Taking the mystery out of how to  excel in high school and college!




The number one goal I have when I work with high school and college students is to elevate their success and confidence in every class they take. 
My passion is  to   STOP    the cycle of frustration and stress students feel trying to figure out how to get or maintain the grades they  want on their own. 

Unfortunately, students are usually   told  "what to"   learn   but   not shown    "how to" learn. 
Learning "how to" learn starts with understanding how your brain learns best. Then you can easily decide which strategies, tools or techniques to apply. 
 
You also learn how to be actively engaged while you study, which increases your awareness - in "real time" - what you know versus what you don't know. 

This insight allows you to plan highly productive study sessions so you know when you are ready for the test.

Every student deserves the opportunity to learn how to study efficiently and effectively. 

A key component that help students prioritize how they spend their time and increase their productivity is establishing routines and habits. 
That success provides the spark of confidence which helps them continue to take purposeful action. 

It gets even better, because increased confidence naturally leads to higher motivation !

Once students know what to do to be  successful... they can choose success.

The secret is taking the first step!
