A friend of mine has a son that is returning to UT Austin in a couple of days for his last year of a difficult engineering program. He is one that needs the structure of going to class, living in the real three-dimensional world. At least that is what he vastly prefers, and it helps him have an optimistic mindset for college, which is his norm. The lack of in-person classes at UT after 2 years of the Pandemic has not been easy, too many distractions and opportunities for lack of focus. Anyway, I offered to try and find resources to help him focus on staying up with classes, not procrastinating, not getting distracted, sticking to good study habits, etc. Even tutoring resources for the first few weeks of his last semester, until in-person classes are the norm again. Are there people out there to help students keep on track, stay focused and accountable, and as a bonus, could help tutor engineering students? Obviously, this isn’t asking for a favor, just references to paid professional resources, individuals or otherwise.

Managing the surge in COVID-19 cases on college campuses is a top concern for educators, parents and students.
