In the Learning Advisory Program (LAP), individual and customized learning support is provided to learners through one-on-one/group sessions (via appointments), group sessions(at live sessions), and/or through written advising. Learners who would like to contact learning advisors may ask for an appointment or simply register for a scheduled session whenever they are available.
Needs analyses and background preparations were initiated in the 2014-2015 academic year and the program unit with active advisors was launched in the 2018-2019 academic year. Based on the findings obtained through local academic studies and current advising practices around the world, tools and materials were designed or adapted to better address learners’ needs and expectations. Learner feedback and advisor observations are carefully analysed to make further changes and adaptations in the program.
What kind of support can you get?
We offer learner support and guidance mainly in the following areas:
> Identifying learner-specific problems
> Dealing with complicated situations related to learning
> Dealing with stress and anxiety
> Ways to increase motivation
> Goal-setting
> Making a learning plan
> Deciding on the most appropriate learning strategies and techniques for each learner
> Time-management
> Recommending learning resources suitable for individual needs
It is important to keep in mind that the skills and learning strategies mentioned above are not only related to language learning, but they are necessary skills that one needs to gain for lifelong learning as well.
