    Advising

    How are things going for you at the HTWG Konstanz? Are you feeling a bit unsure or confused about your studies? Could you use some advising or support? The team at the Student Advising Center provides confidential and competent advising services to help you navigate your way through your studies.

    Problems and Crises in Your Studies

    Studying can be a challenging time for students. The transition from high school to college is a big change in terms of work load. For many students it’s also their first time away from home – which can also lead to psychological problems. Fortunately there are many ways you can get help. Here is a list of some options: 

    Improving Study Skills

    • Difficulties with Exams
    • Constantly procrastinating with important tasks
    • Problems working and concentrating
    • Constantly feeling stressed
    • Test anxiety and fear of presentations
    • Difficulties working in study groups

     

    The Student Advising Center is here to support you in your learning process. Set up a confidential appointment with us to reflect on and learn how to better manage your learning challenges. We will help you activate your personal resources and overcome these learning blocks.
