Tutoring

Everyone needs a little help from time to time. Tutorial Services provides a supportive learning environment to all students seeking academic support. We strive to help our students better prepare for classes and develop the skills necessary for a successful college career.

• Tutoring
• Writing and Reading Centers

Why should you come for tutoring?

• You can achieve a higher grade point average
• You can use your study time more effectively
• There are individual and group sessions
• You can receive up to 3 hours per week/per subject
• Our tutors don't simply provide answers -- they will empower you with the tools necessary to find the answers on your own
• Tutoring is free to all enrolled students

Tutoring sessions are led by qualified tutors who received an "A" or "B" in the respective courses for which they choose to tutor. They reinforce specific course material emphasized by the professors and use their own successful student experiences to integrate what-to-learn with how-to-learn. All of our tutors come highly recommended by faculty members.

Subject areas offered for tutoring change each semester, but may include math, chemistry, math, English-as-a-second language (ESL), history, psychology, anthropology, biology, anatomy, geography and many more.
