Academic Coaching
We provide Academic Coaching under the premise that doing well in school is a skill that can be learned and improved upon. Academic Coaching assists you to develop important strategic learning skills that are helpful to remaining competitive at R-N.

Sample topics may include but are not limited to: Note Taking, Effective Study Techniques, Test Taking, Time Management, and Stress Management.
Supplemental Instruction
Supplemental instruction is an internationally recognized program developed at the University of Missouri at Kansas City. It begins when a course professor and the RLC select a high achieving student who was previously successful in a given course. The RLC then trains this student to lead out-of-class small group sessions for students who are currently taking the course. Sessions are focused on how to best apply learning strategies to do well in the course.

LD/ADD/ADHD Screenings
We conduct Learning Disabilities(LD) and Attention Deficit Disorders/Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders(ADD/ADHD) screenings for students wishing to obtain documentation or update their existing documentation. Screenings can be completed in as little as forty-five minutes. LD screening information is sent to the New Jersey Special Needs Regional Centers for Comprehensive Learning Disabilities Services (RCCLDS) located on the Jersey City University Campus. RCCLDS staff will contact you directly for diagnostic testing at a reduced fee. ADD/ADHD information is sent to R-N’s Psychological and Counseling Services. Staff there will contact you directly for additional consultation and to make determination of screening results.
Students with updated diagnoses and documentation of disability who expect to request accommodations from the University should contact Nelitha Wilson-Michael, American Disabilities Act Coordinator, (973) 353-5374.
