1. Set Goals.
The first goad or aim should be the successful competence of the particular course.
It is very useful advice because the good planning of some actions may be the half of the work to do. You can divide your task to some separate parts and than try to finish by these parts. That will simplify the learning of material.
2. Your Learning Must be Gradual and Steady.
• Make a study calendar in which you will be inserting the important meetings, completed and not yet started tasks. It may remind you of doing some extra job or simply be the index of your progress.
• Find for yourself the best time for your studies. It may be free time after some job or maybe when your room mate is away. Choose if these are weekends or so me particular working days. You can also define special hours for that purpose.
• During your work time take some breaks which will give an opportunity to relax and gain some strength before doing the further parts of your studies.
• Try to have a concrete stable place of work or study place. It’s very desirable to have the supplementary equipment and needed facilities not too far from it.
• Pace yourself. Escape self overestimation. There's a reason it takes several years to graduate from traditional university. You're in this to learn, not just to get a certificate, so make sure you're learning, not just racing through the materials.
3. Discuss It.
• Share with people what you are doing. You're more likely to stick to a course if your co-worker knows you're doing it. If you are studying high-tech or internet development, the person might just know a programmer he can hook you up with for tutoring.
• If you have already learned about people who are doing the same work, you can ask them for help if necessary.
• Also ask somebody to check and proof our work before passing it.
4. Join a Study Group.
• If you study some foreign language you can visit some language society that might give a possibility to make some exchange in the country the language of which you are learning.
• Find some tutor. He or she may help you with the practical performance of your knowledge.
• Internet is a wide source of information, so don’t ignore it.
5. Define the Learning Style You Are Using and Keep to It.
• If you are interested in some technical discipline don’t lose a chance to master your knowledge while dealing with technical equipment connected with your discipline.
• Try to involve yourself in the topic you are learning, in that case the material will got stuck to you better.
• Start practice straight after the theory is completed.
6. Mark the Successful Fulfillment of the Study Tasks or Passing the Examinations.
• Be proud of yourself when completing the task, thank yourself and reward with something special.
7. Put Questions.
• If you don’t understand something, so don’t be scary or ashamed to ask a question, if you find out what is that you don’t know, you will know it for sure!
The main thing during the process of studies is to memorize and not forget the material you have learned. (Not passed but learned). If you were maid by someone to learn it, you will doubtfully remember it, you need to have strong desire to have this information in your head.
