After searching and trying various tips and techniques, here are the top 10 things you can do that can help you study better!📖
First of all, find a place and time
Your study place should be quiet, inspiring, comfortable and distraction free and pick the time of the day that suits you. Some people work better in the morning, others better at night. But don't study later than your bedtime because it will make you feel tired.
Study every day
If you study a little bit every day you'll be continually reviewing things in your mind. This helps you understand things. It also helps you avoid the stress of last-minute cramming.
Plan your time
Set study alarms, use a planner to write all your tasks or you can bullet journal, make to-do lists, set time limits to complete your tasks. The Pomodoro method has been very helpful for me personally, where you study for 25-30 minutes, then you take a 5-minute break and so it goes on.
Take breaks
Don't pressure yourself and don't over-do it. Take small breaks in between in order to stretch, drink some water, have a snack or a fruit. Then, with a fresh and clear mind get back to business.
Discover your learning style
Most of us have a preferred way of learning. Get to know the learning style you're most comfortable with and study in the ways you learn best.
Ask for help
If you're stuck on something, or something just doesn't seem to make sense, you can always ask for help. Talk to your teachers or lecturers about the things you don't understand. Talk to your friends and fellow students too.
Stay motivated
When you're studying it helps to keep in mind the reasons why you are going through all this hard work, like a course or career you're working towards. It can help to have something in your study space to remind you of your goals. Remind yourself why you started.
Take good care of yourself
You’ll study better if you take care of yourself. Make sure you eat well and get enough sleep and physical exercise. Don't reward yourself with too many sugary or fatty snacks or push yourself to study late into the night.
Color code your notes
Try taking notes and doing homework assignments with colored pens, markers, and highlighters. The colorful notes could improve your visual memory and allow you to access information from your brain during an exam more efficiently.
Study your mistakes
Go back to your old tests and exercises, find your mistakes and try to solve them again and again until you have the right answer. In that way, you can revise and search more.
And that's it for today's article! No matter if you're a school student or a college/university student, these small changes in your way of studying will have surprising results! I hope these little tips were helpful!🥰
To all my fellow students that are sitting exams at the moment or are getting ready for exams or are waiting for their grades, I want you to know that we work/worked hard, we do/did our best and we will make it in the end! I'm proud of you and all your hard work!❤
Everyone, until next time, make sure to stay safe, healthy and hydrated!🌼
