The Tutorial Center offers a unique approach to academic intervention in that they are programs for the students, of the students, and by the students. Tutoring services are provided by Vanguard students who have mastered their material and have shown exemplary ability to facilitate learning for their peers. These students are carefully selected and led by the ARC Program Coordinator.
The strengths of the program are revealed in the philosophy and operation of them. Students are viewed as one-of-a-kind learners with unique learning styles and individual needs. Center operation embraces the positive aspects of tutorial assistance. Rather than students feeling the stigma of needing academic assistance, they are encouraged to use tutorial services in order to foster success in a class from the onset.
Two hours of tutoring per week is provided at no cost to the student. Appointments are available in person or virtually.
