5 Tips for Success
Tip: Keep a List of Questions
When you feel confessed about something you’re reading write 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 materials. 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 asking questions as you read. Questioning  immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand will expand you mental capacities more than anything else.

The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to getting important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book … and a pen.

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.

Rather than simply skipping ever the words you don’t know, take this 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.

5 Tips for Staying Motivated
Tips 1-2
To succeed in High School College, you have to do your best at all times. But sometimes it’s hard to stay motivated, even when you really care about the work you’re doing. Here are five ways to stay on the right track.
1. Focus on High-Impact Activities
The key to success in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall picture of your workload before you start to tackle any of it. Then, make a plan. Although it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first, those that take more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones that you’ll learn the most from.
To determine what your priorities are, rank your assignments to the order of their importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on your course work grades. For example, even though all homework assignments are important, studying for midterm exam takes priority ever writing a paragraph for English class. As you completed each task, think of it as another step on your way to college success.
2.   Create New Challenges
Changing your approach can help you stay interested In what you’re doing, if you’ve been given an assignment similar to one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a different way. If you wrote and essay for a creative writing assignment last year, try a poem this time. For book reports, pick a history book instead of another biography.

Distance Education: Is a Virtual Classroom for You?
Part 4 of 4
Emphasis on the Written Word
Most of the communication, as well as the course work, in distance-learning classes is written. That’s a plus, because the focus on the written word gives you the opportunity to develop as a writer – and strong writing is a serious weakness for you, virtual education may not be the best educational option until you improve your skill. Yes most of distance education is the written word; therefore, you need to be a good reader, love to read, and love writing also. Most of your assignments will be written and submitted to the instruction in the written format. Your penmanship needs to be excellent, spelling great, sentence structure above average, vocabulary extraordinary. You need to have online access with reliable equipment. If your Internet communication at home isn't working you can’t do online education from home and will need to go to someplace where you do have access to the Internet.
Decide Whether It’s Right for You
Distance education isn't for everyone, but it just might be for you. You really should seek it out and give it a try. You never know until you try. You might even fall in love with distance education. While distance education might be the perfect alternative for some students, it’s not the right choice for everyone. So carefully consider your unique needs and interests and give distance education a try; then, decide if it’s right for you.

Challenging Aspects of Distance Education
·       Look of in-person interactions: Some educators argue that both teacher-student and student-student contact are essential to learning. In classroom, you may be able to participate in classroom discussions online in chat rooms, message boards or Web conferences – but it’s not the same as being with other students in a classroom.
·       Different levels of quality: Many distance-education programs supply an excellent learning experience, but others may not. Research any program signing on to make sure it is rigorous enough. If you are choosing your own program, look into its accreditation before enrolling.
·       The need to self-start: Distance Education lets you make your own schedules. If you have a hard time getting motivated, this might not be the ideal educational setting for you.
