Study Skills
The Thinking Consultancy delivers two Study Skills programmes for students studying for their first degree, Masters Degree, PhD or equivalent. We also offer Personal Tuition and coaching for those studying for their GCSE’s or ‘A’ levels.
The courses are for younger students, mature students and those who want to develop the skills associated with Quantum Reading™.
The programmes are ideal for those studying through distance learning.
Intermediate Study Skills programme
During the 3 days students will learn and apply the skills associated with Accelerated Reading, Quantum Reading™, Synoptic Reading, Memory Skills and Cognitive Mind Mapping.
Students can expect to have read and cognitively mind mapped 10 books during the 3 days.
Advanced programme
The advanced 5 day programme covers everything in the intermediate programme, in addition to inputs on:-
- time management
- goal setting
- prioritising
- relaxation techniques
- managing case studies
The Advanced programme is intended for students studying for their Masters, doctorate and similar. It is also for those seeking an Honours or First Class pass with their first degree.
A pre-course questionnaire is sent to those who enrol and from these we develop and adapt the programme to cover specified needs and requirements.
The pre-requisites for joining are mainly for guidance. Although we regularly have students enrol who pass everything with a ‘Distinction’ we also welcome those who may have struggled and want their future studies to be less stressful or fraught.
For personal tuition we welcome younger students who are in their mid teens. For the open courses we would prefer the youngest to be in their late teens.
