My YT videos are long enough, but there’s a lot more to know. So, if you’d like to learn more about my methods, ask questions, and dive into how you can apply them in practice, check out our upcoming (free) live workshop: ‘4 Study Hacks for Perfect Grades’ on October 25 and October 26. We’ll break down the core ingredients of efficient learning (based on MODERN research) to improve your study outcomes for your next exams. You’ll learn techniques to immediately apply to your studies that improve your understanding and retention.
