About the Math Learning Center (MLC)

The MLC, located in South Hall 332, offers tutoring for 100- and 200-level mathematics courses FOR FREE. Students in these classes may drop in to meet with a tutor during any open hour.

MLC tutors can answer questions you may have about homework, help you understand general concepts in your course, and help focus you to prepare for an upcoming assessment. Tutors will not give you answers, rather they will help you discover the answers for yourself.

The MLC is open the following hours:

  • Mondays  10:30-5:00
  • Tuesdays  9:30-5:30
  • Wednesdays  10:30-5:00
  • Thursdays  10:00-5:00
  • Fridays  10:30-2:00

The MLC will be closed on April 8 so that our tutors may participate in the activities around the Eclipse.

Make sure to check in using the posted QR code each time you visit the MLC!

Ways to be a Good Tutee

  1. Go to class: take GOOD notes.
  2. Come prepared: look at your assignment BEFORE coming to the MLC.
  3. Have specific questions ready.
  4. Focus on the method, not merely the answers. Tutors will not give you the answers.
  5. Be an ACTIVE learner. If you don't understand something, please say so.
  6. Have a growth mindset - you don't understand it YET.
  7. Be understanding: tutors are students too.
  8. Review each problem after you finish.
