Studying In A Group vs. Studying Alone

Students always find complication over whether to study alone or in groups. While being in groups might bring lots of distractions, studying alone might let our mind wander off. However, different people have different opinion of things as some might enjoy the atmosphere of being a group but prefer to do so in silence. While others like to sit alone and do the rest on their own.

Explanation - When alone, all the explanation can be found in books and the internet, this teaches us to be independent of finding something on your own. Whilst, studying in groups may be easier as your study mates might have more information and can increase your knowledge.

Keep silent – Sitting alone gives peace and space, allowing us to think carefully and have less distraction while doing so. In groups, one conversation may lead to another and from talking about a subject, it can easily turn into a conversation of what’s for lunch, or what clothing to buy. Although this is actually up to the people in the group.

Put your mind on it – When you study on your own, you’re able to focus on the topics that you have already picked out and not waste any time on those that you already understand. While your partner might want you to study the topics that they are not familiar with.

Quizzes – Surely quizzes or questions can be done alone and there’s no problem with it. The fun way to do it is in groups; help those who needs it, make flash cards together and quiz one another. Learning with people can give us a free mind and a great mood; success is just around the corner!

Take your time – By studying alone, you can read and study your materials carefully and take your own time. Studying at your own pace is important for you to understand things thoroughly. Rushing things may only lead to less understanding and mixed up information.

Golden information – Studying in groups allows sharing of opinions, views and information. These kinds of discussion will able you to improve your thinking skills. By sharing, we can expand the basic information that we have on something and broaden our understanding on the topic.

Basically everyone have their own ways of studying. Nevertheless, we wish you the best in it!
