What to expect in tutoring sessions:
- You can schedule tutoring appointments in advance with your tutor or walk in to any of the open lab sessions as seen on schedules.
- Sessions are very interactive, and tutors will lead you in doing your own work.
- Tutors will help you to become an independent, confident learner.
- Tutors will help you structure your work, and they can help you discover your learning style.
What NOT to expect in tutoring sessions:
- Tutors will not do your work for you. They will not write, edit, or proofread your papers, and they will not give you answers, but will help you find your own answers.
- Tutors will not re-teach the course material. You must attend class, do the assigned reading, and take notes to receive tutoring.
- Tutors will not be available only for study sessions before exams. You are expected to meet with your tutor every week.
