Forming reading habit

Reading has been the challenge of many people across the globe. While others sees it to be stressful, some sees it to be incomprehendible.many people (especially students) wants to form reading culture, but because they don't know how to read and understand, it will seem to be impossible.

When you want to read and comprehend, you have to make sure the environmental factors that'll favour your reading are in place, such factors include:
-Reading in a noise free area.
-Reading in area free from pollution.
-Reading in an area with little or no distractions.
-Reading in a well ventilated area.
When these factors are put in place, then the next is to make sure you read with enthusiasm. Don't force yourself to read, try to adjust your mental being at the moment.if you don't feel like reading, then you have to make yourself feel so in order to read, if not, it’ll be a waste of time.
Again is knowing where to start the reading from.
A writer, in a interview was asked by the interviewer what writing feels like to him, he gave an astonishing reply, he said “To me, writing is like taking a cold bath at the peak of harmattan (Harmattan is a weather condition in the tropical African regions during the 3rd-4th quarter of the year. Temperature during this period can go as low as -2 to -20°c). For me to achieve this cold bath in such temperature, I'll need to start the bath from the less nerve sensitive areas, then to the most sensitive areas, during this transition from the less sensitive areas to the sensitive areas, the bath becomes enjoyable even admist the cold weather temperature". This answer he gave to the interviewer.
That answer can be applicable to reading, the less sensitive parts are the parts with easier understanding while the most sensitive parts are the parts that might seem complex to understand. During the transition from the understandable ones to the complex ones, a catalyst is created to enhance comprehensive rate, by so doing, reading becomes enjoyable and flexible and in no time, if it's continuously done will become an addiction.
Also, understanding is never to be faked nor forced, Humans have different Cerebral capacity, some understanding requires time, that's why the earlier the reading, the better the understanding.
For people that don't know how to start reading, always remember that the best way to start something is to start it.

Form a reading culture today.

18th birthday in every human life is a very significant birthday and it's worth being celebrated. This is so because it's globally accepted that age 18 is the age for migration to adulthood though still a teenager.

What JAMB Score Do I Need To Gain Admission?

With many candidates having seen their JAMB results, the question they are now asking is the possibility of gaining admission to their desired school and course of choice with their score; especially those that scored below 200. I have received many questions like, “My score is 150, 160, 170, 180, Can I get admission in so so school?” This post is to address your questions. I will make it easy and straight forward to understand. JAMB score alone does not really guarantee admission. Your admission will also depend on your school of choice and course as well as other admission factors. I have seen candidates that scored well above 200 but ended up not gaining admission and I have equally seen candidates that scored below 180 and yet secured admission. Assuming your JAMB score is 200 and you chose a school like UNILORIN, UNIBEN or UNILAG to study a competitive course (like engineering, medicine, computer science, Law etc) you should consider changing either the school or the course r

Student's fate after lockdown

It's been 5 Months since schools were indefinitely shut down as a result of the outbreak of Corona virus pandemic. Students were forced to move back to their homes while many others living off campus might have stayed back No academic activity has been on board all these while though attempts were made to enhance e-learning but all failed as a result of one problem or another such as poor network coverage and inavailability of required devices. Almost everyone thought that the virus spreading would be controlled in no distant time but all were wrong. Little did they know that the virus will migrate from being an epidemic to a pandemic. This frustrated many students since most weren't prepared for such long vacation from school. Properties were left in school including books to be read. Students were left choiceless as many have swept the idea of schooling away from them, while others started a part-time job, others are now into trading and skill acquisition. The idea of s
