Online Tutoring Worksheets & Videos
Our Academic Support Programs team maintains a Canvas page to provide you with topic-specific worksheets and videos designed to help in historically-challenging courses here at UNF. Each worksheet has multiple practice problems to work through that start off easy but get more and more advanced to questions similar to what you might see on an exam.
Worksheets are available for the following courses:
- Business: Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Operations Management
- Chemistry: General Chemistry 1 & 2, Organic Chemistry 1 & 2
- Languages: French, Spanish
- Math: College Algebra, Precalculus, Calculus 1, 2, & 3, Ordinary Differential Equations, Linear Algebra
- Statistics: Elementary Statistics, Probability and Statistics
- Physics: Intro to Physics, Calculus Physics 1 & 2, Algebra Physics 1 & 2
Individual Appointments
One-on-one guidance is available for students looking for new techniques and strategies through the Peer Coaching program. For more information, please visit the Coaching page.
Group Workshops
In addition to one-one-one appointments, SASS Peer Coaches also hold group workshops every week on a variety of topics including study habits, time management, note-taking, rebounding from midterms and preparing for finals.
