After a long time off from school, it can be difficult to get back into the swing of things!

Tutoring is free and can meet on your schedule, and student support services are available to help with many kinds of resources for every kind of student!

 Here are four tips for our Central Piedmont fam that may help you get back into your academic groove. (Watch our Instagram reel with these tips.)

1. Eat a good breakfast- Give yourself some time in the morning to eat a good balanced meal. We know it is hard getting out of bed some days, but eating a balanced breakfast may help give you energy to face the day.

2. Get to class early and get organized- Set the tone for your semester to show yourself and your instructor that you are ready to succeed in their class. Organization is the key to a clear mind! Read the syllabus and prepare your calendar for what’s to come.

3. Create a study plan- This plan will help with your scheduling and organization. Look at your syllabus and assignment list and mark your calendars for when you want to do homework or study through the week.

4. Schedule in some fun- Do not get overwhelmed with the back to school blues. schedule some social time in between study time and tests. This gives you things to look forward to, in between times you’re focusing on school.
