Online school is hard and time-consuming. I miss being able to study with friends and asking teachers questions. The new online school life style has changed my study routine up. If you need to change your study routine, these tips could guide you in to reaching your full potential at school.
Make a list of all the concepts on the test
Make sure to include all possible topics you could be tested on. Highlight the concepts you are struggling in, so you can review them more extensively compared to other concepts.
Set 45 minute Focus Time
I study in 45 minute sets. I study for 45 minutes and follow with a 5 minute break. After my break, I review the concepts I learned in the 45 minute break or do practice problems for about 20 minutes. I begin my next 45 minute set and continue until with the sets until I am contempt.
Drink Water
Drink water. It allows you to focus and keep yourself hydrated. Drinking water makes you more attentive and fresh. Keep drinking water.
Watch videos
I watch videos and take notes on concepts I struggle on. It is easier to watch videos to learn a concept than reading an article. Watching the concept allows me to grasp it easier.
Change positions
I always change positions to keep my attention. Sitting in one spot can get your body restless. I change positions every 45 minute period.
Dance or Stretch breaks
Sitting in one spot can cause you to become fidgety. When you feel extremely tired and need a pick me up, play your favorite up beat song and dance to it. Dancing increases your endorphins making you feel happier. You can also stretch if your muscles are becoming sore!
Make your own notes
I know it is time consuming, but this is my most important tip. After reviewing all the concepts, make a one or two page document filled with important notes or formulas that you have to remember. You can review this one page document before you take your test to refresh all the knowledge.
