STUDY SKILLS
Study Skills: listening, reading, Study Methods: Note-taking, mind-
comprehension, concentration, time mapping, summarising, electing
management, and organisation /highlighting important concepts
Ways in which note-taking serves as an effective study method to help in preparing for
examinations.
• Taking notes is a good way to remember important concepts that the teacher
has done in class.
• Taking notes helps when preparing for an exam because it also forces you to
listen more carefully in class.
• Taking your own notes allows you to put concepts in your own terms, making it
easier for you to understand them.
• Taking notes directly from what the teacher is teaching can help you narrow
down the vast amount of material to key concepts you’ll need to study later on.

Listening
• Listen with your ears, but also with your eyes as you watch the speaker/s and see
how they are talking.
• Make notes by writing only the keywords so that you are still able to listen
properly.
• Keep on asking yourself questions such as: what does this mean? Where
does this fit into what I already know?
• In your own words, repeat what the speaker has said to check if you have
understood.
Memory
• Make summaries and learn them by repeating them while you are walking,
standing in queues or bathing.
• Close your eyes and form a picture of what you are trying to remember.
• Set up your own test or mock exam and try to answer the questions.

LEARNING STYLES (SACAI JUN 2021)
A learning style is the way you remember information. Your specific learning style is
influenced by your personality, your interests and also your type of intelligence.
You've probably heard people say: "I'm a picture person." It's a learning style! Picture
people are visually driven learners, which is one of many learning styles. (Source:
