Study and Exam Skills

It is not just what we learn, but how we learn and how we put our understanding and knowledge into practise during exams that counts for success at school.

Preparation for study is as important as the study time itself and time and effort invested into this preparatory phase will reap rich rewards afterwards. Creating the right study environment and setting clear goals before starting a study year will help to improve motivation and study focus. Using good organisation and time-management skills will save time and improve results.

Attention and concentration are key to learning better and SAS provides a number of programmes to reduce fidgetiness, distractions and mental fogginess.

Once these preparatory steps have been taken it will help the student to learn to read faster, understand and remember better, and improve writing and note taking skills.

Most educational systems measure learning achievement by exams and a separate set of skills are required to ensure that the knowledge and understanding obtained during study translates into good exam results. Overcoming exam nerves, feeling more confident, having fast and easy recall of information and completing tests accurately and on time can all be achieved with prior planning and a better understanding the exam process.

SAS offers individual study coaching sessions and a one-day Study Acceleration Course for small groups of students or parents.
