LSE LIFE Study Advisers
LSE LIFE study advisers are available to talk with you about key skills like reading, making notes, essay writing, research, exam revision, managing your time and other study-related matters.
Appointments can be booked at https://portal.lse.ac.uk/s/schedule-appointment?dept=life, and are available Monday - Friday, 10am - 6pm (London Time, GMT). We currently offer sessions online, via Microsoft Teams, and on campus in LSE LIFE Workspace 1. Over the Winter break, appointments are available until 20 December and from 2 January.
Please note: we will be using a new booking system for our one-to-ones from January 2025. If you experience any problems with bookings, please email lselife@lse.ac.uk and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Bookings open one week in advance and we're currently offering about 30 appointments every day. If you find no appointments available to book in the coming week, or if you have difficulties making use of this resource, please contact us by email at lselife@lse.ac.uk, or stop by the LSE LIFE reception on the ground floor of the Library. If there has been a cancellation, we are sometimes able to arrange a short meeting on the same day where you can check in with a study adviser with a quick question.
LSE LIFE does not provide proofreading services. We can talk with you about how you can learn to proofread your own work better, though! The Language Centre offers a paid proofreading service, as do other service providers.
LSE LIFE is just one part of the wide range of support you can find at LSE. Explore this guide to support around health, wellbeing, and more.
