8 Week Live Zoom Course to Improve Grades and Test Scores
Learn 'How to Learn' and Study Smarter, Not Harder!
For Students in High School and College
Personal note from Pat Wyman, Founder, HowtoLearn.com
Dear Parent,
Your child's future is waiting...
Like every parent, you want the best grades and highest test scores for your child. You see their potential — maybe they’re already doing well in school and want to know how to take that excellence to the next level, or maybe they’re capable of more but haven’t quite figured out how to unlock it.
School can often feel difficult, but it doesn't have to be. The reason is that schools tell students what to learn but don't seem to have any classes in the most important meta skill of all - how to learn. Once your child learns how to learn, school suddenly makes sense and becomes so much easier. This course stops learning stress in its tracks!
I created the Study Smarter™ course with students just like yours in mind. Whether your child is headed to high school aiming for top colleges, in college wanting learning to feel easier, or just wants school to finally make sense — this course gives them the tools to learn faster, remember more, and study in a way that works for their brain.
The result: a huge competitive advantage for your child.
As soon as your child begins this course, they will know they have a solid learning system to rely on. The results: This will nix any overwhelm they feel with their schoolwork. Your child will quickly learn how to reduce their study time and know they have powerful memory systems to rely on for every subject.
Plus, they will be more motivated and focused. In short, they will have a complete study skills success blueprint to choose from when learning any subject.
I’ve taught this entire Study Smarter course to teachers at California State University for over 7 years. Their pre and post-test student data showed that their students’ grades skyrocketed — 98% of them raised their grades to A’s and B’s.
In addition to teaching this course to thousands of students, I've also taught Study Smarter to medical school students looking to improve their Medical Board Scores and aspiring lawyers wanting to pass the Bar Exam. They've all raved about their success and learning advantages using the methods in this course! That's how powerful these techniques are. Now your child can learn the same strategies — in just one hour a week!
What Makes Study Smarter Different?
You've probably invested in tutoring, flashcards, or even high-priced test prep programs. But here’s what almost no one tells you:
Schools focus on what to learn — not how to learn.
Most students are handed a pile of information and expected to figure it out. If they struggle, it’s blamed on effort, motivation, or even intelligence — when in reality, they’ve just never been taught how their brain actually learns best.
If your child’s learning style doesn’t line up perfectly with the way schools teach, they’re left to sink or swim. No wonder kids get inconsistent grades and start believing they’re “just not good” at certain subjects. Let's put an end to that for good with the Study Smarter learning system!
Study Smarter gives your child the brain-based learning system that turns frustration into confidence and confusion into clarity.
Once they know how to learn, everything else gets easier — grades go up, stress goes down, and students finally feel in control of their school assignments.
Study Smarter is Designed to Help Your Student...
- Master the one skill that is the foundation for everything - learning how to learn. This is the skill that empowers your child for life... in school and beyond. As the saying goes - the more you learn, the more you earn!
- Finish homework faster and with less frustration
- Feel confident heading into tests and presentations
- Remember what they learn — long after the test
- Stand out on college applications (and learn how to excel in college before they even get there)
- And most of all… feel proud of what they’re capable of...

This course transformed my child's life. We had tried everything imaginable for years and nothing worked.
As soon as we used the 'how to learn' strategies, my child turned everything around and got all A's and B's. Finally, we didn't need to hire any more tutors. Thank you!

I am so happy and proud of my daughter! We used all your strategies, and she graduated with a 3.78 GPA and was accepted to her first-choice college. I am eternally grateful!

Our entire family has used the life-changing information in your course to achieve extraordinary results. My grandchildren raised their grades immediately once they learned the powerful memory strategies and I loved the speed reading section so much, I used it to double my reading speed so I could add even more value to the copywriting work I do for my clients! Thank you Pat.

The Study Smarter class is amazing! My history grade used to be a B minus since I was always a nervous wreck making oral presentations. But with the memory method I learned from you, I was able to quickly raise my grade to an A+. I'm also reading faster and taking terrific notes that I actually remember, because of the techniques in this class. Great news! I got the Presidential Academic Achievement Award, got into my first-choice high school and am now getting all A's on my report card. Thank you so much Pat!
