Once you know what type of learner you are you can work out how best you can study:
Visual
Social learners like to work with others and may find role plays, tutoring, quizzes or telling others that you will study so they will hold you responsible.
Solitary learners may find it helpful to set goals that they care about and find a way to link personal interest into the subject ie studying a book you like for English.
Generally
Create a calendar or time table not only for what you will study but for when things like exams and internals are due to see when things are and break the tasks down.
Find ways that you enjoy to study which will be easier once you know what type of learner you are and find people who are similar to you and see what helped them to make studying less of a chore.
Grief and loss is suffering a great loss or experiencing the pain of losing someone. Everybody has their own coping methods. While crying is a normal way of dealing with a loss, it’s important that you deal with it in a healthy way. Here are some healthy coping methods
Reaching out to others Seek people who have had a similar experience or who have a good understanding of the situation. They may have valuable tips and ways to help you.
Travel Some people think travelling is running away from your problems when infact its not. Travelling helps remind us of all the good things in life and is almost like a new start and beginning of life again. It also can help you move on.
Exercise Exercise helps release healthy hormones into your brain. It’s also time for you to have self reflection and help you get your life back on track.
Counselling This may seem like a waste of time but it’s a good way of talking to someone and not bottle up your emotions. Counsellors are trained to help in any way they can and it’s a good way to recover.
