Study Skills make a Difference

I breezed though high school, so I thought I had it made in college. I soon found myself in college courses and overwhelmed with deadlines. I did not know how to bring up my grades.

I came to Huntington Learning Center in Chesapeake because I was on academic probation at Virginia Tech.

The tutors helped me with organization and study skills. We looked at many options for the Fall semester and how I could plan to bring up my grades. I learned how to create and organize my calendar to allow for class time, study time, and personal time. I also developed many strategies for studying and planning out projects according to the deadlines of the professors.

When I went back to campus, I kept in touch with my tutor. She sent me encouraging emails and texts and kept track of my progress in class.

I am happy to say that I made a 3.0 for the semester and I am no longer on academic probation!!! My tutors at Huntington Learning Center in Chesapeake gave me my confidence back. Thank you for your help
