Before March, I had never worked from home for a day in my life. It wasn’t just that I didn’t have a job that would allow me to, but I would frankly have been terrible at it. Since then, through many hours of teaching, meetings, and work on nestria.org, I’ve had to make do and learn to get work done from home, without the physical presence of colleagues, students, or anyone else except my two roommates. Though I haven’t become perfect at it, I’d like to share the basics that I learned to make myself more productive from home. These few tips should be usable not just for those who are currently employed, but for anyone that might need to find a little bit of productivity working from the same place where they live.
