Few things that help me learn is listening to music during study because it blocks other people trying to talk to me and i can concentrate better. or studying with other students that are not in the same class. and it helps if you do it more than once by reading it over and over or writing them down 4 or 5 times.

Working and taking time with other student’s is what makes a good teacher. they can explain what the problem or the homework and how it is supposed to be done. Or that dose not have a problem with helping you with the same problem over and over again.

there are several things i would like to learn are different types of agriculture and about my past ancestors to see if they were related to anyone famous or if they invented something everyone can use in the futer. sometimes i would like to learn something that i never learned about like different kinds of people and there history.
1. What helps you learn better?
What helps me learn better is hands on work. For example, learning how to put parts on a bike or quad. What also helps me learn better is having a good time. I think the more entertaining class is, the better you will learn, that is if you pay attention.
2. What makes a good teacher?
What makes a good teacher is the personality. If the personality is out going, funny, and easygoing then these traits would make a really great teacher.
3. What would you like to learn?
What i would like to learn is how to play my bass guitar better. I practice everyday but its not great but its also not bad either. I would also like to learn to dirt bike. I love to go quading!

1. What helps me learn is if I can try my hardest and test my knowledge to find the answer and hands on activities like building things but, take your time.

3. I would like to learn how to translate and talk easy to know words in Japanese into English because I can’t understand it but, my girlfriend can do this no problem and I dated her. I don’t care about what people think tell them how you feel. She went back to Japan.
I would learn better if the school days started later so I could get more sleep. To make up for lost time schools could take some days from some vacations. In doing so people would be in better moods and more willing to take in whatever the subject might be.
Most good teachers are born that way, its possible fore a bad teacher to improve but some people just can’t teach. I think most of it is personality and the teacher’s social skills. If you don’t like the teacher fore whatever reason you are probably not going to listen even if it’s in a subject you like.
I don’t think it’s a matter of what any one wants to learn but how to improve the existing classes and the learning environment. For example no one wants to go to a school ware you are told that you are being prepared fore the real world, to be adults and then treated like kindergarteners. If you want people to succeed with the freedoms of the real world then cretin freedoms must be given. More rules equal more rebellion.
The thing that help me learn is hands on like working on lawn mowers and dirt bikes and quads. I also like to hunt deer and turkey.
A good teacher is someone who helps you a lot when you need it and also when your on the down side cheers you up. I like old Farmall tractors and I like to work on them sometimes. I have one Farmall cub and a Farmall A that’s what I what I like to work on and do.
What me learn better is drumming and playing on the computer and X Box 360. I also like to hangout with my friends and brother. What I would like to learn more is Culinary Art, social studies and learn how to take apart the computer and how to use it more better.
What would make a good teacher is I don’t know really, I think one that would help students at least let them try and if they don’t get it then help them get it.
