What’s the Study Hacks Masterclass about?

Through short videos and quizzes, students will learn:
- How to study smarter, not harder
- How to be a ‘completionist’ (not a perfectionist)
- How to stop procrastinating
- How to manage distractions from Big Tech and focus their mind
- How to take good notes
- How to eat for maximum brain power
- And much, much more!
Study Hacks sets out to help students make tiny improvements in a range of areas. Over time, these tiny improvements have a dramatic impact on students’ ability to learn and their wellbeing.
It covers over 50 different study strategies and mental tools to help you achieve study success (see full curriculum below).
Why is this program needed?
Students don’t just magically pick up effective learning strategies. They need to be taught these strategies.
Unless they are taught how to learn, many students will continue to reread their books and notes over and over again, rewrite their notes, or highlight entire paragraphs of information. These old-fashined study methods are painful, boring, and not very effective.
There is a better way. The Study Hacks Masterclass shows students how to save time by studying more effectively.
