Q&A for How to Get Your Homework Done Fast

When you're not feeling motivated, a lot of the time it's because the task ahead of you is just really daunting. It helps to build breaks and rewards into the process. Come up with a plan and remind yourself that once you finish the work you don't want to do, you'll get a 15-minute break or a nice reward. First you just have to get the task done.

Set homework goals for yourself, then give yourself a reward to stay motivated. For instance, once you finish 1 homework assignment, you could take a 15-minute break to do whatever you like.

In the moment, you can take a quick break and go for a walk outside to get some fresh air or eat an energizing snack. To avoid having future issues with this, try to pinpoint the time of day that you're most tired and avoid doing homework at that time.

If you're memorizing lines for a play, start off by reading through the lines once a day or every other day. As the play approaches, give the script to a friend or family member and ask them to run lines with you. This is a way of quizzing yourself that can make memorization easier.

If you're bored, try motivating yourself by looking forward to breaks, snacks, and fun activities that you plan on doing when your homework is finished.

Yes. Instrumental music is better than lyrical music, however, so jazz and classical are considered to of the best musics to work to. Lyrical music often makes things worse, and makes it harder to concentrate.

Put your phone away and put on a timer. Make yourself work for the entire timer. But, as soon as it goes off, give yourself 5-10 minutes to get the distraction out of your system. Then restart the timer and get back to work.

Find the quietest place you can, and put on music if you can't find silence. If this doesn't work, stay at school to finish your homework in the afternoon, go to the library, or ask a friend with a quiet house if they will be study buddies.

Some days you'll be able to finish your homework faster than others. If you have a lot, it still may take you quite a bit of time but the best thing you can do it start early, like during a study hall class or as soon as you get home. Do your best to stay focused and not rush through it too fast.

If it's late and you're struggling to understand your homework, all you can do is try. Do your absolute best to try completing your homework and then ask to speak privately to your teacher about it the next day. Your teacher will most likely be a lot more understanding if you got all the answers wrong than if your paper is completely blank.

Think of an inspiration or motivation for it. You might hate math, but think about all the problem solving you've learned to take over the business world. You might hate English, but you need to pass it to hold onto an athletic scholarship. Just find some personal reason to get the word done and it will be much more bearable.

Talk to your teacher after class. That way, you can get more questions in, as well as one on one attention.

If you're stuck on something that you don't understand, try asking a friend or family member for help. If this doesn't work, try your best on each question and ask to schedule one-on-one time with your teacher to discuss it the next day.

You should focus on writing classes if you want to become an author. You'll have a core English class that you're required to take, but you can also try to take a fiction writing elective class, become a member of the school newspaper club, or do anything else that will help strengthen your writing. Try taking a 30 minute break when you get home from school and then start on your homework immediately. It's better not to work late at night.

If you've procrastinated on a big project, you most likely won't be able to finish it before it's due. Do your best to get as much done as you can with the one day that you have, turn in what you finish, and ask to speak with your teacher to apologize and see if there's any extra work that you can do to improve the grade.

If you can get peace and quiet in your home, consider heading to the local library to do your homework.

Instrumental classical music is the best music to listen to while you study, especially because it doesn't have distracting lyrics. Check out some music composed by Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and Chopin.

Listen to music on your headphones, ask people if they can keep the noise down while you're doing your homework, or go to the library, a friend's house, etc. You can even stay late after school and work there for a while.

Any comfortable, isolated place with no distractions.

Do it as soon as possible, right after school is a great time. You won't have to worry about doing your homework later, and once you're done, you have the whole night to yourself.

Just try your absolute best. It is better to show you tried then just leaving it blank. Try to work for a solid amount of time when working on a subject you don’t like, because it will be hard to get back into it after you stop.

Here are some suggestions: 1. Turn on your favorite (fast) song and dance for the duration of the song. 2 Wash your face. Yes, you usually do it before bed, but it always helps me feel lean and ready to start back on my work. Use cold water! 3. Stretch. You've probably been hunched over your work for a while now, and just stretching can help you feel a bit more awake. 4. Have caffeine! Down a cup of coffee or a soda. 5. If you can, step outside for a bit and walk around. It'll give your brain a break and wake your body up.

Yes, but do not respond to any texts or go on social media!

Yes, it is. Do it before you start, and maybe as a break between subjects to clear your mind. You will have to figure out for yourself if you study best in the morning or the evening.

Do as much as possible and explain the situation to your teacher. You will probably be given more time to catch up on all the work you missed while you were gone.

Ask a friend, parent or teacher.. You could just tell your teacher you are unclear about something, and ask them to help you with it.

Are you SURE you got an F because your teacher doesn't like you? Or did you do the assignment wrong or turn it in late or incomplete? If you're absolutely certain you did not deserve the grade you received, go to the principal, show them your grade, and explain. You can also talk to your parents about this and ask them to explain to the school.

Get all your assignments in on time, and put full effort into them. This will not always get your a perfect grade, but will help to keep your grades up.

Set yourself a timetable for each day until the homework is finished. Perhaps spend a couple of hours every morning doing your homework, so you'll have the whole afternoon to hang out with friends and do other things you enjoy.

I know it's hard, but try to take the long view; doing well in school is time-consuming and exhausting, but it will be rewarding. Take little five minute breaks every 1/2 hour or so and make sure you are eating well and taking 1/2 hour or so every day to get some exercise. Set aside several hours on the weekend devoted to doing whatever makes you feel happy and refreshed.
