Tutoring Centers
The Victoria College offers free tutoring services to all students who need academic assistance. Student Support Services offers a Main Tutoring Center, located in the Continuing Education Center, Room 100, and a Reading Room in CEC 102. The Center has tutors on duty to cover the basic academic courses such as English, math, sciences, social and behavioral sciences, and basic computer courses. The Reading Room offers a quiet place to read and/or study without the distractions of a busy Center. Tutoring is also available in several other locations around campus: science courses in S102, English and Reading in L102, new "All-Day" Math Tutoring Center in JH 209, and at the distance learning centers through e-mail. Tutoring schedules are posted on the VC Website for easy access, and copies are available in the each Center. Students who need assistance in an area not covered on the current schedule can stop by CEC 100 and make arrangements for a tutor, depending on the availability of funds and tutors. Students can also call 572-6473, or email the Center at tutorhelp@victoriacollege.edu.
Students who wish to work as tutors are encouraged to apply early each semester for these paid positions. For additional information please contact the Tutoring Center by phone or e-mail. Tutors must have an instructor's recommendation and achieve CRLA Level I Certification training in the first two semesters they tutor to ensure the quality of support services offered.
The Tutoring Center strives to meet the needs of VC students with a selection of materials and helps such as videos, computer tutorials, and handouts. The expanded Website provides information and a variety of handouts available for printing. The Reading Room has a selection of books for in-house reading or check out, and a TV/VCR is available for using videos with a tutor present to help in explaining the materials. Please stop by and see what the Tutoring Center can offer you.
