Study TESOL Online
Studying online is here to stay and it’s being embraced as the study method of the future. It offers a much more convenient and flexible way of learning that suits more people from all walks of life. You can study from anywhere, at any time, making it a great option for busy individuals with work or family responsibilities. You can also take advantage of the latest technology with interactive lessons and engaging tutorial videos, providing a high-quality learning experience. Here are five tips to help you make the most of your online TESOL learning experience this year:
Create a dedicated study space
Having a dedicated space for studying can help you stay focused and free from distractions. If you don’t have a dedicated room, the act of making a space yours will help you take ownership and stay on track for the long run. Choose a quiet and comfortable location with a set desk or table, and remove any unnecessary clutter or distractions. This, if possible, also includes your phone. A brief digital detox while you’re studying will do your brain wonders. Trust us, you’ll thank us later!
Set a schedule and stick to it
One of the benefits of online learning is the flexibility it offers, but it’s important to establish a regular study schedule to keep yourself on track. Set aside specific times each day or week for coursework and make sure to allocate time and block out distractions. Having a schedule will also help you balance your coursework with other responsibilities and activities. We recommend setting a task reminder in Google Calendar to ensure you remember when it’s time to study and commit to it.
Take breaks and practice self-care
It’s easy to get burnt out when you’re studying online, so be sure to take breaks and practice self-care. Step away from your computer or device every hour or so to stretch, get a snack, or just take a short walk. Make sure you’re getting enough sleep, eating well, and taking breaks to relax and do something you enjoy. It’s important that you balance study, work, life, and hobbies for long-term success.
Take advantage of online resources
Online learning offers a wealth of resources to help you study and complete your coursework. Take advantage of these resources, including guided trainer videos and comprehensive study guides. Our online courses also offer ongoing open support, so you can reach out to your trainer at anytime when you need it.
