Tips&Tricks for students w/ADHD

Hello!

I have adhd and struggle with being a good student, these are a few tricks that help me stay focused and on track.

•A planner is your bestfriend!

Having all the dates written when things are due, and putting them in a day before so you’re not rushing at the last second to do your work.

I suggest putting starting it as soon as you figure out what the assignment is, so that way when you decide not to touch it again till it’s due you’ll have some things already in the works!

•List

Writing a list the night before or morning of a day to keep track of what needs to be done that day. This also a great way to not feel so overwhelmed. Put some simple things in there you can cross off easily to feel good about it!

•Apps to keep you off your phone!

Doomscrolling and focusing on other things in stead of doing our homework is so much more fun and easy… that’s why I use this app to make sure I stay on track. I set a time I want to do something and leave my phone alone, it takes a little honor but being able to have your garden that you built off hard work makes it so much better. If you end up downloading the app I suggested my friend invite code is: Stay focused with me on Forest and turn our focused time into adorable trees! Enter 5NX2D7MSG when you register!

•Pomodoro studying techniques

There’s so many different types of these videos but they’re basically are studying for 20 minutes and then break for five. It helps you not get distracted by TV or music with words. I like to put these on and go ham for an hour. It’s also good to make sure you’re trying to review everyday! It takes no time to look over what you wrote down earlier and look more into what confuses you there. I also love looking at quizlets and playing the games to help memorize.

What other tips/tricks do you have to share?! Let’s start this semester off right ❤️‍🔥
