Welcome to Tutoring at TJ's
We are your fellow students--people in your dorms, your classes, eating beside you in the Campus Center. Recommended by our professors, we tutor because we have done well in courses you are now taking, and more importantly, we enjoy helping you discover what you are already doing well and where you might want to make adjustments. We take one-credit training courses, and we are paid for the time we spend working with you.
Why come to tutoring? For many reasons...(see the Why Come page for more!) We can help you realize what you already know, model new ways of learning, and monitor your progress over several sessions--and help you get ready to go to the professor with specific questions. |

Tutoring @ TJ's Mission Statement
crafted over several staff meetings in spring semester 2002
The mission of the Rollins College peer tutoring program is to help our fellow students find more effective strategies to improve their learning. In a relaxed atmosphere, our individual and group tutoring session lead to a deeper understanding of the concepts learned in the classroom. We tailor activities to student clients' learning needs and styles, empowering them to take responsibility for both their successes and their failures. We hope that as our clients' skills increase, so will their confidence and their ability to learn independently. |

The mission of our home: TJ's, the Student Resource Center
The Thomas P. Johnson Student Resource Center challenges students to take responsibility for their own learning and provides tools and feedback to help them develop learning strategies to achieve academic success. Programs foster individual development by emphasizing active learning, realistic self-appraisal, and thoughtful goal setting. |
