I am struggling in my reading class what will help me?

Question

I HAVE A 15% IN THAT CLASS I NEED IT TO BE AT LEAST A 70% BUT HOW DO I GET IT UP?

Answer 1

It sounds to me like you need a tutor. You apparently have missed some important things in earlier grades and it is coming back to haunt you. Also, if you have genuinely been trying, you might have learning disabilities. Ask your teacher if the school will arrange to test you. If learning disabilities are identified, the school is obligated by law to provide special help for you.

Keep in mind that learning disabilities, should you have them, are not an indicator of intelligence. Many people with learning disabilities have very high IQs, like my daughter. She is now an honor student in college and doing very well!

Good Luck!

Answer 2

Asking the question is the right beginning:

Some suggestions might be:
Talk first with your instructor and see if s/he can offer a starting point and a PLAN.
Provide yourself a regular "reading" time every day.
Find someone else to read with. (My neighbor has an after supper reading time for everyone in the family to sit down and read SOMETHING of interest - followed by a shared discussion.)
Following your "reading" sit down and "write" about your experiences.

Answer 3

Never give up. I bet some of your friends are great in that class. Don't feel ashamed to ask. Keep your spirit up and keep practicing

Answer 4

If addition is the best practice for addition, and jumping - the best practice for flying, try reading and remembering what you've read!
