How To Optimize Your Summer Break Studying Routine?

What can be better for any student than summer holidays? It’s a great time when they don’t have classes and can plan their time just as they want. Going to the sea, visiting relatives abroad, traveling somewhere, having new emotions and taking bright photos… What can be more exciting? 

Summer Homework: Hell or Heaven?

But all the plans can seem not so wonderful when the word “homework” appears in your head. Yes, some students are assigned to fulfill their summer tasks, and this doesn’t seem so funny and interesting compared to amazing summer vacation plans. 

Many students feel too lazy to complete their summer homework, and this is not a good solution because they have to do everything at the last moment, or get a bad grade from teachers. Both situations do not seem so happy. In our article, we are going to give useful and effective tips on optimizing your summer break studying. 

Tips on Completing Your Summer Homework

If you have decided to fulfill summer homework but have no idea how to plan your time wisely, the tips below will help you:

• Evaluate the amount of your homework. Before you start doing something, you need to understand how much homework you have on all subjects. Only after this, you can plan your time correctly.
• Divide your homework into small parts. You need to decide how much time you are going to spend on homework. Maybe you plan to travel abroad for a couple of weeks in summer, so it will be wise to not plan any homework for those days at all.
• Follow your plan. Laziness will always give you a temptation to skip your everyday work and do it later. But you should understand that you will have to complete all the tasks in the last week before classes will start, and it’s not a good idea at all. 
• Provide yourself with a prize. Every day when you have done a part of homework, do something pleasant, so it will help you to fight with laziness and temptation to skip your work. Buying an ice-cream, going with parents to the cinema, or having lunch with your best friend are great options that will keep you on the homework schedule.
• Do not torture yourself. Sometimes, we all can feel tired or sick, and if it happens with you, do not overload yourself with tasks. Just reschedule your homework and give you some time to recover. Your body and soul will be thankful to yourself for a short rest.
• Make homework with friends. Try to fulfill tasks together with a friend or even with several students from your class. Maybe it’ll be easier to complete assignments together, and as a plus, it will not be so boring. But try not to get distracted by anything because it will take too much time. Learn to work in a team and be disciplined even without a teacher.  
• Turn off all the gadgets. When you are working, concentrate on the task without being distracted by anything else. Chats with friends, watching videos on YouTube, and commenting on some cool pics will wait. finish your homework, and only then have some fun with a smartphone, play on a PS, or watch your favorite movie on TV. 
• Ask others to not disturb you. It’s better to tell other people whom you’re living with that you are busy with your summer homework everyday just for an hour before lunch. This will help to avoid some unpleasant moments when you can be distracted by a phone call, or if your parents decide to talk to you. Inform people about your “busy hours” to organize your time better. 
• Do not work every day. When you are scheduling your homework, do not plan to fulfill tasks every day because it will make you tired over time. Instead, you should take a couple of day-offs every week. It will help you to rest from homework and get energy for another day when you have to fulfill your tasks.

As you can see, planning and optimizing your summer studying schedule isn’t so difficult. We wish you good luck with your assignments, and have a great summer no matter what you are planning!
