Are you born a good learner or is it a technique you can learn? Tom Barwood spent nearly 20 years of his life trying to convince one of life's toughest audiences – teenagers that it was the latter. Fortunately Tom's workshops and seminars were very well received and he travelled to schools all over the UK, Europe, the Middle East and eventually Central Asia spreading his ideas on motivation and inspiration working with both pupils and teachers in every kind of school. His Teachers Pocketbook on the subject still sells well today and has been translated into five languages. Tom has never lost his passion for illustrating all the ways in which we can boost our brain power and explaining some of the ideas behind it and so in this course learners will be taken on a journey through the world of learning looking at things like balancing the how and why, being able to develop a super memory and making sure that you can recall what you want when you need it. Peppered with interactive analysis, anecdotes and discussion this course will hopefully be enlightening, entertaining and eminently practical at any stage of life.
