Help Me Do My Homework: 11 Effective Guidelines


The following are guidelines on how to make homework easy and fun.

  1. Take notes
  2. Most of the homework you get comes from the syllabus you follow at school; therefore, you need to write down notes in class so that when you are awarded with homework you can easily derive the answers. This will definitely save you a lot of time when searching for the answers.

  3. Make a list
  4. Of course the work won’t be from the same subject all together: therefore you need to list down all the different assignments and also by when they should be done. This method will help you prioritize your work according to urgency and bulk and eventually make it easier to avoid unnecessary punishments.

  5. Observe time
  6. One the major factors about homework is the careful use of time. You need to carve out your timetable carefully and make sure not to waste any minute as this will set you back and might even mean you end up putting in more hours than you had earlier intended.

  7. Organization
  8. Before you get down to your work, make sure you have all the necessary tools within your reach and in a very organized manner. This will help you avoid any mix ups during the work and also will help you move quickly as you complete the assignments.

  9. Clarity
  10. In the course of your work you need to determine whether you understand the assignment. In case you have no clear idea what should be done, then you need to inquire from all the relevant sources such as friends, teachers and parents.

  11. Bookmarking
  12. When go through your notes looking for answers and you come across sections that will be helpful in some other questions, then you need to carefully mark the place so that when you need the information it’s easier to make up the answers. This is only possible if you have gone through the questions: therefore, you need to skim through the assignment first before you begin.

  13. Fore-ward completion
  14. If there is work you can do at school before you go home, then do it first before you leave.

  15. Join groups
  16. You need to join study groups that will help you with the work that you have been given. Make groups with people who can supplement your weak areas.

  17. Study thoroughly
  18. You already know that the work will be from your notes, then you can study ahead so that when the work comes, you can derive the answers from your mind instead of looking for them in the books.

  19. Incentives
  20. Award yourself from time to time or even set a prize for yourself so that you encourage yourself to finish earlier.

  21. Avoid distraction
  22. Get yourself in an isolated place so that your attention is not divided at all. This will most likely help you finish your work early and do it effectively.
