The University of East London is committed to supporting student success. As an institution we have a number of resources at our disposal to improve each student’s experience and enhance their potential for success. When we talk about the student journey and experience, we are considering every part of it from initial contemplation and selection of a UEL programme, through Clearing and Induction, and then progress through our programmes.
The Language Centre is part of the International Office and is based at both our Campuses. The Language Centre currently offers a service to all students to provide diagnostic testing and help for all students who are identified to need additional support in using written and spoken English in their academic studies was agreed.
The Skillzone is an additioinal service for students, providing additional support in key areas such as essay writing, researching and IT skills. At the Skillzone, students can work with expert tutors or use a variety of self-study methods to learn in their own time. Students have free access to a wide range of services and materials for successful study, including books, software, leaflets, one-to-one tutorial help and specialist workshops. The Skillzone can also provide students with advice in areas such as careers and information and guidance for students with Dyslexia
The UEL Skills Curriculum has been designed to ensure that students are taught, have the opportunity to practice, and are assessed in Skills for: Academic Learning, Employability (Professional Practice) and Research. These Skills are developed within the context of the student's programme of study. Our Skills Curriculum is based on best practice identified through analysis of provision at other HEIs, information and resources provided by The Academy and effective practice within our own institution.
