Content-Area Tutoring

Content tutors help students understand course concepts primarily in GDR courses in Biology, Chemistry, Math, Natural Resources, and Foreign Languages.

The Content Area Tutoring program offers Group and One-on-One Tutoring

Group Tutoring

Weekly discussion of course material and structured practice promoting a greater understanding of concepts. Facilitated by a peer tutor who has successfully completed the course. Groups start meeting during week three of the semester.

• Weekly 50-minute sessions.

• Attendance is flexible, although regular attendance is encouraged for greatest benefit.

• Some groups are small (5 students), others are larger (up to 15 students).

• Free for UWSP students who are enrolled in Student Support Services, Multicultural Affairs, or who are enrolled with Disability Services.

• Students not enrolled in the support services above pay only $10 per semester for as many groups as desired. Fee is billed to student account.

• There is no new enrollment in group tutoring during the last two weeks of the semester. Groups do not meet during finals week.

• See schedule and sign up on-line.

One-on-one Tutoring

• Attendance is required at each meeting.

• Free for students enrolled in Student Support Services and Multicultural Affairs. Some financial assistance may be available for students enrolled with Disability Services (see program coordinator).

• Students not enrolled in the support services above pay $8.50 per session (5 sessions minimum required). Fee is billed to student account.

• There is no new enrollment in one-on-one tutoring during the last two weeks of the semester. There is no tutoring during finals week.

Content tutors are outstanding undergraduates recommended by UWSP faculty. Tutors help students understand course material, review for tests, and develop study skills. They bring experience, expertise and enthusiasm to group discussions and one-on-one tutoring.
