High School Study Skills Programs
Speed Reading For High School Students
- 2 Week Program Or Half Day Program

To be successful, high School students are required to read and remember a huge volume of information. Sadly, many students struggle with this challenge and as a result fail to achieve the grades they truly deserve. What's more, many students study inefficiently, unnecessarily wasting time having developed poor reading and study habits.

In this fun, fast and effective Personal Coaching Program your son or daughter will learn how to read much more quickly, with increased focus and improved recall by adopting a number of simple yet effective reading and study techniques.

Designed and delivered personally by Australian Memory Record Holder and founder of Gloo, Chris Lyons, this one to one High School Study Skills Program gives students the knowledge, skills and confidence to study much more efficiently and achieve better grades.

What Students Learn

In this unique one on one Speed Reading/Study Skills Program students learn...

  • Effective Reading - how well do you currently read and what's possible?

  • Why most students read below their potential and with poor comprehension

  • 4 key techniques to increase your reading speed, focus and comprehension

  • How to quickly double your reading speed through effective practice

  • How to remember more of what you read and study using the BDA approach

  • How to make quick and memorable notes, and keep them organised

  • How and when to summarise what you study to increase retention and recall

  • When to review your study notes to maximise recall

  • How to use the GO method to plan essays and assignments, quickly!

Who Delivers The Coaching Program?

All High School Study Skills Programs are designed and delivered in person by Australian Memory Record Holder Chris Lyons. Over the course of the last 3 years Chris has delivered more than 100 presentations, workshops and coaching programs for high school students showing them how to study more effectively and improve their grades.

Frequently Asked Questions

Before you register for the Gloo Speed Reading For High School Students Coaching Program, here are the answers to some commonly-asked questions.

1. How Long Does The Coaching Program Take?

For your convenience, you can choose between two options:

  • OPTION A: 2 Week Program. Delivered in x2 two hour sessions one week apart. Ideal for learning in shorter bursts and if you are able to attend for two separate coaching sessions.



  • OPTION B: Half Day Program. Delivered in x1 four hour session, either a morning or an afternoon. Perfect if you want to cover all the material in the shortest possible time and in just one visit.

Half Day Program Discount: As less preparation time is required when the program is done all in one go a $50 discount applies to the Half 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 Drummoyne in Sydney's Inner West which is 6km or 10-15 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 Speed Reading Coaching Program comprising x2 separate two hour sessions one week apart costs $445 including GST. If the Coaching Program is done in one half day session of 4 hours, less preparation time is required and the cost is $50 lower, $395 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. 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 Half Day Coaching Program for 2 students together the total cost is $395 + $200 = $595 or just under $300 each - a saving of c$100 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 Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, Wollongong and Geelong Study Skills For High School Students 1 Day Public Course.

7. We're Looking For Something Slightly Different
