The book that I picked out is called The Study Skills book by S.Cetrell.

The book was located at the Marjon library and has a lot of chapters of how to improve students academic sides. The book is written very well and is very easily understood and helps improve students writing and layout of essays. The book is very clear and everything can be located easy as it has a clear index page. The book is also appealing to the eye so you won’t just pick it up and put it back it draws you in and can improve on your university work and things a lot more easier than they are right now !

The people that have made this book so that they can try and get the best out of students who want to improve and want to be better. Thought out the chapters it says how students must be working and how much hours you must be putting in out of the classroom just so you can have a easier time to take in all of the knowledge that you learn from lessons.The book covers  academic writing, revision & exams, dissertations & projects, basic academic numeracy and independent learning & research.

The book speaks about how it can boost confidence and this is important. As you know university can be stressful and theres a lot going on in peoples life in and outside of university and the book just teaches how to do things the good way and how to use things to your advantage, if you don’t have the confidence then you can often lack a lot in essays and in class having just a little but of confident will mean that things can go your way and this will make the experience be better for you.

I would recommend university students to use this book as it recaps elements that you might have forgotten about its such as good book also because (The Study Skills Book) covers every possible aspect of university life and study skills in an incredibly organised way, so things are easy to find. It also contains more tips than your average study skills book and has helped me immensely. I would definitely recommend it!”
