Title: Tutor and/or Embedded Tutor

Department: Academic Affairs—Tutoring Center

Tutors help students improve academic performance and achieve educational goals. They offer guidance and support in one or more subject areas: mathematics, biological sciences, business, physical sciences, and technologies. Tutor responsibilities include developing study skills, time‑management strategies, and other techniques that contribute to academic success. Embedded tutors support specific courses (e.g., Math 154, Math 161) during the class period to assist students both inside and outside the classroom.

Tutors may work with students individually or in groups, customizing support to meet unique needs. Responsibilities typically include helping students comprehend complex concepts, offering guidance on assignments, projects, and homework, fostering confidence, and assisting with task prioritization, exam preparation, and goal setting. Tutors will complete training and engage in ongoing professional development.
