Our second week of summer term is complete, and what a beautiful week it’s been! ☀️ Whether you’re preparing for exams or finishing off your final assignments, essays will be an important part of your term. The thought of writing as much as you can in an hour fills many students with dread. Our top tip: plan your essay before you start writing and write in a structured, controlled way. Not only can this tip ensure you don’t run out of time, it can also strengthen your argument. Head over to our Stories for today’s Insta guide: How to Write Essays 👉👉

When you graduate, is it your dream to become an entrepreneur? (📸 @heicristian). We’ve got an amazing opportunity for you!

The event is an opportunity for our students to meet local enterprises and learn from Worcester’s business community. Plus, there will be free pizza! 🍕 To find out more out the event and to book your free tickets, click our link in bio 👉👉 @worcester_bright_futures

Assessment Week, we’re ready for you! (📸 + ✍️ by @dadolinodadalin). “It’s time to get back to work, because the end of semester 2 is nearly here! 🗓#Assessments can sometimes give us a really hard time, so I’ve decided to share with you 3 #tips that work best for me 📚 1. TREAT YOURSELF 🍬 Let’s say I have to write an essay with a length of 1000 words. I’ll buy myself 5 of my favourite treats (I usually go for the more expensive ones that I don’t have that often), place them all next to my laptop so I can clearly see them, and reward myself with one treat for every 200 words. You have to give this a try, because trust me, it really works! 2. ASK A FRIEND👨‍💻 Obviously this depends on what kind of assignment you’re currently working on, but I would NEVER write my essays alone. The thing is that if you work with a group of friends, you can give each other #feedback. You can also keep each other #motivated, so I personally get way more work done when I’m with someone rather than if I am by myself. This is honestly the most effective process of work for me. 3. BREATHE 💆‍♀️ This one sounds pretty obvious, right? Take breaks during your study session, stay hydrated, eat well, #BREATHE. Writing assignments can be really stressful, but don’t let it affect your mental health. If you feel like you can’t write anymore, don’t push yourself to. Obviously if you’re working on it the night before, you have to push yourself, but either way, you have to take short breaks. Remember that diamonds are made under pressure! If you have time, go for a short walk, watch an episode of your favourite show on #Netflix, or just relax and breathe for a few seconds. You will get way better results this way rather than just pushing yourself to hit the word count.” —————————————————— Click our link in bio for more assignment tips 👉👉

Coffee is a big part of student life, so we’re showing our appreciation in honour of UK Coffee Week! ☕️ Whether you love a fancy latte or your instant blend to wake up in the morning, many students love a humble cup of coffee. In moderate amounts, coffee can increase your focus and help you concentrate. It gets us through late night study sessions, early morning essay writing and long lectures. Coffee, we love you! ❤️ Click our link in bio to find out the best places to go for coffee in Worcester 👉👉

A beautiful start to summer semester ☀️ We hope you’ve had a great first week back on campus! Now that lectures have started again, we’re sure your exam revision is underway. No matter what year you’re in, revision at university can be overwhelming and daunting at times. If you’re feeling the pressure of information overload, we’ve got you covered.
