Top tips if you're stuck with your homework

Deja vu?

The first question you should ask yourself is what you've done before that鈥檚 similar to what you鈥檙e trying to do now. Your teacher is unlikely to set you work that鈥檚 completely new, so try to recall the strategies you used previously, and see if any of them will work here. Consider the kinds of things you need to know in order to do the work you鈥檙e doing, and review them before you start.

Help!

If you鈥檙e still stuck, then there are lots of sources of help available to you. Your school might have given you booklets or knowledge organisers, or you might have access to an online platform with resources on. It鈥檚 always best to start with resources your school has given you, if possible, as these will be tailored to the work they set you.There is help out there

You can also search for help using educational websites and videos, but be careful about where you look for these. Try and use sites that your school has suggested, or go for reputable sites, like 91热爆 Bitesize. It鈥檚 very easy to find unhelpful or incorrect information, or just to get distracted, as you search the internet for other things.

Don't copy

It might feel tempting to get help from friends, and this can be good for something specific 鈥 if you鈥檝e forgotten to write down which questions you need to answer, for example. However, avoid copying things directly from them 鈥 and this applies to website and books, too. Teachers want to know what you understand and how well you鈥檙e able to explain your ideas, so they can support you to know and understand more, and this can only come from you.

If you need support

You should always tell someone about the things you鈥檙e worried about. You can tell a friend, parent, guardian, teacher, or another trusted adult. If you're struggling with your mental health, going to your GP can be a good place to start to find help. Your GP can let you know what support is available to you, suggest different types of treatment and offer regular check-ups to see how you鈥檙e doing.

If you鈥檙e in need of in-the-moment support you can contact , where you can speak to a counsellor. Their lines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
