Many teenagers are sleep deprived. they need a minimum of nine hours sleep, but it seems, many get only 7 ½ hours sleep per night. sleep cannot be accumulated for the future. sleep helps consolidate learning. sleep research has shown that the brain practices and consolidates what it has learned during the day when they are asleep. so not only does sufficient sleep help future learning by ensuring a student is fresh, it consolidates past learning

A fifteen-year-old male should require 10 hours of sleep every night to function normally, because a tenth-grader has to pay more attention in class. If the student didnt pay attention very carefully, the student will not be able to do the homework correctly.

Teenagers need between 8 to 9 1/2 hours of sleep on a regular nightly basis. So, turn off your cell phone, shut your door and be ready to settle down by 10PM.

8 Hours at least. Without eating junk food of any kind before going to sleep. Having a healthy diet and healthy home would help a lot too!

Nine hours.
I am 47 years old. If I don't get 24 hours of beauty sleep each and every day, I wake up ugly and in a bad mood.
