Academia 1: How do I revise? (step-by-step)

Image
Hello my beautiful friends! Today's post is how I revise as a step-by-step guide. I know many of you are in the process of doing GCSE/A-Level mocks and are starting to revise for summer exams. I hope this post gives you some revision method ideas. Everyone revises differently, so do not be disheartened if these methods do not work for you. I advise trying a range of revision methods to find what suits you! 1. Revision Cards As you may have seen on my Studygram, I make revision cards for each subject. This is useful for my content-based subjects (economics and physics) to ensure I learn all of the content. I work best through repetition and revision cards allow this. I also use revision cards for maths and further maths to ensure I know the processes and formulas I need to learn. 2. 'Blurting' From my revision cards, I make 'prompts'.

Mental Health 1: My Story

Welcome!

Hello my beautiful friends! Welcome! Today I endeavor on a new project and I am certain that I will commit to it. I am not the best writer, but I aim to express myself to my best ability. On the surface, this blog is an extension to my Studygram on Instagram (@mathsstudygram); however, this blog is a lot deeper. I will pour myself into blog posts with the aim of helping and empowering people. I hope that you will enjoy this journey with me. Aside from being a project aimed to empower others, I also aim to heal myself since I currently suffer with my mental health. Through creating this safe space online full of positivity, I hope to build my own character by working on this purposeful project. Additionally, this blog will reduce my social media intake, which can be poisonous and I know worsens my mood. There will be two main aspects to my blog: Academia and Mental Health. Of course, this blog must be related to academia because it is the child of my Studygram. Like my Studygram, ...
