Tutoring Center

Just about everyone could use a little extra help with something, at least once in awhile. Assistance is available for everything from "math anxiety" to help with reading and writing.

Peer Tutoring – If assistance is needed in a specific course, you may apply to the Tutoring Center, located in the College Success Center. Student tutors recommended by instructors are available to any student on campus. The number of hours per week of free tutoring available to students varies with the number of credits being taken.

Students who wish to become tutors should contact an instructor for a written recommendation, and then report to the Tutoring Center.

Supplemental Instruction (SI) - SI is small group academic assistance, a program shown to increase student performance. It is offered only in specific introductory classes. Check with your counselor or the tutoring and SI supervisor for more information.

Referral Tutoring – If peer tutoring is not appropriate or available, any student, parent or concerned adult may contact the College Tutoring Center to request help in finding a tutor. The College Success Center does not pay for such tutoring, however. Those who prefer referral tutoring must pay the tutor themselves after each session, unless other arrangements are made.

Students who are veterans and use referral tutoring must fill out Form 1990T and submit it to the tutoring supervisor at the end of each month in which tutoring takes place. The veteran will then be reimbursed by the Veterans Administration.
