你的员工是谁??

Tutors are current St. 爱德华的 students who have excelled in math courses and have been recommended by math faculty. Ms. Cicciarelli also tutors in the lab eight hours a week. 

It’s my first time going to the 数学实验室. What should I expect?

The 数学实验室 is a relaxed space to work on math. 当你走进来, sign in on the computer with your student ID number and then find a seat at the table marked for your course. A tutor will check in with you shortly. If a tutor looks available, please let them know when you are ready for help. All tutors wear a name tag while working.

What should I bring with me and how do I get help?

Please bring your class notes with you to the 数学实验室. We have a copy of each textbook in the lab for students to use while in the lab. Tutors often check in with students in the lab to see if they need any help, but please let a tutor know if you are waiting to receive help. 

What can I expect from a tutor?

You can expect a tutor to ask you what you have already attempted on a question. They may inquire where the material is located in your notes. Our goal is to help you become a more independent learner, so please come prepared to invest your time and energy in fostering new and improved skills. Tutors cannot complete homework assignments for you and are not allowed to check work that will be graded. 

When I came to the 数学实验室, it was so busy I couldn’t get the help I needed. Is there a better time to come?

The 数学实验室 can get very busy on exam days and when course assignments are due. Typically, Mondays and Wednesdays are the least busy days. It’s a good idea to start assignments with plenty of time in advance of a due date and to visit our lab far in advance of an exam.

I’m frustrated that the tutor I asked did not give the final answer to my math problem. Why didn’t they help me?

Our tutors are trained in helping you develop responsibility of your own learning so you can approach many math problems on your own in the future. Tutors are specifically instructed not to work homework problems for students and to involve students in the process. 

If you feel that a tutor did not adequately check back in with you after providing initial assistance, 请他们. Tutors multi-task helping students in the lab in order to decrease wait time.

If you have any concerns about a tutor or your tutoring experience, please contact the 数学实验室 director, Ms. Cicciarelli, or you may or leave 匿名的反馈.
