If you are thinking about requesting a tutor… 

• First, ask your instructor for help before or after class or during office hours. You may find this provides all the help you need.
   
• If you decide you need further assistance, turn in a request form as soon as possible because the process of matching student with a tutor could take a day or two. 

How do I get a tutor? 

• Complete a request form. On the back of the form block out class times and work hours if you have a job. List course names and room numbers to help the staff locate you on campus if we need to send you a message. Mark blocks of time with X’s where you are available to work with a tutor during the week. The more flexibility you have in available time, the easier it is to match your schedule with a tutor’s schedule.

Last year 94% of the students who met regularly with their tutor passed their courses. The keys to their success were attending class, completing assignments, and keeping their tutoring appointments.

• Ask your instructor to sign the request form. 

• Bring the Request Form to The Learning Center. 

• Follow up on your request by contacting The Learning Center to ask if tutoring arrangements have been completed.

• Check your e-mail for information about your request.

 Where will my tutoring session be?

 Two hours a week are provided. One or two meetings can be scheduled within the two-hour frame.
