Tutoring Information

The LRC tutors most 100 and 200 level classes. If you are taking the core Math Classes, up to Math 152, you can find help in the Math Lab. The Writing Center is there to assist you with any written assignment whether it be a resume or something for a class at UMBC. For most other 100 or 200 level class you can sign up for appointment tutoring using the Tutoring Enrollment Form on-line or up in ACIV, B-wing, Room 345. This information will then be used to place you with a tutor. You will meet with your tutor once a week for an hour in a small group format. Please look to the Tutor Menu to see what courses are offered by appointment. If you have any other questions please contact Sam Riley or the Learning Resources Center office at 410-455-2444.
