Tutoring Information

Tutoring that does not fall under the auspices of the Math Lab, Writing Center or Language Lab is all done by appointment. Students should fill out a 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 Samantha Riley or the Learning Resources Center office at 410-455-2444.
