The pressure for students to achieve and do their best is real; what they do now will most definitely have an impact on their choices and options.
Give your child a helping hand
Increase grades, Improve study technique and decrease stress.
Hi, I’m Sarah Newton, leading youth consultant in the UK, author of “Help! My Teenager is an Alien” and TV star of ” My Teen’s a Nightmare I’m moving out”.
Over the last eight years I have been using a Student Success Programme, which is a systematic, holistic approach to studying for exams and doing better at school that is personalised to every individual child, helping them succeed. This system has been used again and again and 90 % of students going through the system have increased their grades, with some raising grades in 5 subjects.
Whether your child is gifted or hovering between a pass and a fail, I can help them improve their grades. How can I be so sure of myself? Because it has been eight years in the making and has been tried and tested.
“Sarah helped me think about my goals and what I would like to work towards. It has made me realise that I capable if I put the work in. I know now when I choose something I am saying no to something else. My priorities are different I want to do better now. I know exactly where I was going wrong and now I think that success is not something that others can tell you how to achieve. Instead you have to work it out for yourself. ”

The Student Success Programme is designed to help your teen learn:
- How to study smart to get the best result
- Their learning style and how to use it to increase memory retention
- How to use, organise and implement a study system that works for them
- How to relieve stress and prepare themselves for the exams
Your teen works with Sarah to create their own “Study Plan of Action” and then, on strategies and techniques that they can use practically in the real world to support them in getting the best results possible.
The System
The Student Success Programme is split into four distinctive areas and look in depth at:
1. Environment
What environment is best suited to them for study? How can they change their environment to suit their study needs. The different requirements of nomadic and stationary learners.The impact environment has on the brains’ ability to take in information
2. The System
The best systems that will make your child want to study. How to create a study system that works and will get results. How best to chunk down study to get the results. Ways to make the information stick more.
3. The Mindset
Which beliefs and thoughts may be getting in the way of effective studying. How to deal with the negatives thoughts when they come up.Choosing success
4. Habits
How to include helping habits in your everyday routine. How to eliminate habits that are hindering. The importance nutrition and exercise have on study.
The programme emphasises a huge element of personal responsibility and your child is expected to take full responsibility for themselves. While I know this system works, I cannot guarantee personal results for your child and I will interview your child at the beginning of the programme to ensure they are agood fit for this. All I can say is that 90% of students that have worked with me have seen results.

“We were delighted with the impact of Sarah’s coaching and felt it provided a lifeline for our son, at a time when he was really struggling. The coaching gave our son increased self-confidence and encouraged him to think about all of his options for future development. Sarah also provided a strong support for us as we tried to adapt our own approach to working with him. Our family is now a much more harmonious unit and we feel that we are at last able to communicate with our son in a way that we couldn’t before.”

“It’s been one school term since having spoken to you and I am delighted to say, we have seen a real change in Jess, she is altogether happier and more confident and much better able to cope with problems that come her way. An added bonus has been that her grades in all school subjects have rocketed as a result of her new found confidence. We are truly grateful of your help, thank you.”
