How do I get started?

What can you expect from Course Content Tutoring?

• Tutors will help you develop the skills you need to understand course content through discussion, review, and practice. They will not lecture or simply give answers to graded work.
• Tutoring is a collaborative learning process that will help you clarify and solidify knowledge. Tutors will expect you to come prepared and to actively participate. You should bring appropriate materials including your textbook, notes, syllabus, calculator, etc.
• Tutors are not content experts, but rather experts at being successful students. They will work alongside you to find answers and they will demonstrate effective learning strategies.
• Tutors will refer you to other resources, including professor office hours, as appropriate.
• Tutors will help you develop good study skills and test-taking strategies. They will encourage you to try new strategies and techniques.
• You are expected to attend class and apply your own work ethic to your courses, including spending adequate time studying outside of tutoring.
