How to Always Succeed in School

Part 4

Read. You can read whatever you want. Sports Illustrated, Jet, The New York Time, 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 book or materials, this way, you can mark, highlight, cross reference, write notes in the margins, etc. If the book belongs 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.
