Rebecca first came
into contact with Jacqui Flisher
Jacqui and Rebecca
quickly became friends and would meet up over a cup of coffee. It was during
one of these ‘coffee breaks’ that it came to light that Rebecca had always
wanted to seek promotion to a Police Sergeant, but did not feel confident in
her abilities to prepare for and sit the necessary examination.
Jacqui devised a
study plan for Rebecca to prepare her for her exam and she was also given the
Davis® ‘tools’ of Dial, Release, Orientation and Reading for Meaning, together
with using Concept Mastery which enabled her to remember the varying
definitions used in law.
By using these
techniques, Rebecca is now able:
- to relax when confronted by stressful situations
- to regulate her sleep
patterns
- to study effectively for her
forthcoming promotion exams
- to immediately comprehend
written text in detail, and to recall much of the information weeks later
- to retain information needed
for her exams
Rebecca sat the
exam in March and passed, coming 410th out of a total of 9,062
candidates who sat the exam on the same day. Not only that, but she scored
nearly 71%, putting her in the top 5% of all candidates.
When asked if she
would have contemplated undertaking her exam if she had not worked with Jacqui,
Rebecca replied that she would have certainly shied away from the thought of
even attempting the exam as she has done so often in the past.
As a result
Rebecca can now not only look forward to a bonus for passing her exam, plus she
could now be in line for a substantial pay rise as well. Fired up by her success,
Rebecca is now looking forward to the time in the near future when she will
start studying for her Inspector’s exam, confident that she will be able to
achieve and surpass the 60% that she will need to pass, together with the
further rise in salary that this would bring.
