To get good grades and learn better in school students must develop positive attitude and effective studying habits.

It is never too late to develop great study habits. If you’re starting a new school year, or you just want to improve your grades and school performance; here are some habits you might want to adapt.

Some Effective Studying Habits:

• Always review the lesson plan prior to the class. This way you will be prepared for the lesson before time.
• Do your research on the topic that is going to be taught in the class. It will also give out good impression on the teacher.
• Make sure to take notes. Write down all the important points the teacher emphasizes during the lecture.
• Make sure you always have text books of the subjects with you.
• Reading before the class will give you an idea of what doesn’t make sense and you can ask questions from the teacher during the class.
• Highlight important points during lectures. Don’t make notes on what’s already in the book, it wastes your time and attention
• Remember always listen to your teacher carefully, because sometimes teacher gives out hints that what is going to come in the test. For instance; if teacher repeated something thrice, it is probably coming in the test.
• Before sleeping check out all your notes, assignments and projects.
• Don’t let social activities take priority before studying. If you have to be social, make sure it is educational as well; like getting together for study group etc.
• Plan your break, make schedule, and prioritize your work.
• Morning exercise and midnight walks are healthy stress relievers. And improves memory as well.
• If you are not the person to concentrate, try to lighten your load of classes
• Discover your key productivity periods and places. Morning, afternoon, or evening?
