Effective Study Skills

$650.00

Students are often expected to have effective study skills by the end of middle school, but they are not hardwired into their brains. Successful study skills need to be learned, and the summer is the perfect time to do it! This class is a combination of individual and group instruction. Students will discover their learning preferences and will receive personalized tips that will help them throughout the school year. Group lessons will include organization, time management, setting and achieving goals, the importance of a great attitude and self-motivation, flexibility and building grit, task initiation, using a planner, successful note-taking, test-taking strategies, and tips, critical thinking skills, active listening and sustained attention and working memory. We will talk about and learn important strategies for the PSAT, ACT, and SAT. This summer course is a great way for students to prepare for future high school and college courses. Students will gain confidence, learn more efficiently, save time, and reduce academic anxiety. Students will also have the option to contact me throughout the school year to review tips or ask questions.
