Qualities of a good student

Today’s students are tomorrow’s leaders of a country and the qualities of a student clearly determine the student’s bright future and carrier path. Historically the term student referred anyone who learns something; however the recent definition of a student is anyone who attends school, college, or university. Again what are the good qualities of a student? Based on my personal experience, I list down the qualities of a good student. Attitude: basically good student posses the ability and willingness to learn new subjects even the subjects are not interesting. Academic skills: curing academic skills is more important quality of a student. Ability to read comprehensively, to write effectively, to speak fluently and to communicate clearly is the key areas in which a good student must be proficient. Having a good handle in all these areas will make a student to shine in class. Ability: a good student has the ability to apply the result of his/ her learning in to creative way and achieve the goal. Perceptiveness: how well a student can interpret and perceive meanings from a conversation greatly determines quality of a good student. He or she always perceives right meaning from conversation. Self discipline: discipline is managing the time in an important factor that every student must possess. Often times, delaying the task, such as writing assignments, reading text books, etc. may negatively impact the ability of a student to achieve the goals. Understanding rather than memorizing concepts: students must understand the concepts rather than just memorizing them. The memorized facts and theories will stay in student’s memory until they leave school, college, or university. Once out of school the students will totally forget the core concept that they learned. Therefore it is essential a good student understand the concepts.
