Drop-In Tutors at Maritime can help with:

  • Clarifying course concepts and working through challenging material
  • Breaking down assignments and identifying next steps
  • Practicing problem-solving strategies
  • Reviewing material and preparing for quizzes and exams
  • Developing effective study strategies and habits
  • Building confidence through collaborative learning

Drop-in tutoring is designed to provide flexible academic support across courses within the listed subject areas. Students may attend as often as they find helpful and do not need to make an appointment in advance.

Tutors support students in developing their own understanding and problem-solving skills. They can help students think through questions, practice concepts, and identify strategies for approaching their coursework, but they do not complete assignments for students or serve as teaching assistants.
