How is it done?
We follow a Mindfulness Approach (read more below).
The Complete Study Course for the individual normally takes 6 weeks (50 minutes per week), but a small group course, "Study Course for 4 learners" has longer sessions with a break, on each of three Saturdays.

M Ed (Study Counsellor)
Mindful studying refers to the quality of being conscious of how you learn.
Although you keep in mind where you have come from and contrast that with the dream of where your studies will take you; you achieve a mental state by focusing your awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting your feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations.
This includes noticing, acknowledging and changing behaviours that do not serve you, like
thinking you can learn deeply when you are being constantly distracted. Every tiny pull toward an instant message or conversation means you have less brain power to devote to learning. Every tug of interrupted attention pulls out tiny neural roots before they can grow.
Learn how good habits can help you become an expert at your subject.
Do you (or your child) want to study with less frustration and learn with ease?
