RE: Academic Assistance with Durham Tech Classes

Dear Students: Ms. Navarro has asked me to follow up with any student who experienced difficulty in their Durham Tech classes last semester, and I will be contacting each of you individually in the next two weeks. However, I thought it would be useful for ALL OF YOU to be aware of academic support resources available to you through Durham Tech's Center for Academic Excellence. If you are struggling in one or more of your college classes, I strongly recommend the following: 1.  Talk with your college instructor and find out when he/she holds office hours.  Getting to know your instructor and receiving 1:1 assistance is always valuable. 2. The Center for Academic Excellence offers a schedule for drop-in tutoring in various subjects. Their schedule is available in the mail-box outside Ms. Brown's office (Bldg. 4, Rm. 121) 3. The Center for Academic Excellence also offers online tutoring through their Upswing progam.  In order to take advantage of this, you have to ...
