- How Tutoring Works
Current Tennessee Tech Students
Free peer tutoring is available for any Tennessee Tech student online. Tutoring is by appointment only. Tutors help students understand course material, answer questions, and offer suggestions for studying and learning. Tutoring is available for:
- Any class/subject
- Writing (class papers, graduate school essays, etc.)
- Research Help (searching for library resources)
- Resumes
- Test Prep (COMPASS, GRE, ACT, Praxis, etc.)
- Study Skills
You must be prepared and ready to actively participate in your tutoring appointment. Have specific concepts or questions to ask your tutor. Speak up if your tutor is going too fast or slow, and don’t be afraid to say you still don’t understand something. Be sure to take notes during your tutoring session so you can review them later. If you cannot attend your tutoring appointment, please cancel it online.
