How to Find a Tutor
Find a Tutor
Most peer tutoring offered by the Learning Commons comes in the form of drop-in hours--daily tutoring hours that any student can take advantage of.If you need a tutor in writing, math, physics, chemistry, economics, or biology, we suggest that you first take advantage of the special study sessions in those subjects (see below) before requesting one-on-one tutoring.
The Learning Commons does employ a limited number or personal tutors in each subject. If your needs are not met by drop-in hours or study rooms, please submit a Tutor Request Form by clicking on the link below.
