What Makes LSE #TrulyLSE?

All of us at LSE are smart. Yet, we, for at least once, struggle with our studies.

Office hours last only 15 minutes and should be booked at least 1 week in advance?

Random selection in course registration?

We need to be #TrulyLSE – Leveraging Students’ Excellence.

We need more personalized, more frequent support, from grassroots level.

Developing a consistent student-to-student academic support system

• Academic mentoring from senior students/recent graduates to junior students in the same program in all taught programs.
• Teaching assistants in more courses at LSE.
• Teams of occasional student assistants speaking native languages of major groups of international students.

Curating and optimizing students’ academic development journey at LSE

• Personal questionnaires on students to determine appropriate support.
• Pre-sessional academic skills training for postgraduate students.
• More motivation-based course selection procedure.

Improving communications of academic support services

• Exclusive online community platform connecting all LSE staff and students.
• All-in-one app including all academic support and tracking personal development.

Experience:

• Studied and worked on student counselling and outreach projects in Vietnam, The Netherlands, Sweden and the UK.
• Ran a seasonal exam summary and tutoring service in Quantitative Analysis.
• Researching internal communications at LSE Department of Media and Communications.
