Tutors
• Booking ahead with a tutor is optional. For example, folks may book ahead if they’d like to meet over Teams instead of in person. You can also just stop by the library during our open hours!
• We’ll have our flyers sitting next to us when we’re on the clock. Even if we’re working on something in the meantime while we wait for someone to stop by, our priority is to be available for students, so don’t be afraid to say hi!
• What does Peer Tutor/Peer Advisor mean?
o This position combines the roles of a peer tutor and a peer advisor, providing a meaningful way to engage with fellow students. Peer tutors will provide individual and small-group tutoring to students. Tutors will be expected to assist students in improving academic achievement by meeting regularly to clarify learning difficulties and build student skills. Other assistance may include reviewing class materials, discussing the text, predicting test questions, formulating ideas for papers, and being solution-focused. Students are not expected to know everything about the subject they tutor.
o A peer advisor will be knowledgeable about academic resources. Peer advisors will work collaboratively with SSC staff to facilitate workshops on topics such as using the student portal, understanding campus resources, and success tools, such as study tips and note-taking.
