And, if possible, gently go over things before they are covered in class so if you have questions, you can ask them then. This way, if you’ve forgotten a test or your time management slipped & you didn’t have time to study, the results are not catastrophic.

So. Many. Timer. And alarms. And figure out a way to keep track of due dates that works for your kid (mine uses the calendar on his phone with various reminders)

Body doubling for study time.

These are accurate, pretty much map to what we are doing now.

I am deeply concerned about body double. Once they are in college, that won’t be there. We seriously don’t know how she would do without that.

In my experience it was much easier to find a body double in college than at any other time in life. Literally hundreds of peers around who also need to study. The key is tapping into a group that will help you stay focused and not totally distract. I actually had my best in-room studying the year I had a random roommate who I was friendly with but not besties. We were good at studying without too much extra chit chat.

I'll also recommend The Pomodoro Method. And make sure the breaks are off-line for a better recharge. Digital distractions after one of my biggest worries
