Academic help at home through online tutoring

Students can get tutoring help online for all subjects.

Students may go to TCC Blackboard Collaborate to access the link tutoring@tcc. This page will inform students about the lab hours and provide a range of subjects to choose from —business, math, science, languages and more. Click on the learning centers from the campus of your choice, enroll and enter.

“When you first join the waiting room there is little to no wait time before a tutor comes to help,” South student Yulonda Smith said. “The tutors use the computer whiteboard to answer questions precisely with detailed explanations.”

If students need assistance when it comes to writing essays, they will need to schedule an appointment beforehand. Students will need to send an email to the leaders with their name, student ID number, day and time of the appointment request, subject, the type of paper students are working on, assignment due date, phone number and email. 

Students can choose if they would like the session to be live or via email. Students can also request a drop-in through TutorTrac. This brief tutoring session is 15-20 minutes.

South Campus Science Instructor Associate Kristina Pham said tutors are ready to help with students’ science needs. “We provide links, model pictures, slide pictures and textbooks to help with reports,” Pham said.
