The Hollywood Education & Literacy Project (H.E.L.P.) is dedicated to eradicating illiteracy by remedying the causes of educational problems through one-on-one personalized instruction and mentoring and is further committed to empowering individuals to become confident, independent learners by teaching them how to learn. A further goal of H.E.L.P. is to be a program model for people to replicate in all types of settings, making literacy, learning and the tools to be successful in life available to students of all ages around the world and to promote volunteerism to empower people to improve their own communities.

Student and Volunteer Success Stories

"The basic premise of the Hubbard Study Technology is that if a student is succeeding you let him or her get on with it, but that if the student is in trouble (as more and more students today are) there is a new precise technology for solving that difficulty. This is a new look. L. Ron Hubbard has been bold enough to assert that for any learning problem there is a workable solution. Thousands of people trained in his Study Technology know this is true and feel they now have in their hands the missing tool necessary for both comprehension and the ability to apply in any chosen field of study." —B.F., Associate Professor of English

"I am thrilled to say that I have learned the barriers to learning. I never knew them! Now I have a much better understanding of the bland and bored expressions I've seen on my children's faces while studying. Most importantly, I've learned not to waste time trying to explain the present problem but to go back and find the point at which they became confused. Eureka!" —D.B., Parent

"A marked difference in my ability as a student was made upon the completion of my study of the Basic Study Manual. This book was not long-winded, esoteric or complex. It was quite the opposite. The simplicity of the writings, and the information contained therein, completely changed the way I studied. Since I have applied the information my ability to study, as well as my affinity for studying, has greatly improved." —T.S., Age 17
