How To Be A Better Student Portland OR

Steps

1. When you are comparatively free of homework start revising for your classes.
2. Study definitions and complete some exercises.
3. Take notes in class and make sure they are neat, so you can read them later on.
4. Look over the next capters in your textbooks [see warnings] and skim over it. So the next day, you will understand more when your teacher explains.
5. Pay attention during class. If you don't pay attention it will be almost impossible for you understand the lesson by yourself.
6. Participate!
7. Ask to seek clarification.
8. If you have homework due on Monday that was assigned on Friday, don't be doing it at 11 p.m. on Sunday. Manage your time.
9. Presentation matters! Say you have to complete a map on the names of all the states in the U.S. and their capitals. Do it neatly, add color and you could even cover it with contact paper. Try typing it if you have bad handwriting.

Tips

• If you have your homework due on Monday and it's Friday start with the basics. Leave a little bit more work for Saturday and then on Sunday do the finishing touches.
• It's better if you cover your work with contact paper, as it will protect it from being damaged, broken and it'll look better.

Warnings

• Some teachers don't go by the book, and tend to skip chapters at a time. If you know your teacher is like this, ask ahead before studing future topics, or even avoid doing this all together.
• If you like to add glitter to your work, don't exaggerate too much. It may even look awful.
• Don't exaggerate with what you put on your project. It's just a project, not a contest to see which project attracts the most attention. Don't overdo it.
