Study Skills

Learn to Study Smarter, Not Harder!

Secondary School can be stressful, constantly juggling school work, sports, friends and family life. The most stressful time of all is exams, when students are expected to squeese hours upon hours of learning and studying into a 2 and a half hour exam. Whether it’s for a class test in first year or your Leaving Cert exam the skill to study effiently is essential to academic success.

Here at the Learning Clinic we have through personal experience and extensive research compiled a study skills programme that will show you how to study and succeed.

Specialised, one-to-one classes are on offer throughout the year to work on important aspects of study skills, including;

Starting at the start, getting motivated to study.
Classwork, Homework and Organisational skills
Note-taking, Revision skills.
Exam Strategy, Time Management

Our Study Skills Programme allows students to work to their own personal strengths and develop a study routine that suits their individual needs.

Our Study Skills Mind Map

The Mind Map below is an example of a note-taking style we teach at the Learning Clinic. This method is for visual thinkers, letting them use colour and drawing to map out their study instead of using lists and paragraphs. We understand that every student is different and will have a different study style and it is our aim to help them find their style.
