C2. Read the text about family and choose the best answers.

Self-study is a learning method where students direct their own studying outside the classroom and without help from teachers.

First, self-study allows students to take learning at their own pace, focusing on areas they are most interested in. This helps reduce feelings of frustration, anxiety, or boredom that students may struggle with in a classroom setting.

Second, self-study allows students to be able to think about the topics more deeply and make connections between what they are leaning. Exploring a topic on his or her own encourages students to actively engage with the information. And when students are engaged and excited about what they are learning, they're able to remember it better.

Third, self-study can boost students’ self-esteem. As students do more self-study, many become more self-motivated learners. They are able to see themselves as an independent person who is able to learn new things without anyone helping them. This can be a major motivation boost for students.
