a guide on how to stay on top of school💫🌿
use a planner! i know this has been said a trillion times before, but seriously, if you don’t use one, please go get one! this is super helpful to make sure you don’t forget anything. you can also use a bullet journal or an app on your phone (just a safe place to keep your to-do lists!)
make the most of your time in class (even if you hate the class or if it’s super boring!). this will save yourself from extra work for when you get home. also, paying attention in class and asking questions would help you to better understand the content!
also make use of free time. for example, when you’re on transportation, read over some notes or review a quizlet you made. you can also make recordings of yourself reading the notes and listen to them whenever you have free time!
do your homework as soon as it’s assigned!. it doesn’t matter if you have a couple days or a week until it’s due. chances are, you’ll be rushing it right before it’s due. so if you have extra time at the moment, save yourself the stress and at least start on it.
stay organized. for example, we all have that “everything” folder to dump all of our papers in, at least i do. all of the papers from every class quickly gets stuffed in there and can get lost. i’m not saying that you can’t have an everything folder (i do, so i don’t have to carry home heavy binders), but make sure to organize it often.
ask for help. your teachers are there to help you when you don’t understand something, so don’t be afraid to ask a question! also, in my school, my teachers have scheduled hours once a week for students to come in and do their work and ask questions when needed. you can always send a quick email to them or just ask a friend too!
take care of yourself! it’s easy to forget about self care and your health when swept up in schoolwork. make sure relax every so often, and hydrate. also, please get more sleep!!
do your best! if you put in effort towards your work, it will pay off in the future. just imagine yourself achieving all the things you’ve been daydreaming about because of the work you put in now! and for those classes that you really can’t stand, just try to have a more positive attitude and treat it as if it’s one of your favorites (because that’s the only way you’ll pull through).
