Individual Tutoring

Student and tutor are scheduled to meet at a specific date and time to cover specific topics from one or more of the student's courses. The student should come prepared with questions and is expected to have studied the material on their own in advance. This service is available for select courses and depends on tutor availability. Tutoring does not take the place of classroom instruction. 

Drop-in Tutoring

Students drop in to the AEC for assistance in their courses, no appointment necessary. Drop in schedules are posted by course. E-mail announcements with available drop in times are sent based on availability and are also posted in the online scheduling system TutorTrac with the code letter D.

Group Tutoring

A group of students may schedule to meet at the same time with one tutor for a specific course. Requests can be made by contacting the AEC staff.

Supplemental Instruction

Peer tutoring programs linked to specific courses, for example Anatomy in the MD and PA programs. Students pre-register for specific SI leader and sessions in the online scheduling system TutorTrac.
