Peer Success Mentors

The Peer Success Mentors are available to guide their peers toward academic success through one-on-one appointments to discuss study habits, set academic goals and develop effective learning strategies and digital skills. Appointments are made through the TLC appointment system. We are offering mostly in person mentoring in TLB2, the TLC's Writing Center, but can use Zoom video conferencing to connect mentors and mentees online.

To request a class visit from a Peer Success Mentor, please complete our brief TLC Class Visit Request form.
