The Learning Centre is gearing up to serve your students for the summer term. Over the summer, we will continue to provide tutoring in two modes -- on campus and online.
Our hours for on-campus tutoring are posted on the front door of each Learning Centre (NW - Room 2209; DL - Room A1040). On-campus tutoring has some of the following features:
•The focus is skill development in reading, writing, math, basic computer, and study skills.
•The tutoring is provided by weekly appointment rather than by drop-in.
Students who prefer something approaching a drop-in service should use the online service instead (see below).
•We also provide tutoring in course content when we have tutors able to tutor in a given course. Feel free to phone us to find out if we have tutors with background in any given area.
Our online tutoring service has the following features:
•It is mainly geared toward helping students with their writing skills.
oHowever, if students would like other kinds of help online, they should come and talk to us and we can see what we can set up.
•Unlike the on-campus tutoring, online tutoring also provides service in the evenings and on weekends.
•Students can access our on-line tutoring through the Douglas College website (from the home page, the student services page, or the Learning Centre page), or they can use the following web address: www.douglascollege.ca/onlinetutor.
We also have self-help resources, which students can find in the on-campus Centres and online.
If you have questions, suggestions or comments about the Learning Centre, please give us a call:
