About Guided Studies

The Guided Studies Department at Northeast College provides opportunities for students to upgrade their basic reading and study skills in order to maximize their chances of success in college level courses.  The department offers classes for both native and non-native students who demonstrate a need for remediation in these areas based on their ASSET scores.

The Department’s mission is to help students become more independent, confident and efficient learners so that they are better able to meet HCCS’s academic standards and successfully attain their own educational goals.  The Guided Studies Department also promotes goal setting, self worth, positive attitudes and value clarification to aid students in becoming contributing members of society and gaining personal satisfaction.  To achieve these goals, the Department will provide

  • Student assessment to ensure proper placement

  • A tailored program of quality instruction

  • Tutoring services as needed

  • Accommodations for students with learning disabilities

  • An introduction to career counseling

  • Evaluation of student success

Courses in reading focus on key reading skills with an emphasis on critical reading, reading comprehension, study reading strategies, and critical thinking to prepare students for the demands of college-level coursework.  Study skills courses are designed to orient students to college services and programs, help them explore career development, and assist them in improvement of specific learning skills.
