How to do your homework quickly. Useful tips and advice.

And, really, who needs this homework? After all, you can read diagonally a paragraph at recess, raise your hand in time, get your "good grade" and settle down until the next time.

Schoolchildren are a special breed of people who are notable for their quick-wittedness. Especially when it comes to homework not done. What myths they do not invent! Someone's dog ate his notebook, a briefcase forever rested in the river, someone flooded, turn off the lights, cut the Internet, and there was a fire, an emergency move and an overnight stay at the station. Everyone shows their imagination in "excuses".

Homework, like it or not, is not an obligation or a "chore" but part of the educational system. In the lessons you get new material chewed up, and at home you chew it up yourself as best you can. The skill of independent work, the experience of self-learning is incredibly important in cognitive activity, in the development of creative thinking. Further study in higher education assumes that the student is capable of mastering knowledge independently. In addition, doing your homework teaches you self-discipline, organisation of your time. These are also good qualities that will come in handy in life in general. So, look how many positives there are in this "duty"! The picture changes depending on which frame you put it in.

How do you do your homework quickly and efficiently?

Have you ever watched athletes at the start? That's about the way you should start your homework. Take a deep breath and concentrate as much as possible on the thing you're doing. If you watch TV out of the corner of your eye and think about doughnuts, the couch and other pleasures of life, you'll be up late doing your homework.

To get your homework done as quickly and efficiently as possible, you should do the following.

- Gain strength, have lunch. But not from the belly, otherwise it will incline to sleep. You can also lie down, just relax, take a walk, do your favorite activity (preferably not the computer and TV).

- Start by making a plan: how much time will you spend roughly on each subject?

- Start the assignment with written lessons and the easiest subjects for you. This will give you a good sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

- It is a well-known fact that mental strain is much harder than physical strain. The human mind gets tired in two patterns: either the first half hour is better, or the second half hour is better. It often happens that you "slow down" in the beginning, then your brain "warms up" and gets into full gear.

- If you do the exercises mechanically, you will just get bored. Find the strength to love algebra for at least half an hour.

- Often there is a problem with parents who "stand over you": "Did you do your homework?".
