That makes a big difference when you study alone at night.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Small habits that help you learn<\/h4>\n\n<p>Set aside thirty minutes a day instead of one long weekend session. Write down one question after each lesson and send it to your lecturer. Review your notes before you start the next lesson. Short, regular effort builds real skill and keeps you going.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learning online works best when you know a few simple things before you start.
