Guide
Our aim is to empower and equip you with study strategies that will help you
to develop habits that last a lifetime. We want you to become an efficient
learner and we will help by demonstrating the study techniques that actually
work as opposed to those often thought to work. Remember: studying is the
process of reviewing material that has been taught in class – it is therefore
vital that you attend and participate in school every day.
