Academic Coaching
Academic coaches are available to meet with students in the Academic Success Lab and the Beeler Family Athletic Center. Coaching is free of charge for UE students.
Who are Academic coaches?
Academic coaches are upper-level students with a proven track record of academic success. They have a genuine interest in helping their peers achieve similar success. Academic coaches have been provided with resources and support to help them coach their peers toward reaching their goals. They continue to build these skills through training activities and active interaction with students on a case by case basis.
How can they help?
Academic coaches are trained to help meet the unique needs of each student. They offer resources in aspects of the academic journey, including time management, study skills, note taking, and test preparation. They help their peers with school/life balance, stress management, organization, and generally navigating the challenges that can come with the college experience. Students are encouraged to meet regularly with academic coaches and develop a peer-to-peer relationship to help them navigate the college experience.
