5 Tips for success

Reading and writing go hand in hand. The better you understand a
text, the more likely you are to successfully communicate your
thoughts about it in writing. So it’s important to develop strong
skills in both areas. With that in mind, here’s how to improve your
reading comprehension.
Tips 1-2
Tip 1: Annotate
Be an active reader. Instead of passively reading a text, take notes
about important story elements, key factual information and
significant ideas in the text.

Tips 2: note the Author’s Writing Style
every author writes with a purpose, using deliberate methods to
successfully relate specific information to the audience. When you’re
reading, look for patterns in the author’s writing. For example, you
may notice a repetition of key words, phrases or symbols --- or the
use of distinct type of sentence structure. Authors employ these
writing strategies to help readers comprehend a central argument or
theme, so be sure to explore how these techniques create meaning.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
