The teachers at Vail Christian High School periodically incorporate study
skill lessons throughout the course of study in their classrooms. For
students who struggle significantly with different issues including: test
anxiety, difficulty taking notes, preparing for tests and quizzes, reading
and writing difficulties, they are evaluated through our academic
intervention program and are scheduled into the resource center.
Students who need some suggestions on improving or brushing up on these
skills but are not in need of an intensive intervention could check out the
following resources:
Sandra Burner - Area Director for Tutor Train providing services for small
group tutoring or private sessions grades pre-K through high school.
