How to Always Succeed in School

Part 4

Read. You can read whatever you want: Sports, Illustrated, Jet, The New York Times, comic books, the holy bible, your Cheerios box, online blogs or web articles… whatever! Reading increases your

Brain power.

·    Look up words you don’t understand in the dictionary. 

 

·    Read assignment questions first to help you identify key points.

 

·    Take breaks from reading to write down what you learn.

 

·    Read outside of class to improve your reading skills. 

 

·    Read out loud with your friends, classmates or parents.

 

·    Read with a purpose.

 

·    Take reading courses to improve your reading rate and comprehension 

 

·    Take a speed-reading course if you desire 

 

·    Take notes while reading

 

When possible, read from your own books and materials. This way, you can mark, highlight, cross reference, write notes in the margins, etc. If the books belong to someone else or the

library, you can’t do this.

 

·    Read religious literature.

 

·    Read from the internet.

·    Read daily. Set a goal to read a book at least each month. Then a book a week.
