Need tips for study/improving memory

Hello I'm in full time work but need to study from time to time. I can't do it at home because there are too many distractions and I am so easily distracted (and procrastinate too much). I have a rubbish short-term memory and forget my thoughts/what I've read instantly. If I am typing an important ...

Learning the piano

Hello I have only recently discovered I have many traits of dyspraxia which is why I have never been able to progress playing the piano. I spent years wondering why.

Re: need help please

Hi becca Yes, please let me know how you get on. Hope your day goes well and the assignment isn't difficult. Maybe you can find a "buddy" to sit with and share ideas etc? As it's only your first day, perhaps you are feeling anxious about meeting everyone? I understand how you feel (as I've been ...

Re: need help please

How far are you in your course? Are you finding the whole thing stressful or just this particular task? Give me some more detail and I'll see if I can help. Planning is key. If you have a timeframe in which to do this then plan accordingly. Sit quietly and try not to let your mind wander or let any ...
