About Tutoring
The Academic Skills Tutoring Center is a free service available to all full-time
and part-time students who are enrolled in remedial and credit bearing courses
from all departments and disciplines. We offer group and walk-in tutoring
in a wide variety of subjects.
Although we offer tutoring for many
different courses, we cannot guarantee that we can find a tutor for every course
or that we will be able to match a student's hours of availability.
Disability Support Services
If you require disability support services or special accommodations, please
contact the FIT-ABLE office at 212-217-4090 or go to room A511A Monday through
Friday 9am-5pm.
Weekly Appointments
During the fall, spring and summer semesters, you may register for an appointment by
filling out an application in A608b. When you come to register, you must
bring a copy of your schedule or course syllabus and know your professor's last
name.
Most tutoring is done in groups of two. You may receive one
hour of tutoring a week in two separate courses. Once you are placed with
a tutor, you will be expected to attend your tutoring sessions throughout the
semester or until you feel confident to work on your own.
Askonline Online Tutoring
Online tutoring is available for certain courses. For further
information about online tutoring, please call the tutoring center at

Walk-In Hours
For students who may not want to attend tutoring on a weekly basis, we offer
walk-ins in the following subjects: computers, CAD for Interior Design, writing, math (including retail
math), patternmaking draping and sewing. In addition, we offer a workshop called, "Let's
Talk English" for ESL students to practice conversational English. No appointment is necessary. The schedule will be posted
in the Academic Skills Center around the third week of the Fall and Spring
semesters.
