hey friends!! a lot of you ask me for tips on things all the time + this is just some really good advice i’ve learnt throughout my years of being a student shared with you:
revision
- study frequently so when exams/tests come by you only need to revise your shorter notes [you will thank yourself later]
- i know it’s tedious but try to always do your homework [it’ll help you in the long run]
- do your readings before class, this will help you understand better!!
- use time wisely, for example study on the bus on the way to school [i really like doing this]
- teach yourself material by giving lessons to soft toys or maybe using actual tools found in your household [i like using this method particularly for biology especially with water]
- if you have to read to revise, read aloud
- record yourself to be able to listen later when on the bus or something [i like doing this with poetry]
- make sure to always get enough sleep, it’s not worth it losing sleep over studying! [also i find it better to wake up a little early to revise than sleep late]
- incense works wonders if you’re trying to calm yourself down whilst studying
- keep a hot beverage around when you’re studying + reward yourself by drinking a little bit of it when you want to
- get rid of distractions while you’re studying, put your phone on flight mode or leave it to charge somewhere
- if music doesn’t hinder your attention span, then listen to it whilst studying/doing homework [i suggest classical music/coffee shop noises/rain sounds] ~ [my spotify playlist // classical favourites // get ur studying on // flourishment]
- watch videos on a particular topic before you cover it in class
- if your syllabuses are available online, download them + print them out
- have an organised desk, it helps you feel less stressed
- use the pomodoro technique to study
- make sure you have good lighting
- work out past exam papers if they’re available to you, these are really good practice for your exam!
- talk to your teachers during their office hours if you need to, that’s what they’re there for
- if you’re too afraid to do the latter, send them an email when you need them!
- have different files for every subject to keep you organised
- don’t neglect any subject- just give them the time they need + prioritise
- use a planner/bullet journal to help you plan your week
school stuff
- smile at people, you have no idea how much it could brighten their day [plus your smile is great!!!]
- always keep a water bottle handy
- make your school lunch in the evening so you can sleep a bit more in the morning + not spend your money on school lunches
- always take your headphones + charger to school [if they’re allowed]
- keep some emergency money or something in your pencil case, you never know when you might need them!
- if you menstruate make sure to keep a bag with stuff for when you’re menstruating [if not for you, maybe your friends may need something too]
- take naps on the bus if the journey is long [make sure you don’t sleep + end up on the other side of the city/country]
- if you have free lessons, utilise them! do your work at school if it can be done there so you are able to study/relax at home!
- always take a book with you to school just in case you ever get bored
- go to a guidance counselour if you need one [they can help with practically anything you may need!]
- go to private tutoring lessons if you need them/can afford them
personal life
- take pictures, lots of them!!! not just for instagram or something, they’re actually a really great memory
- don’t forget to visit your relatives every now and then
- watch the news/read articles to help you stay in touch with the real world
- don’t worry so much about social media honestly from experience, it’s trivial anyway. indulge yourself in the real world + spend time with family and friends!!
- don’t compare yourself to others, you’re not them + they are not you!
- try to get some exercise done, even if it’s just using the stairs instead of a lift or dancing around in your room
- always keep yourself hydrated
- remember to take a day off once a week, it’ll help you avoid burnout
- eat fruits/nuts as a snack!!
