About Chelsea

About Me | Study Skills Coach

Learning isn’t about how many hours you spend with your nose in a book—it’s about how you engage with the material, organize your time, and retain what you’ve studied. With 15+ years of experience in education, curriculum development, and behavioral support, I specialize in helping students build study skills that work for their brains, not just follow generic advice.

My background includes:

-English Major (Writing) and Theater Major (Playwriting & Dramaturgy)
-Behavioral Technician and Certified Peer Recovery Support Specialist
-Deep expertise in learning differences, including ADHD, executive dysfunction, and disabilities
-A passion for empowering students to take control of their learning

What Sets Me Apart: I don’t just teach what to study—I teach how to study.

My approach combines:

-Empathy and Adaptability: I meet students where they are, whether they’re struggling to keep up, aiming for top grades, or just want to feel more organized.
-Structured Systems: From note-taking to time management, I help students create personalized, sustainable habits that reduce stress and build confidence.
-Active Learning Techniques: I focus on strategies that work with the brain, not against it—like spaced repetition, self-quizzing, and teaching back concepts.
-Confidence and Clarity: My background in theater and writing has trained me to communicate clearly, think on my feet, and adapt to any learning style.

About the lesson

About the Lesson: Study Skills That Work for YOU

Studying doesn’t have to mean endless hours of rereading notes or cramming the night before a test. With the right strategies, structure, and mindset, you can learn more efficiently, retain information longer, and feel prepared and confident—not just for exams, but for lifelong learning. Whether you’re in middle school, high school, college, or beyond, I’ll help you build study skills that fit your brain, your schedule, and your goals.

What We’ll Focus On

Active Learning, Not Passive Review:

-How to read textbooks and notes strategically to extract key ideas.
-Effective annotation and highlighting to focus on what matters.
Self-quizzing and summarization to test your understanding.

Note-Taking Systems That Actually Work:

Finding your style: Are you a visual learner, a bullet-point thinker, or a digital organizer? We’ll design a system that works for you.
-Cornell Notes, mind maps, or digital tools—we’ll explore what fits your needs.
-How to review notes efficiently so you’re not wasting time.

Memory and Retention Techniques:

-Spaced repetition to move information from short-term to long-term memory.
-Mnemonic devices and visual aids for tricky concepts.
-The teach-back method to solidify your understanding.

Time Management and Planning:

-Breaking down big assignments into manageable chunks.
-Creating a study schedule that balances school, work, and life.
-Prioritizing tasks to focus on what’s most important.

Test Prep That’s More Than Just Drilling:

-How to approach different question types (multiple-choice, essays, problem-solving).
-Pacing strategies to avoid running out of time.
-Reducing test anxiety with mindfulness and preparation techniques.

Why This Approach Works
-You’ll save time and energy by studying smarter, not harder.
-No more last-minute cramming—just consistent, effective habits that reduce stress.
-A personalized system that grows with you, whether you’re in school, college, or beyond.
-Confidence that comes from knowing how to learn, not just memorizing facts.
-Whether you’re struggling to keep up, aiming for top grades, or just want to feel more in control of your workload, I’ll help you build the skills and systems to succeed.

Chelsea is a natural born teacher, she’s extremely personable and found a way to help connect me to the subject matter at hand. Essay writing and SAT prep were never my strengths but now that I’ve been accepted to college of my choosing I can say other wise. Thank you!
