Simmons Student Offers Info on Tutoring

Simmons School of Management student Noelle San Jose has posted on the Simmons blog information about the tutoring opportunities for business students.

“When I saw that my first semester of business school included “Financial Reporting and Analysis,” a required course for the MBA program, I was a bit concerned about how challenging it would be. Having earned my degree in comparative literature (years ago), it’s been a while since I’ve taken a math-related course, and honestly, numbers isn’t my strongest suit,” San Jose wrote. “Luckily for us though, as Simmons students we’re able to seek the assistance of Simmons Tutorial Services!”

The Tutoring Center at Simmons is located on the first floor of the Simmons Library. The tutoring center offers one-on-one tutoring as well as group sessions. The groups are reserved ahead of time using an online schedule, with a limit of up to 2-hours per week.

“This came in handy when I attempted to complete my homework but couldn’t interpret my pre-spring break notes from class. I tried retracing my steps from the in-class handout, but just couldn’t figure it out,” said San Jose. “Instead of tearing anymore of my hair out, I went online and signed up for a tutoring session. The registration process for the tutoring center is as easy as it is for any other website: enter your email address, create your password, and click on the confirmation link via email. Once registered, I found the appropriate tutor listed under the drop down menu of courses.”

For those who need assistance with writing, the Writing Center has a similar online system for booking appointments.

“It’s never too late, or too early, to seek help with classes,” said San Jose. “Whether you get that help from your study group, professor, tutor, or all of them, knowing that help is just a click away is a great comfort.”
