How to book a tutorial

We also have guides with videos that show attending tutorials, so you'll know what to expect.

You can chose how you want to meet when you book the tutorial and it will be confirmed in your student email.

We have a written guide to booking and attending a tutorial, or you can email learningdevelopment@northampton.ac.uk Please include your name, student number and course / module title.

You may be interested in a drop-in session, these are shorter sessions that will provide you with some quick guidance. There is no need to book for a drop-in, these are ideal if you have a question or want some quick advice.

The Skills Hub is also available, a useful resource containing advice and tips on a wide range of academic skills.
