  • Our Peer Tutoring Program provides course specific tutoring to multi-ethnic UW-L undergraduate students upon request.

  • Getting Started:

  • Students first contact their instructor, then investigate tutoring offered through the department.

  • If this does not meet their needs, our office will identify a tutor employed by OMSS and work out the necessary arrangements.

  • To request a tutor, stop by OMSS to fill out a request form.

  • Benefits:

  • Tutoring is free to all Multicultural Students   Request Tutor

  • Students receive "course specific" tutoring

  • Tutoring sessions are designed to meet the student's needs with flexible hours and individual or small group session.

  • This service is designed to support and complement tutoring offered by the various departments on campus.

  • NOTE:  The Peer Tutoring program hires qualified students to be tutors (Qualifications include: knowledge of content area, minimum of A/B in courses tutored, reliable, responsible, positive, in Good Academic Standing, and a second semester freshmen or upper classman).

  • Interested individuals should and fill out an application.  Tutoring is a great way for students to share their academic knowledge and skills with a peer. In return, their own personal knowledge of other cultures is enhanced.   Apply to Become a Peer Tutor
