It's common for students who breezed through their classes in high school to have a rough time keeping up with classes here at Tech. Luckily, there is still hope for those of us who don't want to settle for lower grades. The learning centers on campus are an excellent way for students to stay on top of classes. We can sign up for weekly sessions to study with a team, or we can get help from a coach.
Students even get credit for going to the learning center.
When a student feels lost in a class, these are great places to go for help. Most of the coaches in the learning centers are students, so they are good at explaining the subject matter to students in a way that most professors can't do in a lecture hall. Learning Centers are offered for biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, math, and physics courses. MTU also has a writing center where students can get help with proofreading, papers, resumes, research, and English as a foreign language. Finally, there is a modern language lab, which offers many forms of media to enhance the learning experience of a foreign language course.
