Tutoring is a service that assists students in becoming independent learners by reviewing academic techniques such as exam preparation, note taking, analysis of classroom and text materials, and helps students apply these techniques toward coursework. SASS offers these services to students in Suite 346 of the Library & Academic Resources Center (LARC). Several academic departments across campus also offer tutoring services. Please find the current schedule(s) of available tutors below.
