Hello friends how are you all doing today and thanks for stopping by my blog today I really appreciate it, today I will be sharing with you all base on the topic "Reading habit" in the life of students.

---

As a student it is very important to create and develop a good reading habit because it is necessary in getting good grades.

---

Reading Habit

---

This is the voluntary habit that a student develops while in school for the purpose of becoming conversant with what was being taught in class through the process of continuous reading.

---

Like I'd made mentioned earlier that reading is very important in a student life because it helps in gaining of knowledge and good grades, but some of the problems hindering the effectiveness of reading habit amongst students are;

---

• Bad friends
• Laziness
• Social media

Bad Friends

---

This can be graded into "peer group influence" as the type of friend a person keeps can definitely affect and influence his or her life actions

If a students keeps a friend that likes clubing, smoking, hooking up trust me such a student will get clinge to such a lifestyle and will definitely forget about reading talk less of making it a habit

---

Laziness

---

Laziness is one of the things that causes a student not to be able to develop his or her reading skills, and trust me everyone have been experiencing this one way or the other but it is up to us to so "No" to it and improve our reading habit positively

---

Social media

---

Finally the last and the most disturbing thing that hinders and stop a student from building a positive reading habit is social media, if a students is told to read for an hour you will notice that it will look like you are punishing them but that same student can even spend a whole day on social media without getting tired

Social media is really consuming our students time and it is really terrifying, I remember some months ago in Nigeria a female student fought a lecturer for spoiling her tiktok video, you can imagine

How to improve our reading habit

---

You know habit has to do with something that we like doing like in a daily basis, so some of the ways of improving our reading habit are;

---

• Setting a reading time alarm
• Getting a reading partner
• Developing a desire for knowledge which will prompt us into reading
• Challenging the best student in the class (academic challenge)

^{Some of the above mentioned are some of the positive ways we can improve our reading habit, this will be where I'm going to call it a day and I will like to invite @jahidul21, @sampabiswas & @pinki.chak}
