This course is designed for the student who has mastered the skills taught in the GOAL™ Program, or who is already organized and turns in completed homework on time, but does not perform well on tests. At Gordon Achievement Center we teach proven study techniques so that the student learns how to study effectively, thus leading to higher grades and greater self-confidence.

Each week as new skills are taught, the student is given an opportunity to apply them within the context of what he/she is studying in school.

During the nine-week Study Skills Program, the student will learn skills such as...

• Outlining from a text book
• Taking effective notes from a lecture
• Using Q & A cards
• Making a study plan

Study Skills 2 - Test Taking:

After mastering the skills taught in GOAL™ and in The Study Skills Program, this nine-week program is a natural progression. The student will learn how to take every type of test, with a strong emphasis on essay tests. Study Skills 2 will help the student take tests with confidence. In addition, the various study techniques learned in the previous program will be reinforced weekly.
