Studying for exams doesn’t always come easily. Sometimes you can’t pay attention to what you need to do. At other times, you can’t figure out how to organize your study to make good use of time. With the Pomodoro Technique, you will be better at how to plan your time.

The Pomodoro Technique is a method with around 25 minutes studying periods divided (分割) into 3 to 5 minutes’ breaks.

While you are during a pomodoro (番茄钟) , it’s important not to distract (分心) yourself. That’s why I don’t advise you to study at home. You may be distracted by remembering the floor to sweep, or clothes to wash. It’s better to go to a quiet library, where the Pomodoro Technique will work.

But there is something more efficient (高效的) than planning your time. If you have a clear goal, you will work better. Here are more tips to improve your performance.

Motivate yourself.

Have a goal, make a wish board or watch interviews of successful people who encourage you. It’s up to you to find what motivates you, but when you do, studying will get easier.

Get enough sleep.

Short sleep will make you unhappy and influence your memory. An irregular sleeping habit may lead to many heart diseases and other illnesses. So you’d better get up or get to bed at the same time every day.

Clean your workspace.

In a clean environment and with a clear goal, studying will be more pleasant and effective.

In fact, there are many ways for us to learn efficiently. Whichever you choose, what suits you is the best.
