Welcome! Now that you have made an appointment to meet with a student tutor, here are some tips to help you get the best possible results from your tutoring session:
- Prepare for your tutoring session. Know what you want to cover. Bring pertinent texts, notes, assignments and—most of all—your questions. The more specific your purpose, the more on target a tutor can be.
- Be on time. A tutor will wait for 10 minutes. After that, the appointment will cancelled.
- If you are unable to keep an appointment, please call 253.879.3404 and let us know whether you will be late or wish to cancel altogether. Sometimes another student is waiting.
- Do not expect a tutor to do your assigned work. A tutor can increase your understanding and support your problem solving efforts, but a tutor cannot do tasks for you.
Our tutors are eager to conference with you. Let's work together to make the most of your learning experience at Puget Sound.
