If you are interested, VIPKid is just the program for you!

VIPKid is an online education program that teaches English to children in China ages four to twelve. The program pairs each child with their own teacher. Additionally, VIPKid is ranked first according to Forbes Top 100 Remote Work Companies.

You can make up to $22 an hour working for VIPKid. Each teacher is able to set their own schedule and the hours vary from one hour per week up to twelve hours a day. The only requirement to be apart of the VIPKid team is that you must have a Bachelor's degree. Some people choose to make working for VIPKid full-time and others choose to be a part-time worker.

VIPKid's mission is "to inspire and empower every child for the future. In order to do this, we have embarked on a better way to teach foreign languages. We encourage curiosity, critical thinking and creativity from our teachers and students." The curriculum uses a flipped-classroom teaching method and is based on the U.S. Common Core system.

There are over 500,000 students and 60,000 teachers as of right now working for this awesome company. Right now on campus at NC State, I have the privilege of being one of the four brand ambassadors for my school. I will be campaigning for the next three months. I work to promote the company on social media through various Instagram posts. Also, I hand out flyers and put up posters around campus.

This is a great company to work for and I highly recommend any soon-to-be-graduates to apply for the job! Getting to make a difference and change lives while making money is a once in a lifetime chance.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.
