3 quick tips for better studying

So, you're looking for ways to improve your studying. Here are 3 tips that can help you in your concentration, learning and retention.

• Find a relaxing place to study that works for you.

This could be closing your door to limit noise, studying in a place where you can look out the window, studying outside in your backyard or at a park, and more. Everyone is different, so find something that works for you. Finding a place that helps you concentrate and relax will be helpful for your studying and learning.

• Remember to take breaks!

If you feel like you're losing focus after working at something for a while, feel free to take a break and come back to it a few minutes later. A good way to implement breaks would be to set a schedule, where you work for a certain amount of time, go on a short break, and then come back and continue working.

• Put your phone on vibrate or do not disturb mode.

Little distractions like the beep or notification of a phone can be distracting at times, causing you to lose some focus on what you're currently doing. For me, I like to set my phone away of arm's reach and on vibrate mode, so I don't feel as tempted to reach for it when I'm studying.

These are my 3 tips to improve studying. I hope they help you as well!
