Tutoring might sound like an elementary term, but even college students need academic support. A wide variety of free, subject-specific online tutoring resources is available to your student if they need help. Maybe they’re even thinking of being a tutor or mentor themselves?
Below is a list of just some of our tutoring resources. If your student is looking for additional academic support, their instructors and advisers are always available to talk.
The Writing Center
The Writing Center offers free help to students with writing assignments for any class and welcomes writers of all skill levels.
Peer tutors work with students to develop skills, strategies and confidence to improve their writing.
Tutoring is free and confidential.
To schedule an appointment, your student can visit The Writing Center's scheduling page.
Math Teaching and Learning Center
The Math TLC is where your student can learn basic math skills. Teachers start daily classroom sessions with a short lect ure, then students begin online homework assignments with help from teachers and specially trained peer tutors.
The Math Tutor Lab serves a variety of math courses, and tutors do their best to help every student. Tutoring is available online. If your student is seeking help with math, they can view the tutoring schedule to contact an available tutor.
Additional online subject-specific tutoring resources in biology, business, chemistry, computer-aided drafting, computer science, economics, physics and psychology are available in StoutCloud.
Mentoring Program

If your sophomore, junior, or senior is passionate about helping others learn how to navigate campus and college life, encourage them to volunteer as a peer mentor.
