Additional tutoring services for courses that are marked with an asterisk (*) in the list above OR for math courses not listed in the course catalog under the Mathematics (MA) section may depend on the availability of tutor(s) for the specific subject matter or may be available through special arrangements.
While being tutored on these courses, please remember to bring the required reading materials to the Tutor Lab in case any tutors available do not have the immediate knowledge needed to help you.

In order to ensure we provide the most effective services, we kindly ask you to follow the Tutor Lab Guidelines.

1. Please be prepared to meet with your tutor. 

   • Have your materials needed for the session ready. This includes your supplies (such as pen/pencil and paper), notes, textbook, and specific questions.

   • DO try to work on the problems first. We are not here to do your homework, but to help guide you to the right answers. 

   • DO NOT bring in any sort of exam or quiz. Tutors will not assist you on these assignments. However, at the discretion of the course instructor, tutors will proctor your quizzes and tests, then send in your completed quiz to the instructor for them to grade.

2. ALL virtual tutoring session will be via Zoom.

   • To download Zoom, please visit: https://zoom.us/. It's free for Mac, PC, iOS and Android.

   • If you are unfamiliar with Zoom, click here for tutorials. 

3. Turn off your cell phone or put it on silent mode.

4. Be mindful of the space around you. You want to make sure the tutor can hear you. In addition, you want to hear the tutor. For virtual sessions, pick a quiet place to hold your tutor session. Microphones can pick up a lot of noise.

In-person Tutoring is limited to one session (maximum of 1 hour = 60 minutes) per student, per day. Appointments have a 15-minute grace period before cancellation. You are expected to work between sessions and make progress on your assignment before returning to see a tutor.

To ensure all students have an equal opportunity to benefit from our tutoring services, we ask that when booking an appointment, DO NOT book more than one session per day.

Please keep in mind that the tutors are not there to replace or substitute your instructor. If you missed a lecture day, please see your instructor.
