You’re definitely not alone in this! Many students experience similar issues, especially when juggling multiple assignments and deadlines. Here are a few tips that might help you remember to turn in your work:
Set Reminders: Use your phone or a planner to set reminders a day before an assignment is due. This can give you a heads-up to prepare for submission.
Create a Checklist: Make a checklist of your assignments and check them off as you complete and submit them. It can be satisfying to check things off as you go!
Establish a Routine: Try to set a specific time each day for checking what assignments are due. Consistency can help make it a habit.
Use Calendar Apps: Consider using a digital calendar where you can input deadlines. Many apps allow you to set notifications to remind you to turn things in.
Talk to Your Teachers: If you’re consistently struggling, let your teachers know. They might have suggestions or be able to offer extensions in some cases.
Making these changes might take some time, but with practice, it will get easier. Good luck!
