- What does "as above so below" mean?
I met this phrase in the book and I was wondering about the meaning of "as above, so below." Here is the context where I met this phrase: In the meticulously designed garden, the arrangement of the flowers and paths reflected the harmony of the stars above, truly embodying the principle "as above, so below."

It simply compares the harmony of the flowers to that of the stars... meaning same harmonous path the stars portray above (in the sky), it's same with the flowers below.

- Do you often find yourself splitting hairs over life matters?
Who is familiar with the idioms "splitting hairs" ? Splitting hairs = to discuss, argue, hang out in the trivial details of something. Imagine if you guys decide to split a strand of hair into small pieces... How relevant would that be? Not at all right? So whenever we discuss about trivial, unimportant matters, we are splitting hairs (over something)

- Dear students, What is the difference between mustn't and don't have to?

Hi, I'm not sure if students can answer teachers' questions in the ASK COMMUNITY section. Check out the explanation and examples given below. MUSTN'T is used to indicate that something is prohibited or forbidden. It suggests that there's a strong obligation not to do something, and there may be consequences for not complying. E.g. You mustn't smoke in this building. DON'T HAVE TO is used to indicate that something is not necessary or required. E.g. You don't have to come to the meeting if you don't want to.

I suggest making an eye-catching profile that highlights your abilities and credentials, creating interesting course material, promoting your courses through various channels, taking part in the ASK COMMUNITY section, and asking for the feedback from your students. Building a presence and reputation takes time and effort, so be patient and keep refining your strategies. Good luck!
