Becoming a Sucessful online Student

It takes determination, the ability of wanting to learn and becoming successful in life.

I decided to take up on online college because of my two kids. It lets me take care of my kids and,

Get my degree as well. This is the right time for me because; I'm ready to give my family a better

Life than they already have. I plan to discuss my time management, the myths and facts about online college, and how I will fit online studies into everyday life. As I discuss these topics in this paragraph I hope this is why you will believe I will be a successful online student.

I plan on managing my time around my kids. During naps, snack time, meal time, and bedtime.

I'm determined to receive my online degree for Medical Billing and Coding. Managing time is very important because if I didn't manage my time I won't be able to receive my degree. That for me is

Something that I won't accept! Managing time I plan on going to school online at least 25 hours a week.

With this I know I will be able to complete my work and be successful.

A fact and a myth from Power Up well, one of the myths I read was Online Courses are not

rigorous than on-ground course. The fact of that is not necessarily. Online learning varies by course.

Just like the traditional classroom, but, overall you will probably be expected to do more writing, and you will need to participate more actively than you might have to than in a traditional classroom.

The facts and myths surprised me any many ways! I will explain in the next paragraph.

What surprised me the most having to participate more than on campus! Wow and more writing! I know this is the things I need to know to become a online student. Writing this essay helped me to learn all that it takes. I will continue to the best of my abilities to do all that I can to accomplish this goal. I know I have what it takes. With Virginia Online College I have what it takes to get it done!
