Everyone is required to stay at home as advised by the Prime Minister of Malaysia due to the implementation of Movement Control Order (MCO). All educational institutions will be closed until the situation is safer and the coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak is under control. The government has implemented home-based learning initiatives throughout the duration of this movement control. Learning must not stop with the Covid-19 pandemic.


These are a few tips to help you enjoy learning from home.



  • Set your space

Find an area in your house where you can sit comfortably and focus. Make it separate to your relaxation space. Ideally away from a TV screen or other distractions.




  • Take notes

Note-taking keeps your mind engaged. Take some important notes and write it to keep your focus on the learning.





  • Plan your day

If you just have a list of things to study, break it down into tasks and plan to do the hardest ones when you have the most energy.




  • Lessen distractions

Try to keep your imagination and picture that you’re at school/university and not at home. Lock your phone away if you need to prevent distraction.


  • Change it up

You probably have a schedule or timetable for your lessons, but if things are becoming difficult to focus on, take a 5-min break and come back to it.


  • Take breaks

Get up once in a while. Have snacks and drinks. Taking regular breaks can improve performance and boosts energy.


  • Speak up and ask for help

When things get tough, don’t just push through it. Ask your parents, or reach out to your teacher.


  • Journal it

Use a journal to track your progress or any questions you might want to ask your teacher about the task or activities.
