School is in full swing, so there are bound to be a few slip-ups. This will be a list of tips to help make this year the best one yet.
1. **Get yourself a planner!** Whether you use a notes app or a calendar, having a tool to remind you of important tasks and to plan your activities is essential.
2. **Practice avoiding procrastination.** Everyone faces procrastination, but learning to overcome it and stay focused is a valuable skill for life.
3. **Study regularly.** Spending just 15-30 minutes reviewing flashcards or going over past homework and tests can help reinforce your knowledge of important facts and topics.
4. **Avoid doing homework in bed.** While it may be comfortable, working in your bed can condition your brain to associate it with other activities rather than sleep. Proper rest is crucial for performing well in school.
5. **Create a study or homework playlist.** Whether you prefer classical music or rap, curate a long playlist to accompany your study sessions. This can enhance your focus and help you stay engaged for longer periods.
These tips are an excellent way to kick off the school year. The more you practice these habits and follow a consistent routine, the better your grades will be.
