How to Improve Your Grades

First find where the problem is lying. If it is with your daily grades, quiz grades, test grades, etc. It will make things a lot easier once you have identified the problem. Once identified, find out why it is suffering. Are you just not a good test taker? Pop quizzes make you nervous? Then look for something that can help you with your problem.

Try studying with a friend and compare notes. Sometimes they will have a different outlook on the same thing you are studying. Seeing their views may give you a different outlook on the topic.

Talk to your teacher, ask him or her if there is any way you can improve your grades. He/she may be able to offer you extra info on the topic.

Get tutored. Find someone you know that is having no problem in the class and ask them if they would be available to tutor you sometime outside of class. If you are having trouble finding a tutor in your area, you might want to start looking online. There are many, affordable, tutoring websites out there.

Ask the teacher if they offer any kind of extra credit. Taking part in extra credit can sometimes boost your grade from a "B" to an "A". That’s why communication with you teacher is so important. Extra credit can really help.

Set aside extra time for this class. If you are doing well in your other classes, give up a little of your free time to learn the subject even better.
