The WLLC Student Success Peer Learning Workshop Series kicks off its spring workshops at 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 18, in the World Languages and Digital Humanities Studio, located in JBHT 207. The spring series is composed of two one-hour, student-led workshops on April 18 and 25, focusing on how to successfully study world languages and cultures. The previous Peer Learning Workshops were held in fall 2022.

Each workshop is designed for undergraduate students to share their knowledge and helpful tips with other students who are studying a world language. Student workshop leaders have been working with Student Success coaches Claudia Devich, instructor of German and Italian; Louise Cole, instructor of Spanish; and Curtis Maughan, director of the World Languages and Digital Humanities Studio, to create their presentations to share with fellow Razorbacks.

Below is the complete schedule for the fall Peer Learning Workshop Series. All workshops will begin at 6 p.m. on the designated day and will be held in J.B. Hunt Center room 207. Dinner will be provided.
