I’d like to share some experience in studying. If you want to be a good student, you must do three things.
First, you must preview lessons for tomorrow in order to follow the teacher easily. Find out the points you don’t understand in advance. Second, you must listen to the teacher very carefully in class. This is very important because the teacher will explain the problems very clearly. Third, you must finish your homework on time. After you do homework, you will know what you have learned more clearly.
Hopefully you can enjoy your school life and have a bright future.
