Learning Assistance Unit
Overview
Sometimes learning isn't as clear as you would like it to be and there are times when you will need a little extra assistance.
SIT's learning assistance team will assist you with your study skills including such areas as: academic reading, writing assignments or essays, maths, concentration, time management, exam techniques, memory skills, note taking and any other area of learning.
This is a free, confidential, and self-referred service. Sessions are normally done on a one to one basis but are sometimes in small groups, if required.
The Peer Tutoring Scheme is also available for students. If you are having difficulty with your programme content and want assistance, ask your tutor if it would be possible to have a peer tutor appointed to work with you.
