Your videos are for students, but, as a teacher, I always find good tips for me to teach them! Thank you! I just hope you'll see this comment among the 600 ! :)
The problem with rewarding myself is that my mind becomes set on 'getting through' the material rather than actually mastering it.
Kids with ADHD isnt going to motivate them thru rewards
oh, he has a girlfriend :(
Studying may be boring sometimes but when you are matured enough to understand you are doing it for a better future, it never gets that boring.
Am I the only one who loves the Llama with glasses with that specific sound!? 😅☺️
Peter Parker wrote a history book? Lol

1-Build an interest link
"I'll use my girlfriend Anna as an example."
"Or study with a cat" whenever I try to study with my cat she just bites my pen and lies on my papers lol
1. Gaining interest
Thomas is really doing a great work for all procrastinators!
The fact that you're holding a fidget spinner makes me want to puke.
Do you have an idea to make Math interesting?
Not so much a tip to make studying fun, but to help you become more emotionally attached to a subject - when you're studying, if you read/work on something that piques your interest and makes you curious, write it down on a separate piece of paper. Then, once you're done studying, research stuff that's on that piece of paper. You're not studying, but you are learning a bit more about it, and tricking yourself into thinking you're just googling cool stuff. But overall it maintains interest in the topic over a long period, and it's extra stuff you can bring to the next discussion of "I found out this!"
For example, do your homework alone. Your partner does it alone too.
Thanks for all your tips Thomas!! Your dedication to college student success is so awesome man, love you :)
