Getting into the right focus for serious studying can be difficult. With roommates or family, incoming messages, the internet, and so on, it’s easy to focus on other things, which can leave you unprepared for your tests.
If you are on campus, roommates and dormitory can be loud, and if you are studying online from home, you might have to deal with your family’s comings and goings.
Another easy way to get focused on your study plan is realizing you need something that you forgot outside your study space. For example, be sure to have all the pens, notebooks and textbooks you will need to complete your work.
These simple steps can create quiet and calm space for you to get to work. Putting time and effort into your studies is the most important part of attending college. So set yourself up with a study space that suits you now.

【推荐1】A habit is the result of repetitive action. The more often an action is repeated, the stronger the habit is.
In fact, most of our daily routines are made up of different habits. Picking up the newspaper, putting the kettle on the oven and making a cup of tea in the morning are all habits that have become routines over a period of time.

【推荐2】Simple Ways to Give Great Praise to Motivate Everyone on Your Team
*Recognize a project hero.
Did someone on your team go the extra mile on a recent project? Is there anyone who was critical to their success?
*Notice your unsung(被埋没的)heroes.
The best way to have high performance at all levels of your team is to, “Create heroes in every role. Don't forget your unsung heroes. Make sure every role performed at a level of excellence is treated as a respected profession.” Maybe they are the lowest paid, or the ones that do the most repetitive work.

As your team grows, it becomes harder and harder to keep a close eye on the work of everyone on your team. What you see can be very different from the things they actually do behind the scenes.
It’s easy to catch a problem in someone’s project. Unfortunately, if you only focus on what’s wrong, you can discourage your team.
*Praise any improvement in the work.
When you’re trying to turn around an underperformer, or just coach up someone’s weakness, praise can make all the difference. It takes hard work and focus to improve at something you're struggling with.
Think about when you were a kid trying to learn to ride a bike, throw a ball, or learn to read.

【推荐3】Learning a language doesn’t happen in a day.
•Study a little bit every day but efficiently
When you organize to learn a lot of vocabulary or study several grammar patterns that are pretty challenging, your mind can’t take all of them simultaneously (同时地). Therefore, it is better to start with little steps and learn a little bit every day. It is often more efficient to learn 10 new words every day instead of learning 100 new words in a day.
•Don’t be afraid of making mistakes
No one likes making mistakes. It affects your confidence and you are embarrassed (尴尬的) especially if there are more people around you. But when you learn a foreign language, making mistakes is something quite normal and expected. If you make mistakes, it isn’t the end of the world. Try to learn from your mistakes.
• Track Your Progress
Checking weekly or monthly progress against your language goals is highly-recommended. You might track the sentence structures learned, the phrases memorized, or the lectures followed. Being aware of your progress can help you see how much your efforts pay off.
A.Make them useful experience. |
B.Try hard, and you will finally succeed. |
C.It takes a lot of time, organization, and effort. |
D.You won’t remember all the 100 words, after all. |
E.It is not only challenging, but also full of fun when you enjoy it. |
F.You can also treat yourself with a small gift when you reach a new level. |
G.The previous tips are from successful language learners who gladly shared them with you. |
【推荐1】Habits to be a highly effective student
Some students are able to get straight A’s and at the same time serve as the president of three clubs. However, some students struggle to keep their GPA (Grade-Point Average) above a 3.0.
Create a weekly schedule.
Take frequent, short breaks. Taking a break from studying for 15 minutes every hour will help keep you refreshed.
Take care of yourself. During final exam week, it is common for students to fall behind on sleep and meals. Make sure you get a good night’s sleep and have regular meals.

【推荐3】If you want to do well in class, studying is one of the best things you can do to boost your grade. The following tips will help you do your best in class.
·Study in 1-hour blocks.
·Plan regular breaks.
Step away for a few minutes every hour so you don’t feel overworked. Since studying takes up a lot of energy and brainpower, schedule in 5-10 minutes every hour when you just relax.
·
Work on difficult concepts when you have the most energy. It might sound like a good idea to save tough subjects for later, but you won’t feel as motivated to learn about them. Instead, choose the class or subject you have the most trouble with and work on it right away when you sit down to study.
·Rewrite your notes in your own words.
Organizing your notes helps you keep information a lot easier. Go through all of the notes you’ve taken and pick out the information you think is most important. Rewrite the notes on a separate page or in a different notebook.
•Reward yourself when you finish.
Treat yourself to something small when you reach your study goals.
A.Focus on hard topics first. |
