What is Peer Assisted Learning?

The Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Centre is the place to develop effective learning strategies and get free, one-to-one, course-specific help. Western and Affiliate University College students are welcome. Help is provided by Learning Peers who are trained, upper-year Western students who have excelled academically, and are ready to help you SUCCEED.  

 

How Do I Access the PAL Centre?

The PAL Centre offers in-person help in the Western Student Services Building and the Weldon Library Community Room. The PAL Centre operates during the academic year (September - April) and will reopen in September 2025.
