Study Skills
California Learning Center determines your child's needs through a diagnostic study skills assessment. During class sessions, students develop effective daily, weekly, and monthly schedules through the formation of priorities and goals. Students work on the functional organization of binders and materials. Students develop an understanding of how to effectively comprehend and analyze textbooks, integrating note-taking and annotation to become active readers. Students are instructed how to productively learn and retain information using their learning style. Test preparation and test-taking strategies are taught, along with techniques for dealing with test anxiety. A core component is becoming an effective problem solver, equipped to apply learned strategies in any academic situation.
