Fail a Question later. There are no foolish questions, only foolish silence. It’s your choice.

3.  Learn that a student and professor make a team. Most instructors want exactly what you want: they would like you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grade.

Successful student reflect well on the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned you material, the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not an enemy, and you share the same interest, the same goals – in short, your team mates get to know your professor.

You’re the most valuable players on the team. You jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to chalk up a long season. Be a team player!

Part 2

My best study methods: I have different strategies for different types of test or subjects. For me, any type of math is exceptionally difficult so I had to spend extra time on that. I would go back through the homework problems focusing on the problems that I had extra difficulty on. Many times I would ask the teacher for additional study materials they could provide. If it was a class that required memorization or applying concepts I would create sort of study guide for myself many times focusing on what were they key focal points in the class. If I knew there were going to be essays I would try to take the terms and apply then to an example or create different questions on the concepts focused on throughout the semester.

My time management secret: I always always carry a plant with me. I even use different color highlighters to show what each event on my calendar is for. For example, pink is personal, yellow is school orange is work, blue is for appointments, I can see in bright yellow that is I have that project for finance due on Tuesday, I need to start working on it [the previous] Wednesday so I can  just get  it done. My Friends have always been amazed at how early I get things accomplished but that is really all I do.
