🌸•independent learning•🌸

on friday at my school, we had an independent learning conference with some rlly useful tips that i thought i would share! this is post 1/5 :)

speed and skim reading

to read things quickly, first skim read to get the gist of the text, then speed read

skim reading:

read the first + last paragraphs

look at any diagrams, pictures, titles + text in bold (the author obviously wanted to draw attention to these parts!)

if you still don't know what the text is about, read the first sentence of each paragraph

this should give you an idea of what the text is about

speed reading:

read in blocks of words (use eyercize.herokuapp.com in order to practice!)

keep the text parallel to your face, around 50cm away

run a pen under the words to keep your eyes focused (or spot your pen under the blocks of words you read)

by using these techniques, i improved my reading speed from 532wpm to 730wpm!! (approximately haha) they really work! hope this helps xoxo

wokay geog took me a lil longer than expected i guess i 'overthought' and went searching for a few more articles to read up on? but still it was interesting to make connections between what i was studying and the natural disasters that are happening in the world right now. i find that relevance to real life makes studying easier and it was heartwarming to see all the instances when the international community rallied together to help disaster victims :")

moving on i hope to finish a math paper and chinese paper in the afternoon;-; it's gonna be a lil tough but i have faith in my writing speed HAHAHA

[coralstudiies]

some biology notes on enzymes ft my overflowing todo list that isnt very long anyway + i probably wont follow it HAHAHAH

enzymes are pretty fun to learn about imo although it's a basic chapter but it's still nice to go over it again.

i also did some chinese comprehension which pretty much slayed my last remaining brain cells

happy thursday y'all :)

well this is awkward

hi again everyone!

its me, charlotte, back from my (very long unannounced) hiatus! sixth form life is really hard -so much work and more extracurriculars, jobs and even relationships have gotten in the way! but here i am, back to studyblr like i always am.

what this break has made me realise is how hard it is to create content for studyblr all the time! my notes rnt that pretty - i lose all of my highlighters and fancy stationary so theres no point in buying it, and i dont do a bullet journal (altho i envy those who can!!). i think my strength in the studyblr community is describing HOW i study - who needs photos when you have instructions?? so thats going to be mainly my content from now on.

i have rlly missed this uplifting community and all of my (now 6500!!) followers, and i hope i actually stick to using this now - oxford is still the goal and im going to do my very best to get there!

lots of love,

charlotte xoxo
