Rudyard Kipling once a journalist, has this to say about them. I keep six honest serving men

(They taught me all I knew) Their names are What and Why and When And How and Where and Who Students need to develop good reading habits. They must know how to find answers to these questions because they will apply to every subject they read. It is therefore imperative for the teachers to be more involved in their students progress in reading with understanding, for them to become good and effective scholars in the future.
