Here comes the ugly truth: I\u2019m a nerd, geek, and techie. I\u2019ve always been interested in math,\u00a0science, and economics. I get high scores in tests, I can teach kids and explain the most complicated equation, and I can spend the whole life speaking about Elon Musk,\u00a0doing science experiments, or hitting the books without a doubt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there\u2019s one thing I want to confess:\u00a0I hate homework.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, I have been always taught that doing out-of-class activities help to obtain in-depth knowledge, improve skills, and practice theoretical material. I know that\u00a0homework\u00a0plays a key role in\u00a0the educational process, but I don\u2019t like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m not alone with this problem: A survey shows that over\u00a070% of students\u00a0dislike homework. The majority of kids don\u2019t like homework and they also dislike their school teachers who assign so many tasks daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do all these children have in common? They hate doing their homework. Today, I\u2019m going to share my thoughts on this issue and I have 5 reasons why I\u00a0don\u2019t like homework:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. It takes a lot of time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The educational process is time-consuming. On average, I spend 8 hours on education activities each day in college. After leaving the class, I feel exhausted and tired to\u00a0do my homework<\/a>, especially when teachers assign too many tasks or\u00a0difficult assignments on subjects like philosophy. Not only do learners claim that they have many tasks to do after classes, but also parents and researchers believe the same. As specified in one research, 37% of people say high school grads have too much homework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s no secret that having\u00a0too much homework\u00a0requires spending a lot of time on your study workload. To enjoy college life for full, it\u2019s important to keep a study-life balance. However, most nerds like me spend their free time to study hard in order to get a good grade. As a result, we don\u2019t have time to spend with friends, relax, or enjoy our hobbies. It\u2019s the primary reason why I dislike my homework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. It discourages learning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most people believe that nerds are focused on the learning process and they are ready to spend the whole day hitting the books. Although we\u2019re interested in education without a doubt, we are still common young people who may lack motivation, especially if we get too much study workload that leads to stress, depression, and headaches. As one study by Mollie Galloway says: \u201cAlthough the students in our study were averaging more than three hours of homework per night, most did not find this homework engaging, nor did they feel it enhanced their learning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having too many tasks at home is a proven way to dislike your favorite subject with time. After all, it\u2019s nearly impossible to be involved in the educational process if you feel constantly tired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. It destroys creativity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It goes without saying that being a creative person is a plus for all people who want to achieve career success. It helps to find alternative solutions, solve problems fast, and stay ahead of other people. Simply put, creativity is a vital soft skill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teachers know it and they do their best to help\u00a0pupils unleash creativity. For example, the content of your task can be aimed at using imagination, but this means nothing if you\u2019re tired. No matter how hard professors try to teach us creativity, spending too much time on learning after classes kills it, and researchers prove it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also happens when students work on assignments that require only knowledge, not creativity. For example, it\u2019s hard to show off your creativity\u00a0with geography assignments.

At the same time, it seems that nerds don\u2019t have to be creative. However, working in a competitive environment, this skill helps\u00a0computer scientists\u00a0and\u00a0programmers\u00a0stand out from other workers even when\u00a0working on a market research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. It affects my relationships with parents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Living with family, you have to take into consideration their views, thoughts, and beliefs. It\u2019s no secret for my mother and father that I hate homework, but my\u00a0relatives believe that out-of-class activity helps to develop study habits, teach time management skills, improve knowledge, share tips, get better grades, and obtain a diploma. Although it makes sense, it\u2019s difficult for me to study after classes. It takes time and effort to get my work done, and my relatives become angry which affects our relationships. With love for my family, I respect them and I don\u2019t want to let them down, but it\u2019s difficult for me to keep calm from time to time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. It causes headache and stress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From time to time, I feel some health problems after doing my education-related activities. Whether the content of homework is difficult to understand or I can\u2019t submit my finished task on time, I know that my reputation can suffer, so I become nervous. Am I the only one?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking a look at educational forums, I\u2019ve mentioned that many learners share their stories about having headaches after studying a subject at home. It makes us irritated and angry, so some pupils seek out support and they wonder whether\u00a0should homework be banned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, Ellie-Rose Archibald started a petition to Ormiston Academies Trust three years ago. Many undergraduates supported her idea and it got the following results: 96% of learners claimed that homework caused more stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s no secret that young people want to enjoy their youth and hang out with peers instead of sitting at home, having headaches, stress, and depression. Thus, it\u2019s another reason why many learners feel bad when they have to examine the content of their homework before working on it or\u00a0learning by rote all historical events and dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a Solution?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes, I don\u2019t like homework. However, I want to be an A+ student who achieves academic success, so I have to spend time doing my assignment. Over the last few years, I\u2019ve found several tips and tricks that work well for most learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
