5 Tips For Studying at Home

5 simple ways to study more effectively at home.

1. Create a dedicated study space

It can be in your bedroom. if you can use another room then brilliant. Just ensure you have some good lighting, minimal distractions and some space to spread out your notes/papers.

2. Study in short focused blocks

Try 25–45 minute sessions, followed by short breaks. Accountancy studies require concentration, and shorter sessions improve retention.

3. Practice questions over reading

Spend more time doing past questions, calculations, and mock exams than passively reading textbooks. These exams are very technique-based, not knowledge alone.

4. Plan your study carefully

Work backwards from the exam/s and plan your study by topics. Have a monthly, weekly and daily planner. Planning is everything! include break days!

5. Look after your ENERGY not just your time

Becoming qualified is a marathon not a sprint. Get enough sleep, move your body, and take real breaks. Tired studying feels productive but is far less effective.
