Study Hall on Tuesdays
Study Hall on Tuesdays“If you just stopped complaining you’d be done already!” “Get off Netflix/Facebook/WhatsApp and do your work.” “Why am I getting emails from your teachers saying your work is overdue?” Does this sound like your household?
SPOT Study Hall now offers a place where teens can get tailored help and support them through the stresses of school. Study Hall is especially designed for teens struggling to cope with the demands of academics who may have learning difficulties and/or anxiety.
Study Hall will take place every week (60 minutes per session). Each session is designed for specific problems that teenagers are struggling with today. Teens can join in on all of the sessions, or join select sessions that address a particular issue or topic. Study Hall topics include, gaining awareness of our study habits, combating procrastination, overcoming fear of failure, time management, relaxation techniques and more. Following this, teens will get individualised help on their studies, and will have opportunities to ask questions, evaluate, and meet other likeminded teens to create a solid support system with the support and guidance of a certified tutor and counsellor.

Overcoming Procrastination and Avoidance
Managing Academic Anxiety and Stress

Dealing with Boredom and Lack of Motivation
