Peer mentors are academic coaches who work with students on all things academic! Personalized meetings address what you are experiencing in your classes, while studying, and as a student. Meet with an academic mentor weekly or as needed to improve your study skills. Most students benefit from working on:
- Time management
- Organization
- Studying for and taking exams
- Problem solving approaches
- Notetaking skills
- Reading skills
- Canvas analysis
- Syllabi analysis
- Online portal learning tools
Academic mentors are available by appointment or through our drop-in hours at Smith Hall (second floor). To schedule an appointment with a mentor of your choice, visit our CFAR calendar (first step will be to create an account).
