2·1 year agoThere is absolutely no substitute for a live, in-person voice teacher to guide your practice. Shop around—take a first lesson with a few options and try to evaluate who’s got the best technique and pedagogy. Also, this is a great goal and very achievable—go for it!
Plus, added reliability!
3·1 year ago- FFX by a lot. The story, setting, music, and turn-based battle just can’t be beat for me. (Just X here; X-2 feels too different and I don’t care for it.)
- FFXII. The setting is awesome, the open world feels amazing to explore, and the gambit system is original and fun.
- FFVII Remake. I somehow managed to miss the iconic FFVII, and decided to go into Remake blind—it’s fantastic so far, and I’m excited for the next one.
- FFXIII and FFXIII-2. Another fantastic setting, and the story is great (although I had to read every datalog entry multiple times to understand it). The paradigm system that shifts battle focus from individual actions to large-scale strategy is unique and interesting. Sadly, FFXIII-3’s writing took a nosedive IMO, and FFXIII-2 ends on a cliffhanger, so the series feels unfinished.
- FFVIII. It’s weird, but it’s cute, and I had fun watching the story get crazier and crazier. I don’t love the drawing system for magic, so battle isn’t my favorite.
Last, I’m only a few hours in, but I can already tell FFXVI is going to be on this list, probably near the top!
By giving time DURING the school day to get the job done, and minimizing red tape. One major problem is that the larger and more heterogenous classes get, the more grading and planning work piles up, and the harder it is to help individuals during class with one-on-one attention. So the teacher ends up using their grading, planning, and lunch time to meet with those students later, and takes all that paperwork home. Administration piles even more kids into the class, saying, “You’re not overworked: it was your CHOICE to teach through your break,” because they know full well that anyone who chose this profession is going to have a hard time drawing that line when they know there are struggling kids who need the help.
