Peer Tutoring

The Language and Culture Studies program supports a peer tutoring service for students who feel the need for some help or additional practice. Have questions? Call (717) 871-7384 or email languages@millersville.edu.

If You Need A Tutor

If you would like to be assigned a tutor, go to the English and World Languages office (McComsey 241).  An upper-level student will be assigned to you. The tutor is paid by the University for this work; the service is free to the tutee. Please be conscientious about meeting times, notifying the Tutoring Coordinator at 717-871-7384 if you are unable to attend a session or if you are going to be late. Failure to attend 2 tutoring sessions without a valid excuse will result in automatic loss of tutoring privileges. All tutoring sessions are held on campus in the Language and Culture Studies tutoring room.
