Study Tips!

These few months are the time where most of us, students are taking big exams or assessments and it could be very stressful. You may be like me, and don't like to study until the very last minute, cramming, and I have to agree with everyone else that is not how you study. I made up some tips and tricks that might help you:
If you learn best by hearing:
  • record yourself and play it back many times- be your own lecturer 
  • have a read-out-load session with friends- study with friends, but remember to stay on task
  • pay close attention during lectures- you might like lectures because you learn best by hearing
If you learn best by seeing:
  • look at the board or teacher more than your notes- don't hide behind your papers looking down all the time
  • make pictures or photos that remind you of the gist- flashcards with pictures or a powerpoint slideshow of pictures 
  • look up people by their images- when you research someone you don't know, don't just look up their birthplace and career choice look up their pictures throughout their life too
