How To Study Hard!

These 10 Steps helps you to keep studying hard, whether it's for a math test, English test or anything else!


1. Focus.


Keeping focused is vital in studying successfully. Make sure your family give you peace and quiet whilst you give them grey cells a full work out!


2. Music.


This is optional, as some people tend to be able to focus more without music. 


When I say music, I don't mean Gothic heavy metal bands, I mean slow easy relaxing music. Even whale songs might come in handy. 


Ask your mum or gran if they have any CDs of this kind of music and if not, you can easily play it on YouTube!--> http://www.youtube.com/


3. Take Breaks.


You also must make sure you don't overwork yourself, as it can cause you to become stressed afterwords, or even make you get muddled up with your studies. 


Also note not to take too long breaks because then you will get back into lazy relaxed mood which will take you back to square one on the focus grid! :) So I recommend 5-19 minute breaks where you can grab a sandwich and juice if peckish.


4. Set Targets.


If you like to play football for instance, say to yourself 'Once I've finished studying, I can play an entire match of 5-a-side'. But use this method for YOUR favourite hobbies ;)


Be careful when doing this though, make sure you aren't rushing it.


5. Think about what'll happen afterwards.


Imagine after all your hard work has payed off. Think about getting an 'A'/'A+', or any other high mark.


Imagine how proud your parents will be! Unless of course getting an A+ is totally normal for you, of course... :-)


6. Start Easy.


If you are struggling at first then try starting at an easier bit, then work your way up to the harder pieces of work.


7. Tell your Teacher!


Once you have finished, maybe leave a note at the bottom of the page telling your teacher that you have worked especially hard on studying that week. Your teacher will probably be impressed and higher your mark/grade a bit!


8. Get Help.


Ask an adult at home to help you out with your work. If you don't understand a bit, maybe they'll be able to explain it too you a bit better.


9. Sacrifice.


When studying, you might need to give up football practice, or shopping with your friends. I don't mean to sound like your Mother, but then again, whats more important? Shopping, or a good education?


10. Supply up!


Make sure you'll have everything you'll need to successfully study. Paper, pencils, rubbers and textbooks are what you'll mainly need, but depending on what you'll be practicing, you might need more resources.


Hope this helps, and good look on whatever test your studying on!! :)
