Successful
students part 2
3. Successful students learn that a
student and a teacher make a team. Most teachers want exactly what you want: they
would like for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a
good grade.
Successful students reflect well on
the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned your material, the instructor
takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor,
they are not an enemy, you share the same interests, the same goals – in short,
you’re teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players
on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes
to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player!
5. Successful students don’t sit in
the back. Successful students minimize classroom distractions that interfere
with learning. Students want the best seat available for their entertainment dollars,
but willingly seek the worst seat for their educational dollars.
Students who sit in the back cannot
possibly be their teacher’s teammate (see no. 4). Why do they expose themselves
to the temptations of inactive classroom experiences and distractions of all
the people between them and their instructor?
Choose the right!!
