So, to be successful in learning, you need to follow some simple procedures.

If you are asked to help, be polite and kind and offer your best.
Talking to each other should be no louder than a whisper. The person sitting on the other side of the room should not be interrupted by your noise.
Respect each other and be friendly. Use your time wisely. Put forth your best
