HOW DOES IT WORK?
Tutoring is available in most classes by appointment and on a drop-in basis. Tutoring appointments are a mix of small group and one-on-one sessions. There is no cost or fee for tutoring—it is free to all currently registered students. Hundreds of students from all over campus get tutoring each semester. The tutor’s job is to help you navigate the class content and help you become a more resourceful learner.
