The Sanger Learning and Career Center staff would appreciate your assistance in reminding students that the Peer Academic Coaching program is open to any student interested in receiving coaching from a trained UT student on how to prepare effectively for UT classes. Peer coaches are trained by learning specialists, and the program as a whole is certified by the College Reading and Learning Association. Common topics include note-taking and reading techniques,time management and concentration, and test-taking and test preparation. Participants can expect to learn how to match the ways in which they study to the unique demands of each course.
The cost is covered by the Sanger Learning and Career Center; potential participants should be open to trying new studytechniques and be willing to meet privately once a week for an hour with a peer coach. Participants are admitted to the program on a rolling basis, subject to coach availability.
Students can complete a participation request questionnaire in our main office (JES A115) or by going online to https://enroll.utlc.utexas.edu and clicking on “Academic Coaching – Get a Coach.”*
