We will make every attempt to find a tutor in a timely manner for those subjects
that are not covered.
Tips for Working with Tutors:
- Keep your scheduled appointments and be ready to work when your tutor arrives.
Write down information about your assignments, have a copy of the study guide
and bring your textbook and class notes.
- Your tutor will not do your homework for you. They will help you to learn, not
help you to avoid hard work.
- Prepare beforehand. Formulate specific questions.
- Be ready to concentrate.
- Be clear about what you want.
Early Alert System
It is important for students to be aware of their academic progress in classes early
in the semester so there is ample time to correct the situation. View how you can
