What school in New Mexico offers a good pharmacy program?
I heard about a school down there that will bring you down if you have a 3.5 gpa or above, and offer in-state tuition to an out of state student and has a pharmacy program or something of the likes... What's it called?

U of New Mexico offers a pharmacy program. Do you mean WICHE? If your state doesn't have a pharmacy school and you get into another WICHE state school, you qualify for in-state tuition.

What is a reasonable rate for teaching ESL to parents at a private school in Mexico?
What is a reasonable rate for teaching ESL to parents at a private school in Mexico?
I have been asked to submit a proposal for teaching ESL to the parents of the kids that attend a private school in Mexico. Is it appropriate to propose that I get paid according to how many students I have or per class per hour? I am a first time teacher of ESL and not familiar with how this works.

In Mexico usually teachers in private schools are paid per hour....
2 :
People don't usually base their pay according to number of students unless you're tutoring one-on-one. I got paid $15/hour in the US. Not sure if that's possible in Mexico, but you can always ask for $10-15/hour.
3 :
Hi. First it is EFL, not ESL for Mexico. Secondly, are you getting paid by your students or by an institute? If you are getting paid by the students, decide what you want for an hour rate and divide that by the number of students in your class times how many class periods you have. But remember for each 1 hour of class time it usually takes 1 hour of out of class time for prep and admin work associated with the class, so remember that when you are making up your own costs. To this you should add the cost of transportation and materials, I predict 20% of my hourly rate will go into materials. So here is a quick calculation. If you want 20 USD an hour and have 4 students in your class, for 12 sessions and it costs you 2 USD for transport ion each way.: 20 (hourly rate wanted) x 2(for teaching and prep time) + 4 (for materials per class) + 4 (for transportation x 12 (number of sessions) you get 576 USD. Now divide this by 4 (the number of students) and you get 144 USD. Round it up to 149 USD and that is the cost per student for all the classes. http://fundingtravel.com

Fernando, Unfortunately, there are several things working against you... First, student visas are for foreigners who want to study in the US. You need to apply first at a school who then accepts you. Normally you have to be 18 to do this, and it is normally for college level education. Secondly, under the law you cannot change your status while you are inside the US. So, in your case, since you are illegal, you cannot change to another visa while staying in the US and all of a sudden "become legal". Unlike some other posters I'm not going to judge you or you family for coming the to US, illegally or not. However those are the rules. Good luck.

Mexican exchange student wanted?
Mexican exchange student wanted?
I've had several wonderful experiences with exchange students from France and China and would like to have a student from Mexico for the 09-10 school year. I'm wondering if it is possible to arrange this privately without going through an agency as the agency fees are so high for the student's family. I live in central California.

How can a fresh from college 3D animation student get into the bizz?
How can a fresh from college 3D animation student get into the bizz?
So I just graduated from CNM with a certificate in computer animation, I'm not bad and my teacher said I should look for work right away rather then go get more schooling. Any good tips or help on how to get into the business? I'd really like to do background/prop modeling for either movies or games. Live in new mexico by the way, not much around here for big companies.

Lol... no offense I love the idea that you are passionate about this, and it makes me happy to see that at least you can turn on your computer, but there's not a lot out there for a 3d animator... try to get on at an advertisement company.. that's a good idea.
2 :
To be honest, I have to question the remarks from your teacher.While there are always going to be talented, prodigy type students, the role of the teacher is not to discourage further development. If you are really serious, you must understand that the professionals in animation and game development rely on very complex math and physics skills that are in many cases at the Phd, level. While the certificate may have taught you to the basics, they will not guarentee you a position, esspecially when you are competing with someone who has "Dr." in front of thier name. If you choose not to go to school, the only advise that I can give is to work on as many projects as you can on your own. If you can't show an extensive educational background, then the only other asset will get people to take you seriously is proven experience. Both are recommended for best results. I have been working as a software developer for about 9 years. Before that I was a self taught graphic designer. I am currently finishing my second degree and plan to back just to stay competative in the industry.

Only getting a certificate in something is like a high school diploma now-a-days. You need at least a bachelors to be even considered for a good job. You might be good, but they need more than that to even consider you. If you want to look for internships at companies, while continuing your education, you might have a shot. Not trying to rain on your parade, but its tough out here. I have a Bachelors in Web Development and Associate of Applied Science, but I still can't get work. So I freelance for now. If there is nothing near you look further out, or worse, think about moving. Arizona and Cali aren't that far from you. Good luck and I hope you decide to get more education. P.S. Your teacher needs to be fired!!!

My boyfriend got married to get his citizenship. He is still married, with his sisters girlfriend. Its all business. He wants to marry me already so I can have his medical benefits. (Im a student w/ a heart condition) He takes his test sometime late next year, so he cant divorce yet. Is it possible to marry in mexico and bring the paperwork to the U.S. as proof to receive the benefits? Also, is it too risky?

So you are here on Yahoo Answers looking for advice on committing a criminal act? He has married a citizen to get citizenship only. That's a Federal offense.

Every single state you go to, is a completely new Mexico. It depends on what part of Mexico you go to really. I'll try to sum it up as much as I can by regions since I was moving around the republic during my High School Years. I came here to Mexico in the first month of my Freshman year to study in the southeast Yucatan Penninsula in Merida. I found myself with maybe not the best looking people in the world but I was quickly bombarded with discipline and a sudden change in my grades. The people here were very nice to me and helped me out in every way they could. It was public High School then but it really improved my study habits without me noticing, I went from C's and B's in America to Straight A's for the rest of my life. Soon after I moved to the southwest in Puebla. I saw that the people there weren't as welcoming as they were in Merida but after 2-3 days they started knowing me and I made friends with them. It was a rural Public School but I learned so many life lessons. I learned how to make a living by myself using elements around me. I learned to plant crops, fruits, spices and at the same time I learned how to cook some VERY delicious meals. After that I moved to Puerto Angel, Oaxaca and also assisted public High School. The people there were almost as welcoming as they were in Merida. I also learned a lot more lessons about life. I learned how to fish, snorkel, and I made friends who even taught me how to surf pretty good. My school was basically by the sea and I learned a lot about sea life over there. Also I was surprised finding a lot of European/Asian kids at my school. After that I moved to Mexico City and attended PRIVATE high school at UNITEC and finished the rest of my High School there. I have to say I was very surprised, some days I felt like I was back in American High School but with a much calmer environment. There were pretty good looking people at the school, everyone was nice and minded only their own business. School seemed surprisingly easy and I learned excellent study habits. I made so many new friends and even made friends who were foreign exchange who I could speak English and french with. They showed me around the city. I thought Mexico City was dangerous from what I heard of back when I lived in Las Vegas but when I met my friends they showed me that it isn't bad. They showed me how to walk in certain streets, what neighborhoods not to go into and how to act and even how to properly swear off another "chilango" (Mexico city inhabitant). I saw the most 'dangerous' streets of Mexico (Tepito, La Merced, Iztapalapa, Cuidad Nesa) and never got robbed, assaulted, or even experienced violence. I could probably count more people getting beat up and shot in Las Vegas than in Mexico City.
