你对学习最好的建议是什么?
识别关键概念 -假设你需要阅读课本来补充你的课堂笔记和老师的ppt演示. 首先阅读章节摘要，概述了关键概念及其相互关系. 下一个, 浏览本章, 将注意力集中在每个图形和表格上，阅读相邻的文本以了解新术语的解释. 少用荧光笔.

测试自己 -在阅读本章时, stop and answer any embedded questions, then check your answers before proceeding to the next section. Answer the end-of-chapter questions without referring to the text, then check your answers. 阅读表格时, cover all but one column or row with a blank index card, 试着回忆所覆盖的材料, 然后迅速找出答案. Use this “cover and test” technique 对我来说morize definitions, equations, or structures. 例如, cover the names of anatomical structures or physiological processes on labeled diagrams, trigonometric values on the unit circle, 多原子离子的名称, 有机官能团, 或者运动学方程, then uncover the answers to check your learning. Importantly, repeat this process in reverse, i.e., first cover the definition, then cover the name but not the definition. “覆盖和测试”技术, using tables and figures in the textbook or on instructor handouts, is a quick and easy alternative to making flash cards.

你喜欢咖啡还是茶?

你做家教多久了?
I began tutoring with Rowan-Cabarrus during the Fall semester of 2019. 

你对学习最好的建议是什么?
A tip I would give students for studying would be to pace yourself. When studying for a test or exam, stretch out your study time. Break it down into 30-40 minute increments each day, weeks before your test. Learn little by little so that you are actually digesting the information. Cramming at the last minute can make it stressful. 学习并不总是最有趣的任务，但如果你提前计划，你可以让它成为最简单的任务之一!

What does academic success mean to you?
A part of academic success is meeting the learning objectives outlined by your courses, 但更重要的是, 这是关于反思什么能让你觉得你已经展现出了最好的一面. That means asking yourself: what goal do I want to accomplish in this class? How much time do I want to dedicate to accomplishing this goal? What strategies can I use to help me be successful? It’s you who should set the standard for yourself. And know that if it’s met, you’ve earned the right to feel successful.

What is the last thing you’ve watched, read, or listened to?
我喜欢各种类型的电影和节目! Good movies to watch are “The School for Good & Evil” or “Echoes” Netflix上 or good shows to watch would be “Euphoria” on HBOMax, 或者Hulu上的“黄夹克”. Currently, I’m waiting impatiently for season 4 of “You” Netflix上.

总是在同一天复习教授教的新内容，即使只有5分钟. 也, never wait until the last minute to seek your tutor’s help!

First and foremost, academic success leads to positive outcomes in one’s life journey. 学术成就 improves confidence, self-esteem, and enhances social engagement. 为此目的, 教育工作者必须继续评估学生，并增加最适合学生接受和处理所学材料的学习技巧. Encouragement and motivation lead to a student’s mastery of the subject.

对我来说, academic success is more than passing classes or getting high grades. It’s the ability to reflect on all that you’re learning and ask, “How will all of this get me one step closer to my dreams/goals/aspirations?” With that comes responsibility and professionalism, two great traits that get you far in life.
