Good study habits look after the whole student, not only the marks. Sleep, food and rest matter just as much as reading and assignments.
Many of our students work, care for family and study in the same week. That is hard, so we encourage a realistic timetable with breaks built in.
It always seems impossible until it is done. Nelson MandelaOur Workplace Wellness and Fitness Basics short course, taught by Nomvula Zulu, shares simple habits to help you stay healthy and focused while you study and work.
Look after your energy
Drink water, eat a proper meal before you study and take a ten minute walk between sessions. Tired minds forget quickly, so rest is part of your study plan.
Ask for support early
If life gets heavy, talk to Student Support on 082 555 0334 on WhatsApp. We can often agree on a new deadline or a lighter plan before you fall behind.
