Don't be afraid of exam time

When exams loom at the end of the semester, many first-year students feel doubly stressed: they not only have to master the material from the previous semester, but often also cope with exam anxiety, procrastination, and learning difficulties. Exam coaching supports students in managing their exam-related challenges. In addition to individual consultations, they can also attend workshops. Self-study materials are also available.

Exam coaching supports students in successfully completing their studies and helps with learning difficulties, time management problems, or exam anxiety. It proactively focuses on the start of university studies. The goal is to equip all students with methods and techniques right from the beginning of their studies, but also to jointly examine their attitude and mindset in order to deal with typical organizational and motivational challenges encountered during their studies.

In acute crisis situations, students can access individual coaching services. These services primarily focus on helping students navigate their studies independently and developing or compensating for any gaps in their study management skills. To ensure this service is available to a large number of students, both individual and group sessions are offered in various settings (digital, hybrid, and in-person formats). Exam coaching supports students, taking their educational backgrounds into account, to enable them to succeed independently and autonomously within the university system.
