Successful Students
3-4
3. . . . ask questions. Successful students ask questions to provide
the quickest route between ignorance and knowledge. In addition to securing
knowledge you seek, asking questions has at least two other extremely important
benefits. The process helps you pay attention to your professor and helps your
professor pay attention to you! Think about it. If you want something, go after
it. Get the answer now, or fail a question later. There are no foolish
questions, only foolish silence. It’s your choice.
4. . . . learn that a student and a professor make a team. Most instructors
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 material,
the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your
instructor, they are not an enemy, you share the same interests, the same
goals-in short, and your 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.
