With over 8 hours of course content you may feel a little overwhelmed. Fear not, use our practical tips below to maximise your learning.
Summon your inner tortoise! We know that it's tempting to try and soak up several hours or learning in one go but you will greatly improve your retention of knowledge if you limited each session to 45mins.
Don't be afraid to pause and and think. It's your birthing journey and we are hear to support you by giving your the knowledge to empower your emotions and decision making. Stop, think a little, relate to your experiences. The course will take on a new level of utility!
Struggling to retain some of the knowledge? Grab a notebook and pen, writing by hand forces your brain to process information in a more detailed way, which helps you successfully load that information into your memory.
Share your new found knowledge. The power of teaching on learning is real. It's so powerful that researchers have given it a name 'The Protege Effect'
