About Webster Transfer School

Webster Transfer School Philosophy

Here are some of my thoughts on the university transfer education business.

This is easier said than done for a for-profit school.

However, Webster University will continue to take the high road when it comes to doing what needs to be done and not cross the line when it comes to what shouldn't be done.

Teachable means

Make changes

This is it!

Message to test takers

◾ Judge a course by its content, not by inflated counseling, reviews, or acceptance numbers
◾ Don't put too much faith in unverifiable personal experiences on YouTube
◾ Keep the main idea in mind and good results will follow with mind control
◾ studying is stressful in itself, so you endure 6 days to play for 1 day
◾ If you get a bad result, you haven't failed, you just made a mistake

The instructor's mindset

◾ Don't mistake money for skill
◾ You need to constantly study the content, not just talk a good game
◾ Consider how to deliver content in a changing environment
◾ Don't be a nitrogen-filled bag of sweets with hyperbole
◾ Be able to speak out on social issues, both right and wrong

The way private education should go

◾ Have the right business philosophy
◾ The pursuit of profit should be embedded with morality
◾ You must not engage in false advertising to evade the law
◾ Wealth and honor must be repaid with social contributions

Webster is the name of the American dictionary compiler Noah Webster. Webster recognized the need for the newly independent United States to gain independence from Britain not only in politics, laws, and institutions, but also in language, so he published the American Dictionary of the English Language based on American linguistic life.

The preface to the dictionary states. "Language is the expression of ideas. If the people of a country cannot preserve the independence of their ideas, they cannot preserve the independence of their language." Webster, who argued that traditional British spelling was not only out of sync with pronunciation, but also inefficient, with many unnecessary letters that were never pronounced, believed that American English needed to be different from British English in order to have linguistic sovereignty.

Eventually, he led the American spelling reform movement in favor of phonetic spelling for ease of understanding. Here are some examples of how Webster changed British spellings to American ones.

I made it myself in my spare time while teaching for four years. It took me six months to complete the word list alone. There are a few vocabulary books out there, but I think this is the first one that explains words with images.

According to the "picture superiority effect" in cognitive psychology, words learned through images are remembered six times longer.

I thought it would add a little fun to the boring word memorization, but it was actually so hard to work with images that I gave up twice before finally finishing it. My wife is a graphic designer so she helped me a lot.
