I´m enlisted at the English and Spanish dpts. ..in Germany. I
once abandoned my studies many years ago but re-enlisted two years ago. Now
at 49, I find myself stuck again, with two assignments in Spanish
linguistics and the general stage-fright before the final gauntlet of
the exams, which hapen all at once here. However, now that I have those
tools at hand which you´ve been so kind as to make available in the net,
I feel much more confident to win at last. Thanks a mil for all the valuable
information! 7-3

From India: You have done an excellent job in creating the Study
guides. Now, I have cited your words and thoughts, in a blog
meant for teachers, trainers, and learners...
I am working on revisions of our Community Services Addictions Certificate
program at the institution named below. Many of our students are adult
learners returning to school after many years away. Most students are
First Nations citizens who are leaving their home communities to attend
school. Your "Study Guides and Strategies" website is a fantastic
resource for these students. The language is clear and accessible and
provides practical information. Again, congratulations and many thanks
for creating such as fabulous resource. 6-22
From Cyprus: I am an ELT Professor in the Turkish Republic
of North Cyprus and to say we are short of resouces is a grand understatement!
Your site has bailed me out so often when I needed a way to make a lesson
to reinforce a lecture. .. Most of my students come from Turkey ...
Showing them a site like yours lets them know that there is someone out
there that cares for them. 6-19

like the layout and the quotes on the top of each guide, which gives each
guide a personal touch! ..I was just thinking yesterday that I needed
to find my next mentor, and until that time I will keep busy reviewing
your study guides to pick up some tips from the experts. 5-25

You provide an excellent site. 5-21
I want to thank you for such a wonderful site! At the age of 50,
I am being retained, loving every second of it but, need to improve my
concentration skill. Already some of the skills are showing results.

I just wanted to let you know that I am creating a site for my students
and link several sites that I feel might be useful. Yours is definitely
a great addition! Thanks for all the work you have done! You
have made my job MUCH easier! 5-13
I’ve enjoyed skimming through your web site. I teach a class in
skills-building at Eastern Connecticut State Univ. and I found the categories
and the information that you provided very helpful. It is very clear,
you provide helpful examples, and you offer links to really good web sites,
too. I especially enjoyed the section on learning to concentrate;
you mixed good behavioral reinforcement techniques together with Eastern
mysticism.
Thank you so much - your materials are wonderful and the flash really
adds a nice interactive element 5-8
I’m very impressed by your website « Study guides and strategies ».
Needles to say that it is very complete and thorough! I’m
working on a similar project for University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Social
Sciences. We wish to ensure that all students have the proper intellectual
tools needed to succeed. 5-4

It is really interesting. 5-2
I found that the presentation on Time Management is very helpful and
also The Learner's Weekly Planner. It showed me where my time goes and
how I can manage it better. 4-28
I came across your time management tool/day planner while doing a google
search for activity lists/time study. Great experiential, visual set up!
My background is in therapeutic recreation (re-creating oneself) and I
think that the day planner does a great job in spelling out those pieces
of life...my perspective is 1/3 for something productive, 1/3 for sleep/rest
and 1/3 is your re-creation time. Of course in that re-creation time,
you have chores, tasks, meals, etc. Therein lies the challenge. I am going
to pass along your web address to the therapists that I work with at our
non-profit inpatient psychiatric unit at Salem Hospital, in Salem, Oregon.
As we finally get into the computer age in learning here in healthcare,
I think the people we serve will enjoy your tool. 4-26
