In Person Tutoring 

Come to the Math Department tutoring lab (McBryde 136) for help in these courses.

Tutoring hours are Noon - 8pm, Monday through Thursday.

Virtual Tutoring

Students in Emporium Courses  have access to Virtual Tutors through the Practice Problem System. Log into the Practice Problem System, and select a problem to work on. After you have answered the question, you will see a link for "Virtual Tutoring". Clicking this link will notify a tutor that you need assistance. When a tutor is ready, you will get a pop-up to join their tutoring session.

Virtual Tutoring Hours, are the same as the above tutoring, hours. However, in person tutorin is prioritized, so it may not always be available.  

Lab Help (1026 and 1524 ONLY)

There are lab support GTAs available Monday-Friday 4pm-8pm on zoom. The link to the zoom session is on your course Canvas page.  You may not be in your Lab Problems quiz and ask for lab help.  Once you begin that assessment, you must finish it on your own using your own work on the lab and what you have learned doing the lab.

Testing Hours

The Math Emporium Testing Center will be open:

  • Monday-Thursday: 10:00 am - 6:00 pm (must start exam by 4:30 pm)
  • Friday: 10:00 am - 3:00 pm (must start exam by 1:30 pm)

Note that you must start your exam 90 minutes before the Testing Center closes.
