The Tutoring Center provides a variety of opportunities for students to achieve academic success. The services are free-of-charge and open to all Canisius students. Individual tutoring services allow students to receive one-on-one academic assistance from peer and adjunct professor tutors. Tutors are available in the majority of academic disciplines and employ various academic strategies to help address individual student needs.
The Tutoring Center is an integral part of Student Academic Support Services (SASS). Other important components of this program are:
Supplemental Instruction (SI) is an academic assistance program that utilizes peer-assisted study sessions. 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. The sessions are facilitated by SI leaders, students who have previously done well in the course and who attend classes, understand the material and act as a guide through the coursework.
The Study Center Program (OM318) is open to all students. Study Center is an opportunity for students to focus on their academic work in a quiet environment. Tutors are available to answer questions and provide academic support.
Workshops for Life is a series of weekly workshops designed to assist students in becoming better and more efficient learners. For a schedule of topics offered click here. (Workshop Schedule)
