15 things to do for back to school 2022

For obvious reasons, I have a very reduced back to school series this year -- but I still wanted to share some useful videos with you and so the next few videos endeavour to help you prepare for the new academic year :)

Frequently Asked Questions:
😇 How old are you? 22
📝 What are you studying? I just finished studying English Literature at the University of Exeter. But we are students for life, and I hope that I will continue learning even though I am out of structured education.
📚What are your favourite books? kzread.info/dash/bejne/jJWksNpunqbZqsY.html
📝 Have you written a book? My life goal is to be a published author and make a living from writing and I am using this year to gain experience, build up a portfolio and work on a book with my agent. I have just finished the final draft of that book, as you can see in this video. I did self-publish a book about bullying when I was seventeen which is available on Amazon (amzn.to/3mdJKLm), but I'm slightly embarrassed by it now!
🎃 Do you have merch? I don't have merch in the traditional sense (I can't imagine selling something with my face or name on haha!), but I do have a stationery company where I sell planners for students. These are all designed with students in mind and follow models which I've used when planning my studying. Our products are printed in pastel colours on recycled paper: bit.ly/3wgsR85

    American Professor here- I'm so happy to see the recommendation to ask your tutors/professors questions. You may think it makes you look foolish, but for me it is quite the opposite. I don't have a lot of students ask questions, so when they do I take note of the fact that they took the initiative to show up, and often note it to add to future reference/recommendation letters that they take that additional step.

    Then of course people who don’t need to ask questions spend class racking their brains for something they can ask, just so they don’t have that negative shadow over them of not having a recommendation letter for sucking up to get ahead. What a drain. They have other things to worry about.

    I just feel your energy shouldn’t be divided between “looking” a certain way to a professor, and actually putting in the work you need to get where you want to go. These pressures do not even apply to those who would never have a concern over being recommended, but people without connections or money need to pay extra attention to all your instructions and their work may suffer. That’s how I feel. Thanks for actually responding. I bet you didn’t read my follow up comments before you did.

    Hi, I might have some tips for you - working on it for a couple of minutes every day is better than not working on it at all - if you pick a subject, check if you find enough sources close to you. If they are not, scrap that subject and change it - read and summarise at the same time and use those in your writing (plus, write the pages and book with the writer next to it)

  • @whynot659
    @whynot659 Жыл бұрын

    thank you for those tips! something else i find pretty helpful: -figure out apps/websites you plan on using(just like your notetaking method). some apps like Anki are not beginner-friendly, so take your time to learn how to do it. -if needed, sign up to the library as early as possible, research websites where you can get books for free or maybe second-hand -set up account(google, mainly) for school-related stuff only(or clear your existing one from all the clutter, spam, etc) -learn to meal prep, figure out how much food you need and what you don't. and also set a system that will remind you to drink water(a cool water bottle? alarms? habit app? you decide what works for you, but stay hydrated!) -figure out what works for you in terms of socialising. does being around people bring you energy? do you like studying alone or it motivates you to have people around? do you need a study partner? -learn spaced repetition. people tend to think that they can learn something the night before the exam, and while(in some cases) you can do that, it's damaging to your health and sometimes to your grades. learn proper intervals(and adjust them for yourself). it's much better to repeat something an additional 2-3 times during the semester than cram days before the exam. and also the knowledge will stick better long-term! hope y'all have a wonderful academic year and good luck

    also! talk to your professors, participate in discussions, meet new people. it might sound really hard, but, first of all, most of people are afraid to speak up and secondly, you are paying for the education, so you might as well get as much of it as possible.

    Just noticed on GoodReads that you've given five stars to the two Jarvis Cocker books - this really surprised me because in your vlogs you tend to talk about classical or ambient music, or movie soundtracks, but not pop music. Do you like Pulp (and JC's solo music too)? You might also enjoy Coal Black Mornings by Brett Anderson of Suede; I believe Brett has also published a book of lyrics too. If you've not posted one already, I think it would be fascinating to see you talk about the aspects of pop culture you enjoy, be it music, comedians, soap operas, cheesey movies, etc. 😉😊

    This is my first year where I am not returning to education and I am so sad - I hated school until I found your first, Study With Me which made me love studying and work to the point where it was too late... Now, I am 27 years old unemployed wondering what to do next, wishing I still gad education time left... All the best to everyone - work hard because it will all be worth it, but also look after yourself. 🖤

    YESS ASK QUESTIONS! I was in class and we were doing trigonometry. I wasn't paying attention that day and didn't understand it the next day. I then felt to embarrassed to ask the teacher and for a good two years I didn't understand trigonometry and was just copying the dude next to me until I ended up having to self teach my self which took longer to learn

    Good luck! I have ADHD as well and once I managed to find the strategies that worked for me I found it much easier to do well. I could tell you more tips if you want but my main advice is to try not to be too hard on yourself. ADHD is a serious disability, so if you get behind on work, miss an assignment or stay up way too late try not to fall into a shame spiral.

    @@jasminesmith4166 Okay sure! Sorry this is so late, I actually just got moved in to uni so I've been all over the place for the past few days. The main tips are: 1: Whenever you get a due date, immediately put it in a calendar or whatever your organisational system is. I have a very simple bullet journal, but some kind of agenda or phone calendar works fine. This can be a hard habit to start, but once it becomes a habit (and it will become one) it's so helpful and relieves the stress of worrying I've forgotten a deadline. 2: Every day when it's time to do homework, look at the deadlines in your calendar and write out a list of all the steps to do each of the projects/tests. So, for an essay it might be like a) get papers out of bag b) review topics c) pick a topic and brainstorm ideas for the essay d) make an outline e) write the essay. The smaller the better cause then you will be less overwhelmed by how much work needs to be done. It can make it look like more work, but once you tick a few off quickly you'll lose that feeling. 3: If you feel overwhelmed with all the work that needs doing, and there's loads of other stuff on your mind like drama at school or stress about exams or extracurriculars, do a brain dump where you write absolutely anything that has been on your mind. I write out all my school projects, all my 'want to do eventually' tasks, all my long term and short term worries. Write it when it comes to mind in no particular order, because then you sort it into categories. My categories tend to be quick tasks, long tasks, things I have to wait before I can take action on, and worries I can't act on but that weigh on my mind. Then you can use the tasks lists for to dos, and it's nice to have your worries written out and out of your brain on paper. I realise this sounds like a lot, and no need to start using it every day strictly with no leeway, because that's a recipe for falling off track and beating yourself up about it even though we all do that cause we're all human. Just try them out every once in a while when they're useful, and then maybe they'll become automatic. I didn't mean to suggest that not feeling so much shame is easy or a quick fix, only that it is important work to continue trying at. Which is sounds like you're already doing, so nice job! Just try to catch the negative and judgmental thoughts, and replace them with things like 'it's okay to fall behind, ADHD makes things really difficult and I'm only human and trying my best'. And I used to feel more shame when I caught that I was shaming myself for something! It's really hard, as I was saying. But it's so nice to not be beating myself up whenever I compare myself to other people, or make mistakes. Anyway, super long comment but I really hope it helps you! ADHD is such a pain, I wish you all the best with dealing with it and good luck in college :)
