Tutoring Program is Actively Looking for Tu tors

Spring Hill College

Tutoring Program is looking for tutors for the upcoming fall 2023 semester. There are no more tutoring sessions being offered this semester. However, this does not mean that the tutoring center is not looking for tutors for next fall. All of the tutors are students who have previously taken the classes they are tutoring; it is not uncommon for some of them to be seniors. Being seniors means that they are not going to be returning in the fall and thus the tutor program will need to fill the spots

Acording to Dr. Drunkenmiler, who is the sponsor for the writing tutors, anyone who wants to be a tutor can be one as long as they have taken the specific class and passed it with an A. This includes upcoming sophomores who wish to tutor. If there is a class in which a student feels they could tutor, all they need to do is get in contact with the division chair of the class and they will point them in the direction of the sponsor for that particular division to go through the process of becoming a tutor.

For those chosen to become tutors they will undergo a training process the first week of the fall semester so they can learn techniques that will help them communicate with their fellow peers as well as how to effectively communicate the subject they are tutoring. This can be especially helpful for students looking to go into teaching as it gives them experience in teaching the specific subjects. Along with being given experience it allows for all students to expand upon their communication skills and allow for more effective talking skills. Students who tutor also get paid hourly while tutoring.

SHC tutoring offers tutors for all subjects, including math, chemistry, biology, languages and writing. The goal of tutoring is to help students get a better understanding of their classes from students who have previously taken and passed the specific class.

According to Professor Druckenmiller, “ We do also have tutors in nursing, statistics, logic and theology. We have one French and Italian tutor as well. If we don’t have a tutor for a class you are looking for you can email a professor and we will try and help you find someone.”

Each semester these tutors take appointments that best fit both their schedules and the schedules of the students who they are tutoring. This is so everyone can get the best tutoring they can at times that work best for them.

Additionally, they also offer walk-in tutoring on specific days usually for the most in demand classes such as math, writing,

Picture biology and chemistry. These walk-ins are done usually in the late afternoon or early evening so that everyone is available and free to attend if they are looking for help. newswire.shc.edu
