I have gathered some tips to help you feel calmer and more positive about exams or assignments that are ahead .
Now take a deep breath, smile and believe that you can do this.
1. Planning
I make a plan which contains all of the things I need to include in my assignments or I list all of the things that I need to revise for. Making a plan of action is the best thing to do for you because it can help you keep organised and focused on each task.
For example if I had to write an essay I would make a plan like this...
Introduction - Set the scene on what you are going to talk about
Main body - Add a for and against argument in each paragraph
- Topic 1
- Topic 2
- Topic 3
Conclusion - A summary of what you have spoken about and add your opinion.
2. Music
I found when I was studying for exams that instrumental music what best for keeping focused on what you are doing. By listening to this type of music you are not focussing on the words of the song but mostly listening to it as background noise. I used mainly movie soundtracks.
3. Time
I used the Pomodoro Technique to help me study. This technique is a time management method which uses a timer to break down work into 25 minute sections that are separated by a short 5 minute break or a long 10 minute break.
So when all this is over. Stop worrying. Relax and have a fantastic summer
