⌜ Virtual Study Corner ⌟

186th session Today, 4:00 PM

My goal for this series is to provide motivation to study, as studying with others can help increase productivity. I'm also happy to help with any questions you have about study techniques! :)
﻿
Bring whatever you would like to work on! Everyone is welcome and you can work on any subject. 📚
Cameras are not required, but having your camera on may help with accountability.
I ask that participants keep their microphones off during the 25 minute working sessions, but you are welcome to unmute during the five-minute breaks! We will also have check-ins during the pomodoro breaks. 🍅
If you need help on any topic, let me know! I'd be happy to set up a session with you if I am certified. If not, I can recommend Schoolhouse sessions for you. 

🎶 I'll be playing quiet background sounds during the sessions, so feel free to message me with music requests! 🎶
