The most helpful thing about SI sessions was finding a new way to study, review, and become more confident and motivated for class.
The tutors here are awesome. They're patient, kind, and help you understand the course material.
I had a great first semester with my tutor. She was very helpful and gave great ideas, advice, we work well together. And she made this a positive experience. I am a freshman, and have definitely improved in my writing so far. Thank you!
When I felt hopeless, the SI Leader really helped me pass this class. I couldn't do it without them. I loved my SI Leader's demeanor. I never felt dumb for asking questions.
I have told everyone in my class about the Tutorial Program! It's a great FREE resource!
This program is very helpful, I will recommend it to my friends and my tutor was amazing -- very helpful with editing my essay. They provided several ideas as to how to strengthen my essay, and feedback on how to change/reword my essay to make it even stronger! Thank you :) <3
