Spaced out studying time



Studying information across two or more sessions that are separated (i.e., spaced apart or distributed) in time often produces better learning than spending the same amount of time studying the material in a single session (Research article by D. Rohrer Department of Psychology, University of South Florida, Tampa, USA 2012).


Therefore, it is more effective to study or have tuition over 3 times a week (a 0.5hour session) than a 1.5hours weekly lesson.


This can be difficult if you attend class tuition. If you have one-to-one tuition, it may be feasible if the tutor is able to teach multiple subjects. It still work best if the parent is the tutor.
