Tutoring Can Help You:

What Tutors CAN Do:

  • Review and explain assignments.
  • Facilitate understanding and utilization of textbooks.
  • Clarify information presented by the instructor.
  • Assist with review and edit of written papers.
  • Give tips on studying and note-taking.

What Tutors CANNOT Do:

  • Teach material that is (or isn't) presented in class. Peer tutors are not instructors, if you are in need of an instructor, you need to make a special appointment with one of our Faculty Tutors or make an appointment with your instructor.
  • Write speeches or term papers for students. 
  • Do another student's homework.
  • Contact instructors to find out what is being taught in every class. Contact your instructor for clarification and bring that to a tutor for help.
  • Give advice on anything other than what subjects they tutor. There are other resources on campus that we can direct you to if you need help with anything else.

Tutors cannot help you if you haven't demonstrated that you have put effort into your assignments. This could mean showing them your attempt(s) at completing at least part of your assignment, showing your class notes and assignment to show you are attending class and participating, or any other form of showing your effort in participating in the learning process that the tutors can use to build on what you have learned.
