Excellent

I volunteered to read for the blind students at my college and discovered this book. Excellent presentation, great work up on all aspects of learning tools and skills. I am using the memory section of this book in the writing of my own book on credit card debt and budgeting. This would be a good book for a homeschooled student or high school student to read as well as for college students as they prepare for a good educational experience. A students work twice as hard as other students or they learn ways to work smarter. The second way gives you more "living" time.

Very practical and informative

I used this book as a textbook, when I was taking "College Study Skills" Course in my college. It helps the readers to develop skills such as notetaking, creating visual aids, preparing for exams, time management, identifying your learning style, and using the best of your memory. The book helped me a lot and I enjoyed it very much. I encourage teachers and students to use this book and I recommend it highly to anyone, who wants to become a better learner.
