What do I need to know about my tutor and our tutoring sessions?
You will meet your tutor in the library for about an hour, once, twice, or even three times a week if necessary. Please bring specific questions/problems, your book, all assignments, and a writing utensil. Your tutor is trained, paid, and highly qualified in the subject area you need.
