Are you a NEC student who is:

  • Having difficulty balancing work, home, and classes?
  • Having trouble understanding your course materials?
  • Wanting to improve your study skills and learning strategies?
  • Finding it confusing navigating your way around the ESC resources like MyESC and the Library? 

...then the Peer Coaching Program can help you find the strategies and resources you need to achieve your academic goals.

 

What is a Peer Coach?: A peer coach is an alumna/us or a current student (undergraduate or graduate) trained to guide and encourage other students in improving their academic performance and developing as life-long learners. 

  

What do Peer Coaches Do?:  Peer coaches assist students by focusing on enhancing general study skills, tutoring in specific content areas, navigating through college resources, and developing study strategies within their Areas of Study. 

 

Peer coaches work in both face-to-face and virtual environments.  They are trained by the staff of the NEC Office of Academic Support following internationally recognized certification standards set forth by the College Reading & Learning Association (CRLA) for peer tutors.  Peer Coaches work as volunteers, work-study, or practicum students.
