“Ask and you Shall Receive: Getting help from the learning center
& disability services”
In our last webinar, we talked about the
difficulties that many new students face as they adjust to the more demanding
coursework and expectations of college. SPOILER ALERT: Writing a paper the
night before it’s due and skimming your notes right before an exam are not
effective strategies in college! But don’t worry—Rutgers-Camden has plenty of virtual
tutoring & learning support resources available to support your success. RJ
and Taryn from the Center for Learning and Student Success joined us to provide
all the information you’ll need to know, like scheduling tutoring sessions and
obtaining timely disability accommodations if you need them. Plus, we’ve got
one of our top-rated tutors, Victoria, as our guest speaker, to provide you
with some great advice from the student perspective about setting yourself up
for success and not being afraid to ask for help when you need it.
