Reading
5 Tips for Success
Tips 3-4
Tip 3: Do Research
Literary
critics have written vast numbers of analytically 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
additional 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 achievements 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; you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.
Choose the
Right
