We Focus on Successful Study Skills for School and Life!
Lack of study skills strategies creates serious problems for many students at all levels, and timely intervention is essential to eliminate the stress that accompanies poor study habits: homework is overlooked or goes missing, important assignments are forgotten, and studying for tests is limited to a cursory glance at incomplete notes.
Homework issues also cause conflicts at home.
We offer individualized one-on-one instruction that relates directly to each student’s school work.
Our study skill interventions help turn confused, reluctant studiers into confident, efficient learners.
STUDENTS LEARN A BROAD RANGE OF STUDY SKILLS, INCLUDING HOW TO
- Manage time and balance studying with other activities
- Use iPad or iPhone and Google Calendar to track assignments and tests
- Organize school materials, so they have what they need– when they need it– and don’t waste time shuffling through piles of folders, papers, and disorganized notes and memos
- Take better notes in class
- Monitor their learning
- Develop the best possible study guides for tests
- Take tests with confidence and skill
- Feel confident about asking questions in class
STUDENTS ALSO LEARN EFFICIENT HOMEWORK SKILLS
Get ready to study
- Make learning—and homework—a focal point for each day
- Have a specific time and place to study
- Turn off the phone, the iPod, and TV
- Keep a homework schedule
Study efficiently
- Be an active learner; set short and long-term goals
- Finish the most difficult assignments first
- Use highlighters and post-it notes
- Realize that memorization is not the same as learning and understanding
- Recognize that re-reading notes is not enough to learn
- Stop cramming and start planning ahead for tests
Finally, we teach students how to take standardized tests. Assessment tests are an increasingly important part of every student’s school life. We teach students how to strategize for paper and pencil and computerized tests. Computerized tests are now introduced as early as elementary school, requiring different strategies than paper and pencil tests. Students have the option to develop study skills with their mentor/tutor using sample tests in paper and computerized formats.
WE TEACH SPECIFIC TEST-TAKING STRATEGIES FOR BOTH PAPER AND PENCIL AND COMPUTERIZED TESTS
- Multiple choice tests
- Fill-in-the-blank tests
- Short answer tests
- Essay tests
- ACT, P/SAT, and SAT assessment & placement tests
Students who learn effective study skills—for homework assignments and test-taking—develop organizational skills that stay with them for life!
