Additional Tutoring Services: NetTutor

For hours when the STEM Center, Writing & Language Center, and Pass the Torch are closed, you can get additional online tutoring support from NetTutor, a 24/7 online tutoring service. Tutors do not give out answers and do not fix papers, instead, they help you to better understand the material.

You can access NetTutor for free anytime from the navigation bar at the left in your Canvas courses. If NetTutor doesn't show in the course navigation list, you can check with your instructor to see if they might consider adding it, or you can access it from the Tutoring Welcome page. Once there, select the "NetTutor" link in the course navigation bar.
