"I've set up a homework corner for my fifth grader. Everything that Elizabeth needs to do her homework is there, ready for use. I've found that this way she gets started right away instead of wasting a lot of time scrambling around and looking for things. This has really cut down on her procrastinating. "

"Write a question on a sheet of paper, then fold it in half (hot dog style), flip it, and write the answer to the question. Then study it and try to answer it yourself without reading the answers."

"Go through your syllabus before the lecture. In fact, consider the lecture as a revision class session. If there's something that you don't know, then first try your own available resources, and , of course, the Internet, to get a genuine solution. This makes you self reliant and improves your creativity at the same time."

"After I read a chapter in a text, I write out an outline. This helps me organize the information in a way that I find makes it easier for me to remember. I try not to write too much. "

"In class, always pay attention to what the teacher is saying. When I was younger the teacher always told us to listen very well because in what she said were the answers. It would be hard to understand the lesson otherwise. Pay attention and listen well and everything will get really easy, and don't be shy to ask the teacher questions."

"After the lecture is over, I go through what the lecturer thought and said. Then I come back to my room, take a nap, and then go over again. This way it sticks better in my mind."
