“School had been very difficult for me, and I was just barely making a passing grade. I was always upset and frustrated. I did a course called Study Skills for Life. I was blown away. I never had so much drive, and I had never been so excited about studying. After doing that course and applying Study Technology, I enjoyed studying everything! I then did the Basic Study Manual, and I moved faster than ever on my studies. Study Technology has given me the tools to make my dreams become reality.” – Y.A.

“I grew up in Los Angeles in a family of 15. My mom was an alcoholic and I had to help support her and the family. I started using drugs as a teenager. As a kid I was kicked out of every school in LA County and placed in a group home. I ended up on cocaine and spent eight years in prison. Then I found the World Literacy Crusade where I had the opportunity to increase my reading skills and my ability to cope with life. I love the Study Technology. It has given me a new life. I have the knowledge and ability to learn anything now. I’m back at home now with family. I have a successful business. More importantly I have had the opportunity to get the technology of L. Ron Hubbard that saved my life. My purpose is to help others and that is why I will be working with the World Literacy Crusade to save other adults and children like me.” – R.B.

“I was told by many in my life I would never succeed in life − well, it’s not true. I must say it is fun to learn again − with L. Ron Hubbard’s Study Technology. It is a joy to know that I can learn and I can decide what I want to do. I feel good about myself as a person. Every chance I get I will share what I have learned with others.” – S.C.

“I have been applying the Study Technology to my life about four years now and it has helped me understand many subjects in school. This is wonderful, but I feel it has done much more than that for me. Primarily, the Study Technology has enabled me to accomplish things. By really understanding the data I learn, I am able to fully apply that data. As a result, I brought about wonderful changes in my own life and the lives of others. Without the Study Technology, this understanding and these changes would not be possible.” – R.H.

“I want to let you know how thankful I am that the Applied Scholastics Literacy program came along for me when it did. My ability to read was bad, about second grade level. I was not able to use the letters to sound out words. In order to get my daughter back, I needed to attend a lot of courses on parenting, but if I had not learned how to read and how to study, I would not have been able to get through the classes.” – O.L.
