What to Expect at ASC

About ASC Sessions

  • • ASC offers individual or small-group consulting sessions to help you with coursework, study skills, writing, or exam prep.
  • • Each session pairs you with a trained student consultant who supports learning and understanding — not just doing the work for you.

Step What Happens / What You Should Do
1
Greeting & Overview
The consultant welcomes you and asks what you want to work on (assignment, concept, exam prep, study plan, etc.)
2
Understanding & Discussion
You explain the problem or question — consultant helps you break it down, asks guiding questions, clarifies concepts.
3
Strategy & Work-through
Consultant guides you through problem solving, notes, brainstorming, writing structure or study strategies — you actively participate.
4
Wrap-up & Next Steps
Consultant summarizes what you’ve learned, gives recommendations or study plan, and you note what to do next.
5
Follow-Up / Homework
You take what you learned back to class/homework — consultants help teach, not do the final work for you.

What You Should Bring

  • • Bring your course materials, assignment instructions, exams, notes, or anything you need help with.
  • • Bring a notebook or laptop if you’ll take notes or work on assignments.
  • • Be ready to participate actively — sessions are about helping you learn, not doing your work.

After Your Session — What to Do

  • • Review the notes and recommendations from the session.
  • • Work on the assignment / study plan on your own.
  • • Practice what you learned — that's how you get better.
  • • If needed, book another session (within your weekly limit) or ask a consultant for follow-up guidance.
