Tutoring Tutoring is available in most classes during the regular academic year. Requests for tutors are made at the Tutoring Center which is located in Sisson 114. The Center is open for three hours a day Monday through Friday.
Staff begin taking requests for tutors approximately a week into each semester.
When a tutoring request is made, a staff person takes relevant information and frequently makes an immediate tutoring assignment or referral. If a tutor is not available, the student is asked to return in 2-3 days to pick up a tutor's name and phone number. Small group tutoring has been found to work well in areas such as calculus, foreign languages, statistics, psychology and economics. SSS provides guidelines and assistance in establishing study groups. A student may also be referred to other resources on campus.
