Academic Assistance

  • Have you talked to your teacher?

    Talking to your teacher should be your first step if you are having trouble understanding what is being taught. 

    • Ask your teacher to reteach the concept to just you
    • Ask a friend to explain the concept to you
    • Ask another teacher to explain the concept - Sometimes someone else can explain it differently, so we can understand
    • Watch an online lesson and follow it step by step
    • Visit the counselor to get advice on how to fix your problem
