For many high school students it seems that there is never enough time. There are several steps you can take to organize your time better.
First, make a to-do list every day. It makes it easy to plan any of the activities or meetings you may have in addition to homework. Be sure to set priorities (优先事物).
Use spare time wisely. Do you have study hall (自习时间)? Instead of wasting that time, read a book or do homework. If a friend asks you to do something and you have homework to do, realize which is more important and see your friend later.
Decide on the time that is good for you to do certain things. If you are more of a morning person, try getting up an hour earlier and do schoolwork before school. Review your notes every day. If you spend a few minutes at the end of every day going over what you learnt, it will mean less time studying when it is time for the exam.
Studies have shown that getting enough rest helps your memory. When you are tired, everything seems more difficult. It is best to stay on a regular sleeping cycle as much as possible.
Tell your friends and family about your work timetable. Explain that you will be working at certain times and ask them not to disturb you. You can call your friends later.
A. Set goals for yourself. B. Do the most important tasks first. C. You should finish your task on time. D. Get a good night's sleep. E. Also, do not be afraid to say "no". F. Don't take phone calls during the time you set aside for work. G. Don't wait until just before a test to try and remember everything. |
