<br /><br />
Happy Thanksgiving and welcome to the last episode of The Cook Book, season 1.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
The holidays are my favorite part of the year, but the things that make it so special for me are all of the traditions that my family and I partake in such as cooking Thanksgiving dinner together, baking pies, and watching a great game of football.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Thanksgiving is as much about gratitude and being thankful for the small things in life, as it is about baking a turkey or pumpkin pie; more importantly, it's a time to give back and help those in need.<br /><br />
<br /><br />

INNOVATIVE WEB SERIES THE COOK BOOK CREATES BUZZ AMONG EDUCATORS<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Educational Show Teaches Interactive Activities and Nutrition to Students K-12<br /><br />
<br /><br />
August 24, 2015 – Long Beach, CA – Tutor for Tots, Tweens and Teens LLC—an in-home tutoring company for students K-12— will premier its educational web series, “The Cook Book” on Wednesday, September 9, 2015.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
“The Cook Book” web series is an extension of Tutors for Tots’ supplemental educational services for students in grades K-12. The twelve-episode series correlates with the company’s in-home tutoring niche by providing interactive educational videos that children can watch in the comfort of their home and classroom.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
Dupé Aleru, founder and owner of Tutors for Tots, exemplifies a hands-on approach to learning, while engaging the viewer’s senses on multiple levels. By utilizing taste, touch, look, and feel within each episode, “The Cook Book” increases both retention and comprehension by touching on the three main cognitive learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
“Learning is most effective when lessons are hands-on, and students are able to manipulate what they’ve learned on their own,” explains Aleru. “My goal was to create a web series that’s innovative, yet current. We live in a technological society where children have the option to learn on their own by just a click of a button. ‘The Cook Book’ gives students that option.”<br /><br />
<br /><br />
The title “The Cook Book,” is a creative play with words, fusing together educational lessons with nutritional cooking. Each week the episodes will feature a two-minute educational segment—lessons and activities—the “book” portion of its name; and a two- minute cooking segment—recipes and cooking— the “cook” portion of its name.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
The education segment will engage children by producing exciting educational lessons and activities that teachers can implement inside the classroom as educational demo videos during workshop, or whole group instruction. Most lessons support the Common Core Standards. In addition, the cooking segment dishes up creative recipes that student’s can replicate at home or school with minimal adult supervision. Co-host Chantal Jura, creates quick and simple healthy meals that can seamlessly tie in with health lessons at school. Furthermore, the recipes are designed to be easy and fun, while maintaining the health guidelines provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.<br /><br />

He began our program in March of 2014 for tutoring in reading, writing and mathematics.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0in;">
<span style="color: windowtext;">Last
month, Kris’ tutor worked with him on spelling, math facts and fractions. Kris
did such a wonderful job on his math. As a reward, his tutor let him play a
math game on an iPad. He was more accurate with his answers and less overwhelmed
when playing the game; therefore, his tutor began to incorporate it as a part
of their system to learning math facts. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Community outreach, though not essential for the survival of a business, encourages generosity in the company so they can use their wealth to bring together a struggling community. Although larger, more developed companies may spend money on outreach projects, it is becoming evident that wealth is not a prerequisite to serving your community. In reality, it is possible to serve the community without the exchange of money, allowing small businesses to give back as well. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tutors for Tots is a great example of how the size and age of a company does not need to be a hindrance in community involvement. This young business is establishing a mentorship program at Beach High School, a school in Long Beach for high school students who are missing credits. As a part of their outreach project, Tutors for Tots is finding students at CSU, Long Beach who are able to serve at Beach High School for academic credit. As mentors, these college students will help these high school students with their school work and encourage confidence in academics. This project is allowing Tutors for Tots to serve the community, providing additional assistance for the students at Beach High School, and allowing CSULB students to receive academic credit for meaningful work. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
No money needs to be spent for this community outreach project to be successful and all three groups can benefit from its establishment. Tutors for Tots' work at Beach High School is simply one example of how wealth and size are not always necessary to serve your community. Even small businesses have their own specialities and talents, they just need to find away to use what they already have to serve the people around them. Giving back to the community may not always be free, but I guarantee you will always gain from whatever you lose. </div>

Where do you go to find the answer to a question? Years ago, people researched information at the library, newspaper, or even turned to the wisdom of those more experienced. However, as technology is becoming available to more people, our questions can be answered with ease with just the click of a button. I have realized that often when I ask someone a question, they respond, "I don't know - Google it." The fact that "Google" has become its own verb further emphasizes the impact of technology on the sharing of information.<br />
<br />
When trying to learn life skills from the internet, we mostly search "How to [anything]", and many sites, blogs and forums will appear that give you instant answers to life's daily struggles, no matter how mundane or critical they may be. However, many of these informational posts are extremely worth while, especially in the world of education.<br />
<br />
Many teachers enjoy learning new methods to help their students understand challenging topics that are often difficult to grasp with traditional teaching methods. Dupe Aleru has partnered up with eHow, the ultimate place to go for "how-to" information. Whatever you are trying to learn, no matter how far fetched it may be, eHow most likely has an article about it. As a teacher, tutor, author, and business owner, Dupe Aleru has developed effective ways to teach challenging topics to students in a way that is easier to understand. Her unique perspective was recognized by eHow, so they filmed many educational "How To" videos of Dupe for their site. <br />
<br />
Because of their success on eHow and YouTube, Dupe Aleru has been featured on Demand Media: Content Solutions for her educational videos. Congrats Dupe! It is always exciting to have your talent recognized on such a large scale. Next time you are learning for the internet, no matter what it may be, take a moment to appreciate the ease of obtaining this information, and the people who originally presented the information to you.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12246687934229547183noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6014397719752534511.post-71622347487616495562013-09-25T08:20:00.001-07:002013-09-25T08:20:29.200-07:00Over the Top Birthday Party Trends<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">By Dupé Aleru|Ed Enterprise|September 25, 2013</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Let’s take a look back into the past. In the early
1990’s, birthday parties consisted of a local grocery store birthday cake,
colorful latex balloons, a few gifts from friends and of course a birthday card
with money from grandma and grandpa. Children were entertained by merely
dancing to music streaming from a boom box, pinning the tail on a donkey, and
let’s not forget hitting that piñata filled with every child’s favorite candy. Oh
yes, those were the good old days. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Flash forward to 2013, birthday parties are now a
gala event. Living in cities such as Los Angeles, Orange County and Dallas Texas,
parents compete to have the most hip party of the year—we’re talking about 2,
3, 4, and 5-year-old birthdays.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Spending $10,000 for a birthday may seem outrageous
to some, but for others, it’s a norm. Birthday planners are called to save the
day as they are seen as the new superheroes of the century. From snow machines
in the summer to a petting zoo in the backyard, there’s nothing they can’t pull
off. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Invites set the tone for a child’s birthday. Picture
an invitation as the first impression for the gala event. Parents as well as
children like to know, who, what, where, when and how. Creating a fun and
innovative invitation will create buzz about the future extravaganza that will

Whether it’s a costume character or a destination location (ex. Disneyland),
parties can be extremely fun and entertaining. The key is to choose a theme and
plan around it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">A hot trend today, that you see at birthday parties
are photo booths. There’s not a better way to make a child’s special day most
memorable, other than taking lots and lots of pictures. Photo booths are a fun
and creative way that allow children to make their own memories as they play
dress up before they say “cheese”. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">As guests are starting to leave the event, a great
way to say thank you is to give them a parting favor. Who </span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 17.5px;">wouldn't</span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"> like a party
favor from the most amazing birthday event of the year? Absolutely no one! Children
love to go home with gifts so trendy parties surely must have goodie bags for
their guests as a parting favor. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">I’m sure twenty years from now, parents will up the
ante. As for now, enjoy celebrating your child’s most precious moments with
love, family, friends and entertainment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Lola Aleru, former Program Manager for the Exploratorium in San Francisco, is the new face of Sound Uncovered, a new innovative educational app for the iPad. This creative new app is the 2nd iPad app developed by Exploratorium staff. The fist app, Colored Uncovered, drew over one million downloads; hence, the need for making a second app.<br />
<br />
Aleru, the sister of Tutors for Tots Founder Dupe Aleru, currently lives in Nairobi Kenya working as a Program Manager for Aquaya Institute. Aleru spent the last decade managing muli-million dollar projects as a program manager for various non profit organizations in the Bay Area. In addition, she was an integral part of the Society for Advancement for Chicanos and Native Americans in Science from 1999 - 2006 in Santa Cruz, California.<br />
<br />
With a B.A. in Business Management Economics from the University of California, Santa Cruz, Aleru deems to have an impressive resume and work experience in business management.<br />

As a former Long Beach educator, Dupé Aleru knows what it takes to help students find success in school.</div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"></span><span class="paragraph-1" style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 18px;">
Aleru, who was laid off from the Long Beach Unified School District in 2010, began Tutors for Tots, Tweens and Teens the same year as a way to continue helping youngsters who may be struggling in school.</div>

The business grew out of Aleru’s living room into a new business office, which will host a grand opening celebration this Saturday, at 5541 E. 7th St.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 5px 5px 18px;">
“The grand opening of the business office is a milestone in my life, so I want to go big,” Aleru said. “I like to do everything big and glamorous.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 5px 5px 18px;">
Aleru and her team of credentialed instructors work one-on-one with students in their homes, which provides the children with intensive instruction and also keeps them away from any distractions.</div>
