Summary

During the 2016-2017 academic year, there were 22 part-time instructors serving as tutors. Since its inception, the tutor service has been managed by a subcommittee of full-time associate and assistant professors who oversee scheduling, bookings and data collection on how the service is used. Tutor services are available from 9:00 to 17:00 on weekdays. Each tutor is responsible for two, 50-minute tutorial periods each week. There are three ‘appointments’ during one tutor period, and in the 2016 fall semester, there were 141 appointment slots available per week. Students can reserve appointments by signing up directly, or be referred to the tutor service by their teachers. The tutor service is promoted to students as an opportunity to receive support for: review of exams/quizzes, presentation practice, TOEIC preparation, textbook support, extensive reading support, Blackboard® instruction, grammar study, listening and speaking practice, and e-learning support.
