One-to-one skills support

Meet with one of our Academic Support Team and get help with academic skills and research for your coursework, essay or dissertation.

Academic Services Librarians can help with finding quality academic information for your University assignments and understanding how reference information sources in your academic work.

Academic Skills Tutors can give you advice and guidance about particular academic study issues. For example, you may show a draft  of your work to a tutor who could advise on matters relating to the structure of your essay, how critically you write, how you draw on academic sources in your writing, and how you reference those sources, etc.

To make an appointment, please use our online booking system.

Workshops

Our workshops are free and run throughout term time on a range of topics designed to equip you with the skills needed for academic success.
