We offer both individual and group tutorials at no charge to the tutee.
Students are tutored by peer tutors that have been recommended by their instructors. Students that need a tutor or are interested in tutoring fellow students should stop by the Academic Assistance Office.

Office 20 has been set up as our language/listening lab. These computers are equipped with sound cards so students can use the tutorial CD's that accompany their textbooks.
