Online Tutoring vs. Drop-in Tutoring
Tutors are available on a drop-in basis at the Teaching + Learning Commons and at scheduled sessions for online tutoring. Online tutoring is provided through an online platform (Adobe Connect) and is very similar to drop-in tutoring.
Drop-in tutoring takes place at the Teaching + Learning Commons, and online tutoring takes place wherever you have access to a computer and Internet! Online tutoring allows for tutoring to be more accessible to students.
Both online tutoring and drop-in tutoring help students:
- Receive supportive, focused, and on-task assistance
- Work with a trained tutor to develop strategies for success in your courses
- Acquire effective learning and problem-solving strategies
- Work through your questions about confusing course concepts
- Develop exam preparation skills
- Receive guidance on homework problems

2. You will notice a meeting and whiteboard menu at the the top and left side of the application.

The whiteboard menu will allow you to write on the white board, add text, change font color and size, and switch between whiteboards.
3. The tutor will give you access to certain items in the meeting room (screen shares, editing/writing privileges, etc.) and will help you navigate and utilize the online platform! Goodluck on your studies.
