Nowadays learning has become increasingly important because it is vitai not only in the
education system but in the labor markét as well (D. Molnár 2013:21-38).
We know numberless forms of learning, and several literatures examine both theoretical
or practical aspects of the topic.
This study focuses on the specificity of the home learning by the surveys called Learning
habits and methods (N. Kollár-Martonné 2001: 64-66) and The lifestyle (Martonné-
N. Kollár 2001: 46-50). The questionnaires were filled by two different groups of lOth
graders. One part of the questions was about the problems they have with the most difficult
subjects and the ways how they deal with them. The other part of the questions was
about learning-time management.
The answers reveal that most of the students are trying to improve their weaknesses
encountered during the learning process. The endeavor for self-improvement is positive
but in the same time the methods of it are rather inconsistent.
It is possible and alsó important to assist the students in learning because selfregulated
learning is less typical among them if the learning process is not well structured
(D. Molnár 2013: 74-116). The efficient learning can be carried out by different
trainings or certain reading comprehensions integrated into lessons. In this way students
can be motivated to build up their home learning methods based on different concepts,
and to follow up their own improvements
