Have you ever had a tutor call to check on your academic progress or call just to say hello and check on how things are going on your academic journey?
Did you know tutors work collaboratively with FTCC instructors to encourage students’ academic success?
Tutors at FTCC’s Student Learning Center do all that and more. The SLC offers one-on-one academic tutoring, computer access, and study assistance at no cost to students during normal day and evening class hours. Students can stop by at any time for writing, math or computer assistance.
Tutors at the Student Learning Center can help with a variety of subject areas. In addition to one-on-one tutoring, the SLC provides NetTutor Online Tutoring Service for students, a service available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
The SLC instructors realize students learn differently, and they carefully dissect the unique challenges faced by students each semester. At the SLC, students have access to a welcoming atmosphere that’s conducive to learning with comfortable seating, computers, laptops, and group instruction rooms. Additionally, the SLC has mobile whiteboards and whiteboard tables to promote interactive learning. Students can also use the SLC as a place to study between or after classes.
FTCC Student Delores Miller uses the Student Learning Center for additional academic support: “Since returning to school, I began using the Student Learning Center and the Math Lab for help with my classes. Both centers have helped me become a better student, and I cannot express how grateful I am for the help I receive. They have given me their time and patience and taught me whenever I've had something I could not understand. Thank you to Mr. Harvey, Mrs. Harris, Dr. Campbell, Mrs. Diaz, and Mr. Conklin for all their help.”
FTCC Student Juanita Campbell considers the Student Learning Center her second home: “My experience in the Student Learning Center has been great! Everyone who works in the Learning Center has a lot of patience with each student. My grades stay up because of the help I receive from the center. I can go there anytime and feel comfortable; the operating hours are great. I love that they know all the students by name; the staff is always friendly and knowledgeable about my class subjects. My experience with all the staff has been fantastic. I call the center my second home from home. You can get individualized one-on-one tutoring or just come to work on your own.”
