Midterm Conferences

It's that time of the year again.  

Mid-semester grades are being configured. This is a friendly reminder to all students to stop in and visit with your instructors. If you haven't been doing well in your classes, now is the time to kick it up a notch. See what you need to do in order to get the grade that you expect.

As I mentioned before, meeting with your teacher is a great way to show that you are conscientious about your work and want to succeed in college. Teachers notice students who work hard to succeed and are more willing to work with you.

Conferencing is proven to be an effective tool in education.
Teachers-- there's a lot of information out there on the web about effective ways to conference with your students. Encourage students to stop by your office. Be sure to remind them where it's located and when your office hours are.

  1. I used to have a Google maps link to my office for those students who would say they couldn't find my office. Just thought I'd tell you that story.
