Student Academic Success

Student Academic Success (SAS) provides learning and language support to all Monash students through individual advising, workshops, and online resources.

What our students say

Build my confidence

"Thanks to you I have learned it is okay to make a small constant effort every day and try to join the discussion (just speak a few words) and to tell my concerns. It will lead me to grow up and have confidence little by little."

Deal with pressure

"I still remember my first consultation with you. I almost cried at the time since I had lots of pressure. Now I have completed all my units for the semester. I still feel very lucky to have met you."

Learn from feedback

"This is by far the most detailed feedback I've received at Monash, and it is very helpful. I learned a lot from it. Also, thank you for seeing something in me and encouraging me to be better. Your support means a lot to me."
