By treating my brain like an athlete trains their body, I unlocked a new level of academic performance when I was studying for my law exams, and I still use the learning methods today in my own journey and that of my clients.
As a study coach and mentor for nearly a decade, I’ve always believed that success in academics requires more than just hard work; it demands a strategic approach, much like how an athlete trains for peak performance. I took this philosophy to heart and transformed my study habits when I was studying law some years ago. I have been working with students coaching them for around 10 years using a structured framework with is adapted to suit. My service is very unique.
I created the ‘Student Law Toolkit’ that streamlined my entire study process. By organising my syllabus and resources, I could easily access the materials I needed, allowing me to focus on what truly mattered—learning!
Implementing a 4-Phase System:
Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, I adopted a structured 4-phase system designed to enhance retention and understanding. This method provided me with a clear framework to follow, making each study session more productive. I use this today with my clients.
I shifted my mindset from marathon study sessions to optimised study sprints.
By breaking my study time into focused intervals, I was able to maintain high levels of concentration and absorb information more effectively.
It is not enough to simply just put the time in to your studies. You need a clear strategy. This transformation not only makes studying more enjoyable but also significantly improves retention and understanding of the material.
It is not that you cannot learn or do this…you just need a structure and the right learning methods for you.
It is my job as a study coach to pull out the best in your greatness that is already there!
