Last Thursday's Conversation Hour: Lunch & Learn brought culture to life 🌎✨

From the rich flavors of Palestinian food to the beauty of ballet, our students shared pieces of what matters most to them!

We want your photos. At the end of every term, we make a short video celebrating the completion of another semester, and we include all of the pictures our students share with us. We especially love photos of you and your classmates in class, exploring Chicago, at class parties, and having fun with your teachers. Please send us any photos that you took this semester for us to share in the Tutorium End-of-Session video. You can send the photos to us at tutorium@uic.edu. You can also tag #tieuic in your photos on Facebook and Instagram so we can find and share your memories.

Are you studying with us in the fall? Did you know that TIE students may audit courses with no fee, as long as they receive approval from the college offering the course and collect the required signatures on the audit form. The time frame for getting permission and signing up is short and is at the beginning of each semester. So you should make your plans now and be ready to work on the paperwork as soon as class starts in the fall. 

You can find the form, along with more info on auditing, here: https://registrar.uic.edu/registration/audit/. You would register as a non-degree undergraduate student. Paperwork must be completed before the last day of late registration and cannot be done before the first day of instruction.

Remember to register for classes for your next semester (Summer or Fall). Register by Tuesday, April 28 for a 5% discount! You have received an email with instructions on how to register. Search for “Time to register for Summer courses” in your UIC email. If you try to register and you receive a HOLD message, be sure to contact tutorium@uic.edu.

Do you like theater? Check out UIC's production of "The Tragedy of Macbeth." Yasen Peyankov directs Shakespeare's famous Macbeth. A story about greed, guilt, and paranoia, all loosely based on real historical events.

How can you continue learning and improving your English skills even after studying at the Tutorium? The secret is taking risks and remembering that life, even language learning, is one big adventure. Here are a few tips to take with you on your language learning journey. 

Next time you think or say, “I have never done that before!” consider it an opportunity to do something new, not as a reason not to do it.

When people choose the focus of their education, the goal is to set a strong foundation for their lives. We usually choose our fields for two reasons: to find a job (occupation) with decent pay and to work at something we are interested in. Unfortunately, we often choose without knowing all of the possible choices! We usually only know the kinds of jobs that our parents, relatives, and friends have.  

To increase your knowledge of types of jobs, you can just look at this website for occupations in the USA. Home: Occupational Outlook Handbook 
Occupations = jobs or types of jobs. Outlook = predictions about those jobs.

Look at how you can search, sort, and look at jobs!
