How_to_revise_without_ruining_Christmas

-

Christmas and New Year are coming… as well as credits and exams. A vast majority of students get s stressed and still does’t know how to manage a timetable and jungle all these things like credit preparation and holiday time.
I believe that an article that I found on the Guardian will be a great tip advisor for all students. The name of the article is How to revise without ruining Christmas – by exam experts. It contains seven different pieces of advice given by ex-students, lectors and psychologists. You can find it interesting because the tips are quite short and they may really help you.
The first tip is repeating material wherever you are. It is better that you read your notes out loud. It may be useful to rewrite something you cannot memorize to refresh your knowledge.
Secondly, we are supposed to identify the time we are most productive, in order to manage our resources reasonably. It said that the morning is the most productive time of the day for a great number of students; however, the others prefer to work at night. Also we shouldn’t forget about proper duration of sleep.
The third point is about finding out a way of work you prefer. You can create a schedule; for example, a forty-minute lesson and a fifteen-minute break. The writers of the article recommend us not forget about rewarding ourselves with candies or something that will make you stay motivated and determined.
Next point is being creative while learning material. Drawing diagrams and building mind maps, you memorize information automatically. Don’t neglect your chance to work with friends, you can prepare with your pal, check each other and use different apps like Quizlet. You may use your apartment and stick your notes to the items like fridge, mirror and so on. So wherever you go you are preparing for the exams.
There were other tips. You can go to the Guardian and read them all.
It seems to me, that all students must read these tips, calm down and start their work. There should be no panic. We must remember that exams are not the reason to be devastated or depressed, it is just a grain of sand in our life.

      recommend us not TO forget about it: "TO" is necessary

      Do you know the difference b/w "to learn" and "to study"? Check here: difference b/w "to learn" and "to study"

    Thanks to the invention of the worldwide web lots of sites have appeared. There are so many of them that you can choose  them according to your age, interests and necessities.

New_Zeland_Volcan_Eruption

As the world changes, so many disasters occur in our lives. Flooding, hurricanes, avalanches, volcano eruptions and so on. Every time I see the news about it, I can’t leave it without drawing attention to it. It is always terrifying to hear that someone is dead because of natural disaster. It comes to my mind that everyone could be a victim. That’s why I decided to write an opinion essay about New Zeland’s volcano eruption which took place on one of the New Zeland’s island called White Island. White Island is a popular place among tourists. So on the 10th of December there were plenty of them. The tourists weren’t warned about the coming eruption, so 6 people didn’t have a chance to escape. Thirty-one people are injured and stay in hospitals. Due to helicopter pilots and doctors, they are alive. Eight people are still missing. Volcanologists describe the eruption as short-lived and impulsive. Some water flow caused the eruption, so magma started lifting out of blue. Modern-day te...

Possible Essay Topics 1. Do students learn better in same-sex classrooms? A theme of education is considered to be really significant for all society; especially, for the vast majority of parents.  However, arguments still take place in the Education Department. It is really arguable question whether to divide classes according to the sex or not. 2.  Should people be able to donate organs in exchange for money? This very theme takes my interest because recently I’ve read a book which is called Never Let Me Go. It has some similarities with the current topic. I suppose that selling the organs for money is even beyond speaking. Although some people seem to have negative attitude towards it, others lost their hope because they suffer from poverty and they are ready to consider themselves as donors. 3. Should governments be able to censor certain information on the internet? Censorship on the Internet is a good topic for discussion due to the recent accidents in ...
