Peer Tutoring

 

Tutoring

PRIME offers weekly tutoring sessions in courses where students self identify a need for one-one assistance or where a formation of a small study group is necessary. Also, PRIME refers students to other on-campus tutoring labs: the Student Academic Resource Center (SARC), the Math Lab, the Engineering Tutoring Lab and the Writing Center.
