There
are several excellent sources of free tutoring and academic
assistance available at WSU. Using these services is an important
step toward reaching your academic goals.
Tutoring is offered by several different departments and programs including Tutoring Services, the Math Achievement Center, and the Physics Department. Tutoring is offered on both a drop-in
basis and by arranged one-on-one appointments. To find a tutor, click on TutorTrac--Find a Tutor. Tutoring is cancelled whenever classes are not in session, including finals week.
Supplemental Instruction utilizes peer-assisted study sessions. Supplemental Instruction (SI) sessions
are regularly-scheduled, informal review sessions in which students
compare notes, discuss readings, develop organizational tools, and
predict test items. Students learn how to integrate course
content and study skills while working together under the guidance of a
student who has already excelled in the course. SI is cancelled whenever classes are not in session, including finals week
Student Support Services(SSS) is a federally funded TRIO program that offers additional support
including tutoring, advising, tickets to cultural events, and
leadership opportunities to eligible students. SSS is an
excellent place to start when exploring all of the sources of academic
assistance available to you. You may reach SSS by stopping in
Krueger Library Rm 219 or calling 457-5465.
The Writing Center
offers WSU students free, individualized instruction in all aspects of
writing. The mission of the Writing Center is to help students in all
disciplines use writing as an effective tool for learning,
communication, self-expression, and critical thinking. To this end,
staff in the Writing Center work closely with students, faculty, and
administrators to help students become capable, successful writers.
