When it comes to studying - one size does NOT fit all - especially if you're neurodivergent. How we approach learning and what works can vary widely depending on if we're ADHD, AuDHD, Autistic, Dyslexic, Dyspraxic... and maybe some of those profiles overlap. So where do you begin?
Neurodivergent study skills expert and tutor Julia Childs has put the power back in your hands to experiment and find out exactly what works for you. With a pick 'n' mix of strategies and templates, tailored not only on your neurotype but also potential overlaps in profiles with other neurotypes, you'll be guided to try out the strategies most likely to work for you and your brain based on your skills and how you experience the world. Through the journey of experimenting (and enjoying it) you can get your own perfect 'bag' of study skills. Covering everything from self-care and burn out (yes that's actually a study skill) to getting organised, reading, and notetaking and much more, you will obtain personalized study skills for life.Author Biography
