Bootcamps & Classes
AZ College Planning classes
In addition to the personal student one-on-one meetings, we host a variety of classes that complement the one-on-one meetings.
Each class builds upon the other. Classes do not need to be taken in any order.
100 Student Class: SAT/ACT Prep ‘Beat the Test’ class
This class is an orientation of the SAT, ACT and P-SAT test. Strategies on beating the test are outlined in easy to follow steps. Students are given instructions on how to beat the test with accompaniment videos for further study and review. Best practice and score maximization techniques.
150 Student Class: How to Study class
Professor Robinson, Professor of Psychology, at Ohio State University, while teaching his class determined that students didn’t know how to study effectively. In 1941 he wrote a book entitled “Diagnostic and Remedial Techniques for Effective Study”. This book is out of print. I found a copy of this book and based the curriculum on this outstanding book. Depending on if you are an auditory learner, visual learner or kinesthetic learner, learning techniques are discussed and taught in this class.
