Job Description:
The Studying for Success Tutoring Program’s primary goal is to provide students with a centralized system where they can receive course-specific support here at мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Ö±²¥.

groups at the agreement of all parties involved);

These tutoring positions continue through the entire school year (including summer semester). New tutors are accepted on an on-going basis throughout the school year. Positions will be renewed as necessary. These positions are a great opportunity to: work with students, develop your knowledge base, and participate in personal and other student development.
