Academic Coaching & Tutoring Center

Do you want to enhance your in-class learning? Would you prefer to study smarter, not harder? Do you wish you had taken better notes? The Academic Coaching and Tutoring Center (ACTC) can help you with your Academic enhancement journey. The ACTC is open to all students.

The ACTC provides:

  • Individual tutoring, drop-in sessions, and review sessions
    • You can receive tutoring from a fellow student who excelled in the course(s) you are requesting.
    • Peer tutors help fellow students develop the skills they need to succeed as independent learners. They model effective strategies and methods for approaching challenging course material.
    • Make a tutoring appointment through the Student Navigate App.
  • Academic coaching and workshops
    • We will learn about your learning styles, study habits, and difficulties so we can help you succeed.
    • We will also assist you in enhancing your academic skills and help you build your confidence and connect you to valuable resources.
    • You will learn motivation, discipline, transition, communication, study and test-taking strategies, and time and energy management.
    • Make an academic coaching appointment through the Student Navigate App.
