Reading
5 Tips for Success
Tips 3-4
Tip 3: Do
Research
Literary
critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on
countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do
some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In
addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative,
something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly
sources, not condensed study guides. Going the extra mile in your research
elevates your achievement 10-fold.
Tip 4: Use a
Dictionary
Make sure you
have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning
of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. Rather
than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to look them
up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase
greatly, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.
Choose the
Right
