How to Improve
Study Habits
by Christine Reidhead
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Young Adult
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
For students 13 through college graduation, Christine Reidhead's guide to building study skills is an extremely important book for those who want to secure their future through good grades. Too many students' grades are falling, especially in a time when regular classrooms cannot fully open. Parents everywhere are at a loss regarding what to do with their responsibilities in the face of the increasing downturn in their children's grades. It seems as though, with the advent of social media, the attention of a lot of students has been shifted from their books to their smartphones or computers. Apart from social media, blame has also been put on a decline in the interest of students regarding education in general. Students, at the moment, do not have the motivation or zeal, as it seems, to even study.
Good study habits, or skills, are solutions to the problems experienced by students. This has been true for a long time, but the world is changing rapidly, which also means that the tools employed during study have to be changed in order to keep up.
This is especially true as a result of the covid-19 pandemic that has forced students to study and learn from home rather than in the classroom. E-Learning, or online learning, can be effective, but only if the student has the discipline and drive to succeed using the tools and materials they are provided by teachers. Without strong study skills the student will fall behind in the classroom. Online the failure to develop good study skills can be devastating, leading to an inability to achieve the success in life the student could otherwise achieve.
This excellent guide walks students through skills and habits which a student, or a person, employs while studying in order to make the most out of the experience. The kind of skills employed by a person, whether good or bad, determines how successful they will be in the process of learning, and Reidhead shows how to understand study skills, discover what kind of learner you are, develop great study skills, avoid bad study habits, identify the best places to study, and how to keep up with Online Learning during the current ovid-19 pandemic. It also helps parents and students to identify when certain students are studying excessively, harming the effectiveness of their studying.
This is a must book for students who want good grades. Both a guide and a self-help book, it can help any student of any age, middle school through graduate school, succeed in their classes whether they are held in a classroom or online.

EXCERPT ONE:
Too many students’ grades are falling, especially in a time when regular classrooms cannot fully open. Parents everywhere are at a loss regarding what to do with their responsibilities in the face of the increasing downturn in their children’s grades. It seems as though, with the advent of social media, the attention of a lot of students has been shifted from their books to their smartphones or computers. Apart from social media, blame has also been put on a decline in the interest of students regarding education in general. Students, at the moment, do not have the motivation or zeal, as it seems, to even study.
In the last decade there has been a steady decline in the level of interest exhibited by young people regarding their academics, which has translated to the low grades experienced. However, the tip for solving the problem is one that has been followed for decades: discipline. More importantly, discipline to develop good study habits.
Good study habits, or skills, are solutions to the problems experienced by students. This has been true for a long time, but the world is changing rapidly, which also means that the tools employed during study have to be changed in order to keep up.
This is especially true as a result of the covid-19 pandemic
that has forced students to study and learn from home rather than in the classroom.
E-Learning, or online learning, can be effective, but only if the student has
the discipline and drive to succeed using the tools and materials they are
provided by teachers. Without strong study skills the student will fall behind
in the classroom. Online the failure to develop good study skills can be
devastating, leading to an inability to achieve the success in life the student
could otherwise achieve.

GUEST POST:
Five Reasons You Should Read “How To Improve Study Habits”
For someone having issues with challenges studying, you perhaps think you would need something beyond the normal to help you improve. You could have even tried various methods and gotten various results. Funny enough, the best recommendation would be to read. But this time, you are not reading your ‘regular’ books. You are reading a book specifically written to strategically help you improve your reading habits.
Even better, the book “How To Improve Study Habits” by Christine Reidhead was written with a lot of simplicity and accuracy. You would have absolutely no problem understanding the book.
I bet you want to know why “How to Improve Study Habits” is your best chance at ultimately improving your grades. I am not recommending the book based on emotions- there are a whole lot of similar books out there. To cut the story, let me show you 5 reasons why you should not delay pressing the ‘buy’ button any longer.
1.) You get to learn from experience: The reason why your Professors teach you in class and not your parents is because they are your best option in that field. The same idea guides the entire learning process- you should only learn from the best always. Christine Reidhead has a profile that qualifies her to teach you the best ways to improve your study habits. Christine is a renowned Educator and Humanitarian with an array of certifications and awards. She has been experiencing constant improvement in her study habits over the years and she has written the book to help you improve yours too.
2.) The book gives a practical approach to improving your study skills: The greatest concern you can have about this book is that you will read it and be left with a “what next?” But I am assuring you that would not happen. The book is very practical. You get to learn and apply the knowledge on the go. The book has a conversational tone that keeps you glued to the pages all long.
3.) The book helps you identify your reading personality: This is one of the first benefits you will get by reading this book by Christine Reidhead. You have a studying personality and you must realize it if you are to increase your grades. The personality determines your study time, best study location, and the likes. In the book, Christine has highlighted the easy way to discover your study personality and how to channel it to produce significant progress.
4.) The book shows you the dynamics of studying: The advent of the Coronavirus pandemic has boosted the use of online learning platforms. This is progress, but a lot of students are having problems adapting to the change, thereby limiting their grades. But in this book, Christine teaches a practical method to solve that problem. So, if you have been experiencing this challenge, or you know anyone who has, you (they) need to read this book.
5.) The book shows you the bad habits of reading and how to avoid them: There are bad studying habits you should avoid at all cost. It does not matter your approach to studying, you would not make the progress you desire without paying cognizance to these bad habits. The book does justice to that by showing you the practical approach to identifying and avoiding bad habits.
It is a simple yet factual statement that Christine wrote the book specifically to help YOU. You just need to purchase the book, pay attention to details while you read, and you will have yourself to thank for making the right decision. By the time you are done reading the book, applying the knowledge you have gained would be the only bridge between you and the grades you want for yourself.
Go for the book! Go for the grades!
