Top Ten Study Tips

There are as many different ways to study as there are different people. The following is a list of tips that have worked best for the greatest number of people. Some of them may work for you, some of them won’t, but try them all and work out your own study plan. You cannot change the number of hours, but you can decide how to best use them.

1) Study in the Same Place
Find a secluded place, away from distractions, with plenty of space to work. Once you’ve found it, study at the same place every time. It could be a desk in your bedroom, the kitchen table, or the local library. Laying down on your bed or sprawled across the living room rug are generally not good study places. Also make sure that you keep your spine erect for better level of concentration.

2) Study at the Same Time
Figure out a suitable time of day you can concentrate best, and what works into your schedule. Use that time every day to study. Try to make sure it is not too late in the evening. It is important to have uninterrupted study time.

3) Use a Homework Box
Keep all your homework supplies in one place, ready to be used. Keep them organized, and you won’t need to waste your time searching for resources.

4) Cut out All Distractions
If your Study Place is too warm, you might become sleepy. If it is too cold, your thinking may slow down and become unclear. The TV should be switched off, other people’s conversations should be in another room, music should be turned down, and phone calls should be taken after you’ve finished studying. Any other thoughts in your mind should also be set aside for a later time.

5) Do the Hard Things First
If you are dreading a particular assignment, or you are aware that it requires a lot of extra effort, do it first. Your brain will be fresh. Besides, you won’t have to dwell on it while you are working on other homework.

6) Schedule Long Term Projects
Larger projects need to be broken into smaller components to make them convenient. For example, these components could be such things as gathering notes, writing a rough draft, making corrections or additions, writing a bibliography, and completing the final copy. Set yourself a deadline for completing each component and make sure you stick to it.

7) Review Regularly
Homework is not just that which is assigned every night. A regular review of your notes should be a part of your homework plan. This takes just a few minutes each day, but will pay off considerably when it comes to test time.

Write up a Contract
Each Sunday before a school week, prepare a Weekly Schedule. Update it as the week goes on. Be sure to include times for completing assignments, working on projects and studying for tests.

9) Schedule Each Homework Session
When you sit down to do your homework, make up a quick schedule as to how you are going to use your time. Break it up into blocks of time that you will spend on each task.

10) Avoid Doing a Marathon
If you’ve followed the previous tips, this last one should never happen. However, you need to know that marathon study sessions are the least productive way to study. So don’t keep your things pending till the last moment to avoid unnecessary hiccups.

“Four Candles”

The four candles burn slowly. The ambiance was so soft you could hear them talking.

The first one said: “I am peace! However, nobody can keep me lit. I believe I will go out.”It’s flame rapidly diminishes and goes out completely.

The second one says:“I am faith! Most of all, I am no longer indispensable, so it doesn’t make any sense that I stay lit any longer .”When it finished talking, a breeze softly blew on it putting it out.

Sadly, the third candle spoke in its turn: “I am love! I haven’t got the strength to stay lit. People put me aside and don’t understand my importance. They even forget to love those who are nearest to them.”And waiting no longer it goes out.

Suddenly…A child enters the room and sees three candles not burning.“Why are you not burning? You are supposed to stay lit till the end.” Saying this, the child begins to cry.

Then the fourth candle said: “Don’t be afraid, while I am still burning we can re-light the other candles, I am hope!”

With shining eyes, the child took the candle of hope and lit the other candles.

The flame of hope should never go out from your life…and that each of us can maintain hope, faith, peace and love!!!!
