A
Everyone has problems of schoolwork sometimes.Try to keep things in perspective.Getting one or two bad grades doesn't mean you'll fail your exams.Work out why it's happening and how you can fix it.
Homework and exams can seem neverending and you need to find ways of managing your time effectively.Study somewhere quiet away from the TV and other distractions and make sure you don't leave it all to the last minute.
If you hate a subject,you'll probably never learn to love it.However,with a good range(一系列)of qualifications you'll stand out from the crowd when you apply(申请)for jobs and colleges so it's worth doing your best in all your subjects.
There are lots of websites offering study supports and you should ask your teachers for advice—they're there to help you learn.
If something at home or in your personal life is worrying you,it can distract(分心)you from your schoolwork.Talk about it to your family and friends or a teacher you trust.If you've missed classes for any reason,talk to your teachers about what you can do to catch up.
If you're still having difficulties,it's possible that you have a Special Educational Need.If you think you do,talk to your parents and school about being professionally assessed.Having a Special Educational Need won't stop you being successful—Richard Branson has dyslexia(读写困难)and Einstein was autistic(患孤独症的).
