The Tiger Learning Center offers a variety of tutoring and study services. We are excited to now offer both in-person and virtual tutoring through 3 options:
In-person Tutoring
Come to the Tiger Learning Center in the Library basement, Monday to Thursday between 1-9 PM to work with a tutor in person.
Virtual Live Tutoring
The Tiger Learning Center will provide live online tutoring through Zoom, a videoconferencing tool. Zoom tutoring is available by appointment.
Email TLC@cowley.edu to set up a Zoom meeting during our regular hours and we will send you a Zoom link. Be sure to include the subject with which you need assistance.
When you join the room, you can discuss your assignment and get advice from all your favorite tutors using audio, video, and/or chat through your device. You can share your screen with the tutor as you work and still get the same type of tutoring you typically would in the Tiger Learning Center, just through the computer. You may access Zoom from your computer, tablet, or phone.
Email Feedback
For Composition I and Composition II assignments, the Tiger Learning Center will provide feedback on writing assignments through email. To receive feedback, email a Word document of your work to TLC@cowley.edu with the following pieces of information:
- Your name, ID number, and the course
- The assignment directions and the due date
- An explanation of the specific areas of writing where you would like assistance
Monday through Thursday, we will return a copy of your assignment with our comments to you in a timely manner. Make sure to give yourself enough time to get feedback before the due date and remember that we do not monitor email when we are closed. Keep in mind that we are not an editing service and will not fix all your mistakes. Instead, we will provide advice and resources to help you revise the paper on your own, just like we would in a live tutoring session.
