Academic Coaching Center
The Academic Coaching Center is committed to empowering Concordia University Irvine students as life-long learners by providing support services that will equip them with tools to achieve their academic goals. Our peer-directed academic coaching is offered free of charge.
Tutoring Services
Tutors (also referred to as Academic Coaches) provide the support needed to understand and explore course concepts and assignments in small group and one-one-one sessions. Schedule a tutoring session.
The Writing Studio
Writing Consultants support students in their development as writers and critical thinkers. In one-on-one sessions they provide feedback on papers for things like the strength of claims, quality of research and evidence integration, organization and structure, formatting, adherence to assignment and genre conventions. Schedule a Writing Studio session.
In addition, we partner with faculty and staff in offices such as Academic Advising, First-Year Experience, and the Disability and Learning Resource Center to encourage, inspire, motivate, and support the academic success of each student.
