FVCC Tutor Program

What is Tutoring?

Tutoring is academic assistance to students having difficulty in a specific course.  It is administered most often by other students who have already successfully completed that course. Tutors may also be former students or professionals in the community. Tutors meet one-on-one with students for up to three hours a week per subject.
