Case Study #4


Failing class can happen to almost any student no matter how strong or weak a student they maybe. Many campuses have different resources available to help these students. One of Butler's best resources is their learning lab that offers free tutoring sections to help students. No previous scheduled time is required to get help in every subject offered. If study habits are a problem for him then enrolling in an independent study class to learn study habits as well as test taking skills to do better in class. A visit to the registrars office is the quickest way to get into one of these classes. Depending upon what class he is failing and what book the teacher is using; some text books have their own web sites that offer help. From practice problems, to solutions, to Q & A pages, some text books can offer extra help too. But the quickest way to get help is to just ask the teacher questions. Whether you ask in class or after, or even in an e-mail the teacher is almost always happy to help in any way possible to help you succeed.

My name is Rachel Moore and I am from Olathe, Kansas. I came to Butler to play volleyball. I still have no idea what I want to major in but right now I am listed as pre-med. Last year I thought I wanted to do something medical but now I am begining to wonder if I might actually want to look for other ideas.
