Introducing The Pomodoro Technique~ A greater time killer and concentration tactic for revision

What is it?

It is a great technique devised to manage revision time.It is used to turn time into a value ally to accomplish what we want to do and save continuous improvement in the way we do it.

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s.





How to start?


The basic unit of work in the Pomodoro Technique® can be split in five simple steps:
  1. Choose a task to be accomplished
  2. Set the Pomodoro to 25 minutes (the Pomodoro is the timer)
  3. Work on the task until the Pomodoro rings, then put a check on your sheet of paper
  4. Take a short break (5 minutes is OK)
  5. Every 4 Pomodoros take a longer break




What do you need to start?


You can use either a real timer (we love the "Pomodoro" kind) or a software timer. Set it to 25 minutes.
A sheet of paper
Blank paper is good, lined paper is better, pre-printed Pomodoro paper is the best!
A pencil
An eraser is also a plus!
