Our Mission
The Student Success Center supports classroom instruction by helping students at all levels to become better learners, and to gain the confidence and skills to achieve their greatest possible academic success.
We Provide
- Individual, group, and online tutoring in a variety of subjects
- Workshops on college and life skills, and discipline-specific topics, such as listening, speaking, reading, writing, grammar, math and science
- Tutor training courses
Our Goal
After participating in Student Success Center programs for an appropriate amount of time, and within the context of each student's individual needs, students will express a more positive attitude toward the subject they are studying, use effective learning skills, and improve their academic performance.
