Guidelines

• The SHiNEEL tutorial is open to all Undergraduate and Graduate students who need assistance with the following areas: Reading & Writing, Speech Improvement, and Oral Presentation. This is a free service offered by the University through the Office of Student Affairs.

• Students will sign up every Thursday for the tutorial sessions scheduled throughout the following week.

• The schedule of tutorial sessions is fixed, and students should sign up for sessions during their free time. They should not sign up for sessions that coincide with their classes.

• The SHiNEEL tutorial is a clinic-type tutorial. This means that students should identify in advance the kind of help they need from the SHiNEEL tutors. For example, if they have difficulty with a writing assignment, they should bring their draft output and discuss with the tutor the specific aspects of the task they need help with.

• Students will be given a maximum of 30 minutes of tutoring time. During the session, they may be grouped with other students with the same learning needs, as determined by the tutor.

• Students may sign up for more than one tutoring session. There is no limit to the number of tutoring sessions they may avail themselves during the entire term.

• A maximum of eight (8) students will be accommodated in a one-hour and a half block. Thus, only the first 8 students who sign up for a specific schedule will receive the Zoom link.

• Students’ attendance will be monitored by the tutor. If students have three (3) no-shows in a given term, they will not be allowed to sign up for the rest of the term.
