Everyone learns in different ways!
It can take trial and error to find the best study method that works for you. Perhaps you’ll learn more effectively if you break up your study into bite-sized chunks rather than long blocks. Also, you can schedule your study during the times that are best for your brain, whether that’s early in the morning or in the evening.
Planning is a must, especially during busy weeks. A physical planner can help you to see everything at a glance. To start your studies as prepared as possible, it is useful to bookmark important resources and download your unit guide PDF’s, web resources, and readings in advance.
Take time out when you need it
Research suggests that regular breaks while studying could be the key to creativity and learning new things. Having downtime when you’re balancing many commitments is important because it can help you stay focused when you are studying. Whether it’s a walk, a chat with a friend or some exercise, take time out when you can to reset and recharge.
Tell your friends and family
Inform your friends and family of your commitment to study. When you’ve told others of your goals, not only will it help you stick to them, it will also help you to say “no” to the occasional social engagement, if necessary, to complete an assessment.
Reach out to your Student Support
You can reach out to your dedicated trainer for each unit and Student Support via the Student HUB with questions or concerns. Having regular contact with them can help with motivation. If you ever have a question they can’t answer, they’ll find the best person to help you.
