When teaching new vocabulary, how many times should you encourage the student to repeat the word back to you?
hram777 [196]

It doesn't have to involve sitting down for hours; little and often will help get vocabulary into students long term memory.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Interview

Explanation:

An interview is an official conversation between an interviewer and interviewee. The purpose of the interview is to asses whether the interviewee qualifies to hold the position. The interview process usually takes place on the employer premises. Apart from academic and work experience, the recruiting manager assesses other qualities that would make the candidate suitable to work in that organization. Such traits may include teamwork and leadership.

When conducting interviews, an employer will invite several qualified candidates.  The interviewer or the interviewing panel scores each candidate and selects the best. The interview presents the candidate with an opportunity to learn fine details about a potential employer. Specific detail about the job, such as the terms and conditions, are disclosed.

You are attending college in the fall and you need to purchase a computer. You must finance the purchase because your parents wi
rodikova [14]

The correct answer is installment credit. The explanation is below.

Installment credit allows you to purchase an item and then pay for it in installments. The reason that this would be the best option for you is that you do not have the money now to make the purchase, but you are able to make smaller monthly payments in order to purchase a computer.

Installment credit is better than revolving credit for new borrowers. Revolving credit would allow you to charge additional purchases on your revolving credit account. The installment plan only finances one item, rather than like a credit card, which is how revolving credit works. You would not choose non-installment credit because this would require you to make this payment all at once in a short period of time. It would not allow you to spread the payments out over time.
