About

Victus Study Skills System is a systems approach to study, not just isolated skills and individual components to be mastered, but rather a way of thinking about study.

Studying is something all students are expected to do, but seldom are they afforded the opportunity to learn to perform this important task. Students try harder but with few results, once again proving that zeal without knowledge is not good.

Our Study Skills System is unique in that it has been developed by professional educators who have seen firsthand what students need to know to be effective in their study. The Victus Study Skills System is a systems approach to study: not a program of isolated skills and individual components to master, but rather, a way of thinking about study.

This system of study has been taught to thousands of students, parents and teachers. Included are:

  • instruction in organization and time management
  • motivation and goal setting
  • note taking and test taking
  • reading with better comprehension and efficiency and other areas related to improving study habits and increasing learning

With the Victus Study Skills System, students can become motivated to improve existing study habits and learn new ones!
