MATHEMATICS

Tutoring is available for courses from Beginning Algebra (MAT 090) to first-semester Calculus (MAT 167) and for math problems in other courses. So that students will receive the attention they deserve, we schedule a tutor with no more than three students at one time. Tutors assist students by explaining concepts, answering questions, and working sample problems. The Center

also provides handouts which cover specific math topics that have proven difficult for students in the past.
