IN THE NEWS:

 
 

IN EVERY SCHOOL, THERE ARE ACHIEVERS OF EXCELLENCE.

THEIR NAMES COME UP IN CONVERSATION, TEACHERS TRUST THEM AND THEY GET THE BEST GRADES.

Achievers of Excellence are not 10x Smarter, 10x more Experienced or 10x more Likeable.

This has nothing to do with being a genius - it’s got everything to do with 3 skills that make students excel.

The 3 Skills that Achievers of Excellence focus on are:

 
 

  1. Asking the Right Questions - Achievers of Excellence seem smart because they understand what you need to know to succeed, and they ask questions to gain this knowledge.

  2. Crafting the Right Stories - Achievers of Excellence design ways to reliably memorize the vast amounts of information required for exams.

  3. Framing the Right Answers - Achievers of Excellence refine their answers using an examiner’s mindset, allowing them to excel beyond the competition.

If you look closely, you will see people in every school applying this approach to break into the top brackets of academic success, excelling in education, having time for sports, volunteering - the infamous all-rounder.

EXAM COURSES LEAD

Dr. Dau was born in Birmingham, UK and went on to study Medicine at St. Mary's Hospital Medical School, Imperial College, London, also earning a BSc. From the University of London. Coming from a relatively poor part of the UK, he taught himself how to learn and achieved some of the best academic results his school had seen.

Dr. Dau has had a lifelong interest in teaching, having taught many medical students, junior doctors, family practice residents and nurse practitioners over the years.

He believes that education holds the key to happy, productive lives for ourselves, our children and the communities we live in. He continues to have a fascination in maximizing our memories for learning, as he studies as a physician and lifelong learner. At the age of 12, he found himself wondering how he was supposed to remember poisson, in French, meant fish, in English? This question started his journey into learning about learning.

He developed the basis of the techniques we now use at The Art of Smart.
