Academic Support Quick Resources

As busy adult students, meeting live with a Learning Coach might not always work with your schedule. The Academic Support Open Educational Resources (OERS) are quick videos and interactive tools designed to help you refresh or further develop college level academic skills. These easy to use resources often allow you to decide whether all or just part of a topic meets your need. For additional academic support resources, such as tutoring and live workshops, please visit MyESC Academic Support or email academic.support@esc.edu.
