Part 4

Getting the most out of a session

Here are some tips to help your group get the most out of each study session:

·       Decide what you’re going to do in advance

·       Prepare for the session, so you can make the most of your time together

·       Take turns teaching to reinforce your own knowledge

·       Stick to the session topic.

By supplementing your individual study with a study group you can reinforce what you’ve learned, deepen your understanding of complex concepts, and maybe even make a few new friends. Remember that a friend is a person who encourages you to do your best and to achieve on a high level, one who pushes you to try a little harder and be a little better. If someone pulls you down the wrong trails of life then those people are not friends, (they are actually your enemies) and you must avoid the m at all cost. Whoever said learning can’t be fun? Learning is enjoyable and exciting when you study with others.
