Course Content: These appointments are class specific, meaning that the tutor has taken this class before and can assist you with homework review, concept reinforcement, study guides, test review, assignment clarification, and more. If you need assistance with any aspect of your course, you will generally choose this.
Public Speaking/Presentation Help: Offered for the first time last semester, these appointments are aimed at assisting you with speaking to groups. Our tutors can give you feedback on volume control, enunciation, tone, speed, organization/structure, and nonverbal communication. If you're concerned with how your presentation will go and wish to preview it with a knowledgeable, nonjudgemental tutor, please choose this!
Research Tutoring: A sub-group of tutors have been specially trained by the Library's research librarians to assist students with aspects of their research projects. From figuring out your research question, to navigating the various databases in search of materials, to the vetting of said sources, research tutors are here to help you!
Study Skills: These appointments are not class specific, meaning you can schedule this kind of appointment with any of our tutors! These appointments can vary from discussing time management tools, tips, and tricks, to having a tutor quiz you with your own study materials, to having assistance utilizing online studying software (ex. Quizlet), to the occasional body doubling. All of our tutors have developed their own studying style and are happy to offer whatever assistance they can to their peers!
Writing Tutoring: By far, one of our most popular types of appointments! All of our writing tutors have been trained to assist at any stage of the writing process. From brainstorming, to structural overhauls, to grammar and citation overviews, writing tutors are here to help you craft the best version of your essay or short-answer assignments. If you have a written assignment, don't hesitate to tap into our wealth of writing knowledge!
Thank you for your interest in using our Learning Center! Here are some things that will help you have a successful Learning Center session with any of our tutors:
Come prepared with all your class materials, including textbook, notes, completed homework assignments, returned tests or essays, etc. Your tutor is excited to help you think through these materials differently and learn to engage with them effectively.
Attend your classes and complete assignments. Tutors are supplements to your time in the classroom, and they cannot teach material you missed. They also cannot complete your assignments for you. If you have questions about a homework assignment, a tutor can help you work through the concept with the similar problem, but we cannot do the homework for you.
Come with an open mind and work towards a growth mindset. Your tutor may have ideas for your success that you hadn’t considered before. We share ideas with you because we believe that you can become an even better student in every subject. We know we become better all the time by listening to and trying the ideas of others. Believe with us.
Try something new, especially something your tutor has suggested for you. Any time spent talking about the content of your coursework with a tutor or peer is beneficial time; however, tutors have been specifically trained to help you learn more efficiently. Their suggestions could be game-changers for you, but only if you implement them.
Provide feedback to the Learning Center administration. We hope everything goes well for you every time you visit. If you have any suggestions or concerns, please bring those to the attention of the director and tutoring coordinator by emailing learningcenter@meredith.edu.

Privacy - The Learning Center administration will contact your professor to let them know that you visited the Learning Center if you tell your tutor you would like for them to do so.
