Let’s talk about study methods... These are some of them.
Studying psychology is great and all but nobody prepares you for the existential dread after each class
Here you have my personal tips to learn English (could work with your target language too) in a more effective way. Some of them may be too obvious:
Watch series and movies in English with English subtitles until you're prepared enough to understand almost everything without them. You will acquire many grammar structures without consciously learning them.
Focus on fluency rather than on accuracy.
Follow English-speakers on your social media.
Read in English things that genuinely interest you so that the learning gets more meaningful.
Avoid memorising words without context.
Don't rely on translations too much, try to guess the meaning from the context. Think in English.
Read the lyrics while listening to an English song.
Quizlet is a great app to make flashcards and study vocabulary. However, instead of creating them with translations, do it with definitions and pictures.
Change your phone language to English.
When you're learning new vocabulary or structures, write down examples related to your life.
Write a diary in English.
And maybe the most important one: don't be afraid to talk, to communicate, to make mistakes. Don't worry about your accent. Forget about what other people may think about you. Keep trying and keep improving.
let’s treat ourselves more gently. let’s go to bed early. let’s rest when we need to. let’s live life in a way that doesn’t make you feel burnt out after a few weeks. i want us to have fun, to enjoy everyday life, to be present and not to always push ourselves to the last limit. challenge yourself but also treat yourself with love. okay?
The semester is almost over and now i have more time on my hands to read :”) which is great bcs i missed it, and its my favourite me time activity. How is everyone doing these days? <3

To all my gals on studybrl.
Remember this is not a race!
You can start late, you can fail, you can start all over again!
I doesn’t make you less of a person. We all fail, we all start somewhere, the important thing here is being patient with yourself and consistent and overall be happy with what you’re doing!
Don’t be afraid of learning and taking care of your mental health at the same time!!
Please y’all, take care and be proud of who you are today and everything y’all did today, keep on the good job guys.
Hey everyone, I'd like to know if you listen music when you study and if you do which music do you listen to? I'm currently writing an essay so if you could recommend something to me that would be great.
My music at the moment is a piano instrumental version of different song from old Barbie movies, that I just found by accident, so no worries I won't judge.
