Developing habits that help you be productive is essential for effective learning. First of all, it is important to identify the causes of learning difficulties and to address them by eliminating bad habits. Otherwise it is much more difficult to develop interest, curiosity and a desire to learn. There are also exercises to help you retain and develop your attention, but vocabulary development, speaking technique, text comprehension and memory improvement are also an integral part of the learning methodology.

Beyond overcoming distractions, comfort is also important. Get regular ventilation, take breaks, eat and drink while you study and get some exercise. Take it easy and keep your workload to a minimum, preferably one thing at a time.
