I learn best when I stay after school individually with the teacher I needed assistance from. I learn faster because I will be more focused and there are no distractions. I do not learn well in class as there are lots of distractions from other students ( kids yelling out answers, side talks and etc) I learn that I get better marks from staying after school with a teacher whom I can learn enthusiastically and be a good student.
I need to find time after school to get help individually from a teacher to explain in detail the concepts which I do not understand. I found out that, for example for my math, by staying after school, my grades go up higher. My resolution is to get better grades so that I can become a good student and have a better future.
The strategies that would help my learning is staying after school and go through what I learn in class in the morning. Staying after school is really worth my time. I get help individually and also I can ask as much question as I want without feeling shy. Practice is also a good strategy. Vince Lombardi once said “Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect." By practicing, we gain more understanding and when we gain more understanding, we will do well on quizzes or tests because the information needed is memorized.
I would like all my teachers to know that I would want to stay after school or at lunch break for immediate assistance. Staying after school is preferred to lunch breaks because it provides more time. Short lunch break is too short for me to learn.
Failing a test is an abhorrent to every nerves in my body; it is my duty as a student to persevere in improving my grades. My parents unanimously concluded that because of me playing too much video games and having gadgets can affect my studies and make me a lazy person. Today, I have come to realize that because of video games and gadgets (iPod, iPhone and etc) will affect my grades because I am not focused, particularly now when I am preparing for high-school next year with tougher challenges. I sincerely hope that I will do my very best in everything I do. I also would like to receive support from teachers to help me move forward in my learning.
