Virtual tutoring for online students
Online tutoring appointments are FREE small group one-hour focused sessions.
Peer tutors assisting you want to see you succeed! Before your tutoring session please review your course, materials and come prepared with your questions. Your tutor may offer constructive feedback, share strategies that have worked for them or for other students, and ask questions about your understanding of the material.
Peer tutors will not assist with graded assignments or homework. Our goal is to help you learn key concepts in your course material and offer study skills and strategies you can use when studying on your own.
