“My strength is as the strength of ten because my heart is pure.”

-Alfred, lord Tennyson-

Reflection: I agree with this statement because if you got your conscience clean then you got nothing to regret. You will feel free and you will try you best whenever you do something.

English, math, foreign language tips: Practice—especially foreign language. It is hard to succeed in a foreign language class if you are just showing and doing the work. But if you are in your room and look at objects and try to say them in the language you are learning it actually helps. Or if you send a simple text to a friend think about it, can you translate that to German or Spanish? These are the little things that will help.

Here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in college: Time management and organization are critical key factors to success in college. And never be afraid to go ask your teacher for help. They have office hours for a reason-use them!

My strategies for written assignments: everyone has their own writing styles. I generally come up with an idea and do massive amounts of research before I ever think about writing. I then organize my research then something prepares an outline before actually writing I always print out the paper and come back to it the next day and reread it. That is the easiest way for me to catch my own mistakes. I have to give eyes a break from it, and if I just wrote it I think it looks perfect. But if I look at it a day later I almost always find grammatical errors or phrases and sentences I just want to reword

 How I succeed in team project: never assume someone is doing what they are supposed to be doing. Have regular meetings and have each member show their work, not just give you or the group their word for it.

How I study for multiple exams, deal with multiple projects: really it is my time beforehand. For example, if I have a test Monday, and 2 tests Tuesday then I will study for my Monday test Thursday and part of Friday. Start studying for my next test on the second half of Friday and part of Saturday, then my second Tuesday test on Saturday as well and part on Sunday. Then Sunday night I can review for my Monday test because I already studied for it. When that test is over I can begin reviewing for the other tests.my overall study method: I try to break it up over several days or at least two. I get bogged down if I try to pull an all-nighter. How I've overcome an initial bad grade if I didn't prepare properly or didn't use the right study habit for that class/ I usually try to go over what I did wrong and sometime discuss with the teacher what I can do differently on the next exam or what they suggest I do for studying for the next exam

I can and will work as part of the team as long as everyone in the team is willing to do his work. I don’t like having to pick up the slack, but I will if I know that my grade will be harmed otherwise. My greatest academic success was in my first semester when I had to write a 10-12 page research paper. It was the longest paper I had ever been assigned and I was a little scared. Also, it was the first paper where they were like, here you go, just write about something. I had to argue in favor of or against something, but it could be anything from the sky is blue to hypnotism. I wrote mine on hypnotism. I worked on this paper for weeks and weeks. Every night I would be doing research or writing. I put so much effort into this paper. It ended up being just under 12 pages but it was full on information. I turned it in and when I got it back a week or so later, I had received the first A+ of my college career. All my hard work paid off because I got the grade I deserved. I was really happy and proud of myself.

“Try a little harder to be a little better”

                 - Gordon B. Hinckley-

Reflection: I agree with statement because the more you try to do something the better the result. If you give up on something you’ll never be good at it. You got to keep trying until the end. Like the old saying says practice makes master. If you practice something over and over again, then you’ll be an expert in that subject, sport, etc.

My strategies for written assignments: I try to outline before I write because otherwise I forget what I’m supposed to be talking about. I try not to leave them for the last minute because then I just goof up all the work. A lot of times I just write what I feel. Teachers like your opinion and if you can find something from a magazine or book that relates to your life, they like it even more because it allows you to take ownership of your work. I write things I want people to see, not because the teacher told me to.

How I succeed in team projects: personally, I do not like working on group projects, especially the ones I worked on in high school. However, when it is required to work as a group I try to lead. I try to be in charge. That way I know things will get done on time and that I’m going to get a good grade.
