Why is homework needed?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Homework is important because it keeps your brain up to date with all the things you learned at school. If you learn something new in the morning, you might forget the next day because you didn't think about it or work on it. It's annoying, but if you complete your homework, you won't find yourself behind in you classes or not understanding your work.

Is there any company that offers free tutoring?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Learn what type of level they are at, mentally and book smarts. Then adapt yourself to that level (so you can relate) and then carefully intervene with your words. This way you have there ear because they feel like you are not the enemy but someone with problems to. After that you are a human instead of extra help because they may suck at math, English etc.. Along with their ears and a new found respect. Worked for me. I was able to help the worst of the worse this way many of times. Tutoring is two things for me; Life and the material. Let them talk at first about anything, if you got a quite one then act as if your talking to yourself about anything, bad day, good day, your dog pooping on your floor etc.. This way they can learn you first & if they are shy type, or angry etc.. They open will up after awhile. You will see that one day he/she will say, "Hey me too" or something close to it. PATIENCE!! G.L
Depending on the type of tutoring and the needs of the student what a tutor does can vary. I will give you some examples, which I hope will be helpful to you.

If a student is having trouble with a class, say an algebra class, then the tutor will focus all his/her energy on improving the performance in the class. This may mean helping the student with homework, reteaching and re-explaining concepts that were covered in class, providing extra practice, and demonstrating to the student how to study for tests. Generally this type of tutoring is done while following the curriculum of the school.

Some tutoring programs offer their own curriculum, somewhat like an additional subject or class. The theory behind this is that what the student learns in the tutoring curriculum will transfer to the school classes and make them easier. These types of tutoring programs train their tutors in the specific system.

If a student is on summer break or needs enrichment, or is studying a class outside of school, then the tutor will need to come up with materials to use. The student's teacher and parent can help select the materials, or the tutor may prefer a certain set of materials for the purpose.

Most of all, what a tutor needs to be able to do is connect with students. You need good communication skills and a knack for getting along with young people. Teaching and tutoring experience is essential too, because as anyone who has tried can tell you, teaching/tutoring a subject is different than doing well in it as a student.

What does note taking help you with?

Taking notes helps you to remember what you are learning. Writing down what you are studying helps you more than any other method of studying. It is also a great way to learn how to listen and pick out the most important facts in what you are hearing. And as a bonus, you can use your notes to study for tests.

How often should students have homework?

User Avatar

Tell the teacher the truth and ask her for one chance to return it tomorrow.

If you don't do it, you get a failing grade on it. The best thing is to ask if you can do it for tomorrow - then be sure you do it!

Asked by Wiki User

Writing down your ideas and discoveries in any academic writing is needed to prove your facts, without any proof your professor would not know whether or not you actually performed the required research and checked your facts properly. This is needed in any academic paper whether it must be written in formats such as MLA, APA etc.

How much homework should an 8th grade student get?

User Avatar

Asked by 77isaacpismo77

I think that an 8th grade student should get a fair amount of homework and classwork. We will be going into High school next year and if we get a low amount of work, we will be surprised and shocked about the amount of work in high school. We will basically get "pounded" with work. I think that we should get a medium amount so that we can be somewhat ready but noy too much because then we will get stressed and overwhemed since we didn't get that much work in 7th Grade.

Can homework even help kids?

Some kids do, because their mind will wonder off (mostly because it will get boring for them.) Although, other kids will stay completely focused the entire time. If you just look over at them when they are doing their homework you can definitely tell.

Why was homework ever made?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Homework is there to help you apply the information you learned in class. It it also necessary so that your teacher will be able to assess your abilities. Additionally, and perhaps most importantly, learning without practice is not really learning.

Think about it this way:

If you play sports, you practice. You learn new plays and you perform them, drill and train constantly. Why? So when it comes time for you use them in a game, they will become automatic.

Homework assignments are the drill and practice for the game, life.

What do you do if you bring home a bad report card from school?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When you've gotten a bad grade, here are some things you can do to make yourself feel better: * Remind yourself that this is not the end of the world. Yes, you got a bad grade, however, realistically (that word is a good one to use whenever you feel anxious or worried) it is just one part of your whole grade. * Remind yourself that it is OK to make mistakes. Everybody has made a bad grade at one time, which means that it's normal. * Get rid of your nagging inner voice. You know, the critical voice inside your head that tells you what a loser you are and how awful you must be - tell that voice to shut up. Think of all the things you have done right. Remind yourself of everything that you can do well. Remember the times you have done good work and succeeded. * Do something that you enjoy. It's always a good idea to take your mind off the bad news for a little while - this doesn't mean you should avoid thinking about it forever, just take a little break. * Plan for next time. Make a study schedule to help you do better for your next assignment or test. * Learn from this time. Use your exam or assignment paper as a study help by correcting your answers, learning the correct terms and skills, and "taking" the test again at home as a practice quiz. * See if there is extra credit available. Most teachers will have some extra work that you can do to pull up your grade average. Just assure yourself that your next test will be better. I did this when I got a C once and the next test was a 98%. Also, eating ice cream after school can help a bit. ;)

Why is homework bad for students' lives?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Everybody would love to play all the time and not have to work. School is your job, and just like your parents have to go to a job every day, you have to do schoolwork even if it's not fun. Homework is not "bad" - it helps you learn the material and do better in school so you can get a better job and make more money once you are grown up.

What are some examples of refusal skills?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Here are some examples:

  • Say "No" or "No, thanks," over and over if necessary.
  • Call it what it is (cheating, stealing, etc.).
  • Talk about something else.
  • Ask questions.
  • Give reasons.
  • Use humor or sarcasm.
  • Suggest doing something else.
  • When all else fails to ignore the other child or children and walk away.

If you want the friendship of whoever you are refusing, you can keep the door open. For instance, "If you decide to do something safer, let me know."
