Students from across all disciplines can become subject area tutors in the Learning Cooperative. Certain subjects receive more demand than others, but tutors work with more than 200 distinct courses.
To recommend a student for the subject area tutor position, any faculty member can complete our recommendation form.
For an overview of the position, you can view our website.
Any questions about the subject area tutor position can be directed to Keith Williams, Tutor Program Coordinator overseeing the subject area program.
Learning Skills Tutors
The Learning Cooperative also hires and trains students to become Learning Skills tutors. Instead of working with particular courses, these tutors work with improving all aspects of an individualÕs study system. This includes, but is not limited to, topics such as procrastination and time management, test-taking and test anxiety, textbook reading, note-taking, and personal motivation.
One can find on our website both a description of the program, as well as a more detailed description of the position.(JPEG image)
For any questions about the Learning Skills tutor position, or to recommend a student to become a Learning Skills tutor, you can contact Damir Alisa, Tutor Program Coordinator overseeing the Learning Skills program.
Writing Tutors
The Writing Center employs over fifty peer-tutors from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds. Writing tutors can provide assistance with understanding assignments, organization, developing ideas, strengthening arguments, revising drafts, general feedback, and essentially anything else related to the process of writing.
More information about the Writing Center and the writing tutor position can be found on the website.
In order to recommend a student, or to ask questions about the Writing center, you can contact Susan Dinitz, Director of the Writing Center.
