PLTC tutors are Wellesley students who have demonstrated academic excellence in their chosen departments.
All academic support programs are peer-led and peer facilitated with extensive training conducted by the PLTC. There are no “out-of-pocket” costs to Wellesley students who participate in PLTC programs.
The following types of subject tutoring are currently offered:
-
Café Tutoring – Set hours in which one or more tutors are available to help with material from any course within the discipline. These are drop-in style hours.
-
Attached Tutoring – Regularly scheduled tutor office hours in support of a specific course and/or section. No appointment is necessary.
-
Embedded Tutoring – In-class assistance tied to a specific course/section/professor with additional scheduled office hours outside of class.
-
Assigned (Individual) Tutoring** – One-on-one, individual meetings that require faculty and PLTC approval. Unlike other types of tutoring, these sessions have limited availability.
**Individual tutors must be requested in advance via the Assigned Tutor Request Form.
