Partner with an Academic Coach*
Academic coaching is a personalized student-coach partnership with appointments tailored to your needs. Meetings may include discussing organization and time management skills, note-taking tips, and test-taking strategies. Watch the brief video below on how easy it is to schedule appointments with an Academic Coach through Starfish.

Reading Coaching
Reading Coaching provides students with personalized support to strengthen their reading skills. Coaches work with students on their course reading, helping them identify strengths and challenges. They share strategies for tackling challenging texts, offer time management techniques specific to reading tasks, support vocabulary development, and guide students in problem-solving approaches for future readings. To meet with a Reading Coach, you can "raise your hand" in Starfish or schedule your own appointment through Starfish by choosing the Reading Coach service - how-to video coming soon!

English Language Learner Tutoring
English Language Learner (ELL) tutors work with students to help them learn and develop English language skills, such as reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Students whose first language is not English can schedule appointments to meet with an ELL tutor in person at the Providence campus, Newport campus, or online. ELL tutoring is scheduled through Starfish. For questions or assistance with scheduling an appointment, please visit your campus Tutoring Center or email tutoring@ccri.edu.
