Looking for a Way to Help Our Son With Study Skills

Hi Lora,
Just found your website and I am looking into ways to help our son with his study skills. I am very curious about your manual and would like to hear more about it. I'm just concerned that it will give the basic information and not sure if he will get anything out of it.

Can you shed some light on why yours is different than all the others that are out there?

Thanks,
Julie W.

Hi, Julie!
Thanks for writing. What I love about my manual is that it is easy to read, not long and verbose like other study books I have seen, so it's great for the student who is already struggling. The activities are perfect for the student who doesn't have others to study with. (I devised the majority of the activities when I was a college student studying in my dorm room alone.) The other great aspect about the Easy Study Manual is that students can spend a half hour or less engaged/working with their information and learn a good chunk of it. Later on, they can return to the same activity or one of the many others to continue studying. I am a firm believer in working with information in a variety of ways and in multiple sessions in order to really learn it.

Signed,
Lora the Study Coach
