As people set about learning, it's necessary to study hard. However, it doesn't mean that everyone who studies hard will surely succeed. So how to be a successful learner? Have a look at the following ways!
Act well in class. Pay attention to what the teacher says in class and take enough notes. Whenever you take notes, not only use your hands but also use your brain. Always keep your brain active.
Ask questions. This is the common way to learn. Don't be shy or afraid to ask questions. There are no stupid questions. As the saying goes, “Those who ask may be a fool for five minutes, but those who don't will be a fool forever.” Asking questions will help learn more.
Review what you have learned after class. If necessary, work hard at it until you master the most important knowledge by heart. By reviewing, find out your problems so that you can discuss them with your classmates and teachers in the next class.
Put what you have learned into real life practice. It's the most important part. And it also continues the process (过程) of learning. Remember, “Practice makes perfect.”
Lead a healthy lifestyle. Have some good sleeping habits and eat vegetables and fruit as often as possible. This way, you can be in good shape and have more energy to learn.
Previewing (预习) before class is also a good way to be a successful learner. And if you come up with some other ideas, try them and see how they work.
