Good Study Habit

Here is a good study habit I want to share to you. Please read it as it may serve as a good advice on how you can learn well. =)


First of all, motivate yourself to love the topic you are about to study. Once you learn to love it, you would be interested on it. And that is the time when a striving force builds inside you which would urge and help you understand and memorize it easily.

Before starting, make a survey of what are the materials needed in studying it. Also, figure out an overall picture of what needs to be studied in it. This would make you comfortable, for not being disturbed by missing things during the time of studying.

When you study, do not just run your eyes over the books. Read it by actively answering questions the author(s), your instructors, or you have asked yourself. Do not skip the tables, illustrations, or diagrams because they greatly guide you in understanding the lecture.

Also practice exercises in the books. This is especially effective in mastering solving problems in math, chemistry and physics subjects. Quiz yourself in order to know how much you can recall.

Reviewing is an important process in studying. This tightens and intensifies what you have covered in your head. Go over your notes to further clarify what you have not comprehended. The best time to review is right after you have studied.
