This series of programmes have been created by Anna specifically for Students and Parents of Students to offer solutions to dealing with examination performance stress.  These trainings offer practical, easy to apply tips and hacks that will reduce stress and increase memory recall.  By optimising our environment holistically- both internal and external, we can create the best conditions for excellent performance during exam periods.

These bespoke training programmes can be of short duration 1 hour zoom or up to six week courses delivered on-site to private groups, schools, and universities.

Half-Day Training Course for University Students

Anna should be included to each year of B Ed program, this training was very beneficial.

Probably one of the best lectures we have been given yet.

As someone who gets stressed easily I have found great tips I will use from now on.

I found it extremely relevant to my life.

It is so practical that I can actually use it in real life. It gave me a new perspective on stress.

1 Hour Training for B.Ed Students about to go on Teaching Placement

This workshop made everyone think positively and you could tell everyone left more relieved about the stressful time ahead.

I think this will be a major help to me.

Practical solutions to stress, not the typical eat well, sleep well lectures we are used to over the years. Very interactive.

I liked the quick techniques, no long lecture slides, short and to the point.

I liked the way the lecture was interactive and realistic. It was delivered in a fun way and I have learned tips that will definitely help me.

Six Week Training Course for Leaving Certificate Students

This course had a well balanced mix of theoretical input and experiential exercises including humour which proved a very effective means of facilitating the students to participate actively throughout the process.  There was lots of interaction which enhanced the learning both at a cognitive and interpersonal level. I have no doubt that the students have benefitted greatly.
