Would you like extra help with your math class? Come to the Math Learning Center (MLC); we are here to assist you! Our tutors can help you with understanding a homework problem or clarifying a concept that was presented in class. The MLC is located in CH 313.

The MLC employs students in part-time hourly positions to provide brief tutorial math assistance on a drop-in basis. A schedule of tutors, along with the level of math and the days/times available is posted at the MLC. This tutoring service is free of charge.

• CHECK THE SCHEDULE that is posted on the MLC doors to see what times each tutor is working
• FORM A STUDY GROUP with classmates, then meet in the MLC
• USE ONLINE RESOURCES and tutorials – computers are available at the center
