About the Learning Commons

The Learning Commons provides academic support for all Bard students! We offer free tutoring in writing and humanities subjects taught at Bard, writing and academic skills workshops for students, and also tutoring in Learning Strategies and for Senior Projects. Our faculty teach credit-bearing courses in writing, English as a second language, and inclusive pedagogies, composition philosophy and pedagogy, information literacy, and public speaking. We can also help students seeking disability accommodations.
