Successful Students

Part 2

4. Successful students learn that a student and a teacher make a team.  Most of the teachers want exactly what they want: they would like for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grade.

Successful students reflect well on the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned your material. the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructors, they are not an enemy, you share the same interest, the same goals- in short, you’re teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player!

 

5. Successful students don’t sit in the back. Successful students minimize classroom distractions that interfere with learning. Students want the best seat available for their entertainment dollars, but willingly seek the worst seat for their educational dollars. Students who sit in the back cannot possibly be their teacher’s teammate (see bo,4). Why do they expose themselves to the temptations of inactive classroom experience and distractions of all the people between them and their instructor? Of course, we know they chose the back of the classroom because they seek invisibility….
