Powerful Learning Strategies that Schools Don't Teach provides a roadmap to better performance at school.


Surprisingly, most high schools don't teach students HOW to learn. This book is a collection of learning strategies I developed while teaching and doing my PhD that help students to do just that; learn how to learn.


Each resource has been tried and tested in high schools, forming the Learning Strategies Curriculum, and in one-on-one tutoring settings.


A teaching colleague, the parent of a Year 11 student wrote that, 'The Learning Strategies Curriculum was the most important thing my daughter learned at school.'


Overwhelmingly, students surveyed on the strategies find them engaging and effective, and both parents and students report strong improvement in school performance.


The strategies can be used in every subject, at any year level. This includes Technical College and Tertiary students who may be struggling with learning.


The book includes sections on Learning and Lifestyle, Getting Organized, Memory, The Easy Way to Learn the Times Tables, Motivation, Work Habits, Summarising: the Key to Easier Studying, Learning Challenges, Study Techniques, Assessments, and Maximising School Performance.


Some student comments:


'Thanks to you, my work and study habits have improved out of sight!' Lizzie, Year 8


'My grades have come up this year with your wonderful teaching. Now I know how to learn!' Jessica, Year 9
