Here are my tips:
- Avoids distractions. Put away computer/laptop, turn off the T.V or anything else like that or even better try to find a peaceful room with none of these things. This will help you focus.
- Be organised. It’s a lot harder to study if you are constantly searching everywhere in your house for a textbook or notes, it also wastes time. My advice is to keep all your academic stuff in one place, try to keep it tidy and at least then you will know where to look.
- Time management. It plays such an important role in studying, if you have lots to do, complete stuff that is due the earliest first. If you know you don’t have enough time to study, it means it’s time to cut down on the amount of television you watch.
- For actual studying techniques. First one is to organise all your notes into one place for every subject. Try to write them in note form which makes it easier for the brain to absorb the information.
- Second technique is to use spider diagrams. For example, you have a geography test on France. Write France in the middle of a blank sheet of paper and draw a circle around it. All the ideas and notes you have about it, you would draw out lines from the middle of the main things you need to remember.
Hope this helps, good luck.

I always found that doing my homework as soon as possible after class makes a very big difference.
I’ve also found that the actual “doing” the homework is not the difficult part. The hardest part for me is forcing myself to sit down to do it. My tip for that is to gather up all the things I need for my homework at my desk and then bring to my desk something I like to read (the daily comics, a catalog, something that I can easily stop reading . . .) then there I am, in the mood to do “sit down” things. Start the homework.
