At the beginning of Term 2, the Student Learning Hub operates pop-up learning support to help you get back in the groove and break through that beginning-of-term haze. Fresh Start for Term 2 runs January 7, 8, and 9 from 11-1 on the first floor of the library.
Back-To-Basics
Feel fuzzy on high school math and science concepts? Forget how to factor? Feel lost without your calculator? Reboot your memory and refresh your skills with Back-to-Basics review sessions.

Back-to-Basics is a series of tutor-led review sessions that will help you relearn those important math concepts and get prepared for your first year science courses. Join us for a session, or two, or three, and get Back-to-Basics.
