Everyone has his own learning strategies which are more suitable and helpful. As for me, I usually use two different learning strategies: preview and review.
Preview plays an important part in our confidence-building.For example, I will preview the lesson when it is difficult for me to understand or has many new words. Once I have previewed, I will have a roughly understanding about the lesson. Therefore the fear will disappear and confidence will come.
In my opinion, I think review is indispensable. By reviewing, I will understand what I have learnt better and deepen my memories about the lesson. Besides, I usually review the lesson many times. Review is really helpful especially when what I should memorize is boring. As for me, when I was reviewing the lesson, I often came up with many new ideas which are helpful for my learning. As a result, if I have reviewed enough times, the lesson will be easier and easier to understand.
Everybody knows these two learning strategies. But it is easy said than done. I strongly recommend you to master these two methods. It will make your study easier and happier than before.
Wow, KaiRan, you are very disciplined in your learning strategies. I like it when you said you often come up with new ideas to help with the learning process! I believe they are varied and fun. Do you include things like making associations, putting them into stories, into a learning map, or flash cards? Hey, you must teach me some of your new ideas some time. Enjoy your learning.
