What is Academic Peer Coaching?
Academic Peer Coaching is a personalized, one-on-one service designed to help you
achieve your academic goals. Peer Coaches are trained fellow students who work collaboratively
with you to develop strategies for academic success.

Peer Coaches understand the student experience because they’ve been there themselves. They provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space to share your challenges and create actionable plans for improvement.
Review your course expectations and make a plan of the term requirement. The key point is to review and assess so you are on track and prepared for the term.
Hybrid classes are not all structured the same way. You need to review your syllabi and plan for your time at least until your first exams.
The Individualized Academic Success Plan will help you create a calendar. Include due dates, scheduled exams, and any required activities for all courses. Keep track of everything—you don't want any surprises. Add D2L class time, reading, working on assignments and group projects. Don't forget library time, homework, and study/review time.
Distractions are everywhere! And no, you can't multitask effectively.
Develop a routine. A good routine includes breaks and stop points as well as goals and tasks. The Study Cycle is 60 minutes for a reason. This stuff works. When you are "in class" try to ignore email, television, video games and so on.
Availability
Peer Coaching sessions are available weekdays on both campuses to accommodate your
schedule.
