How Can I Become A Tutor?


Tutoring on campus is a wonderful way for students to use personal skills to help a fellow student. Tutoring helps both the tutor and the student. When a tutor teaches content material, his or her own understanding of the content grows. At the same time, the tutor is helping a peer better understand the content and expectations of the course. In short, tutoring is a win-win situation.

Students who are interested in becoming a tutor should check can contact the college's learning or study center within their college and ask if any student tutoring positions are currently open. In addition, students may contact the Math staff in the Academic Support Center, the Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP), or TRiO student services to ask if they have any tutoring positions open.

Prospective tutors may also contact the Student Employment Office (SEO) to see if any jobs are posted for student tutors. Please check the SEO website for appropriate documentation needed to apply for a job.
