With social distancing and isolation you may be struggling to maintain your routine and avoid the trap of sleeping throughout the day and staying up all night. And while you may be wondering how you could make the best of your time at home, you find yourself spending hours and hours browsing through Facebook, Instagram, and putting all that effort into creating the perfect TikTok video that will get you the most 'likes'. Anxiety and insecurity has proven to make people idle and lose focus. One way to fight this is to create a daily schedule and make your time at home more productive. Thankfully, even though schools may remain closed until September, technology allows you not only to keep contact with your family and friends, but also to continue attending classes and remain on track as far as studying is concerned. Take this opportunity to prepare yourselves for your examinations (IELTS/IAL/ACT/SAT) and use your time at home more enjoyably and certainly more constructively!
