Matthew sat inside his car in the parking lot of Arnold's Chicken Palace. He arrived early for his job interview, and he wanted to make sure his attitude was stellar before going inside the restaurant. Unfortunately, he felt petrified. "I can't do this," he told his mother over the phone.
"Yes, you can, Matty," his mother said.
Matthew's hand shook while he pressed his cell phone more tightly against his ear. "All my potential employers have rejected me," he said. "What if nobody hires me?"
"Matthew, you can't think small. Remember who you are, remember your abilities, think about what you want, and then go after it. Shout at it if you have to."
"Shout at my potential job?"
"Sure, why not?" his mother replied. "I believe in you, and you can believe in yourself too."
After Matthew ended his phone call with his mother, he spent a few moments calming himself down. Come on, Matt, you can do this, he thought to himself. You'll be the best manager Arnold's Chicken Palace ever had. While taking deep breaths, he clenched his fists and felt strength surge through his muscular arms.
He closed his eyes and thought about all the other jobs he had interviewed for but did not get. He thought about his bills piling up. He knew this interview would be a very important one. Then he shouted as loudly as he could, "This job is mine!"
Matthew opened his eyes and saw a woman and a little girl walking past his car. They both scurried away quickly.
Embarrassed, Matthew waved at them and cleared his throat.
The day after his interview, Matthew received a phone call from the owner of Arnold's Chicken Palace. "I am very pleased to offer you the position of manager at my restaurant," the owner said. "You were a very impressive candidate for the job," he added. "How did you become such a confident person?"
Matthew clenched his fist and tried to not shout with excitement. With a smile, he replied, "I guess I just believe in myself."

Passage 1
Six reasons eLearning is the future of education

“E-learning was growing before the current pandemic took everyone by surprise, and the
current climate has only thrust it further into the limelight, creating a world where this
platform is more than just convenient – it’s necessary. The opportunities afforded those
who want to further their education keep expanding as necessity creates a space for e-
learning in the mainstream world. More and more adults are now enrolling in e-learning
courses, even when given the choice between that and more conventional options.
Aside from the pandemic, there are key reasons e-learning has emerged as the
future of continuing education:

More Program Options:

The flexibility that allows students to learn from anywhere also allows the creator of and
contributors to the e-learning platforms to provide and expand upon a wide array of
programs. Brick and mortar learning institutions are limited by space, teacher
availability, and other similar restraints. Just as students are no longer hindered by
location, neither are teachers. This allows teachers to teach from a variety of locations
and in variety of capacities. This expands the options considerably, creating an
opportunity to learn almost anything.”
