Staying focused can definitely become a challenge when too many windows are open and a never-ending stream of notifications are clamoring for our attention. I'm not aware of any magic tricks to overcome this, but yes, turning off notifications is always a good start when entering teaching or writing mode, or any high-concentration task for that matter. (An equivalent to OSX's "Do not Disturb" in Windows 10 is called "Quiet Hours" by the way.)
There is one useful extension for Google Chrome - StayFocusd. Freedom and SelfControl are awesome as well. At least they will help you to block social media distractions.
I would like to use the extension so i can stay focused with my computer
