Tutoring Services

Do you have a student who...

• would benefit from one-on-one or group content tutoring?
• could use some help navigating your course technology?
• would benefit from time management and organization planning?
• should be connected to additional learning resources? 
• needs additional encouragement to reach their goals?

To refer a student to these services, check the Tutoring Services box in the Retention Alert Form

• Provide drop-in tutoring ‘office hour’, scheduled tutoring appointments, or study groups 

• Monitor and participate in discussion boards and student activities within working hours 

• Assist students in navigating technology for coursework

We are looking for Peer Tutors!

If you have a student in mind, encourage the student to apply using the Student Worker Job Postings under Careers at Kish in the footer of the kish.edu website. Once the application is submitted, the student will be given a recommendation form to pass on to you to fill out and return to HR (no need to write a recommendation letter).
