Jocy.

I am an 11th grader who attends Linda Marquez High School. I am a hard worker at school. I try to be as involved as I can, such as being in part of school clubs. I am also in the school's varsity basketball team. I love basketball, Thai tea, and Italian food. I hope to attend UCLA after graduating high school. I wish to have a successful career as a doctor. I am a very optimistic person. I was blessed with the best people in the world, which i am lucky to call my family and friends. I wish nothing but the best for myself, and i am excited for the future!

How to Always Succeed in School Part 4


How to Always Succeed in School

Part 4

Read. You can read whatever you want: Sports Illustrated, Jet, The New York Times, comic book, the Holy Bible, your Cheerios box, online blogs or web articles…whatever! Reading increases your brainpower.

·        Look up words you don’t understand in the dictionary.

·        Read assignment questions first to help you identify key points.

·        Take breaks from reading to write down what you learn.

·        Read outside of class to improve your reading skills

·        Read out loud with your friends, classmates or parents.

·        Read with a purpose.

·        Take reading courses to improve your reading rate and comprehension.

·        Take a speed-reading course if you desire

·        Take notes while reading

·        When possible, read from your own books and materials; this way, you can marks, highlights, cross reference, write notes in the margins, etc. if the books belong to someone else or the library, you can’t do this.

·        Read religious literature.

·        Read from the internet.

·        Read daily. Set a goal to read a book at least each month. Then a book a week.
