Balancing High School and Part-Time Work Part 5


Balancing High School and Part-Time Work

Part 5
Additional Tips

Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:
  •    Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.
  •    Start slowly; don’t commit to working a lot of hours immediately.
  •    Avoid time conflicts by planning your class and work schedules as far ahead of time as possible.
  •    Use your time efficiently. You can use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go over a few pages of assigned reading. If your job has a lot of downtime and your boss has no objective, you can use slow periods to do schoolwork.
  •    If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.
  •    Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other things you’d like to do because of your school and work commitments.
  •    If you have too much on your plate, admit it. Then cut back as needed.
  •    Schedule relaxation time. Everyone needs some downtime to stay happy and healthy.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!
