Reading ahead of the teacher and and self learning is s good practice and I find it very helpful to understand what the teacher is talking about... It helps in understanding and retention. Add on reflection and revision at the end of they day and the day lesson would not be forgotten... I do this when I was studying in secondary school (highschool) and it really helps... Unfortunately... A lot of student do not do self studying pre and post... And thus they are not very clear on what the teacher is saying... Not understanding leads to frustration and loss of interest and they no longer pays attention to the teacher... Once you fall behind, it would be difficult to catch up... If you do not build your foundation, the next year lesson which need a firm foundation to be built on would collapse... Year two lesson need clear understanding of lesson during year one... If your basic are not grasped properly... Say bye bye to subsequent year...
