ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS MOST COMMONLY ASKED BY MEDIA

The third and in fact most important barrier to study is the misunderstood word. A misunderstood or uncomprehended word or definition of a word can thoroughly block a person’s understanding of a subject and can even cause one to abandon the subject entirely. Have you ever gotten to the bottom of a page only to discover you didn’t remember anything it contained? Just before that page seemed to have gone “blank,” there was a word you didn’t fully understand. This barrier is applicable to any field of endeavor and solving it was a major breakthrough which opened the gates to effective education.

Mr. Hubbard’s study technology enables anyone to be able to know when one of these barriers has been encountered and enables him or her to remedy them so that the ability to study and learn is not impeded.

These methods have been used by millions of people all over the world and have proven phenomenally successful. Here are some examples:

  • In Brixton, England, a group of students aged 8 to 13 years was put through a course in reading materials based on study technology. Each student spent 8 to 10 hours over 10 days studying the course materials. Upon completion, they had gained an average of 1.3 years in reading age.
