How to Make an Appointment with a Tutor
- You request an appointment by either emailing a tutor from the roster below or by emailing Adam Robinson, the tutoring coordinator, at axr500@psu.edu.

Why Tutoring is Beneficial to All Students
All students benefit from tutoring. Our tutors can certainly help when you are struggling with a course. However, we encourage you to make working with a tutor a routine part of your semester even when you are happy with how you are performing in your courses. Tutoring can add variety to your study time, keep you on the right track, and strengthen your performance. Plus, highly effective people use all resources that are available to them, so they can do their best work. And our tutors benefit from the experience too because they strengthen their knowledge and skills through teaching others.
