Hi Alexia :hello:

Whilst at university, I found that - to get the most out of my revision - I had to discover my best way of revising. This involved figuring out what kind of a learner I am. Think VARK. Are you a Visual learner, Audio learner, Reading learner or Kinetic learner. Use study techniques that will promote the best learning for yourself. For instance, perhaps mind maps, with lots of colour would be best for you? Or maybe flashcards are a good way for you to learn? It's also good to figure out the best way for you to take notes. Some people need to write things down in order to remember them, whilst other prefer to type.

I would also recommend SMART studying - It much easier to implement a regular and successful study schedule if you are studying SMART.
o Set yourself goals.
o Make study techniques that promote greater results.
o Ask for help.
o Reward yourself for progress.
o Take a Break.

S: Set yourself goals for study. For example, make up an exam/essay question and work towards answering it.
M: Remember VARK.
A: If you are struggling with anything ask your teacher for help. Their job is to help you with your studies. Alternatively, use study guides or the internet to help breakdown tough subjects.
R: When you hit your goals, complete work and meet important deadlines reward yourself with treats. For example, make watching an episode of your favourite show your reward for completing tasks.
T: When you’ve finished studying take breaks. Go for a walk, hang with friends or get a cup of tea and watch TV. It’s important not to overdo revising.

I hope this helps! If you have nay questions, feel free to ask!
