STUDY SKILLS
You can develop academic skills by working regularly with a tutor on your coursework. With tutoring at the LAC, you can learn about different study skills and practice them with a tutor: time management, setting up study schedules, organizational strategies, lecture note-taking, test-taking and test-preparation skills.
If you are an undergraduate student and need to complete the Library Requirement (OASIS), you can find more information here.
There are other opportunities at SF State to learn new skills by attending short workshops, consulting study skills materials, or taking courses. If you're an EOP student, you may contact the EOP office (338-1085) for tutor availability for this subject.
