Ask for help in any class in which you find yourself falling behind. Remember, your teachers want to help you succeed.

Keep up with class assignments. Finish them before they are due.

Ask questions! If you don’t understand something, chances are others in the class don’t understand either.

Join in class

discussions.

Sit close to the front

when possible.

Plan a daily homework schedule and stick to it. Do more than is required.

Learn to take good class notes and get in the habit of reviewing your notes every day.
