[edit] Appointments
What is an appointment?
Appointments are are a chance for you to work weekly with a coach on a one-on-one basis. You will have the opportunity to have questions answered about homework, review concepts for exams, or study for exams.
When are appointments offered?
Appointments are offered during the fall and spring semesters. They are available Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
How do I sign up?
To sign up for an appointment, you'll need to sign up on the bulletin board outside the learning center. Simply find a time that works for you and write your name underneath an available coach's name. Coaches in the learning center can assist you if needed.
[edit] Walk-ins
What is the benefit of getting help during walk-in hours?
Walk-in hours provide a chance for you to get some quick help with your math classes. We also have text books, student solution manuals and notes available for you to use. Just ask the walk-in coach to see what we have available.
When are walk-ins offered?
Walk-in hours are posted on the door of the MLC and on the chalkboard inside. See a coach for more information and check the schedule below. You can walk in & get help from coaches on first-come first-serve basis.
How do walk-ins work?
Simply come to the learning center during our walk-in hours. Sign in on the sheet to your right as you walk into the room and have a seat. Start working and when you have a problem, raise your hand or ask a coach.
