Learning Well in First Year
Learning Well in First Year will run in Winter 2026 as three in-person evening workshops on January 21, January 28 and February 4.
Get off to a good start in your second semester. Learn practical ways to learn better, stress less, and meet other first-year students who get what you’re going through.
Learning Well in First Year will help you:
- Reflect on your first semester to set realistic and achievable goals for academic success.
- Discover proven study skills to manage the new challenges of university learning, limit burnout, and become an effective learner at U of T.
- Use your academic resilience to manage procrastination and stay motivated this semester.
Open to UTSG undergraduate students in their first year of study.
Learning Well in First Year is part of the Academic Resilience Initiatives at the Centre for Learning Strategy Support on the University of Toronto’s St. George campus.
