Description:
Tutors assist students with improving academic achievement by helping with course material and the development of study skills and test-taking strategies. Assistance might include reviewing class material, working on solutions to problems, discussing the text and other reading materials, or predicting and practicing potential test questions. Tutors bring expertise and enthusiasm to learning.
Tutors assist students in the Tutoring Center (ELC 204) with walk-in and pre-scheduled one-on-one tutoring. Small group tutoring is also offered through Peer-Assisted Learning (PAL) Groups which are held in SUU classrooms.
Tutors are currently needed for chemistry and business courses. However, please list all courses you believe you could successfully tutor when applying.
(Note: The Tutoring Center does not tutor English, writing, or CSIS)
