Learning Support

We offer assistance to all students who wish to improve their academic learning skills. Issues dealt with include: 

• effective time management
• the art of taking an exam
• effective study reading
• effective learning from lectures
• managing exam anxiety
• dealing with procrastination

This assistance is offered in the following formats:

1. Individual appointments with a counsellor

2. Workshops that focus on the development of effective study skills and strategies

3. A small lending library of learning skills resources

4. A peer tutoring service whereby students may receive assistance with their course work from fellow-students who have already successfully completed the same courses. Because this service is subsidized, students are only required to pay a nominal hourly charge.
