Unlock your hidden potential by developing evidence-based study skills grounded in Self-Regulated Learning
Do your grades not match your effort? Are you getting good grades, but at the expense of everything you enjoy? Are you feeling overwhelmed by your workload? Our Turbocharged Study Skills course will support any secondary or university student in becoming an expert, 'self-regulated' learner, able to achieve at the highest levels while still being able to thrive in your life outside of school.

This course is for you if:

  • You have ambitious goals but your effort, motivation and time-management are making it hard for your to reach them
  • You're working really hard, but your grades don't match your effort
  • All you do is study and you don't have time for friends, family, things you enjoy, or sleep
  • You want to become a more effective, efficient learner and think brain-boosting strategies are a great place to start
  • You want to develop a comprehensive approach to learning that will help you improve in all aspects of learning and performance

Course Description:
This course will equip you with powerful study skills, grounded in the principles of Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). 
Each module is designed to help you plan, monitor, and reflect on your learning; turbocharge core academic skills such as time management, engaged reading, writing process, and study strategies; and empower you with increased motivation, confidence, academic resilience and independence. By the end of this course, you’ll have a comprehensive toolkit for effectively regulating your learning and excelling in school or university, and you'll see the process of learning - and yourself as a learner - in a whole new way. We hope you're excited to begin your journey!



Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, you will be able to:


  • Understand how the brain learns and develop little tricks and hacks to convince your brain to do things you might not otherwise be motivated to do - like study
  • Identify precisely what high achievement in your subjects or course requires of you; you will have a 'roadmap' to success 
  • Apply self-regulated learning strategies to turbocharge your academic performance
  • Set goals, manage time, and reflect on your progress so that you can work more effectively and efficiently than you ever thought possible
  • Improve your academic performance through targeted techniques underpinned by the Desirable Difficulties - you will no longer waste time going through cycles of memorising and forgetting, we promise!
  • Build resilience, advocate for support, and reduce anxiety so that you thrive, rather than survive, for the remainder of your academic journey






About your course developer:

Sandra Forrest has spent 32 years developing Study Skills programmes underpinned by decades of research in the field of Self-Regulated Learning, including her own doctoral research. She also draws on cognitive behavioural science and neuroscience to ensure the why's, what's and how's of learning are all comprehensively integrated into the strategies her programmes emphasise. Sandra isn't just driven by her passionate belief in hidden potential and confidence that a self-regulated approach can unlock that potential; she's driven by the knowledge that excellence is a habit, achievable by anyone who is ambitious enough to learn how to learn.
