備考	Attending class is the most important factor for the success of this course. In addition to good attendance, being on time is also very important. If a student fails to meet the minimum attendance and punctuality requirements, they may fail the course. As we all know, life is hectic and requires a lot of energy in many areas, for both students and teachers. It is therefore essential to have the necessary energy in order to be productive in this course. This requires that all students to be well rested and have good attitudes about learning. Without a sound mind, body, and spirit, effective learning cannot take place. An equally important thing to keep in mind is the idea of courtesy and common sense. Students must have both in order to pass the course as well as succeed in life. And finally, learning English is a challenging task that requires continued effort, but while enjoying the time spent in doing so. Good luck!
