The Learning Center
is
primarily a program for students in the Women's College of Brenau University who
have diagnosed learning disabilities, attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder, or any other disability. The program is designed for
students with average to superior academic ability, high motivation, and a
desire for more personalized education.
Brenau is a great college for
students with learning disabilities. Residential and commuting
students have all the advantages of a small liberal arts college...smaller
classes with faculty focused on students' success.
The Learning Center provides students with
structure and support needed to be successful. Students in the
program attend regular college classes, benefit from a structure learning
environment, enjoy the freedom associated with college living, and become
involved in campus activities. Tutoring is fee-based, currently
$900.00 per semester per course. Upon request, one-hour education
support by a specialist is provided free of charge.
The Learning Center goes Wi-Fi!!!! |
Did you know?
The Learning Center offers fee-based
academic coaching to any Brenau student seeking to raise her GPA.
Academic coaching might address one subject or a senior thesis. Some Brenau
students may choose to come to the Learning Center for only one subject
their entire academic career. This choice may well serve as the
catalyst to remain in their major and become a superior graduate.
Evelyn Asher, Office Manager and Academic Coach participated in the
Sophomore Retreat held at The Burd Center for Performing Arts in April
2006.
Psychological testing is now available through the Brenau Center for Counseling and Psychological Services
770-297-5959.
Learning Center English tutors meet with
English faculty early in the fall semester to review academic goals and
discuss different learning styles.
