What to Expect at Peer Tutoring

Students can expect to work in a small group with CRLA certified peer tutors and other students enrolled in the same course. Students can pop in to tutoring to ask a single question, or stay awhile and work through a few homework problems. Many students make coming to The Study part their weekly homework routine.

Leading up to exams, The Study will get busier and group sizes will be larger. Students are encouraged to come early and often when preparing for their exams. The Study also offers Common Hour Study Groups to support students in their exam prep.

What virtual tutoring looks like

All virtual tutoring sessions will be conducted via GoBoard, an interactive platform that combines video conferencing with an interactive canvas, making it perfect for collaboration with your tutor.

Similar to our in-person tutoring, you can expect to work in a small group with your tutor and other students enrolled in the same course. Feel free to pop in to tutoring to ask a single question, or stay awhile and work through a few homework problems. Virtual drop-in tutoring also provides a great chance to review for an upcoming quiz or exam.
