"All lasting education first begins at home"
Guidelines: How to Learn More in Less Time
General Tips:
- Take up first the subject you most dislike. Once done, the rest of your work will be easy.
- Never leave difficulties unanswered as this will put you into greater difficulties later.
- To make sure you have understood something, try these tricks:
- Pretend you are explaining the lesson to someone else.
- Be your own teacher: question and answer yourself honestly (no cheating).
- Do not continue working when you are tired. Take a short walk, talk to a friend, or do something refreshing. Then come back and finish your lesson.
- Do enough exercise every day. It keeps the mind fresh.
- Do not cut down on necessary sleep to study. It will hurt you later on.
Particular Help:
- Never omit lessons or homework. It is like missing a train you can never catch afterward.
- Always revise the work done in class and ensure you've understood everything thoroughly.
- If memory work is assigned, learn it overnight and repeat it in the morning.
- Always note down the homework assigned for the next day in your diary.
