Math Study Center

 

Things to do before getting help from a tutor

  1. Reread or reorganize your notes.
  2. Attempt problems from the assignment. Try to come up with specific questions to ask the tutor.
  3. Make certain you understand what your professor expects of you.
  4. Possibly see your professor during office hours.

How to use the Math Study Center

  1. Sign up for Math 198 (a zero credit, zero cost course) - All Students must do this each semester. Our door-duty people and tutors will be glad to help you sign up for this course. They will have access to add codes if you don't have one.
  2. Log in when you enter by entering your College ID. We can help you figure it out if you aren't sure. The log-in computer is immediately on the right when you enter.
  3. Find a seat and start doing your assignment. We might suggest you sit with others needing help with the same course, but you certainly can sit where you like.
  4. Have a question? Raise your hand and a tutor will come to help you as soon as they can. Our tutors do their best to assist others up to a certain amount of time so that they can get to everyone. Be patient. Someone will be there for you.
  5. Have respect for others - turn your cell phone off. If you need to be contacted - turn your phone on vibrate mode and answer it outside the building.
  6. Do not install or download software of any kind on our computers.
  7. NO FOOD OR DRINKS (please keep water bottles in your back packs and away from the computers).
  8. Please don't forget to log out when you leave. (Logging in and out and, for that matter, signing up for Math 198 in the first place helps us keep track of usage of the center so that we can continue to be funded.)

What to do after you've been tutored

  1. Evaluation forms are available next to the log-in computer. Please fill out an evaluation form. Let us know if you had a great experience or if there are any issues we need to address.
  2. You might also want to let your instructor know if you had a good experience or if there were any issues that arose while at the center. They can then get in touch with us.
  3. Finish up assignments related to the topics you were assisted with to reinforce what you've been shown.
