"FIRST EVER ZUMBA SESSION!"

Yesterday, October 27, the teachers and students took part in the very first Zumba session at the second floor of Genius English Proficiency Academy.

Everybody started putting on their sports and exercise gear immediately after the last class period. Dressed in brightly colored spandex and yoga wear, the participants settled on their spots and started warming up to the music.

The session was led by the lovely Miss Bella, who is an experienced Zumba instructor. Undoubtedly, everybody is inspired by how well sculpted her body is, which only means one thing: She is an effective instructor!

Whoever says teachers only stick to the books all the time clearly hasn’t seen the Genius teachers in action!

Come join us and stay fit while learning English! Sessions are held every Tuesday and Thursday at 6:00PM to 7:00PM!

"BRACE YOURSELVES, HALLOWEEN IS COMING!"

As Halloween creeps closer and closer, Genius is getting ready to welcome it!

Students and teachers were greeted with hair-raising ghosts and ghouls! Jack-o-lanterns were popping out from the bushes frightening anyone who attempts to come near. Creatures of the night were screeching across the hall! And to top that, bats, the children of darkness were swarming the whole campus, getting ready to lay waste all throughout the place!

With the combined efforts of Ms. Kate, our very own Ms. Tatiana, and the rest of the Genius staff, the spooky and mischievous ambiance has been set, awaiting the grand scary event we all love!

Brace yourselves, HALLOWEEN IS COMING!

"GRADUATIONS!"

Genius English Proficiency Academy takes pride in making every student's learning experience
unforgettable. From the first day to the last, what better way to celebrate those memories than by giving them a graduation they will cherish for the rest of their lives. At Genius, we value our students' achievements regardless of how short they have stayed or the course they took. Everybody deserves a memorable celebration at Genius English Proficiency Academy!

Students can celebrate their graduation ceremony at two of our facilities: the second floor lounge and the super cozy lobby at the first floor. The spacious and inviting area, the laser lights and tiki lamps (my personal favorite), and the open sky view at night all contribute to the awesome experience our students enjoy at the second floor. In our fully air-conditioned lobby, students can sit back and relax on our comfortable couches while basking in the ambiance of chill/house/electronic music as their graduation takes place. We have conducted graduations ceremonies for hundreds of students at these facilities and the numbers grow every week!

Of course, these events wouldn't be possible without the help of the dedicated people behind these celebrations. Our I.T. personnel, John, Artu, and Joan put their artistry and years of experience to come up with the best video presentations for the graduating students. Teachers Jill and Cholo are in charge of the lights and sounds, which give the events a lively touch. Last but definitely not the least, Teachers Red, Naomi, and Eppie spice up the night and make the celebration complete with their awesome hosting skills.

Here at Genius, that is how important every student is for us. Whether they are first time students or returnees, short or long stayers, General English or Special Course students, their memories and achievements will always be celebrated in the best way possible. Come study with us! At Genius English Proficiency Academy, we prove you can!

World Teacher's Day!

Last Monday, everybody celebrated World Teacher’s Day. All schools and universities around the world rejoiced to honor the people behind every successful person’s achievements. Of course, the Genius teachers hopped on the jolly train.

The ever-willing teachers prepared for this special day by cutting out colorful letters and turning them into stunning flaglets that add to the already festive mood. On top of that, boxes and boxes of pizza arrived on the scene. And what’s a celebration without cake? A big fat moist chocolate cake decorated with candy flowers and a message made of icing that says “HAPPY TEACHER’S DAY!” warmed their hearts (and filled their bellies).

It was a memorable day for the genius teachers indeed. It’s not easy being a teacher and I believe they deserve a special day on the calendar!

“MAKE DO WITH”

It’s time for your weekly dose of PHRASE FACTS! For work, leisure,
travel, or just a plain conversation over a hot cup of coffee,
we will feature phrases and expressions that will surely help
you develop your vocabulary!

For this week’s PHRASE FACTS, we will tackle the phrase “make do with”. What does it mean? How do we use it? When do we use it?
Well folks, “Make do with” is a phrase we use when we want to express that we are substituting something that is not available. We use what we can find as an alternative. Take a look at these examples:

“The beach is too far from our city, so we make do with
a homemade swimming pool at the back yard.”

In this example, the speaker has a homemade swimming pool at his backyard. Instead of travelling for hours just to get to the beach, he and his family can take a dip at home.

“Don’t be silly! If you run out of tomato sauce, you shouldn’t
make do with ketchup! That will ruin the taste!”

Here, the speaker is telling a person, who is cooking spaghetti, about
an ingredient he shouldn’t substitute with something else.
(Ketchup instead of tomato sauce? Seriously?)

“I really wanted to see Kanye West perform on stage but I can’t leave
my brother at home alone. I guess I’ll have to make do with
watching YouTube videos of the concert that people post on line. ”

We can also see that in these examples, we use “make do with” if the
subjects have no choice but to settle for a less satisfactory substitute.
(By the way, Kanye West is NOT my favorite rapper.)

There you have it! You now know how to use the phrase “make do with”. That wasn’t too difficult, was it? Now you are officially one phrase smarter than you were! Until next time!
