The teacher must Highlight to the student how important it is that he prepare for each study session by reading the lesson beforehand and reflecting on how the material applies to him. The teacher may need to lovingly repeat this information to the one he or she is studying with.
But more than that, the teacher can prepare a lesson together with the student to show him how this is done. The teacher should explain how to find the direct answers to the study questions and help him take note of key words or phrases will help him recall the answer. That will help the student to learn how to answer in his own words. Purposefully, the teacher can ask him to give the answer in his own words. It is a good way for the teacher to know how well the student understood the material.
