Academic supports available as midterms approach
As midterms approach, we
thought it might be helpful to
remind you about the variety of
academic supports available outside
of the help you are receiving
from the faculty. These supports
are available to all students, not
just those who are struggling.
The Learning Centre located in A2019 has dedicated staff to help students with study skills, writing, ESL, math, physics and chemistry. Students can drop in to get help with homework in a supportive environment or make appointments for one-on-one help. There are study skills workshops throughout the semester, or students can make an appointment to get individual help with their study habits.
Peer Tutoring is offered by successful students who want to help other students be successful too. To find out more information about peer tutors, visit www.fanshawec. ca/counselling. If you find you are doing really well and want to be a peer tutor for another student, you can drop your application off at F2010.
Student Success Advisors work directly with students, usually oneon- one, to provide a range of services to ensure their success. They also work directly with students to ensure they are in the correct program and assist with course selection. In addition, they will provide strategies and techniques that will help move students towards completion of their program and on their way to employment. In certain cases, a student will be referred to another area or department to help with their situation.
Student success advisors are available to all students and not just for those experiencing academic difficulty. They work with various departments across the college, so they have a very good understanding of what students in that discipline need to do to excel and truly enjoy their Fanshawe experience. Students are assigned to their student success advisor by school. Visit www.fanshawec.ca/counselling to find the contact information for your advisor.
Students frequently comment that they were not aware they had access to such a wealth of services and supports. Please take the time to learn about the services and supports that you think might be helpful to you. We wish you great success on your midterms assessments this fall!
