Hi everyone! My name is Julianne Reynolds and I am a Peer Tutor here at the Learning Center. I'm a rising senior from Chapel Hill majoring in Biology with minors in Chemistry and Medical Anthropology. I primarily tutor chemistry courses and I love my job because I get to see students grow in confidence and develop skills that they can use beyond our sessions! Outside of tutoring, I enjoy going on runs, listening to live music, and trying new restaurants around Chapel Hill. I look forward to seeing you at the Learning Center!⁠

“As a college student, you spend so much time worrying about assignments that it is vital to have spaces where you can express yourself and develop creative energy. For me, that happened in the a ca****la world, but it can take place in any kind of space and commitment level that you need!”⁠

Hi! I’m Lily, a senior majoring in Economics and Political Science. I tutor a variety of economics, math, and German courses here at the Learning Center. My favorite subject to tutor is economics, and I love connecting with other students while helping them build confidence and succeed in their classes!

Taking breaks during studying is a common strategy to reduce mental fatigue, but not all breaks are created equal! It may temporarily feel good to scroll on your phone for a few minutes in-between assignments, but this is actually far less effective than taking a walk, meditating, or socializing because it still requires decision making that overloads the prefrontal cortex. 🧠⁠

Effective breaks give you distance from work-related thoughts and leave you feeling more refreshed. Even breaks as short as a minute, if they are effective breaks, can improve your performance and productivity when you return to what you were working on! 💪⁠

To learn more about taking effective breaks, check out our "Taking Breaks" handout (https://learningcenter.unc.edu/tips-and-tools/taking-breaks/) or make an academic coaching appointment at learningcenter.unc.edu! 📚
