If you are finding an assignment difficult, or want to discuss your learning, one-to-one tuition is available at Student Learning Support. This tuition is confidential. These appointments are free to Victoria students and available all year when the University is open. Appointments are 50 minutes long. In order to get the appointment time you want, make your appointment 4 or 5 days ahead.
