NEW! Summer Study Skills Crash Course

What?

Sometimes we assume that students automatically have the foundational skills they need to succeed in life. 

But how can they develop these skills unless we teach them?

This five-week course helps students identify and apply key skills:

  • What am I doing now?
  • What is my favorite style of learning?
  • How can I focus my learning on my strengths?

Once students have identified their strengths and weakness, they set goals:

  • What are my priorities?
  • What do I want to accomplish in 1 year? in 5 years?
  • How can I set mileposts to help me reach those goals?

To help students achieve their goals, they will create daily habits:

  • How will I spend my time this week?
  • How can I break an overwhelming task into small chunks?
  • How do I keep track of all my responsibilities?

Students will also learn how to make their learning time more effective:

  • What distractions can I eliminate?
  • How can I take meaningful notes while the teacher is talking?
  • How do I successfully take a test?
