I have been doing my lessons every day for 10 years now. Everyone knows that it takes more than one hour to complete homework. In order to complete the lessons more interestingly, I developed the following system for myself: I turn on my playlist of songs and proceed with homework. First, I perform lighter exercises that I understand better. Then more difficult, after each difficult lesson I take a five-minute break. At the very end, I teach classes where you need to read or learn (I always teach while moving around the room). Thus, I do homework much more pleasantly and more interestingly, because: firstly, I listen to music that calms me and, secondly, my brain does not get tired of stress.
