Review
"We currently use this text and are very pleased with it. It is one of the most complete texts we reviewed for study skills. It has been very effective and the students tend to like the text with its unique presentation. It is the best we have seen." -- Kathryn O. "Kitty" Spires, Midlands Technical College
"The textbook adoption committee felt Essential Study Skills was the most comprehensive, user-friendly, and effective textbook on the market." -- Eva A. O'Brian, Midlands Technical College
"I have been a long-time fan of this text. Linda Wong has the theory of learning that best reflects my philosophy of teaching and learning. She offers way more resources than any one instructor can utilize, which makes this text reach a wide variety of instructors. I have recommended this book to several colleagues and will continue to do so. Wong continues to refine her text to keep up with current research and more clearly state the content." -- Mary J. Poole, Madisonville Community College --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Very practical and informative,
By A Customer
This review is from: Essential Study Skills (Paperback)
I used this book as a textbook, when I was taking "College Study Skills" Course in my college. It helps the readers to develop skills such as notetaking, creating visual aids, preparing for exams, time management, identifying your learning style, and using the best of your memory. The book helped me a lot and I enjoyed it very much. I encourage teachers and students to use this book and I recommend it highly to anyone, who wants to become a better learner.

Excellent,
This review is from: Essential Study Skills (Paperback)
I volunteered to read for the blind students at my college and discovered this book. Excellent presentation, great work up on all aspects of learning tools and skills. I am using the memory section of this book in the writing of my own book on credit card debt and budgeting. This would be a good book for a homeschooled student or high school student to read as well as for college students as they prepare for a good educational experience. A students work twice as hard as other students or they learn ways to work smarter. The second way gives you more "living" time.
