Level down stress and level up performance with ‘Test Anxiety and Learning Styles’
Ms Aayushi Sharma, the resident Student Counsellor, is bringing forth an exciting interactive session on Test Anxiety and Learning Styles on November 20, 2021, at 6.00 pm IST.
With exams facing this way, the cool season could get a little sweaty unless we learn to curb our stress and anxiety. So instead of dreading the ticking clock, it is time to command it. How well we perform in examinations will depend on how well we have understood our subjects.
An examination is not a comparison with our peers but an opportunity to self-assess. It can make us aware of our weaknesses so that we can work on them. It can also serve as a chance to assess our strengths so that we might build on them. Instead of looking at examinations with a pessimistic outlook if we look at them optimistically, we might even be able to use them as tools to help us as career guides.
So do not miss this riveting talk on November 20, 2021, at 6.00 pm IST to stay on track, focused and motivated.

Destressing the anxious nerves with Test Anxiety and Learning Styles Session 2
Shivering with the change of weather is welcome. Trembling with nerves is not. So, if the upcoming tests are making you anxious and jittery, then the second session of Test Anxiety and Learning Styles would be an excellent opportunity to take a deep breath before the sprint.
Ms Aayushi Sharma, Student Counsellor, will coordinate the session on November 27, 2021, at 6.00 pm. This session would be greatly useful to the students and help them understand how to use the benefits of tests to combat test anxiety. A test is more than marks and rankings. It is for finding gaps in our knowledge, for devising methods that work the best for us, and, most importantly, for learning management at the most basic interpersonal level so that we might transfer these skills to our professional lives one day.
Tune in on November 27, 2021, at 6.00 pm for an engaging, interactive and informative second session on Test Anxiety and Learning Styles with Ms Aayushi Sharma, to arm yourselves and head-on to the test tomorrow and the challenges ever after.
