2) Clean Your Workspace
It's advised to have a clean workspace before and after your study session. This helps as a clean workspace increases productivity.
3) Remove Any Distractions
Please remove your phone, mute all notifications. It's common in students and I'm guilty myself of using my phone to scroll away during the now "study" session. Seriously, how many times have yall said that "I'm just checking out a notification, it'll only take 2 minutes", to you now being on your phone 1 hour looking at cat videos. Currently while writing this I am also procrastinating, I'm sorry.
How To Avoid Using Your Phone
- Use it for your note-taking session
- Mute all notifications
- Put it away from your reach
- Switch it off
4) Being More Productive
Now the real question is, how do you become more productive?
- Plan Ahead
Do a to-do list on what you will be covering, this will help keep track of your accomplishments and will prevent any time from being wasted.
- Set A Time Limit and Take Frequent Breaks
It's not healthy to study for long periods of time with no breaks. What I suggest is to study for 25 minutes then get a 5-minute break. This can go for 2 hours and you won't even feel tired. Or, you can try my favorite trick, study for 1 hour then after that, watch one episode of your favorite show that is about 30 minutes long. Continue this process till you've finished studying. This can be done with anime, k-dramas, or your favorite cartoons.
- Have A Reward System
Set a goal for yourself when studying, when you've finished that goal, reward yourself. The reward can be either a short 5-minute nap, making your favorite snack, or being on your phone for a while. This makes you feel motivated to keep on studying.
5) Note-taking Methods
Taking notes is the most IMPORTANT thing to do when studying. It might be a bit daunting and overwhelming to do so however, taking the slightest of notes can be a game-changer.
My note-taking process
Imagine the picture as an A4 piece of paper.
Take an A4 size paper
Fold it into 4 sections (It'll look like a small book)
For each mini page, write out your notes
Label the pages
Write down your notes
These are the different types of note-taking styles you can use.
There you go Fonzies!! Hope this helps you in your next study session.
