Learning Center
Students are at the heart of everything we do at Piedmont College. This commitment is reflected in the Learning Center, established to help our students reach their academic goals. One student may endeavor to pass a particularly difficult course. Another may aspire to develop a B into an A. Whatever their objectives, students can find supportive, professional assistance at the Learning Center.
The Learning Center offers FREE academic support in many areas. We offer 1-1 tutoring in many content areas, including business, accounting, languages, math, science, and writing. Our 1-1 tutoring sessions are FREE and offered daily from 9am - 9pm with some weekend hours. Arrangements can also be made for remote, online tutoring sessions. Our tutors are referred by professors, trained in the art of tutoring, and monitored to provide the individualized attention our students need to achieve their personal best.
We also offer SNAP (Seeking New Academic Potential) groups for certain content area courses in Math and Science. These are peer-led small groups (8 or less) that follow an informal supplemental instruction model that focuses on collaboration and group study. Students are provided with course-specific learning and study strategies, note taking and test taking skills, as well as the opportunity for structured study time with peers.
In addition to working with you on specific subject areas, we can help with test taking, time management, organization, note-taking, and study skills and strategies. You may drop in and work with any tutor who is available or make an appointment with a specific tutor. We also work with students to create, implement and complete Academic Success Plans. These are individualized plan to assist students with obtaining the skills, knowledge, and support they need to be successful personally and academically.
Appointments can be made for Academic Consultations (with the Director of the Learning Center) or Tutoring Services through Pilgrim Net or through the Piedmont App.
