A Supplemental Service to Face-to-Face Tutoring for English and Math

This service is provided as a supplement to face-to-face tutoring, but does not take the place of a live tutoring session. It is a convenience for those who cannot make it to campus for some reason but who may have a quick question for one of our tutors.

If we do not have a tutor available at the time your email is received at the Center we will reply to your request as soon as one becomes available. We will try but cannot guarantee to respond to your e-mail within 24 hours. We do not access e-mail on weekends, vacation breaks or in the summer. Check the college schedule for the current dates.

How Does E-mail Tutoring Work?


You must read the information on "How does E-mail Tutoring work?" BEFORE you
can E-mail your questions to our tutors.

How Does This Process Work?

1. A) By clicking your mouse on the "E-Mail Your Question to a Tutor!!" link below, you will link to the Student Agreement page. Please read "The Tutee's Agreement" before you click the E-mail button to send your e-mail us.

B) Select either "English" or "Math" the subject heading line of the e-mail message you are creating put "Math," or "English" and include your course number. As an example, type in "Math 150B". This is mandatory so that the tutor can log your course number into the College's TimeKeeper system. Also, this enables us to quickly direct your question to the appropriate tutor.

C) Next type in your current student permanent number in the field provided. We cannot tutor you without this number. This will also be logged into the College TimeKeeper system.

D) In the field provided for your question, type in your question. Try to be as brief as possible, providing an example if the question seems complicated.

E) If it is a question that we cannot answer, we will e-mail you the reason why.

F) If the tutor is checking e-mail when you send your question, s/he may be able to answer you at that time. You may ask follow-up questions. If the tutor is not at the computer when you send your e-mail, s/he will reply to you later that day.

G) Please include your entire question (and any written paragraphs) in the e-mail form. The form is NOT set up to send an attachment.

2. If a tutor is out due to sickness or an emergency, we may not be able to answer your question until the next day. Thank you for your patience as we try to do our best to serve you. Thank you for using our e-mail tutoring service! Come back soon and tell a friend about us!
