Peer Tutoring Services
Peer Tutoring Program
Saint Michael鈥檚 College offers FREE academic assistance for select courses including Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Accounting, and more! Our peer tutors are carefully selected by faculty to meet your academic needs.
The first thing students should do if they鈥檙e experiencing difficulty in a course is speak with the professor outside of class. No one knows the material in a particular course or how to teach it better than the professor, so always start there.
Sometimes, students who are working closely with their professor benefit from additional mentoring that another student can provide. In some departments鈥攆or example, math and chemistry鈥 the demand for extra help is high, and we鈥檝e attached one or more tutors for many of these courses. These 鈥淐ourse Tutors鈥 offer weekly opportunities for students to ask questions and review material in individual or small group settings.
Here are the instructions on how to view and schedule an appointment via WC Online. Please Note: All “attached” tutoring appointments must be made online.
St. Mikes additionally offers individual tutoring for select courses.
To request an individual tutor, please email Dina Alsaffar at dalsaffar@smcvt.edu.
*Please note that our tutors are students just like you鈥攖hey are not experts in the field nor do they always have the answers to all of your questions. This is why it is important you check in with your professors first. Additionally, just as we expect our tutors to be respectful and responsible towards their tutees, we ask the same of you while using our tutoring services.
