The Academic Success Center

Tutoring

The program connects vested student tutors with students who need assistance with course material for any of a number of courses. The coordinator works with faculty to identify and train students in the capacity of tutor in an ongoing manner. Student-tutors undergo an orientation course as training before being linked with students needing assistance.

Tutoring services are delivered in the following formats to meet the various needs of students:

• Traditional one-on-one tutoring
• Lab tutoring, in which the tutor is available during regularly scheduled lab hours to provide assistance in cooperation with the instructor
• Group tutoring
• Drop-in tutoring

In addition, students who have special needs as identified by the instructor can be designated as a reader or note-taker by the Academic Tutoring Program. For more information about obtaining a tutor, please contact us.

Hocking College is a member of the Ohio eTutoring Collaborative. To access eTutoring services, please visit Hocking College's eTutoring page.
