Study Skills
While at NECC, do not hesitate to stop by any of our Academic Support Centers: Math Lab, Reading Lab, Writing Lab, or English Language Center. The staff members in the Academic Support Centers are able to provide assistance with a variety of issues students may have, and may be able to connect students with peer tutors.
In addition, we have put together these links that can help you improve your study techniques, note-taking skills and hopefully become more prepared in the classroom.
