Study support

Student Learning Advisers

Student Learning Advisers (SLAs) are experienced students who offer peer support to other students. They can help you with your course, assignment or exam preparation questions. As the SLAs are business students they will understand your concerns and questions, and have the experience and ability to answer them. SLAs are available to both undergraduate and postgraduate students.

Our professional Learning Advisers provide academic support across all disciplines for both undergraduate and postgraduate students. They can give you guidance in:

  • explaining task descriptions in plain English
