Lyktan Study Support Centre, drop-in

In the waiting room you join an online queue until the instructor lets you into the tutoring room. You have to use your camera and microphone during the session.

While you are waiting, you can review the question you want to ask one more time. If you want to share material during the session, you can prepare by opening the document or files on your device. You should also check the waiting room chat, in case the instructor sends you a message while you are waiting.

If you write together with another student, tell the instructor and both of you will be let into the tutoring room together. Writing partners do not have to sit together physically or use the same computer, just visit the Zoom room at the same time and let us know.  

During the tutoring session, only you, your writing partner (if you have one), and the instructor are in the Zoom room. Nobody else can see your text or hear what you discuss. A drop-in session is just 15 mins long, so come prepared. 

At the start of the session, you tell the instructor what you need help with and then you receive tutoring based on your question. Both you and the instructor can share screens with each other. 

We help you to help yourself. This means that we try to answer your questions, show you how you can improve your text, search strategy, etc., and give you some tools to continue working on your own.
