Peer Academic Coaching
The Peer Academic Coaching program provides individual and group support to help students set and achieve goals and develop behaviors, habits, and strategies for college success and life. Our trained staff of Peer Academic Coaches (PACs) are students just like you who want you to feel more confident and empowered.
Common Reasons to Work with a PAC
Here are just a few common reasons students work with Peer Academic Coaches (PACs):
- You are struggling to make and keep a study schedule. We can help you make schedules and plan out your weeks.
- You don’t feel like your reading, note-taking, or study strategies are as effective as they could be. We can share research-based strategies that are more efficient than what most students do.
- You are troubleshooting ways to motivate yourself to study or complete homework. We can provide tips and strategies for motivating yourself.
- You work better when someone else is present. We can body double and be there with you as you work.
- To be clear, PACs are not enrollment specialists or advisors! We do not help with enrollment, course planning, or degree planning. We’re here to support you while you are enrolled in and attending classes.
Location and Hours
The PACs are available for drop-in and appointment-based support at the Wingspan: Center for Learning and Writing on the 4th floor of Anschutz Library and virtually via Zoom.
