To Being A Successful IECP Student



To Being A Successful IECP Student
There are some steps to being a successful IECP student. A successful IECP student should arrive in class on time, finish their homework on time, and study hard. First of all, students should be in class on time because they may have a completely new lesson. For example, when I studied in junior high school, my best friend was always late to class. She missed a lot of important notes in the classes. When we had a final exam, she got a really bad score. Secondly, students need to finish their homework on time because they might have new homework to do after class every day. If students don’t finish the schoolwork on time, it will affect students’ learning. For instance, my cousin could not follow lessons correctly because he usually didn’t finish his homework on time. So he missed many opportunity to practice. Third, a successful student has to study hard because students are responsible for their own education. Accordingly, nobody can help them to study or do exams. In addition, I left my home country to study in the U.S. alone because I want to improve my English ability. If I don’t study hard, I will not be taking advantage of this opportunity to improve my English. In conclusion, being in class on time, finishing the homework on time, and studing hard are very important behaviors for a student who wants to be a successful IECP student.
