Request Tutoring


  • Peer tutoring for a class:

    When a student requests small group peer tutoring for a specific 1000- or 2000-level class they will be assigned a peer tutor when one is available. (Sometimes we are able to hire a tutor if one is not immediately available.) Students assigned a peer tutor will meet for a 50-minute session at the same time each week for the remainder of the semester. Tutoring sessions will consist of one tutor and up to three students in a small group. Whenever possible, the tutor assigned will have had the same professor as the tutees. Attendance is expected, and two no-shows will result in the student losing this appointment. We cannot guarantee that a tutor will be available to fulfill all requests. If your 1000- or 2000-level course is not listed, please email us at slc@oneonta.edu for further information and possible options.


  • Academic Coaching:

    This service is designed to help a student work on reading or study skills (reading comprehension, time management, test taking skills, test anxiety, etc.). Together with the academic coach, the student will identify the areas they wish to address and how many weeks this service will be required. A maximum of 10 hours of coaching will be allowed per student per semester. Attendance is expected, and two no-shows will result in the student losing this appointment.

    The appointments will be held either in person or online based on the needs of the student and availability of the coach.


  • Writing Consultations:

    These are one-time, 30-minute appointments with a peer intern or professional staff member. Students are permitted to sign up for up to two appointments in advance. Students can sign up for two appointments back-to-back, which is helpful for students seeking assistance on longer assignments.

    Once an appointment is scheduled, the student is expected to attend. If the student must cancel, they are required to give 12 hours' notice of a cancellation by email to the writing consultant. Failure to properly cancel will result in the session being marked as a "no-show." Two no-shows will result in the student not being allowed to schedule writing consultation appointments for the remainder of the semester.

    The appointments can be held either in person or online based on the needs of the student.
