I want to persue my masters but because of some health issues i am not able to join regular college should i opt for distance course . Will it be helpful if i am interested in teaching .

Ans: Hey, if you're thinking about becoming a teacher, I recommend going for a traditional in-person course instead of an online or distance learning program. You'll learn better in a regular class setting compared to online courses. So, I suggest pursuing your postgraduate studies through a traditional program

Asked on - Oct 02, 2024 | Answered on Oct 05, 2024

I know that traditional program will be better but my health is a concern here is the prblm . I get sick as i consume food from outside or hostel foods . Cooking everyday will be also a difficult job as one has to attend classes also . Please suggest what will be best as i have also taken year gap bcz of this concern. And if i go for distance learning program will it be a waste or be beneficial for my future.

Ans: "I strongly suggest that you attend regular classes instead of virtual ones. While virtual classes offer many teaching methods, they cannot replace traditional in-person learning. Additionally, you may not receive as much support in virtual classes.

Cooking before attending classes should not be an issue. You have already completed your undergraduate degree and are mature enough to handle this for a maximum of 10 months. In your second year of postgraduate studies, you will be working on a project, so food issues will not be a concern at that time.

To succeed in life, it is important to plan your day in advance. As a woman, cooking should not be an issue.

I cook my food on a daily basis and go to work (working as an associate professor). I handle 3 subjects (chemistry-based) and need to teach for 4-5 hours a day. Compared to students, teachers have to prepare a lot. If I feel stressed about food concerns, it becomes very difficult for me to focus during classes.
So, for better knowledge acquisition, attend regular classes."

Ans: Considering your background you can do a full time MBA. Another option is to try for Executive MBA if you will have more than 5 years experience by next year. There is not much scope of Distance MBA and should be done only if you are not able to leave your job.

Hi, am 28yr old mother from kerala. Due to personal issues i could only finish my studies till +2. Now am willing to continue my studies but confused about what to choose. Should i take degree or anyother courses ?

Ans: Choose a field that genuinely interests you and aligns with your passions. Consider how much time you can dedicate to your studies and whether you need flexibility due to personal commitments. Afterward think about what kind of job or career you envision for yourself and what qualifications are necessary for that path.

1-Skill Development Programs:
Vocational Training: If you're interested in a particular trade or skill, vocational training programs can provide hands-on experience and practical knowledge.

Government Schemes: Look into government initiatives and skill development programs in India that support education and training for various sectors.

2-Diploma and Certificate Courses:
Short-Term Courses: If you prefer a quicker route to enter the workforce or gain specific skills, consider diploma or certificate courses. These can be in various fields such as IT, healthcare, accounting, and more.

Online Courses: Platforms like Coursera, edX, and Udemy offer a wide range of online courses that you can take at your own pace. These are great for upskilling in specific areas without committing to a full degree program.

3-Bachelor's Degree: If you're looking for a comprehensive education and a recognized qualification, pursuing a bachelor's degree could be beneficial. It can open up a wide range of career opportunities and provide a solid foundation in your chosen field.

Distance Learning: Many universities offer distance learning programs, allowing you to study from home and manage your time around your personal commitments.

Based on your preference you can opt from above.

I am a 45 year old man. My problem is that I can't look people in the eye and talk. My strict upbringing may have made me an unnecessarily polite and timid person. I cannot exercise my authority at work when necessary. How do I get out of this personality?

Ans: it is great you know you need to work on yourself - join public speaking sessions, work on your confidence , know that saying a no is not being rude - this will require you to do a lot of reflection and talking to yourself - all the best.

Hi Sir, My Son is studying in 11th std with PCMCs and preparing both for NATA and CET. He was an average student in tenth scoring 55%, we are hoping for better performance in his 12th board. Currently we are staying in Bangalore. We need your suggestion in choosing between BArch or BE (Civil/Mech/Electrical). Which one will be better for him in difficulty level, fee structure, future job prospects and if he wants to Masters, whether he can continue in India or abroad. If abroad which countries or university are good for him for masters. Thank you

Ans: In B.Arch difficulty level is less but he must be good in drawing. A candidate who is bad in drawing can't be an Architect, even if he becomes he will fail in professional life. BE (Civil/Mech/Electrical) needs good knowledge of Maths and Physics. From his 10th score it seems to be he is an below average student. Fee structure is mostly same in both. For Masters we can think afterwards, no question of long term planning. In abroad always USA is the best for Engineering. Best of luck. Regards.

Im afarid to express my love to a women. She is very good looking and much more than that she had a good character. But the main problem arises is she is 171cm and I'm 165cm. I'm afraid may be I will get rejected. I love her so much. Should i I leave her and move on. And one thing also i don't even talk to her, I'm afraid to talk. Can you give some tips to talking also

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand your concern but how will you know whether height is an issue for her until you go ahead and speak to her? If you are worried about confessing your feelings for her directly, it's best you take things slow. Anyways, people are more likely to take such confessions on a positive note if they know the person.

You can start with a Hi, followed by letting her know that you have seen her around quite a few times. You can ask her what she does, and other general questions. Don't do it all in a single day; try building rapport slowly. This way you won't be putting too much pressure on yourself or on her.

Best Wishes.
