How to Use the Science Tutoring Lab
- Have your textbook, notes, and other materials with you when you come to tutoring

Role of the Tutors
Tutors will ask guiding questions and talk with you about your thought process. Remember, tutors aren't there to just give you answers, they want to teach students skills they can apply to their current assignment and future proficiency. Even if they aren't experts in your subject, they will look at your problem and try to help you figure it out. We can't guarantee we can help with every problem, but we will try!l!
