Tutoring Services

The Success Center's Learning Cooperative provides free tutoring for all students who request assistance. The tutors are students who have been recommended by Southern Vermont College faculty and are trained by the Tutor Coordinator. The Learning Cooperative provides the following services:

Walk-In Tutorials

The Office is staffed by tutors who are proficient in a wide variety of subjects. The hours and tutors' areas of expertise are posted throughout the College. No appointments are necessary. Walk-in tutorials are available five days a week and several nights a week.

Tutorials

If the walk-in tutorial schedule does not offer enough flexibility, students may sign up for individualized tutoring with the Tutor Coordinator.

Study Groups

The Tutor Coordinator assists in the organization of study groups for several core courses. A student leader meets regularly with students in the group, helping them review class work and prepare for tests.

Workshops

Workshops are held in the Learning Cooperative as requested for special skills review: proofreading, note-taking, textbook reading, spelling, and study skills. The dates and times are announced in advance.
