Tips for Best Student in the class

Sit in the Front Row

If you happen to be shy, sitting in the front row can be very uncomfortable at first, but I promise you, its one of the best ways to pay attention to everything being taught. You can hear better. You can see everything on the board without having to crane your neck around the head in front of you.You can make eye contact with the professor. Dont underestimate the power of this. If your teacher knows youre really listening and that you care about what youre learning, he or she will be extra willing to help you. Besides, itll feel like youve got your own private teacher.
