I started working as a Student Advisor in September 2021, so am relatively new to the role. However, I have developed many key skills over the course of my studies, from academic writing to personal resilience, and am excited to share everything I have learned with you. Even training as&nbsp;an&nbsp;Student Advisor has opened my eyes to resources I didn\u2019t previously know about, such as Edge Hill\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/2020\/01\/21\/returning-to-learning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Returning to Learning<\/a>&nbsp;group.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to successful study, your <strong>wellbeing is crucial<\/strong>. My Study Happy tip is to<strong> give yourself rewards<\/strong>. <strong>Create a realistic study schedule<\/strong> (e.g.&nbsp;work from 10am \u2013 5pm, including lunch and breaks), and set yourself <strong>achievable goals<\/strong>. For example, a goal might be to read a couple of journal articles within a set time frame (e.g.&nbsp;from 10am \u2013 12pm). When you achieve a goal, give yourself a treat! It could be anything from a nice cup of tea to lunch with friends. Positive reinforcement is the perfect way to ensure you remain happy and motivated.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAULA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Paula.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Paula-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Paula-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Paula.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My name is Paula Garlick, I am a third year Psychology student, just embarking on my dissertation.&nbsp;I became a Student Advisor in September this year, so I\u2019m new, but already enjoying the experience considerably.&nbsp;&nbsp;Something you should know about me is that I am not your typical student. I am a mature student and am very late in starting my higher education journey at the age of 54. As a mature student <strong>I can thoroughly recommend the Returning to Learning workshops<\/strong> as you get to meet other older students on different courses and share our experiences, problems and solutions. It\u2019s also a nice excuse to have a chat and a cup of coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Cat.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Cat-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16458\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I like to think that I am a positive person most of the time, but we all have our down moments and it can be harder to juggle when you are older and have heavy commitments outside of university. <strong>If I feel the pressure building I like to take myself away for half an hour<\/strong> and I will have a walk around the gorgeous grounds if I\u2019m on campus. If I\u2019m at home I\u2019ll either put something on Netflix for a bit of a binge, read some fiction or spend time with my lovely children and my cat Lucy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>EMMA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Emma.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Emma-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Emma-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Emma-769x1024.jpg 769w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Emma-768x1023.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Emma.jpg 961w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hello,&nbsp;I\u2019m Emma, and I\u2019m in my third year studying a joint degree in Creative Writing and Film Studies!

I already feel I\u2019ve had so much opportunity to get involved and love being part of it!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One tip I would recommend is making sure you Study Happy is to try an<strong>d incorporate things you enjoy into your studying routine.<\/strong> It can sometimes feel like a drag when you&nbsp;have to&nbsp;sit down and complete your work, but little changes can make a big difference. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Examples could be lighting your favourite candle, putting a soft instrumental playlist on in the background, or choosing your favourite snack to nibble on while you study.&nbsp;&nbsp;By making these changes I\u2019m able to approach studying with a more positive and productive mindset and&nbsp;actually enjoy&nbsp;myself while I\u2019m completing my work. It doesn\u2019t have to be&nbsp;draining, and&nbsp;approaching it as an activity you can take some enjoyment from really does help you to feel happier and more productive when studying. Try it out, and remember that studying happy is studying for success!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ALEX<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"164\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex-164x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex-164x300.jpg 164w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex-559x1024.jpg 559w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex-768x1406.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex-839x1536.jpg 839w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex-1119x2048.jpg 1119w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Alex.jpg 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 164px) 100vw, 164px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hi, my name is Alex, and I am currently a third year Geography and Geology student at Edge Hill university. I am new to the student advisor role only beginning mid-September but I\u2019m eager to continue and&nbsp;do the best I can. I work part time as a specialist customer assistant at Booths supermarket on the deli and hot counter. Basically I slice cheese and wrap it pretty! I recently took part in the digital student internship which is where I was made aware of the student advisor role. I enjoy&nbsp;playing&nbsp;on my Xbox in my downtime and I make a lot of milkshakes.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My top study happy tip would&nbsp;definitely be&nbsp;to <strong>timetable everything.<\/strong> By everything I mean even going out with your friends, watching a movie or to obviously crack on with some Uni work. Approaching timetabling in this more life&nbsp;orientated&nbsp;scheduled manner has helped me to find it less daunting adhering to a strict schedule of work. This is because when things you\u2019re excited about doing are integrated, it takes a lot of the pressure off the&nbsp;actual important work that needs focusing on.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>DARREN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/DL-1-uniform-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"276\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/DL-1-uniform-1-300x276.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/DL-1-uniform-1-300x276.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/DL-1-uniform-1-326x300.jpg 326w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/DL-1-uniform-1.jpg 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hi,&nbsp;my name is Darren and I am one of the student advisors here at Edge Hill.&nbsp;I started in March 2021, so I am still quite&nbsp;new,&nbsp;but I have learnt so much over the year&nbsp;and hope to share my knowledge with you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While I am a&nbsp;Student&nbsp;Advisor,&nbsp;I am also a student, studying&nbsp;a degree in BA HONS Teaching, Learning and Child Development and have just begun my 2<sup>nd<\/sup>&nbsp;year.&nbsp;Yes,&nbsp;I did start my degree during a pandemic but that didn\u2019t stop me.&nbsp;One of the most enjoyable things about studying the course is the fact that I can gain an insight into how education can develop and influence children\u2019s future.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am in the same situation as you all are with assignments and studying however one&nbsp;little top tip from me to stay happy and motivated when studying is to <strong>plan time up into bite size chunks<\/strong>.

I\u2019m Maya, and I\u2019m a third year Film and Television Production student at Edge Hill. I\u2019ve been a Student Advisor for about seven months now, and I\u2019ve loved every second as I\u2019ve got to meet so many of you! \u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As it\u2019s Study Happy week, I\u2019m going to share with you (what I consider to be) the most important and useful tip for revision and studying at university. It is\u2026\u202f<strong>use a revision timetable<\/strong>! It\u2019s very easy to fall victim to poor time management \u2013 especially when you must juggle university with your social life and home life. \u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having to smash out all your assignments right at the last minute is a\u202f<em>huge<\/em>\u202fcause of stress and trust me &#8211; it\u2019s worth avoiding. So, take half an hour out of your day, sit with your calendar for the month and a list of your assignment due dates, and work out a schedule. It doesn\u2019t have to be much, even if it\u2019s just an hour or two every night. This way, you won\u2019t overwork yourself and you\u2019ll be a lot more relaxed in the long run!

I\u2019m Callie, a third year History and Politics student, and one of the Student Advisors. I have been a Student Advisor since March 2021, so for about 7 months so far, and I am really enjoying it!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My top study happy tip would be <strong>to split&nbsp;up&nbsp;your work and relaxation time.<\/strong> Decide a time for the start and end of the day that will be your work time, for example, 10am-5pm. It could be a part-time job, attending lectures or seminars, or doing your own studying. Work during those times but outside of those times, allow yourself the chance to relax and take your mind&nbsp;off of&nbsp;work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>By distinguishing your time, your mind knows what to focus on and when, so it makes it easier to study more efficiently<\/strong> as you know that by a certain time of the day, you are done.&nbsp;I find that this really helps me! I sometimes go on a walk after finishing studying to really define that break between work and&nbsp;relaxation, but&nbsp;find whatever works for you to relax and take a break from thinking about work.&nbsp;If you need help planning your time, head over to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/uni-skills\/\">UniSkills&nbsp;webpage<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/uni-skills\/getting-organised\/\">Getting Organised<\/a> section. There you will find a weekly planner template where you get write out what times you will be working or relaxing. I hope this helps you to Study Happy this year!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-blue-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CHARLOTTE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Charlotte-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Charlotte-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Charlotte-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Charlotte-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/ls\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2021\/11\/Charlotte-1.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hi, my name is Charlotte and I&#8217;ve been a Student Advisor since 2019.
