Here are some simple study tips to improve efficiency and productivity to get more work done in less time!
Make a daily to-do list in the morning.
Create a study playlist, I’d suggest you add white noise, classical music or lo-fi songs to improve concentration the most.
Make a plan of effective study methods for each subject, for example, doing past papers for Math or reading the textbook for Business studies or doing the workbook for English.
Go through a list of study tips that work for you before you start studying so you can follow them more dedicatedly.
Find healthy alternatives to coffee, like fruit milkshakes.
Find something fun or exciting to do during breaks that is not distracting, for example, playing an instrument or going for a walk. Avoid doing distracting things like calling friends or going on social media until your study session is over.
Use different colored highlighters for different important parts of highlighted sections.
Answer textbook questions out loud.
Eat fruits while studying. This makes eating fruits feel like less of a chore because you’re preoccupied.
Have a water bottle next to you before you sit down to study.
Annotate your textbooks.
Take note of things you didn’t know while reading a textbook chapter.
Do extracurricular work in breaks.
Only go on social media during planned breaks.
Power naps greatly improve mood and productivity. Do not force yourself to study if you’re tired, take a thirty minute nap and then start studying.
Go for walks if you start feeling tired.
Take stretch breaks.
Set breaks at least half an hour prior, and decide on the length of the break before it starts.
Finish your phone calls before you start studying, do not try to multitask by studying and talking to a friend at the same time and only answer calls during study sessions to tell them you aren’t available.
