Learning and Study Skills Support

Reach your academic potential!

On-line learning techniques are available 24/7 and can supplement time you spend reviewing difficult material or previewing texts for courses.

The Learning Strategies Development website can help with time management, organization, effective reading and note-making, preparing for and writing exams, quantitative problem-solving and other critical learning and study skills. 

Individual consultations can also teach you more efficient study methods. So if you happen to be in Kingston, visit the Learning Strategies development unit in the Queen's Learning Commons (Room 142, Stauffer Library) or in the Counselling Services offices (in Health, Counselling and Disability Services, 2nd floor LaSalle Building at 146 Stuart St.) or call ahead at 613-533-6000 ext. 78264 to make an appointment.

Comments from students:

• Improving my memory helped tremendously in PSYC 100 and carried over to ANAT101/3.0.

• Learning how to think more deeply helped me understand what the profs are looking for.

• I am such a procrastinator, but tips from the learning strategists helped me get on track.

• I was scared of some courses, so I got the text to read over the summer - great move!

• The on-line learning resources are really helpful, with practical schedules and worksheets plus some theoretical explanations.

• Using different ways to organize material was an efficient way to both learn and memorize complex material.
