#studys
So I got a new kanken and I thought I would do a little ‘what’s in my backpack’ schtick even though there’s nothing in my backpack because school is online now. But I still thought this could be cute… a theoretical queen!
As always, drop in my asks with questions or shoot me a message about how online school is going for y’all - I literally LOVE hearing from everyone all the time <3

As I will be taking a flight tomorrow morning this post seems quite apt :)
Ideas for study:
- Physical books or readers - make sure it’s not too hard a book that you’ll have to make notes for etc. that is more suited to when you have time and space at a desk
- Audiobooks
- Spaced repetition flashcards - can be done virtually anywhere - For Chinese I use Pleco and Anki, for French I use Anki
- Load up your phone/MP3 with audio material
- Pen + paper - you can write out characters, write a journal etc.
- Read newspaper apps on your phone (the chairmans bao, dushu etc.)
- Laptop with study material you can use offline (or with airport wifi)-
- download videos offline (IQIYI is like a netflix/youtube in China and has an offline download function on the computer and phone app)
- save online grammar wiki pages offline in advance and make notes when out of wifi
- in addition to studying words with flashcard software, I also have exported it to excel and am working on a list of example sentences which a) aids in remembering new vocabulary and b) helps to remember different circumstances it can be used it (I find there are some words I can tell you the English translation but have a hard time using the word myself). Once I have created example sentences I spend time writing these out so I can learn how to write the characters. This is what I shall be doing on the train and at the airport
- NB* make sure your laptop is fully charged for your journey and charge whilst at the airport. Alternatively you can use your phone
