Kovsie Advice

The mid-year exams are creeping closer. That means endless hours – or that is what it feels like – of studying, and coffee by the dozens. You are not alone; the academic advising team from the Centre for Teaching and Learning has created a Kovsie Advice to help you during the dark times. 

This edition of Kovsie Advice will help you keep your eye on the prize during this upcoming mid-year exam. 

You can find tips on how to prepare for the exams, how to deal with exam stress, and how to overcome failures. Also be on the lookout for faculty-specific information from your faculty’s Teaching and Learning Office. 

Be inspired to aim for more, and to realise your dreams. 

Enjoy reading!

First Car makes life easier for our Kovsies with disabilities
2014-06-23


Kovsie student Nthabiseng Mofokeng and Martie Miranda, Sign Language interpreter of the USD, with the sedan sponsored by First Car Rental Service.

First Car Rental Service launched their transport service for students with disabilities at our Bloemfontein Campus during 2013. Their uniquely-branded bright pink sedan and mini-bus are easy to spot as they travel to and from campus.

Driver, John Moatlhodi, safely transports our students with disabilities between the Bloemfontein and South Campuses, to their medical appointments around the city, as well as to projects arranged by the Unit for Students with Disabilities (USD).

Initially, First Car mostly transported interpreters to the South Campus, but their service is rapidly growing in popularity. Added to this great initiative, First Car supplies this transport service at no cost to the university.
