The biggest disadvantage for me in Pomodoro technique is that instead of focusing on work for 25 minutes, my focus is more on checking time. Thank you so much Faye for telling Flowtime and Batching methods, you are always helpful ❤
Y'all I confess. 2021 was rather a tough year for me in terms of academics. First of all, I was obsessed with perfection, the aesthetics shown in study vlogs. Every time I sat down on chair to 'study', I actually didn't... I focused more on how I look like, how my study space looks like while I was studying. I became fan of stationaries and bunch of unnecessary stuff like that. Tik tok, youtube decieved me so hard into believing a whole new other truth of 'studying'. Now I'm better and I learned one fine lesson. Never believe so whole heartedly, sometimes reality is hidden. Faye has a huge part of me help me focusing rn, thanks to her and Happy New Year!
You don't need loads of stationary , an ipad, or a pretty handwriting/notes to be an A+ student , choose quality over quantity, focus on how much progress you accomplished instead of how aesthetic the session was. I hope you reach your goals and dreams and happy new year 💛🧡❤ edit: thanks guys for the lovely replies, I just wanted to update you that I'm now studying pharmacy, now I can persue my dream of medical research!!!!
Very true! Too many videos online unintentionally give off the message that you need expensive stationery and aesthetic study spaces to do well in school~ You just need a pencil, paper and the will to learn ❤️
hi! i got my grades today and i wanted to tell you that my grades improved SO much by following your videos. i went from 25% to 87% on physics and my lowest grade was 60% on math this term which isn't even that bad for someone who used to fail. i got an A on average and most of my grades were 80 something percent. so, i wanted to thank you for making studying less tiresome and more enjoyable. i can't thank you enough for all the hard work you put into helping others. you really saved my high school career and i don't know what i would have done this year without your amazing and helpful videos. please keep going and i hope you are always faced with success in your life
Aghhhh, I love how you actually communicate with your followers and solve their problems unlike other studytubers who repeat the same thing over and over again, your the only studytuber i watch and your videos are really good and your tips are actually effective I've implemented alot of them before and they motivate me to study tysm!!! ✨ ♥
I just everyone to have the best chance to succeed and get the results that they want ❤️ So happy that you find the study tips I explain on this channel helpful~
A little personal tip: I've been trying to go with the flowtime for awhile now, (primarily because I get overwhelmed and anxious quite easily so it's technique of doing a specific task has been pretty helpful). however, there's this one thing that I've always felt guilty about which is exceeding to complete a certain task than the time limit I appointed to it. Therefore, I always set a longer time than I know it would take me to complete a task (like gathering resources before writing the essay). Not only does it make me feel better about myself, but also gives me time to go through the task again and find out any fallacy, if pertaining.
That’s why tracking your ‘Work Length’ is so important! It gives you an idea of how long you need to complete each task so you can prepare in advance! I actually explained this when filming the video but it made the video too long, so i had to cut it out :((
I think the best study plan isn’t what others create but what you choose for yourself. You could try the most popular study techniques but none of them could work out, in which case you should make your own!
Me too! I go for about 45 minutes and then rest for 15. Long breaks only after I finish 4 _tasks._ I'm a completionist, so 25 minutes is way too short for me xD
A strategy that works really well for me is to not take genuine breaks- I know it sounds really unhealthy, but hear me out: I will start working, and if I take a break, I won't be motivated to get back to work. So, to replace my break, instead of going on my phone or something, I do something creative. This keeps my mind flowing while still giving it a break in a creative way. So, maybe I'll study for a bit, and then, when I start to lose motivation, I might just sketch a picture or make a bracelet! However, everyone studies differently! Hope this helps tho
This is one of videos that most students need because a lot of the study techniques that dont work for them. The pomodoro technique and the Cornell note taking method does not work for me at all. Thank you so much Faye, for explaining to us about the replacements for these popular techniques.

11:40 this is so much easier because flash cards could go missing and you might not notice. Also I recommend numbering and picking a random number to revise so you don't accidentally memorise based on where it is on the page(easy mistake w visual learners). I love the idea of flashcards because they're easy for questioning and you can shuffle them, but it's hard to keep track of all subjects
I just love how she puts all her efforts into finding effective study techniques for us and editing her videos in so much detail! Absolutely love your videos, Faye!
All of these methods NEVER worked for me (especially using mind maps as notes, and taking ANY notes) Thank you Faye for all these new tips that I will try my best to implement in my life!
Tbh mindmaps never worked for me too until i stopped using it as a note-taking method and started using it as a way to outline a topic~ thats why i mentioned it in the video hehe
Hey! I think a LOT of people have a misconception of what the Pomodoro technique actually is. Yes, in most youtube videos, people do tend to explain it as a 25-5 minute thing. But the timing isn't fixed. Everybody always forgets to tell you that. Pomodoro works very well for me because it is what you call "Flowtime here"- it ranges from 50 minutes to a couple of hours depending on the subject I'm doing. The fixed time that interrupts you is meant for only one thing, it is supposed to help you keep at your peak capacity. And 25 minutes is at the beginning, it doesn't have to remain that. Some people continue trying to push through even when they have low energy levels, I think it'll work out really well for them:) And during the breaks, ideally, you are not supposed to do anything that causes you to focus and think or distracts you because you are supposed to let your brain go into the diffused mode of thinking where it processes and stores all the stuff you have just studied. I do like what you said about mindmaps- I use a whiteboard to do something similar when I don't understand certain things. I do your mindmap thing before lab exams because there will be 5-10 experiments you need to know and sometimes, the information gets mixed up. Also, when you compare, you understand the thing SO much better! Anyhoo- good job!
Yeah. You can adjust it according to your liking /comfort. If you feel like you're loosing focus often then study for a shorter amount of time and if you feel like you're good at focusing then you can study for longer periods of time but personally the reason why I don't like this technique is because I keep thinking about the break instead of actually studying so I just try to complete an entire task and then take a break if I feel like it. If not, then I jump onto the next task.

I literally gave up on taking notes. I never thought I would, i treated my notes like the holy grail. I quit taking notes, but I still get the grades I want and I feel so much less stress bc notes for me were so utterly useless. I never read them again or studied them. I just kinda had them. Pretty things but useless. I realized I was wasting time, space, and effort on something that wasn't yielding any results so I ditched it and it's been working wonders for me!! I feel like I have time to do other things now and it makes me so happy.
Your I'm + statement is indeed amazing, I've become even more humble, talk less, more rational and most importantly I'm more patient with my goals now. I've completely changed my PERSONALITY NOW. Thank you. Now I'm in page 132 atomic habits started on October and haven't finished cuz I was busy. I want to meet you badly Faye to know you better because you share the same interests with me, book reader as well☺️
Ugh I love that! Changing ‘i want’ to ‘i am’ makes such a difference ❤️❤️ Also, I wouldn’t call myself a reader yet~ just started getting into the habit of reading hehe Lets finish Atomic Habits together! ❤️

Wahh I really need this because I just failed my trials and I feel bad about it for almost a week now 😭 Thank you and I hope you get straight A's in SPM too !! 🥺💖
I feel like fayefilms is an underrated channel cuz I think she needs 1 million XD All of the alternative tips that you recommended are working for me so much!! I watch a lot of study tip videos but all of them feel the same, this is like a breathe of fresh air in study tips! THANK YOUU
YES UR BACK! I start 9th grade this year and I've gone through lots of study tip channels but most of them share similar tips but I was really impressed how u broke down each tip into simpler words with examples plus some really unique study tips! You're like a big sister everyone wants TT ILYSM
Thanks love..🥺💕 Really looking for something like this..most of the famous study techniques don't work for me which makes me frustrated..i have tried your techniques before and it's kinda relief to watch most of them work for me..Thanks❤💕
Been following most of your study tips + how to be ahead of your assignments/work & peers, therefore I went from an average of 91% to 95%. Thank you Fayeeeeee~~~
The one with recording yourself explaining really works for like everything. Yesterday for the first time i wrote a philosophy essay. I got to choose from 4 topics and I selected the one that I feel most connected with. So i started writing, had to place in order a few paragraphs. Today I recorded myself reading it and while I was reading it I changed some things. When I had to rewrite it it came out perfect. When my results come in I'll maybe update. It's for a competition
Hii Faye! we really appreciate you making all these helpful study videos for us. Can give some advice/insight on how to balance studies, UA-cam channel, and personal life? Ty always :)
I will add that to my list of video suggestions! In the meantime, you can check out my video titled ‘how to be more disciplined’ as I give tips there on how to prioritize other commitments first before studying~
@swathiHi there!!I have a small channel where I make Vlogs that you will enjoy.If u have a time,please do check it out!And we're so close to 230 subs!Thank you🥺❤️
I just realized I always do flow time! I usually get all A’s and my friends keep asking me how I study. But I have to explain to them that everyone focuses in different ways
thx fayefilms because of you I am able to pass my exams and grades with flying colors, thx to your new methods, studying became fun. You're my savior, no matter what I'm always going to support you.
another alternative that i used instead of the pomodoro method is studying for a certain amount of time and then taking a break for 1/5 of the amount of time studied :)
Was studying so I took a break and you posted right when I started my break. Thank you for motivating me and your tips are really helpful 💖 Happy New Year!
6:36 - WHAT TO DO IF MAKING NOTES doesn’t work for you was my favorite part as notes never worked for me. But this method is truly a life changer for me. thanks a lot for this tip.😇😇❤
One helpful tip for people who struggle with working with the 25/5 pomodoro method… like I did, is to make the working duration longer. There is 45/15 and my favorite 50/10 pomodoros. I cannot work in short intervals so I love 50/10. Also to help me stay off my phone, I watch real time study with me and the people in the video are working with the the pomodoro method I desire. It’s a great way (I believe) to stay motivated and a great way to not touch your phone as it’s already preoccupied. Hope this helps someone :)
I was about to read and saw your new video notification pop up ,and wow! The blurting out method just made memorizing contents 10x easier ! I mean it. Thank you bestie~~
Thank you so much for all your wonderful content. I started to make myself a better student this school year and I'm very happy to say that I became one because of you. My grades are high and I'm very proud of myself. And when my motivation fluctuates I always comeback to your vids to gain it again. Thank you so much!! 😊💜
this channel is one of the few study youtube channels I still watch. I love how she's honest, not focusing on which pen brand you should have or which apps are better for your ipad, but actually giving us great advice! thank you for helping us
- i hang out wf family and it was a whale of time to enjoy fireworks ! how i wish Faye always by my side whenever i study. Anyway, thank u for the superb content for the first of 2022.♥️
I have watched nearly every productivity channel, binging them over the past year and I am so impressed to see how many good concepts you got into a smal video without rambling on. Thank you!!
Thank you so much Faye after watching this video I have come to realise what my problems were with each study method. I’m glad that you give all of us tips who struggle to study and I love how in depth you tell us. Thank you so much for your hard work.
this video explains everything so well! i love how you show all the examples and everything is easy to understand. i also like how you're not disproving any of the other methods, but providing alternative options and saying what methods worked for you and for what purpose during studying. love this!
You are always giving for all the problems I am struggling with!! The pomodoro technique didn't work on me too so I was stressed and struggling..your video helped me alot and I am sure that they will work cuz your tips are the only tips that work on me...Thank you so much faye for thr techniques and tips...finally HAPPY NEW YEAR FAYE,HER FAMILY AND LITTLE MIKY!! 💜😍🌟🦄
@@Fayefilms Sure, Batching is my favorite method I learned from this video and I was super suprised how I complete my every task within the day. And also the mind map method was awesome and I used it for maths and science to understand the flow of the concepts. And writing down all the points I remember in a topic helped me to catch up the weak points in me and I worked hard on those topics. Even my best friend said that this method is amazing. Cornell note taking method was awesome too I tried it for my last exam and I had good results but this time I tried the method of writing the points I remember and focus more on the places I can't remember and the results were really good than the last time..and I also want to say the concept studying method you mentioned in the "how to make studying less boring" really helped me to study the concepts in science and math and I never forgot them when I look at that certain thing. And pdf element helped me to create my text book notes in the way I want. And my fav video of you is how to stop daydreaming and from the day I wathed that I never got distracted while studying. ( I pssted sticky notes with a cross everywhere hehe and I kept only the essential things with me so I won't get distracted) Your tips helped me to stay away from my biggest distraction "PHONE" thank you so much for all these tips and I won't never ever forget your tips. Thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much...
Faye I tried your study technique batching and flowtime and it perfectly worked for me and I am a 13 year old student and you inspired me a lot to study and be productive and enjoy the process of achieving our goal. Thank you
I am so happy that I found your channel! I have been struggling with my classes and I really wanted to know what I was doing wrong. After watching a few of your videos I noticed that most of the tips shared were actually helping me in my classes. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your studying strategies and the tips and tricks on how to do well in our learning. You're a legend!
I love you and your videos, Faye. I just have one note: gathering many hours of social media and gaming as one batch makes the person tired and overstimulated. I think when it comes to so much draining screen-time, it is better to distribute across the day and multitask.
I think it works differently for everyone~ I find that being productive then resting all at one go works better, because if I multitask, I’ll end up wasting a lot more time on my phone. Eg, a 10 min break becomes 1 hour. I think multitasking only works if you’re incredibly disciplined~
Hey Faye!!!!.....I really like your videos not only because your study techniques work for me.. but also the how much efforts you put in it👏👏....thank you for that❤️🌼...and a very happy new year...
You are very articulated. It's such a relief for us not just to know the problems but you gave us alternative ways on how to solve it. Love lots from your subscriber from the Philippines.🇵🇭
I think I’m a combination of all of these when it comes to studying; depends on which subject! For example, I used to be weak in Chemistry so when I studied it, I would read the points aloud while pacing around my room (Went from B to A in just three weeks of doing this!). For subjects heavy on memorisation (History and Biology), I would draw flow charts and visualise.
Faye! How can I thank you ....you are my bestie that that you got me back when I feel unmotivated or procastinating😭😭😭😭😭 . thank you soooooo much 🥰🥰 don't stop making videos like this please 🥺.once again thank you so so much 👍👍👍👍👍
alternatives to pomodoro: - flowtime (one task one time) - batching (simple tasks at a time) other ways to take notes that could be more simple and effective: - read a topic > write down/record an audio of everything you can absorb from it > read what you wrote while giving marks at the certain ideas you haven't explained it well - sum up a topic in just one sheet of paper > create boxes on the sheet, fill 1 box for 1 page. it forces you to focus only on important ideas (my personal notes below) i'm a mind map lover and now i understand why it's not really a note-taking method! because i never create a mind map when i haven't read the topic, while note-taking methods are supposed to help us to take notes while studying new materials. when it comes to me, my mind map is created after re-reading a whole topic, to have an in-depth understanding of the concept. i've just realized it now :)
So many popular study mathod doesn't work for me! Felt so frustrated until I see this video! I will 100% subscribe and watch more on this channel. Thanks!
Thank you so much, this video did not only give me a boos of motivation, but made me realize that i should not feel guilty for not being able to study with 'popular study methods' and you gave great tips, may god bless you haha
Personally im a very very detailed note taker as in my test answers are incredibly detailed however the cornel notes style isnt large enough and it’s annoying since these note taking methods are to small for my notes but your alternate forms of note taking pages have really improved the organisation of my notes. Thank you so much for all your videos as they have incredibly boosted my grades and all my study “secrets” are things you suggested to do soo thank you so much!
I use outlining for my notes Because i hate seeing large amount of text if i want to review everything again Couple of sentences into bullet points and it actually works to understand conpects quickly
these tips were actually very helpful and i can’t wait to see which works for me. i feel like blurting is a great way for me to actually see what i retain from studying ! thank you again
Flashcards never work for me but the alternative you shared seems quite better I will try it and the mindmaping out and let you know! Thanks for your efforts Faye ❤ Edit: I forgot to say that the Pomodoro technique is not bound to 25/5 (as most youtubers would say) You can adjust the time according to preference. I like to do 40/15 or set bigger timers when doing larger tasks. What I mean is the typical 25/5 is a mymisconception. You can just set the time that would take you for completing a project or task, it also works as the flowtime technique.
Hi Faye, happy new year I hope your 2022 is going good 😊 Thank you for posting out videos and helping us out ❤️😩u are so precious 💘💕 I have a suggestion if u don't mind... 1) study routines to apply on school days 2)how to focus on 2022's resulotions
thank you soooo much😭 I tried out all your methods tips for my upcoming finals, they are so helpful! I'm easily striking everything and also have enough inspiration to do my assignments and comprehense my works!
This is the first video I've ever watched from you and the first time I didn't skip the ads because these tips were really helpful. I'll be writing my final exams very soon and I keep flopping in my tests and mock exams and I think it's because of the way I study. I'm going to try these out and see what works best. Thank you so much!
Just found your channel, loved this video so much that I liked and subscribed only 4 minutes into the video. You're so helpful and patient while explaining! I've done Flowtime and Batching my entire life (without even knowing there are names to these techniques), but people talk so much about Pomodoro that I felt like I should change this to make things better. Your video made me realize that actually I need to change other points in my studying that are lacking, and both Flowtime and Batching work wonders for me! What I find most entertaining about this is that Pomodoro comes from scientific studies about the topic. But while there is some background to it, IMO, it doesn't mean it should be THAT strict. What I see the most are people rushing their studies or trying to digest a lot in such a short time period, so they can study as most as they can in those 25 minutes. And also people who are more focused on watching their clocks than actually trying to learn. It becomes a burden, you can't focus correctly, you don't actually absorb any of it. I mean, if that works for you, in my opinion, that's completely fine and you should keep doing that! But whenever that becomes a burden, it's a pretty great sign that it's affecting you negatively. I'll make sure to check out everything about your channel, because I really loved your tips and they made me realize a lot of things! Thank you so so much. I hope this year brings lots and lots of joy to your life!
That’s one of the reasons why I don’t really care for or focus on the ‘scientific’ parts of study tips. If it works, it works! If it doesn’t, it’s time to modify it~ Also, welcome to the fayefilms family ❤️🥳
This was so helpful, thank you!! I feel like school only teaches you to make flashcards or just to write everything down and call it 'notes'. My issue is that once I'm finally motivated to study, after doing so, I will take a break but it ends up being too long and then I've lost my motivation to study again. I think flowtime will be really helpful to me, so thank you again :))
hi! i found this video while cramming half of a semester's worth of requirements (do not ask me why) and i reallly found it helpful i finished what was 5 weeks of lessons in two days... ever since i found out about the batching method i really realllly got a hold of my study time and am much more productive now than how i was two weeks ago. i get a lot of work done in the morning and that leaves my evenings free. i used to rest in the evenings with guilt but now it really feels so liberating and very relaxing because i know i've done a lot of things in advance and need not worry about tasks i "might have missed" of course, other people may find these positive results with the pomodoro method/other methods as well, but i guess it really is about finding what technique suits you and your personality best. thank you so much for this !!!
I disliked mind maps because to me, it all looked like a jumbled mess. Thanks for sharing another way to look at it! Other popular study methods I tweaked/use: - The Pomodoro method, but 45mins and 15 min break. It's one hour overall and usually gives me enough time to complete my work. Plus, I really do need those eye breaks x) - Flashcards, but only online since I don't want to waste materials. It works for me since I like to test my understanding by answering questions and going on imaginary lectures. Remember you can always tweak study methods! No one is going to jail you for doing so pfft.
you make the best advice tbh . I would get stuck in which asmr or music should i listen while I am studying and in 2021 my grades keep falling down. this is the best advice video ever
HI Faye!! I just wanna say thank you so much for the effort you put into your videos. You helped me so much as my studies really improved ever since I started watching your videos last year. Wishing you the best for 2022!!
There were a few times in this video where I kid you not, I literally paused and stared at the screen for a moment and whispered "I love you faye" and then excitedly tried out the new studying methods Thankyouu faye
YOOOO I just now came from outside and I got a new video to watch! For me, pomodoro doesn’t really work since the time to study seems too short and the break also doesn’t feel like a true break for me. I will try to implement these methods in my life! I also use a mixture of outline method and mindmap for my notes. I usually write in outline method for explaination, underlining the key words and I do mindmaps for connecting the topics to the main chapter. Loved this video!
There should be a certain type of learner you gravitate more towards. Start from there, try out s few study tips, then see what works for you! So for example, you’re more of a visual learner. So you try a few study tips for visual learners first, then move on to audio and kinesthetic~
This video was very much needed, when I searched up studying and notetaking techniques all there was only pomodoro and cornell but those don't work for me, thank you Faye for these replacements. After you mentioned batching in one of ur vids, I tried it and it worked. I finished so many assignments in 3 hours, again thank you so much for these vids.
I just realised I've been using the flowtime technique my whole life & guess what!? It works! When I was first introduced to the Pomodoro technique I decided to try and my experience, my experience was like...meh, I was very frustrated to take a 'break' without completing a task (I find it very distracting) so I decided to stick with my old ways. Anyways, wishing y'all the best in your journey, you can experiment with different study techniques but if something doesn't work for you then stick to what used to work for you without dwelling on it too much Love ya🤗

thank you so so much for this! I was so tired of hearing these old techniques...I wanted to hear something new....thanks!❤ I haven't subscribed to you but I am subscribing you now!
During class, this is how I take notes. This works so damn well for me. I've noticed that I rarely look at the notes. So what I do is I don't care too much about handwriting. I listen, understand, and write my notes in my language in the outline method. But I do keep some space as you do in the Cornell method. After college, in that space, I summarize what's on that page. Works great for me.

I litrally agree... but im also a fan of a studytuber @be creative and artistic
A little personal tip:
I've been trying to go with the flowtime for awhile now, (primarily because I get overwhelmed and anxious quite easily so it's technique of doing a specific task has been pretty helpful). however, there's this one thing that I've always felt guilty about which is exceeding to complete a certain task than the time limit I appointed to it. Therefore, I always set a longer time than I know it would take me to complete a task (like gathering resources before writing the essay). Not only does it make me feel better about myself, but also gives me time to go through the task again and find out any fallacy, if pertaining.
That’s why tracking your ‘Work Length’ is so important! It gives you an idea of how long you need to complete each task so you can prepare in advance! I actually explained this when filming the video but it made the video too long, so i had to cut it out :((

I think the best study plan isn’t what others create but what you choose for yourself. You could try the most popular study techniques but none of them could work out, in which case you should make your own!
That’s very true! Keeping finding what works for you ❤️

For managing my time, I use a sort of “long pomodoro” where I work for 50 minutes and rest for 10, and it works well for me :)
How to be a straight A student in highschool/ tips and tricks
ua-cam.com/video/GRC4hShYG10/v-deo.html
I like 50 - it's the sweet spot for stuff like maths. 90's good for a deep sesh, like an assignment Q or two.
Me too! I go for about 45 minutes and then rest for 15. Long breaks only after I finish 4 _tasks._ I'm a completionist, so 25 minutes is way too short for me xD
A strategy that works really well for me is to not take genuine breaks- I know it sounds really unhealthy, but hear me out: I will start working, and if I take a break, I won't be motivated to get back to work. So, to replace my break, instead of going on my phone or something, I do something creative. This keeps my mind flowing while still giving it a break in a creative way. So, maybe I'll study for a bit, and then, when I start to lose motivation, I might just sketch a picture or make a bracelet! However, everyone studies differently! Hope this helps tho
This is really good!
Yes I do that too!!
This is one of videos that most students need because a lot of the study techniques that dont work for them. The pomodoro technique and the Cornell note taking method does not work for me at all. Thank you so much Faye, for explaining to us about the replacements for these popular techniques.
@LoFi Gi Just subscribed ! :D
I also face the same problem, where a lot of the popular study techniques just don’t work for me. So i hope this video addresses this issue well ❤️❤️

11:40 this is so much easier because flash cards could go missing and you might not notice. Also I recommend numbering and picking a random number to revise so you don't accidentally memorise based on where it is on the page(easy mistake w visual learners). I love the idea of flashcards because they're easy for questioning and you can shuffle them, but it's hard to keep track of all subjects
WAIT. HOLD ON-

All of these methods NEVER worked for me (especially using mind maps as notes, and taking ANY notes)
Thank you Faye for all these new tips that I will try my best to implement in my life!
Tbh mindmaps never worked for me too until i stopped using it as a note-taking method and started using it as a way to outline a topic~ thats why i mentioned it in the video hehe

Hey! I think a LOT of people have a misconception of what the Pomodoro technique actually is. Yes, in most youtube videos, people do tend to explain it as a 25-5 minute thing. But the timing isn't fixed. Everybody always forgets to tell you that. Pomodoro works very well for me because it is what you call "Flowtime here"- it ranges from 50 minutes to a couple of hours depending on the subject I'm doing. The fixed time that interrupts you is meant for only one thing, it is supposed to help you keep at your peak capacity. And 25 minutes is at the beginning, it doesn't have to remain that. Some people continue trying to push through even when they have low energy levels, I think it'll work out really well for them:)
And during the breaks, ideally, you are not supposed to do anything that causes you to focus and think or distracts you because you are supposed to let your brain go into the diffused mode of thinking where it processes and stores all the stuff you have just studied.
I do like what you said about mindmaps- I use a whiteboard to do something similar when I don't understand certain things. I do your mindmap thing before lab exams because there will be 5-10 experiments you need to know and sometimes, the information gets mixed up. Also, when you compare, you understand the thing SO much better!
Anyhoo- good job!
You wrote what's on my mind
@@musiclearner6799 😄
Yeah. You can adjust it according to your liking /comfort. If you feel like you're loosing focus often then study for a shorter amount of time and if you feel like you're good at focusing then you can study for longer periods of time but personally the reason why I don't like this technique is because I keep thinking about the break instead of actually studying so I just try to complete an entire task and then take a break if I feel like it. If not, then I jump onto the next task.

I literally gave up on taking notes. I never thought I would, i treated my notes like the holy grail. I quit taking notes, but I still get the grades I want and I feel so much less stress bc notes for me were so utterly useless. I never read them again or studied them. I just kinda had them. Pretty things but useless. I realized I was wasting time, space, and effort on something that wasn't yielding any results so I ditched it and it's been working wonders for me!! I feel like I have time to do other things now and it makes me so happy.
Literally so happy for you ❤️
the fact that I used the flowtime technique since childhood but never realized yet

@LoFi Gi I will surely try it . Thank you 😊
The one with recording yourself explaining really works for like everything.
Yesterday for the first time i wrote a philosophy essay. I got to choose from 4 topics and I selected the one that I feel most connected with. So i started writing, had to place in order a few paragraphs. Today I recorded myself reading it and while I was reading it I changed some things. When I had to rewrite it it came out perfect.
When my results come in I'll maybe update. It's for a competition

6:36 - WHAT TO DO IF MAKING NOTES doesn’t work for you
was my favorite part as notes never worked for me. But this method is truly a life changer for me.
thanks a lot for this tip.😇😇❤
One helpful tip for people who struggle with working with the 25/5 pomodoro method… like I did, is to make the working duration longer. There is 45/15 and my favorite 50/10 pomodoros. I cannot work in short intervals so I love 50/10. Also to help me stay off my phone, I watch real time study with me and the people in the video are working with the the pomodoro method I desire. It’s a great way (I believe) to stay motivated and a great way to not touch your phone as it’s already preoccupied. Hope this helps someone :)

@@Fayefilms Sure, Batching is my favorite method I learned from this video and I was super suprised how I complete my every task within the day. And also the mind map method was awesome and I used it for maths and science to understand the flow of the concepts. And writing down all the points I remember in a topic helped me to catch up the weak points in me and I worked hard on those topics. Even my best friend said that this method is amazing. Cornell note taking method was awesome too I tried it for my last exam and I had good results but this time I tried the method of writing the points I remember and focus more on the places I can't remember and the results were really good than the last time..and I also want to say the concept studying method you mentioned in the "how to make studying less boring" really helped me to study the concepts in science and math and I never forgot them when I look at that certain thing. And pdf element helped me to create my text book notes in the way I want. And my fav video of you is how to stop daydreaming and from the day I wathed that I never got distracted while studying. ( I pssted sticky notes with a cross everywhere hehe and I kept only the essential things with me so I won't get distracted) Your tips helped me to stay away from my biggest distraction "PHONE" thank you so much for all these tips and I won't never ever forget your tips.

After watching a few of your videos I noticed that most of the tips shared were actually helping me in my classes. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your studying strategies and the tips and tricks on how to do well in our learning. You're a legend!
I love you and your videos, Faye. I just have one note: gathering many hours of social media and gaming as one batch makes the person tired and overstimulated. I think when it comes to so much draining screen-time, it is better to distribute across the day and multitask.
I think it works differently for everyone~ I find that being productive then resting all at one go works better, because if I multitask, I’ll end up wasting a lot more time on my phone. Eg, a 10 min break becomes 1 hour.
I think multitasking only works if you’re incredibly disciplined~

I think I’m a combination of all of these when it comes to studying; depends on which subject! For example, I used to be weak in Chemistry so when I studied it, I would read the points aloud while pacing around my room (Went from B to A in just three weeks of doing this!). For subjects heavy on memorisation (History and Biology), I would draw flow charts and visualise.

alternatives to pomodoro:
- flowtime (one task one time)
- batching (simple tasks at a time)
other ways to take notes that could be more simple and effective:
- read a topic > write down/record an audio of everything you can absorb from it > read what you wrote while giving marks at the certain ideas you haven't explained it well
- sum up a topic in just one sheet of paper > create boxes on the sheet, fill 1 box for 1 page. it forces you to focus only on important ideas
(my personal notes below)
i'm a mind map lover and now i understand why it's not really a note-taking method! because i never create a mind map when i haven't read the topic, while note-taking methods are supposed to help us to take notes while studying new materials. when it comes to me, my mind map is created after re-reading a whole topic, to have an in-depth understanding of the concept. i've just realized it now :)
So many popular study mathod doesn't work for me! Felt so frustrated until I see this video! I will 100% subscribe and watch more on this channel. Thanks!
I've been using these techniques ever since and it really works for me. Thank you for the tip! ❤️

Flashcards never work for me but the alternative you shared seems quite better I will try it and the mindmaping out and let you know! Thanks for your efforts Faye ❤
Edit: I forgot to say that the Pomodoro technique is not bound to 25/5 (as most youtubers would say) You can adjust the time according to preference. I like to do 40/15 or set bigger timers when doing larger tasks. What I mean is the typical 25/5 is a mymisconception. You can just set the time that would take you for completing a project or task, it also works as the flowtime technique.
Omg it work today i used your technique and i got 100% on my test! Ily sm❤

Love from India😊😊
Just found your channel, loved this video so much that I liked and subscribed only 4 minutes into the video. You're so helpful and patient while explaining! I've done Flowtime and Batching my entire life (without even knowing there are names to these techniques), but people talk so much about Pomodoro that I felt like I should change this to make things better. Your video made me realize that actually I need to change other points in my studying that are lacking, and both Flowtime and Batching work wonders for me!
What I find most entertaining about this is that Pomodoro comes from scientific studies about the topic. But while there is some background to it, IMO, it doesn't mean it should be THAT strict. What I see the most are people rushing their studies or trying to digest a lot in such a short time period, so they can study as most as they can in those 25 minutes. And also people who are more focused on watching their clocks than actually trying to learn. It becomes a burden, you can't focus correctly, you don't actually absorb any of it. I mean, if that works for you, in my opinion, that's completely fine and you should keep doing that! But whenever that becomes a burden, it's a pretty great sign that it's affecting you negatively.
I'll make sure to check out everything about your channel, because I really loved your tips and they made me realize a lot of things! Thank you so so much. I hope this year brings lots and lots of joy to your life!
That’s one of the reasons why I don’t really care for or focus on the ‘scientific’ parts of study tips. If it works, it works! If it doesn’t, it’s time to modify it~
Also, welcome to the fayefilms family ❤️🥳
@@Fayefilms You're as sweet as a person could possibly be! Thank you for always helping as many people as you can!
Honestly, this channel really helps me to be more productive and motivation for me to study and knowing how to manage myself well, :)
This was so helpful, thank you!! I feel like school only teaches you to make flashcards or just to write everything down and call it 'notes'. My issue is that once I'm finally motivated to study, after doing so, I will take a break but it ends up being too long and then I've lost my motivation to study again. I think flowtime will be really helpful to me, so thank you again :))
School tells you to study but doesn’t teach you HOW to study~
hi! i found this video while cramming half of a semester's worth of requirements (do not ask me why) and i reallly found it helpful i finished what was 5 weeks of lessons in two days... ever since i found out about the batching method i really realllly got a hold of my study time and am much more productive now than how i was two weeks ago. i get a lot of work done in the morning and that leaves my evenings free. i used to rest in the evenings with guilt but now it really feels so liberating and very relaxing because i know i've done a lot of things in advance and need not worry about tasks i "might have missed"
of course, other people may find these positive results with the pomodoro method/other methods as well, but i guess it really is about finding what technique suits you and your personality best. thank you so much for this !!!
I disliked mind maps because to me, it all looked like a jumbled mess. Thanks for sharing another way to look at it!
Other popular study methods I tweaked/use:
- The Pomodoro method, but 45mins and 15 min break. It's one hour overall and usually gives me enough time to complete my work. Plus, I really do need those eye breaks x)
- Flashcards, but only online since I don't want to waste materials. It works for me since I like to test my understanding by answering questions and going on imaginary lectures.
Remember you can always tweak study methods! No one is going to jail you for doing so pfft.
you make the best advice tbh . I would get stuck in which asmr or music should i listen while I am studying and in 2021 my grades keep falling down. this is the best advice video ever
HI Faye!! I just wanna say thank you so much for the effort you put into your videos. You helped me so much as my studies really improved ever since I started watching your videos last year. Wishing you the best for 2022!!

YOOOO I just now came from outside and I got a new video to watch! For me, pomodoro doesn’t really work since the time to study seems too short and the break also doesn’t feel like a true break for me. I will try to implement these methods in my life! I also use a mixture of outline method and mindmap for my notes. I usually write in outline method for explaination, underlining the key words and I do mindmaps for connecting the topics to the main chapter. Loved this video!
FIRST!! Faye i wanna thank you so much cuz im finally proud of myself

There should be a certain type of learner you gravitate more towards. Start from there, try out s few study tips, then see what works for you!
So for example, you’re more of a visual learner. So you try a few study tips for visual learners first, then move on to audio and kinesthetic~
@@Fayefilms will do! Thanks~
This video was very much needed, when I searched up studying and notetaking techniques all there was only pomodoro and cornell but those don't work for me, thank you Faye for these replacements. After you mentioned batching in one of ur vids, I tried it and it worked. I finished so many assignments in 3 hours, again thank you so much for these vids.
@LoFi Gi thx, will do

Dont ever stop filming videos😭😭 love you so much
I just realised I've been using the flowtime technique my whole life & guess what!? It works! When I was first introduced to the Pomodoro technique I decided to try and my experience, my experience was like...meh, I was very frustrated to take a 'break' without completing a task (I find it very distracting) so I decided to stick with my old ways.
Anyways, wishing y'all the best in your journey, you can experiment with different study techniques but if something doesn't work for you then stick to what used to work for you without dwelling on it too much
Love ya🤗

During class, this is how I take notes. This works so damn well for me. I've noticed that I rarely look at the notes. So what I do is I don't care too much about handwriting. I listen, understand, and write my notes in my language in the outline method. But I do keep some space as you do in the Cornell method. After college, in that space, I summarize what's on that page. Works great for me.
You sound so organised! Love that
