No matter where you are, you can be connected via your mobile phone number, email address or social media accounts.
Turn on “Don’t disturb” when you study. If you want to get the most out of your study time, you must reduce distractions. I like spending about 30 minutes reading by using the Kindle app.
Change your mind. One social issue in today’s world is the fear of missing out, which causes us to feel the need to be “connected”. That is one of the main causes of digital distractions.
Turn your “should do” into a “must do”. We all have things we should do. All these “shoulds” pile up and never get done because they aren’t priorities. “Should-dos” have no urgency attached to them, so they fall to the bottom of the pile of things we want to do. When you change a “should” to a “must”, it becomes a priority.
A.I have no social apps on the phone. |
B.Tell others that you won’t be available. |
C.These cause what we call “digital distractions”. |
D.I have also equipped other apps to help me study. |
E.You must prevent this from entering your study time. |
F.No one can avoid them during the daily working periods. |
G.You will free yourself from distractions and spend more time learning. |
Let me explain a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn’t one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can’t read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He’s busy so I think sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.
My dad is by no means the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there’re lots of benefits to reading, which screen-based activities don’t have.
Firstly, it’s better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for you eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night’s sleep.
One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world—I would often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax. I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better.
I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people’s point of view, and understand other people’s decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling—you really can be inside someone else’s head!
So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you’re waking up, going to bed, eating too much, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading!

Every student prefers to get high scores in their exams. But how can you effectively improve your memory and perform well in your exam?
·Try the Memory Palace.
For example, if you want to memorize some English words, you might store “furniture, television.” in your living room and “fridge, cooker...” in the kitchen. Then you can mentally travel through your house to recall each word.
·Create your own songs.
This method has been proven in several studies as a way of sending information to memory. You can use your favorite songs to recreate new songs with information you need to remember. The more interesting you make them, the better the result will be.
·Take some deep breaths.
·
If you are feeling distracted, do some exercise. Studies show that those who have exercised for15minutes and then complete a memory task, complete tasks faster than those who haven’t exercised. Even a simple walk can make a difference.
There are so many suggested methods for you.
