It's not easy to return to a formal school setting after many years, especially
if you were never particularly fond of long classes, homework, and exams.

You will learn how to use your
personal learning style
to efficiently apply a variety of flexible
and proven reading and study techniques.
Keep in mind, this is not a gimmick course;
these techniques do require practice. Fortunately,
we make certain you have time in class to
get the hands-on experience to become proficient
with these learning methods.
To ensure you experience the benefit
of these techniques in just 6 hours, you
will use your own textbooks and materials
to immediately practice what you learn.
If you are not currently in school, we will
provide you with relevant materials for
the in-class activities.
After the seminar, if you need additional
help with your learning skills, you can
use your TLC Strategies Workbook, or you can
contact your seminar instructor (for up
to 6 months) and receive personalized assistance
(see
TLC Advisor Program).
The 12-hour format would include advanced strategies and allow for more
in-class practice of the techniques.
If you diligently apply our techniques (in
class) you should definitely see an improvement
in your reading rate, comprehension, and study skills by the end of the seminar.

Definitely! As you become a more efficient
and effective learner you will be able to embrace
change and quickly excel in new assignments.
After all, the reason most employees don't
like change is because they are worried
that they may not be able to learn something
new, and learn it fast enough (to keep their
job).
