Hedonologist Posted February 11, 2014 Report Posted February 11, 2014 Personally I prefer in my house, using on the sofa or at a desk. For some reason I cannot stand learning in the library, or any other public place. I'm not sure why but I generally need solitude. I can learn with 1 or two other people but certainly not with many more in the room. I suppose I've also been an auto math and that's just the way it is. Quote
marmunmrhundun Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I too love to study at my house. It just seems like I can't get anything right if I am not at home, I will be so distracted any where else. I also like to study in a area where I will not be bothered, that is why I like to study at home. Quote
sillylucy Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I like to study in the library. It is one of the few places I can clear my mind and just focus. I have always loved visiting the library ever since I was a kid. It was so exciting to go to a place that would let you borrow books for free. I couldn't wrap my head around that. Quote
Bonyi Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I prefer to also study in my house while lying on my bed. I assimilate more when I study like this. Quote

I find that the vastness of the library also amplifies a lot of the background noise. This coupled with the fact that library chairs are not the most comfortable makes it a bad environment for me.

fredkawig Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 I prefer to study in the library and in other places where you can read without getting disturbed. The library is a really good place which I've only used recently because our Elementary and High-Schools had no library before. Quote
Peninha Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 I usually study at home when it's quiet. If there is good weather I enjoy studying in a big public park under a tree for example, it's really relaxing and the nature sound help me to think. Quote

You certainly wouldn't want to get caught out in the rain, especially is you had books out with you. Having said that I've studied in the garden before, it certainly can be relaxing. Quote
linguaholic Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 I usually study in the library or in the train. I just cant concentrate myself at home. I wish I could but it just doesnt work. :frozen: Quote
Meera Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 I usually study at home but I really like studying at a café, I usually go to Barnes and Nobel to study and sometimes the library. I hate studying at home because I can never get focused and my family is too loud! Quote
sidney Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 I also prefer to study at home in my room, because I can never get to learn anything if the background is noisy or while there is music in the background. The room has to be silent so that I won't get distracted. Quote

I suppose I've also been an auto math and that's just the way it is.There are many good places to study, you just have to look for three things when finding a good study place. Comfort, appropriate noise levels and information access. Studying in my room passes all of the qualification of a good study place. It is quiet because I sleep solo, I studied in my jammies, I go from bed to floor, any area in my room is good for me and I am plugged into the net so my info is top notch. Quote
Denis Hard Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 Outside in my garden. When I'm close to mother nature, I find it easier to actually enjoy anything I'm doing. Different places work for different people. Quote
diprod Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 I like to study in a garden that is quiet. Nature has always inspired me so I'm going to find a garden near me. I like the calming atmosphere too. Quote
Timeisrelative Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 I personally like to study by myself alone. It is when I'm alone I really get concentrated on the task at hand. Other than that it is also nice sometimes to study with friends so that you can speak to eachother in the language you are learning. Quote
Daimashin Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 I like to study at someplace quiet where I can focus on absorbing the things I read. It helps too that the place is somewhere I'm comfortable with. It doesn't matter where the place is at as long as it fulfills these two things. Quote
pipps Posted February 18, 2014 Report Posted February 18, 2014 I like to get a cup of tea, get comfy on the couch and get learning on my laptop! I take notes sometimes but mainly use my laptop. Would anyone reccomend using my own notebook more? Quote
Baburra Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 For learning a new language, I prefer to be isolated in a room or at least somewhere no one will hear me practice my pronunciations as I will get shy if I knew someone was listening to me fumble around. :shy: If I'm just studying in general, though, I'd prefer to be in a library. I like the atmosphere of libraries and I think it helps me focus a lot more there than if I were at home with lots of distractions and it's a little too comfortable. Quote
angelicagapit Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 I prefer studying alone and in a quiet room with good lighting. I don't study so well with others because one of us will tend to get off topic or fool around. I don't listen to music while studying also because I'm a music-lover and I tend to focus deeply on the music, the lyrics and the beats rather than studying. Quote
darknessassassin Posted April 4, 2014 Report Posted April 4, 2014 I mostly study in libary and in my room. I might even pick libary over my room because there are many distractions in my room. I like studying somewhere quiet so I can totally focus on what I'm studying and have full concentration. I guess I could never study somewhere outside where is noisy. Quote
diprod Posted April 4, 2014 Report Posted April 4, 2014 Right now, I would love to study in Harvard. It's my dream school. I would love to interact with different people there. Quote
shamzblueworld Posted April 5, 2014 Report Posted April 5, 2014 I can learn anywhere, in solitude or in a call of many, doesn't bother me much because I concentrate well to the point and pivot my focus on it for as long as it interests me. Quote
pipps Posted April 5, 2014 Report Posted April 5, 2014 I like to learn at home in my bedroom where I'm alone at a peace. My house can be a bit crazy sometimes, so it would be impossible to learn something there. I wouldn't be able to learn in a library either because I like to speak out my words when I learn them, otherwise they won't stick in my head. Quote
btripp2 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Posted November 26, 2014 I like to study in the library. My library's fifth floor is quiet and I like working in quiet. But sometimes I go to the other floors where I am able to talk so I can study and interact with others. But the library in general puts me into this certain mode where I actually get my work done. Quote
AExAVF Posted November 26, 2014 Report Posted November 26, 2014 I prefer to study alone, whether at home or in the library. One thing I don't like is having distractions while studying. I wouldn't mind studying with friends as long as they respect my space and let me study in peace. Quote
