What level of skill or knowledge do you want to achieve?

b. How will you know when you get there?

These two fundamental questions must be answered before beginning your improvement journey. It can be as simple as “I want to pass the BCRSP exam” or as complex as “I need to learn to drive a forklift.” Either way, it helps if you can focus specifically on a statement of what will be true in the future when you’ve achieved your goal. Sometimes our knowledge and skills will be assessed by others to demonstrate a level of proficiency, and sometimes there is no formal “test” to pass. It will then be about demonstrating to ourselves and to others in a formal or informal way that we have that knowledge or ability.

It is important to be clear here. Be as specific as you can in tangible ways. “I want to be better!” it is not clear enough. It is also essential that you are the one in control of your goal. You can’t control what you can’t control, don’t set impossible goals for yourself. It will only frustrate you. Walking to the moon is out of the question! Earning a college degree by Tuesday of next week should also be recognized as a bit of a stretch!

2. Examine your current level of skill and knowledge.

has. Take an assessment of your current skills and knowledge.

b. Select the methods you will use to validate your assessment.

Con Consider ranking your current level from 1 to 10 (with 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest).

d. Consult with a friend, a teacher, a fellow practitioner, a certified professional, a mentor, or a career coach. Ask them for their evaluation and assistance in monitoring your progress.

This is where self-reflection and/or advice from a colleague or mentor will come in handy. How much do you already know (and don’t know) and what can you currently do and at what level? If it’s about passing an exam, your score on a set of test questions can give you clarity. If it’s a physical skill…just try it and see if you can accomplish the task. Whatever the method, this important second step is basically to answer “Where are you now?”

In coaching, we often use ‘scaling’ as a way of assessing where someone is; For example: Assess their current skill or knowledge in “Applied Security Fundamentals” or, if you want to be more specific, ask them to scale their knowledge and skill in each of the competencies. I usually use a scale from 1 to 10, 1 is low, 10 is high. Along with this, could you rate how important it is for them to develop in each area? Again, scaled from 1 to 10. Now you can prioritize based on your biggest gaps and what is most important.

3. Clarify the gap between where you are and where you want to be in your defined knowledge and/or skill.

has. Assess how far you are from your knowledge/skill goals.

b. Test yourself.

against Define your defects and successes.

d. Adjust your plans accordingly.

4. Research possible solutions to close the gaps in your knowledge and/or skills.

Now the hard work really begins. How are you going to best bridge the gap? Is it a matter of self-learning? Do you need to take a course? Should you hire a trainer? Perhaps there is an association identified with tools you can use to get the certification you seek. This will lead you to explore what is out there and consider the possibilities. Use your knowledge of their learning preferences to help you decide. Are you a motivated person and can you stick to a plan on your own? Would it be better to have someone to help you along the way who may have superior skill level knowledge in what you want to accomplish? It’s pretty obvious that depending on your particular goal, there could be many possibilities to try.

5. Develop and execute a detailed plan to close the identified gaps.

Now the REAL hard work begins! Execute your plan. This is where the level of your personal diligence in completing your plan is going to matter, A LOT. Big plans will get you nowhere unless you really do! Nike is right… JUST DO IT! It will be important for you to track your progress and take the next step consistently…

As with any great plan, you may need alternatives if you hit a roadblock in your Plan A. Be flexible, but not so flexible that you can’t execute progress toward your goal. Procrastination is our common enemy. If you have to modify your progress plan, get back on track as soon as possible.

6. Evaluate your progress.

has. Go back to Step 2.

b. Re-evaluate your gap analysis.

How are you scoring on your evaluation? Are you making the expected progress? Should you modify your plan? Perhaps due to his expanded knowledge, his goal may even need to change.

against Celebrate if you have achieved your goals

Make sure you take the time to reward yourself for your progress. The milestones and successes along the way should be rewarding. At the very least include some positive “internal dialogue.” To think that you should be proud of what you have done so far is a very good thing!

Well, there you have it. A methodology for not only setting specific achievement goals, but also developing a plan to get there. All it really takes is for you HE DECIDED to do it! Above all… enjoy the ride!
