Chappaqua Learning Center to Host Popular S4 Study Skills Workshops

The Chappaqua Learning Center is proud to host two workshops of its evidence-based Successful Study Skills 4 Students (S4) program. The workshops foster academic achievement by teaching students key study strategies that help them learn and achieve better academic success.

“We are pleased to have the S4 at the Chappaqua Learning Center return for 2015,” said Judy Suchman, owner and director of the Chappaqua Learning Center. “Learning study skills lays a solid foundation for students to achieve their goals in school and beyond,” she added, “and it boosts their confidence in their approach to their studies.”

The first workshop, Study Skills 100: The Basics, for Middle School students, will be held on Sundays, March 1, 8, 15, 2015 from 12:00 pm – 2:30 pm.

The second workshop, Study Skills 200: High School Prep and Beyond, for students in 8th thru 12th grades, will be held immediately following the Basics workshop from 3:00 pm – 5:30 pm on the same days, Sundays, March 1, 8, 15.

Both workshops will be at The Chappaqua Learning Center, 400 King Street, Suite 8, Chappaqua, NY 10514.

The S4 program is founded on educational research and evidence-based studies. Its highly interactive approach is designed to clearly demonstrate how to apply students’ own curriculum and course material to the taught methodologies and systems. The workshops are taught by experience teachers. Each class is limited to 10 students.

The S4 programs are designed to bolster academic confidence, motivation and preparation as academic workload and expectations increase rise. Skills taught include: planning, organizing, executive functioning strategies, as well as quiz, test, and long-term project preparation strategies.

Michelle Sagalyn, president of S4 said, “We are excited to be returning to The Chappaqua Learning Center with two robust programs for middle and high school students. Whether students are looking to acquire basic skills in organization, time management, and executive functioning strategies, or simply looking to improve their overall academic experience, these tools – when used – will help them succeed. Implementing even a single new skill has been shown to boost students’ motivation and academic performance.”

Each 3-session 7.5-hour workshop is $395. 10% discount for second workshop or sibling, manually credited after registration.
