Peer AND PROFESSIONAL TUTORING
The mission of Peer Tutoring at ACPHS is to encourage, promote, and foster students’ independent learning by providing peer-led academic assistance for core science and math courses. The program is certified through the College Reading & Learning Association’s (CRLA) International Tutor Training Program.
Peer Tutoring occurs in individual and small group settings to emphasize the rich value of cooperative learning and reinforce time management skills. Tutors are current ACPHS students who have already taken the course, have been approved by a faculty member, and have received tutor training.
Professional Tutors are also available for the core math and science courses offered in the first two years of our programs (e.g. General Biology, General Chemistry, Calculus, etc.).
Types of Tutoring Services
- Drop-In Sessions: Weekly scheduled hours for which no appointment is needed to see a tutor. Simply drop in during a tutor’s weekly shift.
- By-Appointment Sessions: These are pre-scheduled sessions with a tutor.
