To make it permanent on your system and the variable keep working after close the terminal, ou after a restart use:

nano ~/.bash_profile

Add lines:

export ANDROID_HOME=/YOUR_PATH_TO/android-sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/emulator

Reopen terminal and check if it worked:

source ~/.bash_profile
echo $ANDROID_HOME
