Uli
Hi, I’m Uli and I’m a third year Bachelor of Science student, majoring in Maths (plus a bit of Physics). I’ve previously dabbled in Life Sciences and Arts, so I’m a generalist concerning academic advice and can guide you to the right resource for most academic issues. As I migrated to this country myself, I know a little about feeling on the outside. Mostly I love studying at UNE, and try to share the enthusiasm and fun, despite (and also because) of the challenges it involves. No question too small or big, from ...”how do I find my unit on myLearn and what’s those weird icons” to “...so what do I do now! ?” I can help you with:
- Access and Inclusion (getting help, e.g. special assessment conditions) for neurodivergences, disabilities, chronic conditions and short-term troubles
- research and assignment skills
- navigating myLearn, the Library and the ASO
- LGBTQIA+ friendly
- study tips and skills
- Can’t help you with Excel, I’m hopeless, sorry.
Carla
Hi, I'm Carla, a Bachelor of Arts student majoring in Ancient Religions within the Humanities. I explore the sacred rituals, mythologies, and spiritual traditions of ancient cultures—it's like academic time travel with extra incense. As a Peer Academic Mentor, I can help you:
- Navigate myLearn, the Library, and UNE systems
- Find the ASO’s referencing guides (especially for Chicago style!)
- Break down assignment questions into manageable parts
- Get started with research and stay on track
I'm all about helping students feel more confident, less overwhelmed, and maybe even a little enchanted by the material. If you're in the Humanities and feeling a bit lost, I’ve got you.
