Faculty support
If you're looking to develop your academic skills and enhance your uni work, our learning support tutors can help. Each faculty has a team of staff with the knowledge and expertise to give you the right support when you need it. Some faculties offer additional support with things like impartial advice and extenuating circumstances.
Tutors can offer you guidance to improve your current skill set or develop new skills relevant to your course. You can work with tutors in bookable 1-to-1 sessions, small group tutorials, drop-in sessions and group skills workshops.
