What Is Tutoring?

Tutoring is individualized assistance from a qualified peer or professional who obtained a level of competency in the subject area.

 

When to Request a Tutor

  • Discuss course concerns with your instructor
  • After following suggestions, request a tutor if you still need help
  • If your instructor recommends tutoring, request a tutor

Tutoring Policy

  • You must be a KCC student
  • You must be currently enrolled in the class you are requesting tutoring for
  • You must have met course prerequisites
  • You must have attended class regularly
  • You must have talked with your instructor (to provide the best assistance, we may also contact your instructor)
  • Weekly tutoring hours may not exceed total credit hours of the course
  • If you miss two tutoring sessions without prior notification, your tutoring will be canceled
  • Behavior problems may result in termination of tutoring services
  • All tutoring MUST take place in a public setting
