Tips for a Successful Tutoring Sessions:
Start Early
We are happy to assist you with study prep, notetaking, brainstorming, and final revisions, but it’s important that you begin
working with a tutor early to keep you from being stressed about pressing
deadlines.
Come prepared
Have any relevant textbooks, syllabi, class materials, notes, and
papers nearby. It is easier for the tutors to provide excellent tutoring
service if you bring the appropriate materials to a tutoring session.
Come with a plan and questions
Know what material you would like to cover
within that tutoring session. Actively participate in the tutoring sessions by
having a list of questions to ask your assigned tutor.
Familiarize Yourself with the Course Materials
We strongly encourage you to read the assigned readings and
attempt to complete your assignment prior to requesting a tutor so you can take
note of specific concepts where you need help. You and your tutor can review
these concepts and work through similar problems. However, the tutor cannot do
your homework for you nor help you with take-home tests, quizzes, or projects.
Use your tutoring time wisely
Your time with the tutor is valuable. Try to
limit distractions (cellphone, tv, friends/family) while working
with your assigned tutor.
