Tutoring

Our Role:

• We cater each session to your learning style and learning goals.
• We work with you to identify goals, employ your strengths and use resources.
• We answer questions about concepts and underlying principles.
• We explain or demonstrate useful strategies, processes and approaches.

Your Role:

• You bring specific goals or questions along with your assignment instructions, textbook or other relevant material.
• You attend class as usual; tutoring cannot substitute for class attendance.
• For assignment-related services, you attempt the work before your appointment.

Limitations:

• If you haven’t completed the course prerequisites, we are unable to provide tutoring.
• The tutor’s job is not to correct mistakes or solve problems but to help you learn.
• The instructor—not the tutor—is the best judge of what the instructor wants from an assignment.
• For non-writing projects, you agree not to ask questions from graded work. (However, tutors can, without viewing the test or graded project/problem, explain a specific topic that you identify to be relevant.)
