Asking for Help

November 28, 2011 by My Grade Booster

* Ask lots of questions. Any question is a good question. There is a good chance that many of your classmates have the same question as you but are too shy to ask.

*Asking for help sooner is always better than later!

*Go to your teacher’s office hours and ask questions.

Goal of Education

All children have a natural learning ability and it is the proper goal of education to bring out the full potential of each student as an individual.

A student's education does not stop when school day is over. Much of the learning takes place at home. Research shows that on average, high school students need to set aside 1.5 hours of study time for every hour of classroom time. Those who have a supportive learning environment at home are more likely to succeed and receive entrance to the university or college of their choice.
