Taking breaks during study sessions from "summary" of THE DUOLINGO ENGLISH TEST (TARGET 125+) by ASHOK KUMAR
When preparing for the Duolingo English Test, it is essential to understand the importance of taking breaks during study sessions. While it may seem counterintuitive to step away from your studies, research has shown that regular breaks can actually improve focus and retention. By taking short breaks every 25-30 minutes, you give your brain a chance to rest and recharge. This can help prevent burnout and keep you feeling fresh and alert throughout your study session. Additionally, breaks can help you maintain motivation and prevent boredom, making it easier to stay engaged with your materials. During your break, it is important to engage in activities that are both relaxing and stimulating. This could include taking a short walk, doing some light stretching, or listening to music. Avoid activities that are too mentally taxing, such as checking your email or scrolling through social media, as these can actually detract from your focus. Incorporating breaks into your study routine can also help you better retain information. When you take breaks, your brain has a chance to process and consolidate the information you have just learned. This can improve your long-term memory and make it easier to recall information when you need it.- Incorporating regular breaks into your study sessions can help you study more effectively and efficiently. By allowing yourself time to rest and recharge, you can improve your focus, retention, and overall performance on the Duolingo English Test.
