Well practiced, study skills are essential to any field of learning. In my teaching and lesson planning approach with the student, we will identify the areas requiring specific attention. Then assess the current study skills based on the student's education level and ability to retain information. Assessment will include study materials, one step below, current and 2 steps above the current level. Learning will include association by interest. Once we've identified the attention level, current study skills, comfort zones, then I will develop a study tool specific to the student for him to engage and apply to his learning. By the 3rd meeting, student will be able to demonstrate a change in study patterns. Continual tools will be developed based on the student's ability to grasp. As study material enhances so will study skills.
Patience and communication are key elements of Dr. Annette's practice. She develops the student's learning curriculum on the student's cognitive behavioral development. Emphasis is placed on enjoying to learn.
