Gavin was invited to deliver two 2-hour GCSE English revision sessions at Norden High School in Rishton. He used the Number Rhyme Memory System and other techniques found in the 6S Study Skills Course to show students how to prepare more creatively for their English exam. The students were asked to provide a star rating for the courses, and their response was most encouraging indeed. Of the students taught, 100% would recommend the course to others and 100% had rated Gavin’s efforts as 4 stars and above.  Here is just a sample of the 5 STAR reviews that Gavin received:

• “It was worthwhile. It helped a lot and gave useful tips on how to remember useful stuff to get a pass grade for English” – Anon
• “You actually remember things with the exercises that are used.” – Iram Hussain
• “Power point was simple, effective and easily understandable and methods of remembering were easy, speaker was funny.” – Daniel Hebson
• -“I learnt a lot of interesting facts about how to make doing an English exam.” – Dannielle Edmondson.
• “It helped me to give myself confidence on things I struggled on.” Marcus Carver
• “It helps me realise the simple key words in the subject” Jonaid Mahmood
• “It has helped me to remember and memorise key facts.  This will help me in the future.” Faraad
• “It is worthwhile and you learn a lot from it” Anon
• “It was fun to do and it was a laugh.  I hope he comes back to help other people.” Danielle Hodge

Gavin then went on to deliver a Science revision session using the Journey System, Roman Room System, Summary Poster and Quickfire Quiz method (all components in the 6S Study Skills course) to help students at a school in Hartlepool prepare for their exams.

Once again, Gavin delighted his audience with these techniques, and they were generous in their praise of the experience. Here is a sample of the 4 and 5 star comments made by the students on the day.
