a. Learning strategy types
b. Build up your own strategy
c. An importance of strategy
1. I am glad to share my opinions on effectiveness
of learning strategies with you. Firstly, I would
like to define the word “strategy”; it has;
become probably the most important notion
for all great personalities. Why? Because this
is the foundation of all further developments,
achievements, goals; the richest people-
or managers have set explicit approaches,
directions; that is a strategy in their lives.
Can you imagine a ship without a sail? It will
surely lose its direction and get drowned if it is]
without a sail. A sail is a strategy for a ship. So,]
if human beings do want to achieve something
j
nice in their lives they should have life-long]
strategies directing them at top goals.

b. Essence of learning strategies
c. Studying concepts analysis
2. Now we are coming closer to learning j
strategies. Our lives consist of such learning or j
studying concepts as perceiving, comparing,]
analyzing, concluding, giving feedback. From

by listening, then by reading and writing. This!
is the main life rule! Learn! Study! That is life-1
long learning. That is why all learners (people)1
must find out special learning strategies for I
themselves no matter what professions they]

Theoretical overview of strategies
Career progress with the strategic assistance
From my own experiences I can tell you when
I entered the Westminster University I faced a
number of difficulties first, I couldn’t manage
tasks, I was about to fail some subjects. Then
I tried to analyze what a hell is going on, I
finished a high school with excellent marks,
how could I become an unsuccessful student at
Higher Educational Institution?! After I have
analyzed all conditions I came to conclusion
that I needed some strategies. Using organizing
strategy, I got a calendar where my monthly
plans were depicted, monitoring strategy
gave me a chance to check my progress,
evaluating one made me assess my study,
using imagination strategy made me be more
creative, I became more communicative,
enthusiastic, started to work cooperatively
using cooperative strategy.... In short I opened
a new gate for developing as a.person. I still use
those learning strategies in my profession, as I
always compare them to pyramids, stepping up
to the top you are getting to your proficiency!
