Services
University Tutoring Services is a university-funded tutoring program that provides free online and group tutoring to any student enrolled at ETSU. Online tutoring takes place within the framework of ETSU’s
D2L (Desire 2 Learn) system. Group Tutoring takes place at various times and in various campus locations. UTS also offers an online Tutor Referral Post. This site allows students who want to be a
private, self-employed, one-on-one tutor a place to post their contact information. Alternately, students who need a one-on-one tutor may browse the available information or post a request. UTS suggests that students who use this service meet with the tutor at a public campus location (e.g. Sherrod Library) during regular hours. We also suggest that the tutor provide credentials, such as a current transcript with references, to the prospective tutee. Pay rates must be arranged between the tutor/tutee. UTS offers the Tutor Referral Site as a courtesy to ETSU students and does not endorse or take responsibility for any tutor who posts their information on the site
Tutoring Focus
UTS's primary focus is to help students succeed with core courses. Core courses are classes that all undergraduates are expected to complete, regardless of major or minor areas of study. Core course (aka General Education) requirements are listed in the ETSU Catalog.
Unfortunately UTS is not able to provide tutoring for all courses listed as electives to fill the core course requirements. However, we do feel that we provide help with those courses in which students characteristically need the most support. Check the Courses Tutored link on the main homepage to see a list of current offerings.
