Get Better Grades in 6 Weeks
The #1 Study Skills Programme for Leaving Cert Students
At Premier Tuition Centre, our 6-Week Grade Accelerator Programme teaches Leaving Cert students how to increase their GRADES, boost MOTIVATION and develop a positive MINDSET by implementing evidence-based study methods, time-management skills and organisational techniques.
ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
The 6-Week Grade Accelerator Programme is delivered live online once a week for 6 weeks. In this course, we teach Leaving Cert students how to become more effective and efficient studiers by:
Building Healthy Study Habits
One of the fastest ways to change your results is to change your habits. In our study skills course, students will learn how to build healthy study habits that will enable them to develop focus, consistency, discipline and motivation thereby limiting the time they have to spend at the desk while maximising their productivity.
Developing Time Management & Organization Skills
Developing effective time-management & organizational skills is the foundation to getting good grades. In this section of the course, students will learn how to manage their time more effectively by creating a realistic study timetable and/or study log that suits their schedule. We will also explore the science behind effective time-management, how long to spend in each study session, when to start studying, where to study and tips, tricks and resources to keep them focused while studying.Â
Implementing Evidence-Based Study Techniques
Research has shown that most students study by re-reading and underlining material. But this has been proven to be one of the most ineffective study techniques! This study skills course will teach students a range of study techniques that incorporate visual, auditory and tactile/kinaesthetic approaches that compliment the science of learning. We will also explore a range of free online tools and resources that make subject-specific studying easier and more enjoyable.Â
Improving Mindset & Motivation
In this course, students will learn how to develop and maintain motivation in the lead up to the Leaving Cert exams. They will also learn how mindset can play a powerful role in influencing the grades that they achieve. Students will be taught how to set and achieve study goals and develop a positive self-image so that they can not only increase their grades but also grow in confidence and reach their full potential.Â
Eliminating Exam Anxiety
Exam anxiety is something that many students struggle with. In this course, students will be taught how to navigate the exam process by learning how to work within a designated time-frame, recall important information and stay calm under pressure. Teaching students how to becoming familiar with past exam papers, including subject-specific marking schemes, will assist them with this process.
ON THIS COURSE
Students Get Access To:
Live Zoom Classes
Live Zoom classes will be held once a week for the duration of the 6 week programme. Each class is approximately 1 hour long and will cover a range of topics and concepts ranging from building healthy study habits to effective study techniques.

My son Darragh took part in the study skills course. He found learning how to make a study plan very beneficial. He now has a study timetable in place which will hopefully benefit him. He found Ann Marie very helpful with her time.

Very helpful for my maths and study grinds. Anne Marie was a great help to me and went above and beyond to help me study better. I had maths grinds with Elaine from September 2023 and they have really helped deepen my understanding of maths and has given me more confidence in my maths skills

I attended the 6 week fast track , and I have to say it was truly life changing . It gave me a whole new sense of motivation for the rest of the year and I am soo grateful for all the knowledge and wisdom AnneMarie shared with us in the classes. I learned many new ways to study and learned a new part of studying each week . The weekly accountability really helped me get work done. I would highly recommend to anyone who is thinking of joining 🙂
