How to Always Succeed

In School

Part 4

Read: You can read whatever you want. Sports Illustrated, Jet, The New York Times, comic books, the Holy Bible, your Cherrios box, online blogs, or web articles … whatever! Reading increases your brainpower.

·    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 friend, 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 you own books and materials; this way, you can mark, highlight, cross reference, write notes in the margins, etc. If the books belong to someone 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.
