G.P.A. Benefit: The better you absorb a book, the better you will do on quizzes and testsFor those of you who have trouble reading long texts for English homework, audiobooks may be a good supplement. LibriVox has many audiobooks of literary works on YouTube that are in the public domain. Whether you are taking middle school, high school, or college level English classes, head over to YouTube.com and search for the hard-to-read titles. Sometimes hearing a book read aloud can help you develop a greater understanding of plot, theme, and characters.
Common Titles in Audiobook Form:
- A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickins
- Paradise Lost by John Milton
- Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen
- Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare
- The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne
Academic Advice
G.P.A. Benefit: The advice others give may be key to improving writing, studying, or planning habits that will boost your performance and raise your G.P.AThere are many YouTube videos and vlogs made by people who have gone through school, the workplace, or just want to help others improve personal productivity. These people generally have great advice for whatever academic or organizational problem you are facing. If you have a question or need help with study tips or your homework, chances are, someone has made a video about it that can explain things in a different or better way than you had previously known.
(Note: I do not own any part of the videos below and am only using them as good examples of the way YouTube posts can address areas in which students may have academic difficulties.)
