Tutoring Center better than ever

Tutoring+Center+better+than+ever

Despite a steady decrease in enrollment students seem to be flocking to the Tutoring Center, most likely to take advantage of the free help it offers.

Nicole Tracey, Director of the Tutoring Center, believes that the numbers have been rising thanks to the new student orientations adding the Tutoring Center on their route, as well as the quality of this special free service offered here at Bucks.

Tracey says “The Tutoring Center is a place for additional support, where students can continue conversations one-on-one that begin in the classroom.”

Students from practically all majors have the chance to work closely with an academic tutor qualified to aid in their specific classwork, with tutors available in 25 subjects.

This free service is not just available for students who are struggling, but rather it is a place to help students build skills, central thinking, and success tools that can be used in all future pursuits.

Andrea Moskowitz, a writing tutor at the Tutoring Center, believes that not enough students know about the Tutoring Center’s existence. Moskowitz remarks, “I think more students know now than a few years ago; however, I believe that many more have no idea we’re here.”

The Tutoring Center here at Bucks has increased drastically with an additional 339 appointments, which is over a 6.5% increase from last fall.

Students who have yet to make a trip over to the Tutoring Center should check it out. There’s always free coffee available to all students who pass through, as well as many free handouts and study guides on grammar rules, MLA writing style, math formulas, and much more.
