What could as a student be doing to be more successful in this course

well you could do the work or play attention in class or also participate in class or turn in assignments on time

Explanation:

I am not saying you don't do these things I am just giving suggestions of what other people say or you could say if you Don't do those stuff but like what I said are suggestions like u can say other stuff

A student can be respectful to the teacher so they can understand what they will have to do. Also they can not sit somewhere where their going to talk

Sorry I tried
