While working on complex projects, you may be confronted with challenges for which you sometimes can't find answers on your own. Have you ever experienced a decrease in energy and motivation? Have you found yourself postponing tasks on your schedule or struggling to maintain focus, leading to an increase in stress? Or perhaps you're unsure where to start when seeking feedback from instructors?
Sometimes, it's reassuring to realize that you're not the only one who finds these situations challenging. That's why we organize weekly meetings where you can engage with Student+, an experienced study and job coach, and fellow students to discuss the issues that concern you. Together, we seek practical tips and strategies that can help you gain more control over your studies. The coaching sessions are interspersed with sessions that focus on topics such as procrastination, stress, feedback, and documentation.
Sign up or just come by on mondays between 11 AM and 12 PM in room TQ5-2.501.
