Tutors

Tutors are Hamline students who have been recommended by faculty for their knowledge of the subject. They participate in regular training activities to learn how to provide well-informed, efficient tutoring. Their goal is to share with you the methods that have helped them succeed academically: careful reading, thorough note-taking, disciplined attention in lectures, and many subject-specific skills.

How to get the most out of tutoring

  • Use your tutor as just one of your academic resources. Your tutor cannot replace insights a professor can provide during office hours, the benefits of the Writing and Communication Center and CASA’s other academic resources, or your own hard work.
  • Be aware that tutoring does not work as a “quick fix” and that your tutor will not complete your work for you.
  • Come early in the term and consider working regularly with a tutor.
  • Come prepared. Bring your textbook, assignment sheets, class notes, returned quizzes and exams, and any other materials you might need. Try to finish all assigned readings and write down questions for your tutor.
  • Respect your tutor’s time by being punctual or canceling appointments in advance.
