Tutoring Session Questions

You can do this yourself by clicking on your appointment slot; a pop-up window will then appear, and you can click on the “Cancel This Appointment” box at the bottom.
Back-to-back appointments are allowed when you want a full hour appointment with a tutor. In most cases, most tutoring session do not last more than 30 minutes.
It’s whatever you prefer. When you set up your appointment you can select the tutor you wish to work with, as long as it works for your and the tutor’s schedule.

We prefer the hardcopy. It makes the session run smoother.
If you have a prompt from the instructor stating you are allowed to use outside resources, then we can help.
