If you are having difficulty or find you are struggling with homework, assignments, or studying for tests the Student Academic Learning Services also known as SALS is a great place to help you accomplish your goals. As a student at Durham College you are eligible to register for a peer tutor, have 15 hours of tutoring per subject (which you are allowed 2 per semester), and only costs you $5 for registration fees. SALS also offers workshops throughout the semester to help students, if you cannot make it to a workshop or it is full you can make an appointment, and you can even ask for a workshop yourself. At the SALS centre they try to provide a quiet and productive learning environment in hopes to ensure students reach their maximum learning potential. They also have various learning tools or guides posted available for your use such as tips sheets, outlines, and bibliography or works cited help sheets. SALS is full of great resources and their most valuable resource would be the people there to help.
