Different students learn better in different ways, and it's important to find a way to study that works best for you. Here are some things that you can try to help you study better.

Make a plan
Decide when, where and for how long you are going to study. If you decide what you need to get done every time you study, then it will be easier to achieve your goals. Also, if you do smaller amounts of work regularly, you won't have the stress of needing to cram everything just before an important exam.

Test yourself on what you've learned
After you read something, you should test yourself on it. And instead of just doing it once, do it often. Try to test yourself days and weeks after you first learn something to make sure you really remember it. You can also work with a friend to test each other.

Take a break
Research has shown that taking breaks can help you work or study better. A study by the company DeskTime found that the most productive people work for about 52 minutes at a time, then take a 17-minute break in between. So when making your study plan, don't forget to include breaks in it.

Stay healthy
Getting exercise and sleeping well can actually help you study. Research has found that regular exercise can improve both memory and thinking skills, while sleeping helps the brain save new information.

New portion of Russian tongue twisters!
This time let’s specifically focus on really tricky Russian sounds that are confusing for many foreigners – [ч], [ш], [щ]. 
I'll recite each tongue twister twice: once at a slow pace and then gradually closer to a normal speed.

четЫре чЁрненьких чумАзеньких чертЁнка чертИли чЁрными чернИлами чертЁж чрезвычАйно чИсто. (ч,р)

сАша шУстро сУшит сУшки,
сУшек вЫсушил штук шесть,
и смешнО спешАт старУшки
сУшек сАшиных поЕсть. (ш,с)

хрящ хрустЯщий у щенкА, он хрустИт хрящОм покА. (щ,х)

Try to articulate them as clearly as possible, please don’t chase the speed. Good luck!

Russian tongue twisters - part 5

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
今日の北海道の天気はずっと雨でした。
気温は14℃です。

今日も慣用句シリーズを話そうと思います。
個人的には結構気に入ってます。

日本語には、体の部位を使った表現がたくさんありますね。
今日は腕うで、の慣用句を話します。
腕は人の技術、スキルを表現することが多いので、そういった意味の慣用句が多いです。

①腕が鳴る (うでがなる)
技能(スキル)や力を発揮したくて、じっとしていられないことを言います。ウズウズしている感じですね。
例えば、
ー明日はピアノの発表だけど、今から腕が鳴る
ーラテを作れるなんて、腕が鳴る
とか使いますね。

② 腕を振るう(うでをふるう)
自分の腕前・技能を人に見せる。披露する時に使います。
例えば、
ー得意料理に腕を振るう
ーバーベキューの仕込みに腕を振るう
とか使います。
　他のことにも使えますが、私のイメージでは、料理に使うことが多いと思います。

③ 腕を磨く(うでをみがく)
技能(スキル)が上手になるように訓練、練習する時に使います。
ー彼は地道に腕を磨いてきた。だから今はトッププレイヤーになった。
ー3年前に海外へ行き、バレエの腕を磨いてきた。
などと使います。


はい、ということで、今日は腕を使った慣用句3つ、紹介しました。日常会話で使う、というよりも、本やニュース、Webサイトの記事などで見ることが多いかもしれません。

たくさんあるのでおもしろいですね！
今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
