Study Strategies for Students of All Ages

A new article for students and parents by Varda Epstein about studying posted on November 1, 2017 on Kars4Kids includes my advice.  The article is entitled “Study Strategies for Students of All Ages.”

For example, “Feel free to make an appointment to meet with your teacher or professor if you have questions or want feedback. Your teacher can answer your questions about difficult material, look over your rough draft of a paper and give you comments, advise you on the best way to handle a research project, etc. When I was teaching, I respected students who took the time to meet with me because they tended to be more motivated and they often improved their work dramatically due to their extra effort.”
