On the First Day of Christmas

On the first day of Christmas, WLG gave to me a new way to study!

WLG Christmas Gift 1: A 2008 study by the American Psychiatrist Association proves the correlation between environment and recall. Try it at home: As your student prepares for a test, have him/her study the same content in a different place every day, making them less likely to forget the material. Every time your student moves around (from their bedroom to Starbucks to the kitchen table), they're training their brains to form new associations with the same content--AKA a stronger memory.

Follow along with us as we kick of December with tips to help your student finish the semester strong.
