STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

"THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION EVER FOR  CHOOSING ANY PART OF WHAT YOU KNOW TO BE EVIL."

AYN RAND

( NOVELIST, PHILOSOPHER, PLAYWRIGHT, SCREENWRITER)


It's like how some super-villains use their brains or money for evil. Use what you got, for good. Use it to help others, to do great things, and to improve life. If you can make change happen then i feel you have a duty to do so. Evil can never end in anything good. Some of us know so much and use it to harm others. An example is if your good with computers, help others with their computers, don't send viruses. Be good.

Tip 5

Tip 5: keep a list of questions
When you feel confused about something you’re reading, write it down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they’ve read the text and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner.

Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to others, is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.
The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book… and a pen.

" WHEN I WAS TEACHING BASKETBALL, I URGED MY PLAYERS TO TRY THEIR HARDEST TO IMPROVE ON THAT VERY DAY, TO MAKE THAT PRACTICE A MASTERPIECE.
THIS RULE IS EVEN MORE IMPORTANT IN LIFE THAN IN BASKETBALL. BY APPLYING YOURSELF TO THE TASK OF BECOMING A LOT BETTER.  YOU HAVE TO APPLY YOURSELF EACH DAY TO BECOME JUST A LITTLE BETTER  EACH AND EVERY DAY OVER A PERIOD OF TIME, YOU WILL BECOME A LOT BETTER. ONLY THEN WILL YOU BE ABLE TO APPROACH BEING THE BEST YOU CAN BE. IT BEGINS BY TRYING TO MAKE EACH DAY COUNT AND KNOWING YOU CAN NEVER MAKE UP FOR A LOST DAY."

JOHN WOODEN


You only live once. I mean it's true, you have to make each day count and try a little harder each day to improve and to do better and work harder. When you do work harder you end up doing better the next time you do it.  You'll be more sure of yourself and you will do better and try harder to do better and you're going to be great. So make the moments count, including the entire day.

Tips 3-4

Tip 3: Do Research
Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly resources, not condensed study guides. Going the extra mile in your research elevates your achievement 10-fold.
Tip 4: Use a Dictionary
Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of unfamiliar words by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. Rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know. , take the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

"EVERY TIME IV'E DONE SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT, IT'S ENDED UP NOT BEING RIGHT."

MARIO CUOMO
(52ND GOVERNOR OF NY)


It's true when we do something that isn't right, it won't end up right.
Like if we steal and get caught or if we don't get caught we live with the guilt for the rest of our lives just thinking of it. or if we lie about something the truth will either come out eventually or it will haunt us for some time and then more lies will pile on top of it as well. Or how about if we tell someone something we felt we shouldn't say and they never speak to you again or even worst tell you something in return you didn't want to hear from them. Just follow your gut if it feels right then it's right.

5 tips for success

Reading and writing go hand in hand. The better you understand a text, the more likely you are to successfully communicate your thoughts about it in writing. So it’s important to develop strong skills in both areas. With that in mind, here’s how to improve your reading comprehension.
Tips 1-2

 Tip 1: Annotate
Be an active reader. Instead of passively reading a text, take notes about important story elements, key factual information and significant ideas in the text.
Tip 2: Note the author’s writing style
Every author writes with a purpose, using deliberate methods to successfully relate specific information to the audience. When you’re reading, look for patterns in the author’s writing. For example, you may notice a repetition of key words, phrases or symbols-of the use of distinct type of sentence structure.  Authors employ these writing strategies to help readers comprehend a central argument or theme, so be sure to explore how these techniques create meaning.
