Testimonial
“AES tutoring has been an important part of my semester. I often went to receive help with Programming and Calculus. Classes usually have 25+ students, so it is not possible for one professor to sit down and assist each one of his or her students with problems. The one-on-one interaction you get from AES tutoring is very helpful. The tutors there are encouraging, kind, and knowledgeable. They work with you step by step explaining the problem. AES tutoring is a great program that has successfully enhanced my learning and has greatly improved my grades.” - Sarah Clayton ‘19
