Why? Because habits that emphasize consistent practice have been proven to help overall retention of new learning material.
Students like you have succeeded in not only making it through the finish line of their program by incorporating this daily practice, but also have deepened their learning and mastery of their new skills. ➡ Pledge here!
Commit to your learning by making your skill-practice a daily habit!
