For a significant subject (like the title of a part), I like to utilize huge letters. Minor subjects and subheadings are written in all tops to give some separation from the remainder of the notes. 

Visual cues are my closest companions when taking notes! They permit me to summarize what should be stated, and as should be obvious from the image above, I've truly built up my framework. Circle visual cues mean a certain something, lines mean another, and bolts mean something different. I truly prefer to utilize bolts to give more data on a specific visual cue. Bolts can likewise be utilized to show how certain subjects identify with one another!

YELLOW = recipe 

PINK = jargon word 

ORANGE and BLUE = other significant things that don't fall into the two earlier classes 

By having a framework for featuring, it's extremely simple to perceive how it can explain my notes! At times it can look somewhat overpowering (like the image above), however, I realize that that particular page is one that I should concentrate more than the others. 

As should be obvious in both the image above and underneath, I additionally use featuring to recognize various pieces of an outline! By featuring right now, can without much of a stretch see what is equivalent as far as the chart. 

doodling and hand lettering 

Alright so I held back something special for later! I am fixated available lettering and doodling. I mean I endeavor to resemble the entirety of the notes on Tumblr under the study class. Also, on the off chance that you haven't looked at that class on Tumblr yet, you're truly passing up a major opportunity. 

I like to utilize pennants to underline my headings. As should be obvious from the photos, these headings are generally a primary theme from that exercise. Outskirts are additionally a portion of my preferred approaches to stress headings. 

Alright so I don't have numerous instances of hand lettering in my notes, yet I guarantee I use them. Now and then it's difficult to do multifaceted hand lettering during class since I'm additionally attempting to focus on what is happening. I regularly use hand lettering for headings, cites, and subtopics.
