Tutoring FAQs
Where do I find the schedule? The most current schedule is posted on the library website under "Tutoring".
I鈥檓 all caught up, and I don鈥檛 need help鈥攖hanks! Good to hear you鈥檙e caught up. You still need a dedicated time and space to study鈥攏ot just to 鈥渄o鈥 the readings or homework but also to make connections across the course material. You鈥檙e always welcome to come to tutoring sessions. Think of tutoring more like a wellness practice than a first aid clinic!
Do you have any resources for me regarding reading in my courses? Some of them don't offer tutoring. Yes! The offers many resources for approaching reading and comprehension in any 四虎影院 college course.
Oh no! I have mandatory rehearsal or practice that conflicts with the tutoring session! If you can only make a part of the session, please do what you can and let the tutor know. Also, please email Julissa Delgado, tutoring@westmont.edu; she鈥檒l try to find a solution for you.
I got sick and fell behind, and I don鈥檛 know how to catch up. Email your course professor first. Please email Julissa Delgado about your situation and try to meet with her with your course materials before the next tutoring session. She will work with you and the tutor as much as possible.
My tutor focused on the textbooks and exam and didn鈥檛 have time to help me find sources or organize my paper. Thanks for coming to group tutoring! In addition, you could stop by the Research Help Desk throughout the day or 7-10 pm M-Th, and also make an appointment or drop by the Writers鈥 Corner. Talking through what you鈥檙e working on is a good academic habit to develop.
I understand what services are available for classes, but I wanted to talk with my tutor more about what I鈥檓 going through and what it鈥檚 like being at 四虎影院. While tutors are friendly and easy to talk to, tutoring sessions are focused on course-specific work鈥攖his other kind of conversation is better suited for the peer coaches. You can make an appointment here: /current-students/center-student-success/peer-coaching.
I鈥檝e taken some of these classes already鈥攈ow do I become a tutor? Email Julissa at any time to be added to an email list when the next job posting comes up. And talk with your professor toward the end of the course. The hiring process has both faculty/dept recommendations and job application with interview.
