Tips for listening to music while studying
For some children music during studies is a
distraction, while for others music tends to
enhance their moods and motivate them to study
better. So if you are one of those who prefer to
listen to music while studying then the
following tips can be quite handy for you:
Choosing the right music
Ambient instrumental and classical music are
ideal options to listen to while studying.
The Mozart music is believed to improve mental
performances and is therefore the best option to
listen to when studying. Some people refer to it
as the "Mozart Effect."
Moderate volume
Listen to music at a moderate volume to avoid
getting distracted while studying.
Creating a playlist
Create a playlist with all your favourite tracks
for about 40 to 50 minutes. When the playlist
ends it will be a reminder for you to take a
short break.
Avoid listening to radio
The in-between ads and the dialogues of the
radio jockeys can act as a distraction for you
while studying.
Parents and teachers around the world seem to
have understood the positive boons of music on
