The Pomodoro technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. You need to use a timer to break work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by 5 minutes short breaks. After 4 Pomodoro intervals, there could be a long 30 minutes break time. During the time interval, you would feel motivated and stay focused to complete a task. If you finish the assignment early, you can use the remaining time to review the studies, digest the understanding, and plan for the next.
Let's look at the classic setup in more detail, which has 25min/interval with 5 minutes short break; 30 min long break after 4 Pomodoros intervals. The format is a 2-hour work followed by 30min break. For example, if you start work at 10:00 am, you will take an extended relaxation at noon with 5 minutes break every 30 minutes.
You can change the time based on the nature of the task and your necessity to stay focused.

Editor's Notes: We recommend the Pomodoro track offered https://pomodoro-tracker.com. It provides a timer with notifications. You can be embedded to your Notion page and customize the time interval and breaktime setup.
