Tutorial Services - Moved to the Library/LRC 214 (Building A)
| The Tutorial
Center provides
students with
qualified student
tutors in various
academic areas.
Tutors support
a student's
regular
instructional
program through
individual and
small group
tutoring. Tutorial assistance provides support, motivation, and encouragement. These services are FREE to all Hartnell College students. To sign up for tutorial services, a student must complete an Application for Tutorial Assistance that is available at the Tutorial Sign-in Desk or can be download below. The back (or second page) can be completed by veiwing the "Tutorial Center Orientation" PowerPoint below. Next, a signature is needed on the front of the application from your instructor or counselor. When you bring your completed application to the Tutorial Center, a tutor will assist you in enrolling in the supervised tutoring course (INS 301). Once this is completed, you can use any of our services for the entire semester! We're open Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays 9:00am-5:00pm, and Fridays 9:00am-2:00pm (during the summer session the center is open Monday - Thursday 9:00am-5:00pm, Fridays until 4:00pm).

Math and Chemistry Academies Lifeline Tutoring
| The Hartnell College Math Academy and Chemistry Academy are held each summer and winter during the semester break.
Only the very best math and chemistry tutors are selected to work with the Academies. These same tutor continue to support
Academy students during the semester that follows each Academy, their Lifeline semester. Math Academy students often test into higher
levels of math and are more likely to suceed than if they had not attended the Academy and taken a lower math course. The Chemistry Academy prepares
students, often unfamiliar and unprepared for the sciences, for chemistry 22.
Academy students can register online and tutors are selected near the end of the fall and spring semesters. |
English Conversation Groups
| Students interested in practicing their English are welcome to join one of our conversation groups. Each group meets at least once a week for 50 minutes. Group leaders encourage students to join discussions on a variety of topics. Our conversation groups give students an excellent opportunity to supplement their classroom learning. |
