Seven Strategies to Study Less and Learn More
Andrew Watson, who taught at independent schools for nearly 20 years, will present his seven strategies to “studying less and learning more” at Chase Collegiate on December 4. Watson will provide information on brain changes during adolescence, giving greater insight into why your child is changing both emotionally and cognitively. He will also offer some suggestions on how to manage these changes. “My goal is to translate the recent brain science research so that teachers, students, parents, and schools can put it to practical use every day,” explains Watson. The talk will be most relevant for Middle and Upper School parents.
When: December 4, 2012 from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.
Where: The Commons: Chase Collegiate School The event is free and open to public. RSVP - ldawkins@chasemail.org to reserve a space.
