  2. As you read the Agreement • Be sure to make a note if there is something that needs further explanation. • Follow-up with a visit to the Tutor Coordinator to clarify any questions you might have and fill out a questionnaire.

  3. SSS Tutorial Agreement Student tutorials will be scheduled according to available days and times, student needs, and tutor credentials. The Tutor Coordinator makes this schedule.Any and all changes necessary for the established schedules (increases or decreases in service, changes in date or time, changes in tutor or subject) will be discussed and confirmed with TC or an SSS staff member in her absence.All tutorial sessions are mandatory and are to be met on time and held on campus only.

  4. Cancellations should be made as soon as possible. Three (3) cancellations will result in suspension from the entire tutoring schedule. i.e. Renee is being tutored for ENG111 and MAT070 by 2 different tutors and cancelled once for ENG and twice for MAT. Renee will be suspended from both schedules. Students who do not call the Tutor Coordinator and their tutor prior to their session will be considered a NO SHOW. Two (2) NO SHOWS will result in suspension from the tutoring schedule until you can discuss this with the TC. Your tutor will refer you to the Tutor Coordinator to discuss your “NO SHOWS”.*The Reinstatement Process will be explained and a copy will be provided for you.Tutors are assigned to help students learn subjects better and to be mentors for students. They are NOT to do students’ homework or other work for them.

  5. I will provide my tutor with a syllabus, schedule of exams and assignments. I will do my homework as best I can prior to the tutorial session and be prepared with questions for my tutor so he/she can assist me. I will not compromise my tutorial by asking for help in a different subject tutored by a different tutor. Ex. If I am in a MAT070 tutorial, I will not ask for help in CIS110 unless I am being tutored for both courses by the same tutor. If this is the case the tutor would document the amount of time spent with each course.

  6. Contact my tutor and Tutor Coordinator (and/or an SSS staff member) by phone or in person if I cannot attend my scheduled session. Only 3 cancellations of sessions will be allowed due to “No Work” during the semester unless prior approval with the TC or (in her absence an SSS staff member will assist you.) **If you drop a class or will no longer need a tutor, please be considerate and let the Advisor and the Tutor Coordinator know as soon as possible. Another student may be waiting for a tutoring slot.

  7. Reinstatement Students that are suspended from the tutoring schedule will only be reinstated once per semester due to either no-shows or cancellations.In order to receive additional tutorial services, students must complete the reinstatement process.Chronic offenders (students previously reinstated two or more times from semester to semester) may be suspended from tutoring privileges for the semester.

  8. Reinstatement Process In order to be reinstated to the SSS tutorial schedule, you must agree to: Submit a letter to the Tutor Coordinator explaining your absences and why you should be reinstated.Participate in a conference with the Tutor CoordinatorThe Tutor Coordinator will decide at the time of the conference whether you are eligible for reinstatement . You will be notified as soon as possible about the out-come.There are two types of absences, an excused absence and an unexcused absence. An excused absence is one in whichyou contact the TC and the tutor in advance of your absence. An unexcused absence is a “NO SHOW” or an absence in which you did not contact the TC or the tutor of your absence.

  9. Final Note A copy of the Tutorial Agreement is posted in each tutorial lab.Remember you will need to complete the questionnaireat the end of the workshop. You will need to sign the top and bottom of the Tutorial Agreement. At the top of the agreement please provide your ID#.If you have questions or concerns, please stop by to see me or call 919-209-2031.Thank you and I hope to see you soon!Brenda Peedin, Tutor CoordinatorSSS/TRiO
