Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement
“Decisions Determine Destiny”
Thomas S. Monson
This statement can really help you. It actually is telling you what happens within each decision. Each decision you make shapes your life. Either if you CTR or CTW, each decision throughout your lifetime takes you to different places. That is why people debate that destiny is made by you and some others debate that it is already chosen for you, but the reality of this is, that it might be both. You just have to CTR and you will have a great, successful destiny ahead.

4. Successful students learn that a student and a teacher make a team. Most teachers want exactly what you want: they would like for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grade.
Successful students reflect well on the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned your instructor, they are not an enemy, you share the same interests, the same goals – in short, you’re teammates. Get to know your professor. You’re the most valuable players on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to chalk up a losing season. Be a team player!

Successful Students Part 1


Successful Students
Part 1
Successful students exhibit a combination of successful attitudes and behaviors as well as intellectual capacity.
1. Successful students are responsible and active. Successful students get involved in their studies, accept responsibility for their own education, and are active participants in it!
Responsibility means control. It’s the difference between leading and being lead. Your own efforts control your grade, you earn the glory or deserve the blame, you make the choice. Active classroom participation improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored, daydream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, question, and take notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either option costs one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of additional work outside of class to achieve the same degree of learning the latter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

“Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.”
-Benjamin Franklin

The Statement is right. Even if you have all of those things doesn’t necessarily mean you will be a good person. Also, your own mind and heart define you, the material objects that you have. Your own heart is what is better than everything put together. No material object can exceed your true heart. Your right heart will be exceedingly best over everything else.

Characteristics of a Successful Student

Characteristics of a Successful Student


Many students do not know what it takes to be successful in the educational environment. They understood good and bad grades in a general way, and they sense that they should attend classes, but that is where their knowledge begins and ends.
Most instructors know what a good student is – and is not. For one thing, a good student is not necessarily the most intelligent individual in the class.

The following is a list of some characteristics of good students. This list is a description of what a hard-working student does and what a teacher likes to see. By learning these characteristics, you may better understand the day-to-day and class-to-class behavior of successful students. The idea is to provide you with guidelines you can follow which will help you get down to business of becoming a serious, successful student.

1. Successful students attend classes regularly. They are on time. They listen and train themselves to pay attention. If they miss a session, they feel obligated to let the instructor know why before class begins, if possible, and their excuses are legitimate and reasonable. They make sure they get all missed assignments (by contacting the instructor or another student), and understand specifically what was covered in class. Successful students take responsibility for themselves and their actions.
