Academic skills coaching
Because we could all use an academic upgrade from time to time
Does any of this sound familiar?
- Time management: Too many assignments, not enough time
- Course load: Lectures feel overwhelming or hard to keep up with
- Midterms/Exams: Your mind goes blank during tests or exams
- Focus & motivation: Procrastination keeps getting in the way
- Academic performance: You didn’t do as well as you hoped on a test
- Improvement: You’re doing okay — but you know you could do better
If any of these resonate with you, it might be time to strengthen your academic skills.
Learning how to learn is a lifelong process. The skills that helped you succeed in high school might not be working as well in your current studies. University is a very different world, so why wouldn’t your skills need to adapt?
To learn more, connect with Rotman Commerce’s dedicated Academic Advisor, Learning Strategies. Visit the Advising section on the RC Portal for details on how to book an Academic Skills Coaching session and access additional supports.
Before your first learning strategies appointment, please complete the following steps:
- Complete the “Meet with an RC Academic Advisor for a Learning Strategies Appointment” form to help us better understand your goals and tailor the session to your needs.
- Book your appointment through the MS Bookings page (which you’ll also find on the thank you page after submitting the form in step 1).
Take advantage of this opportunity to build strategies to help you get the most out of your Rotman Commerce experience. Develop productive study and learning habits, set realistic goals, and build on past academic successes through academic skills coaching. Don’t think of these sessions as just help with your studies, think of them as building life skills as you prepare for the future.
