Study Habits

First off, there is no wrong way in studying. There might probably just be a bad way in studying. For example, if you are studying with your brothers and sisters playing and running around it isn't a wrong way, but it is a bad way. In order to fix this problem, you can do many stuff. You can go to a friends house to study where it is all quite or you can even step outside the house for a while and study as much as you can. There is even going to the library where it is all silence to do your work, but of course if you weren't to have time later to go to library you can just put a little time from your daily life and stay afterschool in one of your teachers classroom to work if it is alright with them. You see, you might think there aren't many places to do your work so you would go to your teacher the next day and give her an excuse on why you didn't do your homework. This is something that you shouldn't be doing because there is always a solution to any problem that you are having. I can relate to this because last year knowing there were many places for me to do my work I would sometimes come to the teacher the next day telling her about how I was not able to do my homework the night before. After a while, I realized that instead of going to her class every morning I could have been using the time to do my work. This can also be another study habit because you might not have finished your work the night before so by coming early in the morning you can have the extra time that you needed to do your work. One thing you should have learned over the years is that there is no excuse in not being able to do your work or study for something important because there are many study habits you can use to help you out.

Welcome!

Welcome my AP class and everyone who reads this blog. My name is Xavier Ortiz and I am a sophomore who goes to Camino Nuevo high school. I welcome you to learn about the different study habits there are to ensuring you a good grade. I will talk to you my fellow classmates about the ways you can study and what can you do to make sure nothing is distracting you. Not everyone is able to study in peace because of problems they have or maybe because they have to help out around the house. Well, I am going to write about all the possible ways to study if you are not able to do one study technique or another.
