Thursday, November 17, 2011 5:32 PM Posted by Kids and Teens
It's the start of the new school year and this is the time for you to know more on how to manage your time.

Finding the right study-life balance is not as difficult as you think. There are simple but effective ways to keep you organized, get good grades and still have time to hang out with your friends.

Do a time audit:

Get a notebook and jot down how many hours you spend for each of activity that you do in a day. A time audit will make you aware how you're using your time and whether there are some activities that you need to keep and some that you need to drop.

One of the major time sucks is the mindless use of Internet - for net surfing, chatting, playing games. But if you like spending time online, then why don't you use your broadband connection to get better grades? Avail yourself of online tutorial services so that you can finally ace your algebra and chemistry exams.

Study ahead of time:

You need more time to review and absorb your lessons and finish your projects. When you study ahead of time, you get a higher chance of retaining the lessons that you learned. You also want the luxury of relaxing a day before the major exam. This is essential as only a clear and focused mind will help you figuring out that knotty math problem..

Know yourself:

It's important to know and accept your capabilities so that you will know how much time you need to absorb a particular lesson. Don't get frustrated when you have difficulty learning a certain course subject. That only means that you can finish the easier courses first and then use the remaining time for studying the more difficult subjects.

Get a tutor to help you:

There are just some subjects that perplex you. This, despite the huge amount of time and effort you give to your homework and reviewing for your exams. Work on this weakness by getting yourself a tutor who will provide you with one-to-one teaching and guide you in every step of the learning process. Your parents don't have to bust their budget to get the best tutor. There are several companies that provide high quality online tutorial services at affordable rates. And an online tutor may be the better option if you and your parents are busy because you cab access the online tutor anytime and anywhere with an Internet connection.

Learning how to manage and balance your schedule is perhaps the most important skill set that you need to hone even at early age. This will teach you to know your priorities and prepare you for the challenges that await you in college.
