ICS Learning Group facilitates training in schools across the Darling Downs in
Study Skills and Strategies for both junior and senior secondary levels as well
as courses in Essay Writing and Advanced Reading Skills.
Advanced Reading Skills are sometimes referred to as 'Speed Reading' although it is much
more than simply reading fast. While it is true that the faster we read the easier it is for our brains
to create meaning from the symbols, fast reading is of little use without understanding. For that reason, the SuperRead programmes of ICS
ensure that both speed and comprehension are increased together. Students today have moyuntains of reading tro wade through and the
average student reads at around 150 to 200 words per minute. We are so confident of achieving great results with our SuperRead course that we guarantee
an overall improvement of at least double or the course is free.
The course is not a remedial programme but is designed to make poor readers good and good readers better.
Study Skills
courses at three levels take students from the transition from primary to secondary, introduce them to the skills needed to handle the
tasks of jumior high school
and then provide them with the skills and strategies to manage their learning in
their senior years.

requirements of essay writing, from reading and interpreting the question through to the final draft.
