About Tutoring
Tutoring Services offers many options for tutoring: scheduled appointments, walk-in tutoring, Supplemental Instruction, study groups and workshops. These services are offered free of charge, on a first-come, first-served basis as availability permits.
Supplemental Instruction (SI) - Various locations on campus
Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a group tutoring session that is scheduled to support students enrolled in historically difficult classes. Students can walk-in for any or all of the sessions. The SI schedule changes each semester depending on scheduled class times.
Weekly Scheduled Appointments - Arts & Sciences 108
- A student is assigned to meet with a tutor for 50 minutes every week on the same day and at the same time throughout the current semester. Students may be scheduled to share an appointment with a student in the same class, or students may request to share an appointment with a friend.
- Example: A student is assigned to meet with Jaime, a tutor, every Monday during the fall semester from 3:10 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. to work on MATH 107 and WRIT 117.
