WHAT WE OFFER

Tusculum University provides free tutoring services to both traditional and online students through The Tutoring Center, located on the ground floor of the Meen Center, Room 008. The Center offers support for students seeking either occasional assistance or ongoing tutoring throughout the semester using both peer and degreed tutors. Tutoring takes place in public spaces around campus such as the Thomas J. Garland Library, Niswonger Commons, and the Tutoring Center, as well as online via Zoom or Google Meet.

Students can also access tutoring services on the Tutoring Center Canvas course page. Students can connect directly to a tutor’s appointment calendar to schedule an appointment for specific academic courses or for skill development in areas such as Microsoft Suite, time management, study skills, professional résumé writing, and more. In addition, students may submit papers through this platform to receive feedback and citation assistance from writing tutors. The course page also offers informational videos and other resources for college, mental health, finances, and other topics.

Students may also request tutoring or ask questions by emailing the Associate Director at tutoring@tusculum.edu.  Please note that faculty reserve the right to require students to attend tutoring sessions.
