Most likely, you have already experienced the fact that the work performed with pleasure gives a more productive result. This also applies to studies. Love to the science comes to people much easier when you study with joy. Luckily, modern methods of learning spark the interest in the subject.
If you like foreign languages, then you will need the Leitner system, who developed flashcards and saved us from thick books, homework, and notebooks. With the help of flashcards, where words, their transcriptions, and translation are written on each side, it is really easy to study new languages or, for example, electric circuits.
Progress, of course, does not stand still, and IT-specialists have developed a variety of applications that will become your best friends during the study of new subjects.
