In language art class with Mrs Taynton, we talked about being an independent learner. For me, being an independent learner means learning with control about ”what am I going to learn ?” , ”How am I going to process ?”, ”Why do I have to learn it ?” you have to chose a main idea before starting. To be an independent learner you have to be engaged, practice a lot, evaluate your sources by being a critical reader. You need to know when to ask for help by asking questions to the teacher when you are not sure.

For me, being an independent learner means also no sharing talking to the others students.

You also need to know how to manage the time and use the time wisely and not procrastinate because when you are an independent learner you can’t waste your time to search wrong things.

Being an independent learner is a way to know the best way for us to learn.

The main idea of being an independent learner is to discover new things by your own. Set up your own goals, and your own way to reach them.
