Who else will help me learn ?

There is a variety of staff working in universities and they will have different titles depending on the university.

Lecturers or tutors give you information about your course, support your learning, mark your work, and make sure that you are coping within your course and with student life generally. For distance learning courses, tutors may support your learning via phone, letter or e-mail.

Universities also have libraries and information and communication technology centres with staff trained to help you.

Two students discuss work at a table.
Both tutors and fellow students help you to learn.
