A blunt, honest guide to university life written by a former lecturer who's seen it all. Covers everything students need to succeed without burning out - from time management to group work, feedback to AI. Practical advice, zero nonsense. Perfect for freshers or anyone struggling to stay on track.
Written by a former Senior Lecturer with over 30 years' experience in industry and education, Don't Be That Student is a straight-talking, practical guide to surviving and succeeding at university - without losing your mind, your marks, or your motivation.
This book is designed for students who want real advice, not recycled blog posts or dry academic manuals. Whether they're just starting out or already floundering in a fog of deadlines and missed seminars, this is the guide that cuts through the noise and tells them what actually works.
With chapters covering time management, feedback, group work, AI, using reading lists properly, dealing with lecturers, and behaving like a professional, this is the book that bridges the gap between school and higher education. It pulls no punches, makes no excuses, and offers students exactly what they need to hear - even if they don't want to hear it.
Students will learn how to:
Take responsibility for their learning and results
Understand what university really expects from them
Manage their time and stop procrastinating
Get the most out of lectures, seminars, and support staff
Use feedback to improve, rather than argue or ignore it
Use AI safely and ethically without risking misconduct
Build a professional reputation that opens doors beyond university
Still have a social life without destroying their grades
Short, sharp, and genuinely useful, this is the perfect book for freshers, second years in need of a reset, and anyone who wants to make university count.
