Fall Semester

Under the supervision of the Center for Teaching and Learning Math Coordinator, students will actively engage in tutoring each week. Students will spend a minimum of two hours each week in the tutoring, completing coursework, observing, or meeting/planning with the mathematics coordinator. Students will work with tutees on an individualized basis as well as in small group settings. Students will model effective strategies observed in successful tutoring sessions and learned in MAT 210. By continually evaluating the effectiveness of specific strategies, students will learn the best approach for a variety of situations.
