What helps you when studying Chinese?

Me

1) If your sitting at your computer studying... use dual monitor display, or have a lot of room on your monitor. It's much more productive I feel.. dont need to keep switching windows between your vocab list, dictionary, adostrans, mp3 player, etc.

2) Cover up the clock. Although studying is supposed to be enjoyable, I find it much harder with clock staring and mocking you. Basically, time moves much faster I feel if I'm not constantly looking at the time.

3) Have caffeine. Helps me from falling asleep when repetitive listening and keeps me more focussed.

i always get more done in a coffee house with good coffee and a relaxing environment than i can get done at home. Of course the coffee is expensive, but to me if I get 2 hrs of good study time in for a 25 RMB cup of coffee it still comes out less than tuition at the local uni or paying a tutor. :)
