Yellowhead Tribal College promotes student support by teaching various success strategies and learning methods for student achievement. We want to encourage our students to connect with us to benefit by adding more tools to their academic tool kit. I can help provide insight and understanding in areas students may find challenging. It is important to remember all students can learn how to learn, we can work together to create a learning plan and tailor strategies that will be of best fit.
Some areas of challenge that I can help with include:
- Planning and organization;
- Studying and note taking;
- Test prep/test anxiety;
- Motivation and time management;
- Goal setting;
- Reading and writing; and,
- Accepting help, etc.
