The Academic Tutoring Center (ATC) has adopted new regulations to provide better assistance for students, after inefficient handling in previous years.
The ATC has extended tutoring sessions to one hour, and students can now access up to two sessions per week, with a third session available for thesis-related work.
Dr. Angel Hoekstra, director of AAU’s Center for Teaching and Learning, described the tutors as, “a great group of bright, motivated, intelligent women who are committed to helping AAU students.”
All tutoring sessions will be conducted in person, with additional location options available across campus and in Prague. One of the biggest changes is the requirement to submit materials at least 24 hours before the appointment, allowing tutors to tailor materials for each session.
AAU’s webpage for current students includes a section for booking and contacting the ATC. More information regarding the tutors, their availability, and specializations are available at simplybook.me.
Tracking systems have also been implemented to monitor booking habits and manage cancellations and tardiness.
To raise awareness about the ATC and other support services for students, AAU is launching student success workshops to improve academic and personal achievement. More information can be found on the ATC website or by contacting Dr. Angel Hoekstra.
