Using Microsoft Teams

For your convenience, we can also conduct coaching appointments via Microsoft Teams. We recommend that you install the Microsoft Teams application to the device you plan to use for the appointment. However, the coach with whom you schedule will also send you an e-mail confirmation which will contain an invitation link. You may simply click on the invitation link in that email and join the meeting via the web application. You can e-mail the coach directly if you have any questions or difficulty with connecting.

What Our Students Say

“My experience with the academic success coach was a very helpful and easy way for me to get back on track with my academics. Going to sit down and talk to someone who was open to hear anything I had to say was a great way for me to achieve my goals, make the right decisions, and learn new study skills for the future. It overall helped me become a better student as I was introduced to helpful material that I never knew and I greatly appreciate all the help they provided me.”

- Conner S., Freshman, UNG Oconee Campus

“I found it really difficult to navigate college for the first time. I felt completely lost and overwhelmed. I sought out every opportunity available to me looking for support. I’m so thankful that I found (my academic coach). She’s been a tremendous support system for me, so encouraging and helpful. She’s been a key element in my academic success and I’m so appreciative to have her on the team.”

- Desarae V., Freshman, UNG Gainesville Campus

“Coaching...has made the shift from high school to college so much easier. Without the meetings I’ve had with (my coach), this transition would’ve been much more difficult.”

- Anyrhi M., Freshman, UNG Gainesville Campus
