WHAT IS LEARNING ?

Learning is measurable and relatively permanent change in behavior through experience instruction or study.

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LEARNING ?

• Be prepared. I will make my own notes or refences my senior  before start new learning.
• Be on time. I will always be punctual about works and studies.
• Take a good notes. I will write the notes after class over. This way will makes me more remember about what I learn that day.
• Avoid  distractions. If I have family members that distract me, I will politely ask them to leave so  I can continue to complete my assignment.
• Make sure to get enough sleep because staying up late studying is not a good idea. I will make sure I got enough sleep at least 6 to 8 hours.
