  • 在一个安静、没有干扰的环境中学习.

  • Before beginning an assignment, make sure that you understand it fully. Schedule an appointment with your instructor early on to make sure that you are on the right track.
  • Sometimes the hardest part of getting work done and keeping up with a workload is getting started. Make a commitment of 30 minutes and gradually lengthen the study periods.
  • Because some college students with learning disabilities have trouble recognizing and correcting spelling errors, it is important to use a spell checker to identify misspelled words. Because some words will not be identified by a spell checker, have someone else proofread your papers and assist you in error identification and correction.
  • Meet with instructors frequently, even if it is just to say hello.

应试策略

  • Find out what format your instructor will use for tests. Ask to see if practice tests are available and take as many as possible.
  • 如果没有提供事先的考试或问题, 如果会有论文类型的考试, try to anticipate the questions that will be asked on the exam. 写下你对预期问题的回答.

  • 调整自己的步伐.
  • 如果你遇到一个不懂的问题, paraphrase it for the instructor/ proctor to confirm that you understand it.

建立自信的策略

建立自信不是一件容易的事. Many people benefit from the assistance of a counselor, psychologist, therapist or support group. 你可能想要探索这样的选择. 此外,以下策略可能会有所帮助:

  • After preparing as much as possible for an exam or presentation, tell yourself that you will succeed and are well prepared, 而不是你会失败.
  • 确定一个现实的目标并为之努力. 当你成功时,找出是什么帮助你成功的. 建立自信是一个循序渐进的过程.
  • 如果你在第一次尝试中没有达到你的目标, 和别人坐下来回顾一下你的策略. Identify new strategies that will better prepare you to achieve your final goal.
  • 制定完成每个目标的时间表. 为突发事件留出额外的时间. Take a long-range perspective on your life, rather than focusing on just one semester.
  • Keep a list of your past successes and accomplishments and read it over frequently.
  • 为自己的成就邀功. 学会用“谢谢”来接受赞美. 赞美就像礼物. When you reject a compliment, you are rejecting not only the compliment, but the person giving it.
  • Identify your strengths and keep expanding the list of what you do well. 发现你的才能,发展它们并享受它们.
  • 正确看待失望. One "D" in a class does not mean that you will fail the class. One "D" in a course does not mean that you will be dismissed from the University.
  • If you do poorly on a paper or an exam, find out why rather than condemning yourself. 把它记为经验. 错误往往是最好的老师. By analyzing what went wrong, you will be better able to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
  • 为成功而着装. If you are not sure about the appropriate attire for a specific event, 提前向有知识的人咨询.
  • 微笑. 微笑使人显得更自信.
  • 看看那些对你有信心的人, 为你提供了机会, 给了你过去的责任. These people know you well, have observed your past performances, and have confidence in you. As you accept new challenges, keep these people and their confidence in you clearly in mind.
