How to Pass Exams in 20 Steps


Book Description

It is possible to do many things right and to exhibit knowledge in many ways, however, not until you have been put to the test and examined, then will the education system declare you knowledgeable. How to pass exams in 20 steps points to an area much neglected. This books deals with issues of the self. How to conduct oneself as a student with intention to excel in exams. Issues; of one's conduct in the classroom, on the school compound, at home, with friends, concerning personal private reading discipline, on the exam day, meals to consider on exam day, in the exam room and after the exam in anticipation of another. In this book are a few real life experiences drawn from my very life and those from students that I taught. Having been a secondary school teacher for over 10 years, I have been able to make some keen observations. Some inspirational statements have been included at the very ending of this book, they will ease and stimulate your mind. This book in its simplicity could be the answer to the many questions arising from within you as a result of not passing exams as you ought to. As a teacher I have noticed that learners are majorly equipped with content on which they will be examined and are given techniques on question interpretation and approach but the preparedness of the heart, the mind, the body and soul is not addressed. Yet if these are not aligned in tune with academic activities, effort will go to waste in providing content and question answering. In here, in this very book is the answer!
