Frequently Asked Questions

Before you register for the Gloo Essential Study Skills Coaching Program, here are the answers to some commonly-asked questions.

1. How Long Does The Study Skills Coaching Program Take?

For your convenience, you can choose between two options:

  • OPTION A: 3 Session Program. Delivered in x3 two hour sessions, one per week over a three week period. Ideal if you prefer to learn in shorter bursts and are able to attend for three separate coaching sessions.

  • OPTION B: 1 Day Program. Delivered in x1 day, from 1000 to 1600. Perfect if you want to cover all the material in the shortest possible time and in just one visit.

1 Day Program Discount: As less preparation time is required when the program is done all in one go a $100 discount applies to the 1 Day Program option.

2. When And Where Do The Sessions Take Place?

Coaching sessions take place during the daytime on weekdays, Saturdays and selected Sundays. Sessions take place at Gloo HQ in Balmain in Sydney's Inner West which is 5km or 10 minutes from Sydney CBD Google map.

Not in Sydney or prefer not to travel? We can come to you and run this program at your preferred location though this does increase the cost. For more details Contact Us.

3. I'm A Parent And Would Like To Sit In On The Coaching Program. Is This Possible?

Yes and there is no extra charge. Where possible we encourage it as you then also experience first hand the techniques your son or daughter has been shown and you are able to provide additional support afterwards. Plus we know that many parents also benefit from learning how to read faster and remember more!

4. How Much Does The Coaching Program Cost?

The Essential Study Skills Coaching Program comprising x3 two hour weekly sessions costs $695 including GST. As less preparation time is required when the Coaching Program is done all in one go, a $100 discount applies to the 1 Day Option which costs $595 including GST.

If you are interested in the program but it is beyond your budget, you can reduce the cost by having your son or daughter take the program with a friend - see the next question.

Alternatively, we also offer 2 separate, shorter programs for high school students costing less, one focusing just on Speed Reading and the other just on Memory Techniques.

Another option is to consider attending one of our Public Study Skills Courses.

5. Is It Possible To Take This Program With Another Student?

Yes, this Coaching Program can be taken with up to 2 additional students at the same time. Ideal if you have more than one son or daughter or they would benefit from taking the program with a school friend. The cost for each additional student is $200 including GST. So for a 1 Day Coaching Program for 2 students together the total cost is $595 + $200 = $795 or just over $395 each - a saving of c$200 per student.

6. We'd Prefer A Public Course. Where And When Are The Next Ones?

Our next Study Skills Public Courses are taking place shortly in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Canberra Study Skills For High School Students 1 Day Public Course.
