How to Have a Successful Study Session with Friends

School is Easy Tutoring December 21, 2021

Having study sessions might help you in more ways than one. It not only gets you out of your routine of studying by yourself, and gaining new experiences, but it also helps you build relationships with your friends. Here are a few tips for a successful study session with friends.

How to Have a Successful Study Session with Friends

Studying alone can be fun sometimes. You get in the zone and vibe out to the music as you slowly understand your material. It can bring about a blissful and fulfilling feeling. However, sometimes it can also get kind of lonely.

Having study sessions might help you in more ways than one. It not only gets you out of your routine of studying by yourself, and gain new experiences, but it also helps you build relationships with your friends.

In fact, some might argue that studying in groups is much more effective than studying alone. If you don’t believe me, try some of these tips to have a successful study session with your friends.

1. Don’t Be Afraid to Have a Little Banter

When you’re studying with friends, most of the time, you’ll end up having too much fun. This is great if you are using the fun as a learning tool. For example, if you are studying for that upcoming history exam, and you’re finding it hard to remember some things, you could compare a certain character to your friend. Maybe you remember Napoleon Bonaparte was really short just because he reminded me of one of your study buddies!

Making jokes and poking fun at each other is actually a great way to study and internalize your material.

2. Take a Break Every Now and Then

It is scientifically proven that taking small breaks in between study sessions actually improves your memory retention! Instead of studying for 5 hours non-stop, every half an hour or so, take a breather, get some snacks, maybe play a quick round of video games with your friends before going back to hit the books.

By taking breaks in between, you give your brain the opportunity to rest and absorb what it has been fed, helping you retain the memory for much longer.

Plus, when you take a break, you’ll be able to come back with a fresh mind and start going at it again at 100%.

3. Gamify Your Studies

One fun way to remember your study material is by making little games out of everything. For example, you could ask a friend to do a quick thinking quiz where they ask random questions, the first to answer correctly gets a point. The ones who answer wrong gets reduced points. Kind of like a game show. At the end of the day, the person with the least points has to run to the store to buy snacks, or something like that.

Doing this makes learning a fun and wonderful experience that you can share with your friends. These memories will last for a long time, and so will the things that you have learned that day.

4. Peer Review Is King

Peer review is a highly effective approach to studying. Everybody is the student and the teacher at the same time. Some of us understand parts of the material better than others can, and likewise, others may pick some stuff up that we might not fully get. In that regards, when everyone is helping each other out, not only do we improve on our weaknesses, but it also enforces our strengths when we teach others.

By peer reviewing, everyone benefits, as everybody improves from this. Plus, if you are doing it in a fun way like in tips #1 and #3, it won’t just be an incredibly effective study session, it would also become a very memorable bonding session between you and your friends.

5. Online Study Sessions

Since everything is done online these days, one of the recent ways many students have been studying sessions is through discord, WhatsApp or similar chat rooms. Studying this way is also another incredibly effective way as you can do it from anywhere, as long as you guys set a time together.

In fact, it can be even more beneficial when people are typing and having the call, as a lot of the information would be on the chat, and therefore easily reviewable by anyone who doesn’t understand the material.

If everyone in the group is struggling, consider a group tutoring session. You can effectively all get assistance on the course material and still make it a fun experience.

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

As cliche as it sounds, it is true. Having a great group to support each other and study with each other is a great way to learn and absorb knowledge. It is a very different experience than studying alone because you get to have fun times, and also hear inputs and perspectives that you might have missed out on if you were studying solo.

The next time you are studying for a test, try and hit your best friends up on call and ask them to study with you. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed in the results!
