ACADEMIC TUTORING 

SUMMER quarter - 2009

Requests will be accepted the third day of summer quarter

Our Services include:

FREE Individual & Drop-in Tutoring

• INDIVIDUAL TUTORING may be available for students with a grade of C or below (instructor approval is required)

             There are a number of factors that determine if and when you receive tutoring:

                   → Instructor approval

                   → Your time availability

                   → The tutor's time availability

                   → If we have enough tutors to cover the incoming requests

                   → Whether we have a tutor in place to cover your specific course request

            Because of these factors, it is important to remember tutoring is NOT guaranteed.  

• DROP-IN TUTORING is available in many subjects.  Tutors are available to answer questions and provide assistance for multiple courses in the same subject.

• PAID TUTOR POSITIONS are available for the 2008-2009 academic year.  Please read the INFO sheet then download and complete the appropriate application and reference forms by clicking on the link provided or clicking the Forms tab above.
