This week’s homework tip is all about communication and understanding your teacher’s expectations.

Have you ever looked at a homework assignment and wondered what in the world your teacher is asking? Maybe it was unclear what you were supposed to complete, how in-depth your answers needed to be or even what the teacher wanted out of the assignment.

Well, the simple solution is to talk with your teacher.

You can schedule a conference with your teacher at the beginning of a new semester to talk with them about their expectations for homework assignments and tests. Ask them what they are looking for on assignments and the grading rubric they use.

Also, don’t be afraid to talk with them after class as well. If you are unsure about an assignment, just ask for clarification and if your teacher can give you any suggestions on how to start and what to spend the most time on.

You may also want to briefly skim through your homework assignment once it has been handed out. Look for any questions that you are having difficulty with or any questions that don’t make sense to you. Then, after class consult your teacher for clarification.

Teachers are there to help you learn and exceed, so never hesitate to ask for extra help. Make it a priority to talk with your teachers about their expectations and grading rubric so you can approach your assignments and tests precisely and help improve your overall grades.

Too late to ask your teacher for help? If you are stuck on a homework assignment right now, simply connect with a tutor instantly for help. You can have a live tutoring sessions or simply submit your problem through homework help and check back in later for easy-to-follow steps to a solution.
