That is why we are going to give you some advice and tips that will help you acquire some study habits that good students have , successful students. Now you can become one of them.
What are study habits?
Study habits that will make you a better
student
Would you like to know what study habits will
make you a better student? Perfect! Here are 10 study habits that will help you
learn smarter and more effectively.
1. Set a goal
Before starting to study daily you must be
clear about what you want to achieve with all this. Being clear about your
objectives and your motivations to undertake this path will be the key that
will lead you to achieve your goals, that will keep you motivated and that will
make you avoid procrastination.
2. Good planning is essential
Having a correct planning is essential if you
intend to achieve a goal. It is your road map, the base that will make you
follow a certain path and that you do not stray from the course if adversity
arrives.
3. Study every day at the same time
To get a good study habit it is recommended
that the study is always done in the same periods of time. This will make your
brain end up assimilating those moments as study time and be more predisposed
to understand the information in this time interval.
4. Avoid study binges
Studying for long periods of time without a
break is counterproductive to your memorization. The best way to study is
little by little, with small sessions of time well spent. In short periods the
brain assimilates much better the information to which you expose it. It is
proven that it is better to study ten sessions of one hour than one session of
ten hours.
5. Rest is a priority
Many times, either because we have little time
to study or because we have started studying too late for an exam, we
substitute hours of sleep for hours of study. But you have to keep in mind that
no matter what happens, you should sleep between 7 and 8 hours.
6. Always study in the same place
It doesn't matter if you do it in the library,
in your room or at your aunt's house, the one in town. The important thing is
that you always study in the same place, as it will help you avoid unnecessary
distractions. When you are used to a place, the stimuli of the place are part
of the routine, so you do not hear noises, nor are you distracted by the
environment. Having a suitable place to study every day will improve your
concentration and, therefore, your performance.
7. Set small goals every day
Setting yourself a small goal every day will
help you concentrate and be more predisposed to study. If you know that today
you have the goal of learning the periodic table, you should not get up until
you have achieved it. Setting small goals will help you stay motivated,
increase your concentration and prevent you from getting distracted.
8. Learn to teach.
One of the best habits you can acquire to
improve as a student is learning to teach. This means that you must introduce
an oral presentation of what you are studying into your routine. You should
approach it as if you were explaining it to someone else to make it more
effective. It does not matter how much information you have studied today. If
you do it every day and incorporate it into your routine, it will give you a
clear vision of the knowledge you have on the subject, it will help you
mentally structure, assimilate and internalize the information you have
studied.
9. Forget mobile devices.
No smartphones during the study. Yes, what you
hear. Nothing. Even if you don't want to admit it, mobile devices are a
constant source of distractions. If you are one of those who cannot live without
your smartphone nearby, you should put it in airplane mode during the time you
spend studying. In addition, you can also take advantage of your mobile to use
some apps created especially to help you with your routines, such as Forest
App.
10. Reward your effort daily.
Just as you have set small daily goals that
you must meet, you need to reward yourself with something after achieving your
daily goal. A big prize is not necessary: a coffee, a couple of pages of that
book or a walk with your dog can be the prize. Doing something you like every
day after achieving your goal will help you stay motivated and create a good
study habit.

study routine are you doing well? What do you do wrong when you study and how
can you improve? If so, the best way to analyze your habits is to take a
questionnaire that clears up all your doubts to optimize your study routine as
much as possible, don't you think?
