Philosophy
~
Students learn differently.
When students understand the ways they learn and study best,
they develop skills that will help them succeed in school and beyond.
​
Misunderstanding material is often due to a focus challenge
coming from students needing to receive the material in a different way.
A spark of excitement is often the difference
between rote memorization and true, conceptual understanding.
​
Let's talk about how we learn.
Learning
to Learn
People have different strengths when it comes to learning.
​
Understanding what study methods work best for you allows you to encode information to long-term memory efficiently.
​
Analyzing scores is essential to dynamically guiding study and maximizing improvement.
