How to Help Your Student Study for a Test
Most students study by re-reading notes the night before, which barely works. A few simple changes make studying far more effective and far less stressful.

Re-reading feels productive but does not build memory. Testing yourself and spacing practice out are what make knowledge stick, and most students are never taught this.
What you can do at home
- Start a few days early. Spacing practice out beats one long cram session.
- Quiz, do not re-read. Actively recalling answers is what builds memory.
- Focus on the weak spots, not the material they already know.
- Do a practice run under test-like conditions to find the real gaps.
