How The Guide to Greatness works for young people:
How The Guide to Greatness (TGtG) works for your young people
With covid-related lost-learning, let alone the increased writing and reading demands in all subjects, TGtG provides friendly, easy-to-follow ways to improve learning and study skills in every subject:
- TGtG demystifies all the common study skills that prevent students from achieving e.g. how to write an essay or any long piece of writing, how to tackle difficult texts, how to argue persuasively
- TGtG provides constant support to students in the classroom and home – no laptops, tablets or phones required.
- The content and tone supports students’ wellbeing, confidence, self-belief, motivation and encourages an aspirational, confident, can-do mindset.
- Students love it, check out testimonials: ‘This book is a life-saver!’
- Students own the book; it’s theirs to keep, personalise and annotate (as opposed to random resources), enabling them to make connections in their learning, increase their confidence, give them ownership over their knowledge, and the security that comes from this; a feeling everyone likes!
- It provides easy-to-follow instructions for all the essential study skills needed for success in every subject at secondary level e.g. how to structure an essay, what and how to write for any purpose, how to tackle difficult texts, how to communicate better.
- it’s an invaluable home-study companion – no laptops, tablets or phones required
- its engaging, friendly, non-judgemental approach solves all those common confusions and mistakes that students are often too embarrassed about to ask a teacher
- it encourages an aspirational, confident, can-do mindset
- it’s the ultimate study guide that your child can use in every subject
- it shares those skills needed in life outside and beyond school too
- it can be read from start to finish, or dipped into – depending on the need
- it encourages independence; surveys help identify strengths, areas to develop, with signposts to help further
As parent/carer, use it to help your child:
- for brushing-up on your skills when helping your child/ren with schoolwork
- to read and use together when doing home-study with your child/ren
- for knowing what you can do to support your child/ren in their studies, so you feel confident and reassured that you’re doing what you can to help your child be the best they can be.
