Peer Tutoring @ Thomas College

Thomas College provides peer tutoring at no cost to current students in a variety of subjects, including accounting, computer science, economics, finance, history, management, marketing, math, psychology, science, sociology, and writing.

Peer Tutors are carefully selected and trained to provide student-centered assistance to students in individual and small-group tutoring sessions. Peer Tutors focus on academic skills and goal-setting to facilitate active learning. Our program is nationally certified by the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA). For further information about the program, please email [email protected].

Drop-In Hours

All drop-in hours are held in the Student Success Center (AL-112), though Peer Tutors are also available on Microsoft Teams. To join a tutor virtually during their drop-in hours, open Microsoft Teams and send them a message.

Students do not need to make an appointment ahead of time to visit a tutor during drop-in hours.

If the listed drop-in hours do not work for your schedule, the tutors can be reached via email to arrange an outside appointment time. Tutors will reply to appointment requests within 24 hours. See below for more information about individual tutors’ drop-in hours and contact email addresses.
