What if students have difficulty in a course?
The best source of information for help with a specific course is the instructor. Faculty members, assistant instructors and teaching assistants maintain office hours and are usually willing to assist students at other times by appointment. Students who want to improve their learning and study skills may also be interested in the services offered by the UT Learning Center (UTLC). The UTLC offers free tutoring on a drop-in basis for many entry-level courses in calculus, chemistry and physics. One-on-one tutoring is available for most large, entry-level courses. The UTLC also offers free, individualized Peer Academic Coaching in a variety of academic skills and graduate-level writing assistance. Learning Specialists are available on a walk-in or appointment basis for a variety of academic interests or concerns, including learning strategies, test anxiety, goal setting, preparation for graduate exams, reading speed and efficiency.
