Results: TeachersAs a teacher of English as a second language in Seward Park High School, a large inner-city high school, I have successfully used the Hubbard Study Technology to help my students become more able and acquire a greater understanding of the lessons they are taught. Other teachers and administrators in my school have noticed the change and improvement in my students' test scores and speaking ability, as well as the atmosphere in my classroom. Their praise has validated my application of Mr. Hubbard's Study Technology and its goals: that being a good teacher produces students who can apply what they have learned.
Being trained with the Applied Scholastics Study Technology I now have a method of learning which can be used by all students and adults who wish to get something truly meaningful from study. Now I am using the techniques in my classroom and the retention rate of vocabulary and basic sight words is tremendous. My students are the proof that this really works. My new class of fifth graders were mostly Asian and Hispanic, many limited-English speaking. I taught them the basic study principles of Mr. Hubbard and began using these principles with them daily. What did I end up with? A classroom full of students who understood how to study and how to apply what they learned. To my surprise this translated into a very well behaved classroom. Every student increased his scores from the year before in the California Achievement Test. In fact, several showed four to seven grade levels of growth! I considered the chance to learn Study Technology a great opportunity to enhance both my own teaching skills and my students' learning skills. Having used these study skills for 5-1/2 months now, I can really see their value in helping the kids. To me the greatest success of this curriculum is when an at-risk student who tried hard and failed uses it and achieves great success. When I finally succeeded in the first part of the Learning How to Learn Course for Teachers I shed tears of joy. This was because I moved a positive step forward in my teaching profession. The course is a very worthwhile one because I have gained knowledge and skills, specifically the three barriers to learning, how to detect these barriers in children and how to correct these manifestations.
