A practical individualised study system that gets results

Preparing for exams is one of the most important parts of your child’s school life and it is also the most difficult for them. Most young people don’t do as well as they could, simply because they are not prepared and did not know how to organise themselves.

Don’t let your child not reach their potential simply because they did not know where to start.

Our student success coaches can work with your child to ensure that they reach their highest potential.

We can show your teen

  • How to study smart to get the best results
  • Their learning style and how to use it to increase memory retention
  • How to use, organise and implement a study system that works for them
  • How to relieve stress and prepare themselves for the exams

Here at Sarah Newton Productions we believe in a systematic, holistic approach to studying for exams that is personalised to every individual child, helping them succeed.

Whether your child is gifted or hovering between a pass and a fail, this system will help them improve their grades. It has been eight years in the making and has been tried and tested; read here for the results and a teacher’s comments.

Contact us ( 07921 166998 sarah@genyguide.com) to get your child on track to success.

Knowing their personality is really important, because that means they’re going enjoy it more.

The tool I use to work with personality is The Enneagram it is a personality-typing tool that’s thousands of years old. I love it. A lot of parents and teenagers I have worked with love it. It’s a really great tool to use.

When it comes to exams, I’m just briefly going to go through it and say how each type would want to study.

What if your teen is just not interested in studying?
