Academic Assistance at Learning Assistance Resources – Annex A
What’s available?
Drop-in assistance – every Wednesday 12:00 – 2:00 pm + Thursday 4:00 – 6:00pm
Bring your questions about course content, research, writing/editing essays, exam/critique prep and what ever else you find puzzling in your classes.
How about study groups?
Thanks for asking – we have those too! Organized on as-needed basis and run by students and for students
Incidentally, I am looking for volunteers to help themselves and other students in “running the show” and being part of this learning experience. You may gain a great set of solid skills by getting involved in a study group. Your grades will thank you! Your parents will thank you! You will feel all warm and fuzzy by helping other students in getting their grades up, too – guaranteed! The students will thank you!
From Study Group Leader to Volunteer Coordinator, Study Groups – possibilities are many! Besides, it looks really cool on your resume/CV as part of your professional experience.
Please get in touch with me if you wanted more information: paul.szymanowski@acad.ca
Who can access Learning Assistance Resources?
Services provided at LAR are available to ALL ACAD STUDENTS! From weekly Workshops, to Study Groups and Drop-in sessions – all our services are free of charge!
Some assistance will be best suited to 1st year or 2nd Year students. A number of International Students will find it particularly useful to come to Drop-in sessions or Study Groups.
Please ask me if you have any questions.
