Tutoring for Nursing Classes

Tutoring for Nursing Classes

Currently, we have three nursing tutors that are available for nursing tutoring sessions. As students start requesting sessions, the tutors will designate times for group sessions to accommodate students. Emails for available group sessions will be sent to the class when they are established. We will update this page to show any running group sessions or changes.

 **Students are required to email tutors with specific information they would like to have covered if they plan to attend a session. Make sure you give the tutor topics that are challenging to you, which you would like to have reviewed. Links for group tutoring sessions will be sent to the class through email. 

Students can make a Success Appointment to meet with a tutor to go over study skills, time management, and note-taking. (listed under Success Meeting)

If you are unable to meet for a session, students have access to Brainfuse tutors through their Live Help where Nursing and Allied Health is an available subject. If you are unsure about how to access Brainfuse or if you want to learn more about Brainfuse, please go to this page. 

Please check the Student Success Center's website to schedule an appointment for Math, English/Papers, or you can choose Success to discuss a topic such as time management, learning styles, study skill, or test anxiety.
