Preparing for Finals and Exams? Get the Free e-Book for Middle and High School Students

Just in time for preparation for final exams, Successful Study Skills 4 Students (S4) is offering a free e-book, S4’s Test and Exam Study Tips, as a service to area students. S4 is an area leader in providing study-skills workshops and coaching to middle, high school, and pre-college students.

The book, which is written for middle and high school students, provides accessible strategies for preparing to take a variety of tests. Strategies are outlined for specific content areas: English, math, science, social studies, and foreign language. It also covers specific test types, including multiple choice, short answer, essay, and open book.

The strategies are adapted from S4’s popular study-skills workshops, which will run in July and August in Connecticut and Westchester County. The workshops offer a more in-depth approach to studying, note-taking, time management, project management, and self-advocacy. More information about the workshops can be found at www.s4studyskills.com/Upcoming_Workshops.html.

The e-book will be available for download at http://www.S4StudySkills.com/Test_Prep_Study_Tips.html through June 10, 2013.
