So here are some keys in doing just that:
- Actually listen to the teacher while in the class.
- Take good notes—even if your mind tells you it has the ability to "remember all things."
- Talk with a friend or parent later that day about what you learned—even if it's spiced with a tinge of humor.
- Remind yourself about all the rewards that come with a good grade.
- When studying, write your key points down again.
- When studying, say your key points aloud multiple times.
- Pray and ask God to bring those things you've learned back to your remembrance (John 14:26).
