Tutoring
The General Subjects Tutoring Lab in the Lied Library is open for the summer (see dates and hours below). Although the Engineering Tutoring Lab is closed for the summer, virtual tutoring for essentially all subjects remains available through NetTutor.
Introduction
51ԹϺ provides tutoring services to all undergraduate students at no additional cost, with support available both in person at campus tutoring labs and online through virtual platforms. Our in-person tutoring sessions are facilitated by current 51ԹϺ students who have completed the supported courses with a grade of “B” or better and are recommended by partnering academic faculty. The sessions offer:
- Structured study time with peers
- Reviews of subject material
- Learning strategies to gain a deeper understanding of supported course content.
If you know someone who would benefit from tutoring, complete our to be contacted by a member of our team.
- All students must adhere to the Tutoring Lab Policies and Procedures. Students seeking services through drop-in labs must also adhere to the Tutoring Agreement for Drop-In Labs. Any student that violates any of these policies will kindly be asked to leave our tutoring labs and spaces.
- Our tutoring program can assist students with formative assessments only within the learning process. But, to uphold the academic honesty code of conduct, students are strictly prohibited from receiving assistance for summative assessments such as quizzes and exams.
- Our in-person tutoring does not cover test preparation for standardized exams such as the LSAT, GRE, DAT, Praxis, and similar assessments. However, we do provide support for the ALEKS Placement, Preparation, and Learning (ALEKS PPL) exam.
