Drop-in Tutoring

The Math Discovery Center hires, trains, and schedules tutors to maintain at least one tutor on duty for every hour the center is open so that any eligible student can have access to a tutor. “Drop-in” means that no appointment is necessary to visit the Math Discovery Center. Since the tutor on duty must help as many students as possible, drop-in tutoring refers to having a limited tutoring session with the tutor, generally lasting between three to five minutes. Furthermore, our tutors are trained to assist students by guiding them through the learning process thereby keeping the tutee in charge of their learning. In other words, please do not expect our tutors to solve a problem for you, rather expect them to provide suggestions as to how “you” can solve the problem.
