Success Coaching
Power up your success at college!
Do you want help developing your academic skills?
Do you want to work on organization, time management, notetaking, exam preparation, goal-setting, or other academic skills and executive functioning skills?
Do you want advice on how to develop positive habits that will help you succeed?
Come to Success Coaching!
In a FREE Success Coach meeting over Zoom or in person, you can set goals, identify areas for growth, and create a customized plan for success. Success Coaches will send the student a Zoom link prior to the appointment time. Set the appointment up on Navigate.
PLEASE NOTE: Success Coaches are not tutors! If you need subject specific support for a class, please visit the Tutoring Center and see which classes and for when support is offered. If you need assistance editing, proofreading, or revising a paper for a class, please visit the Writing Center.
