Unlock your hidden potential by developing evidence-based learning strategies grounded in Cognitive Behavioural Science, Neuroscience, and
Self-Regulated Learning 
Do you find yourself spending hours memorising content? Does it seem like no matter how well you know the information, you struggle when it comes to exam-style questions, or test and exam pacing? Do you often wonder why the grades you achieve on tests, quizzes and exams don't quite match the effort you put in? Our Turbocharged Learning Strategies course  can be completed on its own or as an add-on to our Turbocharged Study Skills course. This course will support any secondary or university student in becoming an expert, 'self-regulated' learner, able to achieve at the highest levels without sacrificing time for friends, families, interests and much-needed down-time.


This course is for you if:

  • The learning strategies you use aren't paying off when it comes to quizzes, tests or exams
  • Or, maybe you do fine on tests and quizzes, but exams are another story 
  • Knowing the content doesn't seem to translate to top achievement like it used to
  • You're aiming for deep understanding, the ability to apply knowledge and skills, and long-term retention

Course Description:
This course will equip you with powerful learning strategies, grounded in the principles of Cognitive Behavioural Science, Neuroscience, and Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). We know how the brain learns, and soon you will, too! 
Each lesson is designed to help you plan, monitor, and reflect on your learning and turbocharge your approach to these vital academic skills. By the end of this course, you’ll have a toolkit of advanced learning strategies and you'll be able to achieve at the highest level on quizzes, tests and exams, regardless of whether you are in high school, university, or beyond. Just as important, you'll see the process of learning - and yourself as a learner - in a whole new way. 

We hope you're excited to begin your journey!



Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, you will be able to:


  • Distinguish between memorising and learning, and aim for genuine, meaningful learning in all of your subjects
  • Understand how applying the Desirable Difficulties will make your independent study more effective and efficient
  • Use a wide range of effective study techniques that will help you apply the Desirable Difficulties seamlessly
  • Monitor your learning and make adjustments as needed






About your course developer:

Sandra Forrest has spent 32 years developing Study Skills programmes underpinned by decades of research in the field of Self-Regulated Learning, including her own doctoral research. She also draws on cognitive behavioural science and neuroscience to ensure the why's, what's and how's of learning are all comprehensively integrated into the strategies her programmes emphasise. Sandra isn't just driven by her passionate belief in hidden potential and confidence that a self-regulated approach can unlock that potential; she's driven by the knowledge that excellence is a habit, achievable by anyone who is ambitious enough to learn how to learn. 



Want to learn more about Sandra's research? You can find it in the Journal of Research in International Education; it is also required reading in the International and Comparative Master's Degree Programme at King's College, London. Her articles include:
