Effective learners are not born, they are created, with the right mix of ideal conditions that help them be the best learners they can be!  Unfortunately, effective learners are also destroyed because of the over-obsession with rote learning and fear-driven learning.

Effective learning is the ability to learn new things in a way that we can understand, remember, connect and apply what we learn in real life. It’s more than studying, recognizing or memorizing content. But while our children are expected to perform, they are hardly taught how to learn effectively. In the 21st-century - an era of knowledge, disruption, and distraction - only those who know how to learn can keep up with the pace with change.

Content and curriculum may get obsolete. Learning skills will last forever. 

Effective learners tend to be more successful in unfamiliar or always–changing environments, because they tend to have: ‍

• The ability to learn about diverse things equally comfortably
• The ability to connect what they have learnt to come up with new perspectives
• A richer L2L Toolbox of learning skills and technique to meet their goals
• More ownership of their learning process and accountability for their learning outcomes 
• A more positive attitude and comfort with taking on new learning challenges 
• A more reflective approach towards learning: they try to get better and better at learning

 Help your child become an effective learner so they are ready to learn, create, innovate fearlessly in a world where nothing is predictable.

Start with these 3 important foundational elements.
