Dear reader,
My best friend has the same problem, and I always tell her she’s the best and most amazing girl in the world. Before every test I write her a note that says: “Even if you get an F, you’ll always be an A+ to me!” – basically, cheering her on! Once I missed a test, and she ended up getting a good grade anyway. She came to me and told me to guess why. I couldn’t! Finally she said that because I hadn’t written her a note, she decided to write one to herself. (Clever!)
So my advice: before every test, first of all try hard and study well, and second – encourage yourself! Good luck!

Thank you, Like Likro, which I really love, and everyone who writes the books!!!
If you’re trying very hard and still not succeeding, it’s a good idea to talk to your parents about it. Some kids have attention and concentration difficulties. For me, it takes a long time to write tests. My parents took me to get tested, and because of that I got extra time on tests – and my grades improved a lot.
Good luck!

I think that as long as you’re trying and putting in effort, you shouldn’t pay attention to your friends looking down on you. Be proud of yourself for not giving up and for working hard anyway – and when you appreciate yourself, your friends will appreciate you too.
I hope I helped you.

Sometimes there’s a reason why learning is extra hard, and a doctor or a school counselor can help find out what it is and what can help – there are lots of ways to get support. It’s worth asking your parents to check it out with you.
Good luck!

Dear reader,
Believe in yourself! Keep working hard and studying, and most of all, don’t pay attention to what your friends say! If you put in the effort, you’ll succeed! Even if your grades aren’t high, your teacher will see that you’re trying, listening and not fooling around in class, and will appreciate you for it.
Lots and lots of luck!
