How can you improve your concentration while you are studying?

Studying is difficult for some people because they have trouble focusing on one task for a long period of time. There are ways, however, to eliminate distractions and allow for complete concentration on one's studies. Find an appropriate study environment. Generally, it is a good idea to eliminate distractions as much as possible while studying. Gather your study materials such as notes, textbooks and papers. If using a computer, exit out of email and messengers. Take breaks from subjects or short breaks from studying so you don't get bored. Find an effective study method. Some people use flash cards for memorization, but there are many other ways to study. Invent your own if none seem to work for you! Study well in advance. Instead of cramming everything into your head the night before the test, start studying a little bit earlier so you won't get overwhelmed. Always have a determined attitude. Do not let your own selfish/foolish acts get in the the way of your concentration,but have determination to finish what you have started.

Take a break from studying, do what you like doing to the full,
then I'm sure u will concentrate while studying.
I know you have many risks in classroom that annoy you
(e.g. your friend and the hard task from teacher,).
You have to avoid it and get away from it by going outside
that terrible class. count One two three! certainly , you will
pass this crisis.

Here are three suggestions for improving my study concentration:
- Study in a quiet place that is free from distractions and interruptions.
Try to create a space designated solely for studying.
- Make a study schedule that shows what tasks you need to accomplish
and when you plan to accomplish each task.
This will provide you with the structure you need for effective studying.
- Clear your mind of worrisome thoughts. Mental poise is important for concentration.
You can get distracted by your own thoughts.

What you can control in your studies:

"Here I study"
Get a dedicated space, chair, table, lighting and environment
Avoid your cellphone or telephone
Put up a sign to avoid being disturbed or interrupted
If you like music in the background, OK, but don't let it be a distraction.
(Research on productivity with music versus without music is inconclusive)
Stick to a routine, efficient study schedule
Accommodate your day/nighttime energy levels
See our Guide on Setting goals and making a scheduling
Focus
Before you begin studying, take a few minutes to summarize a few objectives, gather what you will need, and think of a general strategy of accomplishment
Incentives
Create an incentive if necessary for successfully completing a task,
such as calling a friend, a food treat, a walk, etc.
For special projects such as term papers, design projects, long book reviews, set up a special incentive
Change topics
Changing the subject you study every one to two hours for variety
Vary your study activities
Alternate reading with more active learning exercises
If you have a lot of reading, try the SQ3R method
Ask yourself how you could increase your activity level while studying? Perhaps a group will be best? Creating study questions?
Ask your teacher for alternative strategies for learning. The more active your learning, the better.
Take regular, scheduled breaks that fit you
Do something different from what you've been doing (e.g., walk around if you've been sitting), and in a different area

There are many ways to increase concentration while I am studying.
1. Gather your study materials such as notes, textbooks and papers.
If using a computer, exit out of email and messengers, especially, facebook.
2. Take breaks from subjects so you don't get bored. Switch between subjects but be careful not to mix them up.
3. Find an effective study method. Some people use flash cards for memorization, but there are many other ways to study. Invent your own if none seem to work for you!
4. Study well in advance. Instead of cramming everything into your head the night before the test, start studying a little bit earlier so you won't get overwhelmed.
