Our Mission
The mission of Tutoring Services of the Mathematics Department is to assist Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s undergraduate students in developing content-appropriate study strategies and content knowledge for all first- and second-year mathematics courses, through Calculus II. Through drop-in tutoring staffed by undergraduate and graduate students who are trained in specific math-course content, we guide undergraduate students at Â鶹ÊÓƵ to become confident mathematics students who are independent, self-regulated learners.
Values
Accountability – Each individual engaged in student support is responsible for their assignments and will do their job to the best of their abilities.
Respect - We respect students, instructors, and the people around us. We value the abilities of all students, recognizing that we all come from different mathematical backgrounds.
Support - We provide an open, accessible, and supportive learning environment for students.
Communication - We communicate effectively with students and co-workers, and we help students learn to communicate mathematics effectively.
Mastery - We continue to learn and work toward content mastery and to improve our student support skills.
Excellence - We recognize that learning mathematics is hard work, but that persistence pays dividends. There are no shortcuts.
Growth Mindset - We reject the notion that some people are just “not good at math.”
