Steps
- Take serious notes. The process of writing things down aids in remembering them. Also, take notes on things you think you won't need; you just might need them.
- Behave. Simply paying your full attention to the teacher will help you do better. You will catch more of what he/she says, and you will get the teacher's respect.
- Study. Read your "Rules of the Road" book through several times. Find online practice tests. Do anything to get to know the rules like the back of your hand.
- Pay attention when riding in a car. Watch the road signs, how the driver signals, think through how you would handle a situation, etc. First hand experience is one of the best ways to learn.
- Focus when taking tests. Don't let other kids in the classroom steal your attention. Staying focused will help you understand and answer questions correctly.
- Be relaxed on the road. When driving with instructor, be as relaxed as possible. However, don't let your standards down. Always keep your hands at 9 and 3 (or 10 and 2 depending on what you were taught). Feel free to talk!
Tips
- Be friendly to others in the class. It's not good to be the teacher's pet with all your classmates hating you.
- STUDY! STUDY! STUDY!
- Become the teacher's pet. If the teacher likes you, he might be more relax with you.
Warnings
- Don't cheat.
- Don't become someone's enemy in the class.
