Tutoring

The College of Arts & Sciences strives to meet the academic needs of its students by offering tutoring services in a variety of courses. Our tutoring services offer assistance to students who wish to enhance their academic performance in classes offered by the college. We aim to promote independent and active learning among students and to have a positive effect on improving their academic achievement.

Humanities and Social Sciences

The Writing Center directed by Dr. Libbie Searcy and located in A 106 is a free tutoring service center for students who want to improve their writing with the help of trained student tutors. The tutors neither write nor simply edit students' papers for them; rather, they work one-on-one with students, explaining strengths and weaknesses and offering advice about changes and corrections. Students should be sure to allow sufficient time between a tutoring session and an assignment's due date in order to revise and edit their papers as needed.

  • Open Monday – Friday, 11 am - 5 pm
