Need help in school? There's an app for that. Well not really, but if you are stuck with assignments, or just need help in a subject there are people for that.
LBCC has a tutoring facility in the Learning Center that offers a wide range of subject matter.Their website on the LBCC homepage has a list of subjects of tutoring options. They can help you with math, science, writing, and even help you with your French and Spanish classes.
The tutoring program also has other subjects that can be offered for help. Those subjects include accounting, automotive, horticulture, medical terminology, human anatomy & physiology, computer science, software applications, nursing, and engineering.
Students should not be afraid to seek help. If you are serious about your college experience, and you could use a little extra push toward making the grades, sign up for tutoring. They can help you one on one.
Tutors take the time to help you develop a positive attitude about learning, and can help you become a better independent learner. They will not do your homework for you! They are there to help, but you must have an appointment first.
If you would like to sign up for tutoring it is simple. According to Sheri McIntyre if you would like to sign up for personal tutoring come to the Tutoring Center in Willamette Hall and fill out the registration form. It is quick and simple.
Sydney Altson, a LBCC student has been attending student tutoring for over the last month. She was at first skeptical, and wasn't sure if tutoring was right for her, but when her grades started to slip she sought help.
"Tutoring has helped me so much," says Altson, "They help fit my schedule, and gave me the better understanding to be able to learn the criteria".
People all over the campus attend the tutoring center daily.
"Winter term we had 1460 tutoring sessions," says McIntyre, "Fall term we had 1253 sessions".
There are benefits to becoming a tutor. Most tutors are students as well. Many of them are recommended by instructors, and have passed certain classes with content mastery.
If you are interested in becoming a tutor, talk with your advisor, and your instructors then set a meeting up with McIntyre. The starting wages for a tutor are $9.01/hour. Many of them have a 10 hours a week available.
If you are interested in signing up for tutoring, or if there is a subject that you need help in but don't see it on the list contact McIntyre. They can try and arrange a tutor for you.
