Tutoring Services

Who Are We?

Student Success Center Tutorial service was established in the Fall of 2022. We developed two models of academic support: Tutoring and Supplemental Instruction. Our Tutors and Supplemental Instruction Leaders have been trained in best practices, including study skills, learning strategies, and collaborative learning techniques. The Student Success Center is seeking Level 1 certification through the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) and accreditation of its Supplemental Instruction (SI) Program through The International Center for Supplemental Instruction.

We are dedicated to guiding each student through difficult material — from understanding big concepts to developing learning strategies and tools so you can retain information and solve problems on your own. Call us for help scheduling appointments at 301-832-0594 or sign up for a session.

Certification

The tutoring program in the Student Success Center has International TUTOR Training Program Certification (ITTPC) through the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA). Since 1989, over 1,000 college tutor training programs around the globe have received ITTPC at one or more Levels. These programs have recognized thousands as Certified Tutors, Certified Advanced Tutors, or Certified Master Tutors.

SSC Tutoring Instructions, Information & Resources

  • Scheduling Appointments

    Schedule 30-minute to 60-minute, one-on-one consultations through Wconline. You must sign up at least 24 hours before the appointment time. While we offer walk in/drop-in appointments, we highly recommend you schedule your services to guarantee an appointment.

    Once you’ve scheduled your appointment, you will receive a confirmation email. Be sure to follow the instructions in the appointment window on the specific location of your service (online link, satellite location in the College of Business or Computer Science Building, or in our central location in the Thurgood Marshall Library).

    To ensure the quality of our tutoring, all online appointments will be recorded by the tutor.

    For questions about making appointments or understanding how we use Wconline for tutoring, please contact us at (301) 832-0594 or studentsuccesscenter@bowiestate.edu.

    Missing Appointments

    Students may miss a total of 3 scheduled appointment hours per semester without being penalized. After a student misses 3 scheduled appointments, they will be unable to schedule tutoring appointments for the remainder of the semester. However, they will still be able to work with us on a drop-in basis.

    Canceling Appointments

    If students need to cancel an appointment, we ask that they do so at least 3 hours prior to the scheduled appointment time. If the appointment is canceled with less than 3 hours notice, it will be considered a missed appointment and follow our missed appointment policy.
