I have presented in this article a few tips about how one should study to gain maximum knowledge from his teacher in classroom and from his book outside the classroom. Following rules apply to both "marks-centric students" and knowledge-seeking students.
1. Be regular
Take all the classes. It is the most essential pre-requisite for learning. You cannot get away with this. You can miss extremely important points even by leaving a single class.
2. Take notes
Take down notes as much as possible. Try to write each and verything teacher utters in the class. There are certain things which teachers love to mention again and again. These are the things which you should know very well. Things that teacher mentions again and again or is very enthusiastic about is most likely to appear in your examination. Taking notes is important because thats what you will need to learn. Even if you are that kind of student who is not interested in studies, you should taken notes because they will be very beneficial near your exams.
3. Read your textbook
At the heart of your seeking knowledge lies the book reading. Books give you the detailed explanation of what you learnt in class. There are many topics that you cannot understand fully in class. Only your textbook can help you out then.6. Listen to the teacher carefully
Teachers just don't talk about boring topics but also about their experiences. You should try to learn from other people's experience because life is too short to learn from your own experience. You can obviate difficulties just by learning from the experience of the experienced people.7. Have good relations with teacher.This is important to gain good grades. Althougth you should not count on this fully but having good relations with teacher helps you.8. Don't hesitate to ask questions from teachers.No question is a stupid question. Asking questions not only helps you to understand but also refreshes the mind of those who already know the answer. Teachers generally love to have feedback from students. Moreover, asking questions shows that the student is following the lecture and is really interested in studies. It makes a good impression on teacher.9. Observe the suroundings. You may find a practical example of what you learnt.If you link your studies to something in your suroundings it will help you to retain it for a long time in your memory. You will have no difficulty in recalling that topic.10. If you take classes in the morning make sure that you had a nice breakfast.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. You cannot focus on the what is being taught without having a good breakfast. So if you have a habit of having breakfast late or not having at all, break this habit.11. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes.
Concentration is what you need to benefit from a teacher's lecture. Tight clothing or shoes won't let you focus. Get rid of the bugging clothes else you would lose good grades.12. Try to ask interesting questions.Interesting questions has two benefits. First, it helps you in understanding the lecture in a better way. Second, such questions allow teachers to become aware of how students are reacting to what he or she is delivering them. This way teacher can change his or her way of teaching to get through to students.13. Don't forget to turn off your cell phone in class. A ringing mobile phone easily breaks your (and others')train of thought.
