We recommend that every student should be understood and it must be a teacher’s responsibility to try and find the learners learning strategy. This research proves that students who are using brain based strategies end up doing well at their grades. They get motivated and they end up successful. They end up knowing what their career goals are. The research covers how important having academic motivation is.
