TUTORING AT THE LAC
Build your professional and academic skills while teaching others
Working with LAC students allows you to review fundamental academic skills. By helping students learn, you will develop a more flexible and effective approach to your own reading and writing tasks, as well as add to your repertoire of study skills. Collaboration, active learning, feedback, and reflection are at the core of LAC tutor education. Through varied teaching and learning opportunities, you can become a more effective teacher and communicator.
