This tutor lab offers one-on-one and group tutoring plus computers on-site to give you hands-on help with on-line homework. The tutors will not do your homework for you.

Room 2227
The Math 1140 and Math 1160 tutor lab is located at 2227 Rood Hall and offers drop-in tutoring to give you hands-on help with the course homework. The lab is staffed by course tutors, SI leaders, and graduate assistants who teach the course, so they know first-hand what material is being covered. The tutors will not do your homework for you. Instead, they will work with you to find out where you are stuck and how they can best help you to move forward from there. This approach will help support you as you strengthen your problem-solving skills. (Tutoring schedule in revision).
