Peer Supported Learning Common Hour Study Group

Common Hour Study Group (CHSG) sessions are large group tutoring sessions facilitated by The Study Hub's veteran peer tutors. The Study Hub works with current course faculty to prepare practice problems that are representative of what students can expect to see on the exam.   

The Study Hub has found students who attend both drop-in peer tutoring as well as CHSG sessions, on average, do better in their course than those who attend only CHSG sessions. Therefore, we strongly encourage students to also access our free peer tutoring services early and often! 

When coming to CHSG, students can expect to work collaboratively with other students in the same course. Peer tutors will use practice problems to guide students through exam concepts and will also address any specific questions students may have about topics on the exam as well as best ways to prepare. 

In addition to Common Hour Study Groups, students may also benefit from these other Transformative Learning services:
