Helpful Habits to Improve Overall Study
Physical activity improves blood circulation, ensuring that oxygen and nutrients reach the brain, which enhances cognitive function. Exercise also reduces stress and anxiety, keeping the mind clear.
Sleep is just as important and is essential for memory and learning new information. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night so you can stay focused throughout the day. It’s also extremely important that you incorporate vitamins and minerals into your diet, as well as drinking lots of water.
Dehydration can impair concentration and memory, so drink plenty throughout the day. Make sure to avoid excessive sugar, refined carbs, and processed foods.
Remember to engage in activities that stimulate the brain, such as puzzles, reading, and learning new skills. This can improve problem-solving skills and keep the brain sharp.
Pro Tutoring Student Success!
“When I first came here, I was kind of scared but when I went in with Jeff (CLC Tutor), he had a really nice smile on his face, and he made me feel better. There was a time when I literally wanted to lay on the ground and scream when I had to do math, but when Jeff gave me mass on math and we played some math games, that made me feel better. I was having trouble with my multiplication tables, but he got me all the way to 7’s so far. I’m also working on Olympic math where I’m learning new skills. My confront on math is much better!” – O. (5th grade student)

Success from a Happy Parent!
“This place is wonderful! My son has Don as a tutor and he is so good with him. Patient kind and understanding. We started 4 months ago and the change we see is astonishing. We kept our son back in first grade as he was unable to read he hated to go to school and didn’t think he was smart as the rest of his classmates were reading by end of year last year. And that’s why we are here. The turnaround is remarkable. He loves coming to work with Don and is more confident. He actually likes school now! I am so happy we found a flyer in a little reading library when school was starting. Otherwise he would still be hating school. The best part- his teacher has told me that he is really turning around she can’t believe how well he is doing. Testing from the beginning of the year to the middle of the year he has skyrocketed, her words not mine. And this week she told me he jumped two reading modules! My son finally feels smart and the happiness from that is priceless!!! Thank you Community Learning Center – you all are changing lives!!!” – A.B. (parent of a Pro Tutoring Student)
A Better Set-up for Doing Homework
Consistency helps build a routine and ensures that homework becomes a priority. Designate a specific time each day for homework. Write down all assignments in a to-do list and prioritize them based on due dates and difficulty. This allows you to focus on what needs immediate attention. Find a distraction-free area where you can concentrate. Turn off your phone, social media notifications, and other distractions.
Happy Thanksgiving from CLC!
