A new school year is upon us and it is likely that you or your child will be spending more time in your Phoenix apartment doing schoolwork or homework! Studying from home can be challenging! You may find yourself easily distracted by family, roommates, the refrigerator, the TV, and more!
To make this difficult adjustment a bit more manageable, we have put together some back to school tips on how to make the most of studying at home this year.
Establish a Back to School Routine
Treat your study from home as if you are going to class. Set a time to wake up each day, eat breakfast, and get dressed! Having a daily routine can provide structure and signal your brain that it is time to get your schoolwork done!
Have a Dedicated Study Space
Creating a separation between your study area and your living area can be helpful for staying focused when studying or doing homework from your apartment!
Take Notes for Online Classes
If some of your learning will be done online, it is important to take notes, put your phone away, turn off notifications from messages, and close websites that are not directly related to your schoolwork. Taking notes during your online courses also keeps your hands busy and helps turn your attention classwork.
