I wrote this book to help students become successful in their chosen course of studies. Being an Automotive instructor for almost five years teaching in the public school system, and in the private sector I fine that students of all ages from 13 to 55 years old struggle the most with knowing how to take notes how to study after a lesson and how to prep for a test. I hope that this book helps many who struggle with learning. Dominick James Saffioti
