The class meets from
9:10 to 10:00 a. m. M-F.

Community members study elementary algebra while developing the strategies for success in college. They assess their learning styles, develop effective study habits, reduce test-taking anxiety, develop problem-solving skills, and create a system of study. The community supports student goals of success in college and in mathematics. The community includes the students, a mathematics instructor, a math study skills instructor, a visiting counselor, and a mathematics tutor.

What was the most useful part of the study skills section of the course?

"All of this was most helpful - math lab, tutors. Everything helped."

"All of it helped, but test taking strategies really helped. I don't panic any more."
