The successes that successful students achieve leads to accomplishment and confidence that leads back to more persistency and more success. Thus developing a positive, pro active learning model that is ongoing. Teaching a child responsibility is another critical factor in school success. Successful students know that they are responsible for their school success and failure. They do not blame the teacher, parents or the school.
Successful students act independently.
When homework needs to be completed they do it without dispute. When a successful student gets a boring teacher they find a way to master the material despite the teacher. Other students act more dependently. They require parents to set the study schedule or they require the teacher to do all the learning. They do not see that school is their responsibility.
