The Tutoring Program supports select introductory STEM and language courses. A list of supported courses is available on the Supported Courses webpage.
Group Tutoring
The Tutoring Program aims to provide small peer learning groups that foster a deepening of students' understanding of course content. To achieve this goal, tutors strive to create inclusive learning communities that meet the needs of students through tailored lesson plans, group activities (i.e., group problem-solving), and peer feedback.
Submit tutoring requests during the Early Request period:
- Students can submit requests for group tutoring beginning Monday, September 19.
- Group tutoring sessions are scheduled between the hours of 10 a.m. - 10 p.m. ET Sunday-Thursday. We do our best to offer various group sessions, but students may need to alter their schedules to accommodate the available tutoring sessions.
