Effective Study Skills

Effective Study Skills (ESS) is a copyrighted, nationally published, and scientifically validated system for study developed by Houston sociologist James K. Semones. Taught to thousands of high school, college, and graduate students throughout the United States, this seminar will be taught in person by its author and developer. ESS is designed for learners 15 years of age and up. In one dynamic seminar, students are taught how to use a comprehensive, skill-based system to earn superior grades in school. Skills covered include how to read a textbook for maximum comprehension and retention, get the most out of class, take effective notes, manage time effectively, prepare for different types of exams in order to earn superior grades, conquer test anxiety, etc. The seminar also incorporates a confidential pretest to enable each participant to accurately pinpoint current skill levels and areas that need improvement. (Note: One or both parents may attend for free for each registered high school student.)
