This practical skills guide helps
young people with who learn differently including those with dyslexia,
DCD/dyspraxia and ADHD, study for their exams.
Students who learn
differently can often find exams challenging and can experience a good
deal of anxiety around exam time, leading to exam results that may not
accurately reflect their capabilities. Much exam stress arises from a
lack of confidence with the ability to learn and retain information in a
meaningful way. This engaging workbook is designed to help students to
overcome these issues. It not only shows students how to develop a
positive success attitude towards study and exams, but also aims to
equip them with powerful strategies and techniques for learning and
remembering.
The book offers strategies for learners whose
methods of learning are multisensory. When learning is active rather
than passive, it happens faster, and is easier, more enjoyable and more
effective. As you progress through the fun, engaging activities, so your
confidence and belief in your ability to learn will increase.
Struggling students will become confident, successful learners, with a
positive attitude and access to a wide range of effective strategies,
and in this way, you will achieve the results in exams that you have
worked for and deserve.
