4. Learning Strategies
To get the most out of this manual, consider the following strategies:

- Seek Feedback: If possible, have a teacher or parent review your work.
6. Common Questions & Tips
Here are some common questions and tips for students using this manual:
- "What if I don't understand a concept?" Re-read the explanation slowly. Look at the examples. If still unclear, ask a teacher or parent for clarification.
- "How much time should I spend studying?" Short, focused sessions (e.g., 15-20 minutes) daily are often more effective than longer, less frequent sessions.
- "I'm making a lot of mistakes in exercises." Mistakes are part of learning! Review the rules related to your mistakes and try similar exercises. Don't be discouraged.
