- 'study with me yt videos' - these are great if studying with other ppl motivates you - there a plethora of different vibes that you can choose from, depending on your liking

- similarly if studying with other people motivates you, calling a close friend on zoom/ft/skype and having a study sesh where you hold each other accountable can be rlly motivating

- ambience videos: i literally use these all the time - they can recreate so many of your favourite places like coffee shops, libraries etc. there are also ambience videos for basically every fictional world, a(my personal favourites)

- changing around the rooms you study in - after every study block you can move to another room just to change the scenery, spice things up a little, maybe sit outside etc.

- make your desk area/study place somewhere that you WANT to be in - decorate it (or make it minimalistic), deep clean, organise everything, consider adding a plant, create a vision board etc.

Whats the best way to study for english short answers?

The first thing you'll need is a thorough knowledge of different types of techniques, including literary and visual. Once you're confident enough with your knowledge of the techniques and their effects, you need to ensure you can identify those techniques within different stimuli. For this, you'll need to read multiple and different types of texts (e.g. poems). Once you are comfortable with identifying techniques, you should start completing short answer questions from past exam papers, which will allow you to improve your analytical skills by applying your knowledge of the techniques to various types of questions.
