Very good the only issue I had was that the course made a lot of references on American universities/ High schools so I found it hard to relate

By Kevin K. on 6/30/2020

The videos and presentation may not have been the most stand-out or high budget but the material and advice given by this course definitely stuff to live and die by in school.

By Kim Long Nguyen on 5/6/2020

He is supportive, down-to earth, and an openbook person. He covered most study skills that's gonna help you save time and have quality results. It's about quality not quantity. He also gives you various tips in regards to schooling, stress-management, and tips for high school and non-traditional students. . However, be prepared to take out your notes and record with what he is saying. Since videos are 15-20 minutes long. Honestly, I think he intentionally did lengthen the videos because he wants you to pay attention, and I can tell you that it works for me. This is a quality instructor, definitely worth checking out.

Informative, simple to follow and excellent length. I would have loved to know more on how to study, when you are not attending any classes at all.

By Tomáš Mandok on 1/18/2019

Overall a very basic course with some helpful insights to refresh or start to use commonly known tools correctly. I have to emphasize the fact, that some parts of this course may apply only to American students (or their systems) but generally speaking, the principles stay the same or similar. Drew is a very positive tutor, speaks clearly, uses common sense, gives you practical knowledge and tries to connect with you. It is necessary to have this kind of people in educational systems all over the world. Thank you for this course. Note: I wrote this 4-star feedback considering that I paid 12 EUR (in sale). If I'd pay the full price, the rating would be lower (2-3 stars) because I didn't find that much value in it.

I am a high school dropout with psychiatric disorder and I'm going back to school. This course was really helpful and really opened up my eyes to what good study technique and skill is. I will make sure to practice all the skills he mentioned and utilize every tip to its maximum potential. Thank you so much, Mr. Drew Case, for this course! I absolutely loved it.

I like the TEST TAKING part - thanks to Drew i left a in-exam chapter that so hard to remember and understand, and i do not feel guilty for that :) it helps me spend time on more effective purposes. My major is Accounting so making flash cards could help with some definition and formula, but i need to find my way for memorizing digraphs.

By Iressa 鄭 on 5/21/2018

The instructor gives many useful and practical tips which i would definitely want to use. The whole course is fun and the instructor is really good at capturing your attention

By Dayana Montano Salama on 3/5/2018

I enjoyed taking the class. It helped me to understand that the way I was studying it was wrong. I will definitely apply the instructor's advices into my studying.

By Young Sun Moon on 1/28/2018

I extracted some valuable advice that I will definitely use and apply to my studying. The instructor's material is great for students who attend classes in person so some of the material is not applicable in my case - in my line of work, most of my courses for certification are done online so I found that some of his material did not apply to my situation. This did not take away from my enjoyment of his course though. I'm glad there is a button to speed up his speech. Overall, I'm happy with the bits of advice that I was able to take with me.
