Learning Centre Staff Tutoring:

Our professional Learning Centre staff tutors have years of teaching and tutoring 
experience. The scope of this experience encompasses subjects such as English, 
study skills, math and science. Academic support is offered for the following 
subject areas:

Booking Procedures:

1. Drop by room 3024 (across from the library). Weekly schedules indicating 
   subject areas and available times for each of our staff tutors are posted 
   within The Learning Centre. Tutoring is available Monday to Friday, 9:30 
   to 4:30.

2. Sign your name in a free time slot on the appropriate schedule. Be sure to also 
   include the subject code (i.e. BUS 1100). If you do not know the code, please 
   supply a subject title (i.e. Business Math). DO NOT book a tutorial session 
   during any of your regularly scheduled class times.

   *Please note that you may include your name in someone else's booked time if 
   it is for the same subject. Certain subjects have a very high demand during 
   particular times throughout the semester; therefore, group tutoring is sometimes 
   necessary. If you require individual tutoring, please indicate as you sign up 
   for your tutoring session.

3. Book up to 2 hours per week per subject. We encourage students to book only 
   one session at a time as they require tutorial assistance.  If two hours a week 
   is insufficient, it is possible to request more time with our tutors.

4. On the reminder sheets attached to the booking board, write down the 
   appointment date, time, and name of the tutor.

Cancellation Procedure:

1. In order to facilitate tutoring access to students in need, we ask that if you 
   are unable to make your appointment, please come into The Tutorial Centre 
   and cross your name out in the appropriate time slot.

2. You may also phone 566-8101, ext. 7262 or 7920 and let one of us know.

Peer Tutoring:

Peer tutors are interested students who have met the following conditions:

1. They are full time Cambrian College students.
2. They have passed the course with an A or a B.
3. They have been recommended by a professor.
4. They have maintained a reasonable G.P.A.
