How to be well organized during our course:
a. Attend all the lessons and if you do miss any make sure you catch up with the work immediately. Check our blog to know what you missed.
b. Ensure you are on time for lessons and prepared to take an active role in class. If you don’t understand something ... ASK FOR HELP do not wait till the next lesson and get things accumulated.
c. You are expected to read up about the topics taught before the next lesson.
d. Keep all loose pages in a binder. It is your responsibility to keep the notes and material tidy and in good order and to submit them to me for checking if requested.
e. Keep up to date with your written assignments. Don’t let the work pile up and ensure you meet deadlines. If for a good reason you cannot meet a deadline, let me know in advance via email.
f. Make sure you read your textbooks at the end of every session.
