I’m Shokhsanam Azizova. I study at University and I won the President’s 
scholarship last year. I regard my parents and teachers every time. I achieved 
more success than my friends, do you know why? i prefer to be an independent 
learner. because you can control your study time or spare time yourself, you can 
choose the place, time and subjects yourself, there isn’t a teacher looking over 
your shoulder all the time, you are responsible for your success.Yeah…, there 
are full of risks too: wasting time, forgetting things that must be done, missing 
essential deadlines, not getting down to study, not addressing for weaknesses, 
ignoring feedback, losing motivation, and not asking for help. But ... if you 
manage time effectively, meet deadlines, use spare time effectively, organise a 
place to study, you will be more independent and self-issuer. Never be ashamed 
of asking for help if you need it. Remember our teachers are always ready for 
help!
