Characteristics of a Successful Student


   Characteristics of a Successful Student


Many students do not know what it takes to be successful in the educational environment. They understand good and bad grades in a general way, and they sense that they should attend classes, but that is where their knowledge begins and ends.

Most instructors know what a good student is – and is not. For one thing, a good student is not necessarily the most intelligent individual in the class.

The following is a list of some characteristics of good students. This list is a description of what a hard-working student does and what a teacher likes to see. By learning these characteristics, you may better understand the day-to-day and class-to-class behavior of successful students. The idea is to prove you with guidelines you can follow which will help you get down to the business of becoming a serious, successful student.

1.   Successful students attend classes regularly. They are on time. They listen and train themselves to pay attention. If they miss a session, they feel obligated to let the instructor know why before class begins if possible, and their excuses are legitimate and reasonable. They make sure they get all missed assignments (by contacting the instructor).
