Communication With Faculty & Staff

It can be intimidating to communicate with faculty and staff. You may not know how or what to share when you're struggling. Peer Academic Coaches can help you draft emails, make email templates, and prepare questions for office hours. All of this can help you feel confident advocating for yourself and making strong and lasting connections with faculty and staff.
