Seeking a Peer Tutor
We recognize that students may require access to peer tutoring from time to time. Students may self-refer or may be recommended by faculty throughout the academic year.
In either case, students will contact the Student Success Network to establish the parameters for peer tutoring and are expected to commit to a schedule to ensure the best possible outcome.
A maximum of 10 hours in total per semester is available to all full time Michener students. Students who wish to receive more than 10 hours must re-apply/request permission from SSN Staff member.
