The Virtual MLC

The Virtual MLC provides tutoring services for various 100, 200, and 300 level mathematics courses. We do not have drop-in hours and instead you must schedule an appointment with a tutor. Below you will find the details about the specific courses that you can get help with and the names and available times of the tutors.

How to schedule an appointment

  1. Review the courses and available tutors below
  2. Go to geneseo.campus.eab.com

  4. In the drop-down menu, select "Academic Support", and the type of service is "Tutoring".
  5. In the next drop-down menu, select "Math Learning Center".
  6. You may only book a half-hour appointment.
  7. As your appointment time approaches, you should expect an email from the tutor with a link for the meeting and any other necessary details.

  3. Have specific questions ready.
  4. Focus on the method, not merely the answers.
  5. Be an ACTIVE learner.

  8. Review each problem after you finish.
