Characteristics of a Good Student
Thrifty
Since
you do not earn your own money yet, value every cent that you receive from your
parents or anyone who supports you. Or, if you are working a part-time job just
to send yourself to school, then you surely understand how hard it is to earn
bucks.
Patient
Unless
you are a genius, there could be times when you are having a hard time
mastering your lessons or some skills. Instead of succumbing to frustration,
you must be patient with your progress, no matter how slow it is. What
is important is you do not stop learning and trying.
Organized
A good
student makes sure s/he is organized in everything including time management
and school things. This will help you avoid cramming and forgetting where you
have inserted your assignments.
Confident
You
are not hesitant to voice out your ideas in the class, participate in contests,
or join a school organization. You believe in yourself.
Friendly
A good
student is good at socialization too. The only thing that might hinder you from
making friends with your classmates is either you consider them as threats to
your goal to top the class or you think you are not good enough to be friends
with them. Both are signs of insecurity.
Competitive
This
does not talk about seeing your classmates as rivals. Instead, being
competitive means you do not back out from any challenging activities in your
classes. For example, if your teacher gives a difficult Math problem, you try
to solve it on your own rather than just wait for your classmates to figure it
out.
