Academic Coaching is a relatively new modality in the field of Learning Assistance. It is not tutoring or counseling, rather it is a modality that provides students with key information and strategies to identify, manage, and reach their goals. Academic coaching is rooted in the development of a proactive relationship between a student and a coach who provides the student with structure, support and feedback.

This program offers workshops and tutoring for undergraduate and graduate students seeking to improve their skills in content-specific social sciences and humanities subject areas. We can provide weekly, or one-time, individual appointments with a tutor, and we also offer walk-in tutoring sessions for social sciences and humanities courses. Drop-in tutoring hours vary by semester and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is an academic assistance program that utilizes peer-assisted study sessions. SI sessions are regularly scheduled, informal review sessions in which students compare notes, discuss readings, develop organizational tools, and predict test items. Students learn how to integrate course content and study skills while working together.

Writing tutors are available to support Lehman students with writing for any class, as well as projects outside of class, such as creative work or cover letters.  Undergraduate and graduate students are welcome.  You do not need a completed draft to meet with a writing tutor.  Whether you’re just getting started or revising a draft, we’re eager to support you in your process.
